Subnautica 2 could become a chilling horror game, if only it would shut up

The original Subnautica was secretly a brilliant horror game, so I've been delighted to discover—as I splash around in the abyss—that Subnautica 2 makes the terrors of the deep a lot more overt, really leaning into the fear of the unknown. I apologise to anyone in Paisley (or elsewhere in the world) who has heard my shrieks over the last week.

Unfortunately, for every nightmarish encounter, harrowing near-death experience or existential crisis, there are frequent moments when the spell is broken. The culprit? Audio logs. So. Many. Audio logs.
