Two questions:
- How long is the campaign if you play normally and explore stuff?
- Does the campaign even have a good story? Or is it just there so you have some string guiding you through the game?

If you don't rush trough it but play at a normal pace you'll get at least 30h out of it imo.
The story is definately there to guide you trough, but it's interesting in it's own right.
The main thing is the gameplay though, the story won't be the reason that keeps you playing - they did a really good job in stringing you along at a proper pacing to keep you exploring places you feel you'd rather not explore.

The exploration in this game is what really pushed me into liking it when it was EA. Now VR seems VERY adecuate, no critical bugs so far and since i stopped playing it months ago i keep seeing so many new things. I cant wait to get home each day so i can play it LOL
Currently scared shitless, i want to get close to the aurora but i know whats there, i dont wanna get close, also the depths, at night, omg. nonononononononon

It's a lot more fun if you follow the story - the first time I played, a bug prevented me from continuing (I couldn't get sulfur - the game just never made any appear) but this time everything works just fine. Very fun, properly paced and lots of stuff to do.

i had some bugs, but i managed to get around them, eventually...
1. falling trough the map...2800 meters?
last save point was 1 hour. so no way im gonna sit there doing nothing..
Solution: enter freecam, go where you supposed to be (use key "4" once to move faster and hold shift) when you are there, press f3 or f8, not shure, look at the cordinates (xyz), now open the console again and type: warp x y z (xyz - the displayed location from the freecam)
puuuuhhhhh, that worked as it should. gotta love that unity engine dev. console. really....
2. on the floating vehicle thingy, where you can make the prawn suite, i stepped on it, looked right side down on the orange air pillow or what it is, one step back and i rocketed into the air for about 600 meters... gladly i did fall into the water...
the second time i wasnt this lucky at all, right back on dat platform just to get me killed 
3. Dont go into small spaces with the seamooth and prawn suite...You will get STUCK 
If you do  just use the warp command mentioned before and all is fine again...
what else did happen......
something is seriously strange with the controlls and or with the TABLET usage...often enough i switched out too fast? and i couldnt move my mouse..Or the tools in my hand wouldnt come up when i was not in the water because teh game thought im still in the prawn suite? at least that is what it sounded like.. And this happens sometiimes in all situations, from using the fabricator and such to getting in and out of vehicles..
Oh, and one thing that kinda blew me was in an cave under water..with an energy shilded door, so theres no water inside.. That was in the lava caves, and when i went in there, the fucking fishes followed me into there.. There was no water, just air, and dat fishy predator swan around in the air with his friend blocking my way into there, behind me was an electric eel and i kinda had a hard time in there..Besides being totaly confused why the fish is breathing air and flying...
sadly i have no video footage of those moments. i might need to think about trying shadowplay maybe..
besides those "kinda funny" bug moments im really enjoying this shit...And that comes form someone who hates those survival, eat, drink shit all the time games...
Wich doesnt mean those games are all bad, this one here did it right Im still playing, 30 hours in and still having fun.... 
Grumpy face anyone??? (i bet ya they did that on purpose)

i think game is miscalculating gameplay time, i started new game today at 14:00, played till 16:00, and save game says playtime is 4 hours and 37 minutes, no way.
Why walk, when you can ride.

@Nui
Did you had the whole radiation suit equipped?
I had a breather helmet on at first, which resulted in me still getting slight radiation damage. After exchanging it for the outfits helmet i didn't get any more damage.

:/ I miss Criterion's classic Sub Culture. It looks extremely dated these days (released in 1997).

The game really opens up once you build a seamoth and can traverse the ocean faster without having to worry about oxygen constantly. Then you build a big ass base and throw like 10 lockers in a separate room so you can hoard all the shit so inventory space becomes less stressful too. Next step build some greenbeds and grow Chinese potatoes, those give you food AND water, so food becomes less of a problem too. From this point onwards it's alot more comfy and you re systematically looting wrecks for blueprints and expanding your base, upgrading all the vehicles and tools and just having alot of fun.

This all sounds like science fiction to me.
At what point am i able to build a base?

the point you have scanned the stuff you have to, so you can build the base...
to be honest, shouldnt take long, you can make a base out of tubes if you want, but if you found teh multi purpose room, you really can start..
so, watch out for an multi purpose room to scan.
im not gonna tell you where or how it will happen, its up to you
if you follow the audio signals from the story it shouldnt take you long..

A little hint that will jumpstart your adventure a bit, you will eventually get to go here anyway due to the story but I found it earlier and it helped alot:
 Spoiler: | from your pod head SW for a bit more than 1000m (if you don't have a compass yet, the crashed aurora is east of your pod) and you will reach a big island with 3 small bases on it. Scan the shit out of everything and collect all the veg seeds |

@3E74
I guess being so close to a volcano you are mainly using thermal energy, at what depth is that base?
@Sin317
I initially decided for planting Chinese potatoes instead, because each spot grows 5-6 potatoes vs only 1 melon.
Though in the end I only need like 8 growing spots even for melons, since that is enough for completely replenishing food and water, so I guess I ll go with melons from now on.

I have a bit of a deep sea phobia and I gotta say, at depths of 800 to 900 meters, this game is the stuff of nightmares. I will have to do something else now for 30 mins before going to sleep cuz I really don't wanna have nightmares based on this. Most unsettling game I ve played since silent hill 1 and 2. I will never try this in VR, ever.

Not sure if i'm stuck, but i'm not getting any new radio calls since the first two pods.
Am i supposed to find something in that huge cave of the first call? Went in there two times, but everytime O2 is getting low before i can explore everything.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/subnauticas-sound-designer-is-apparently-racist-and-transphobic.21140/
And Subnautica gets into trouble like so many other game these days, wonder what this is going to lead to then.
Some forum posts or what they are from one on of the sound designers of the game this time.
EDIT: Era can be useful for game information and news but in other aspects they are pretty much NeoGaf 2 and things like this pop up frequently, at least it does give some entertainment reading the comments, well they're a bit less ban happy I suppose but that happens often as well.

Press F3 once, and once again. then you can press f6 and the HUD will go away..You have to press it more then once, first press disables icons, second press, icons and hud, and so on...just press F6 till you have what you want

Yes, i do use thermal energy...For 2 reasons.
1. Its a vulcano down there, so best solution.
2. Someone really does not like the humming from the nuclear reactor..
maybe spoilers?!?!?!
| Spoiler: |
I found out that, when you are using an Nuclear reactor, the Leviathan does really not like that, i guess its because of the humming that comes from it, if you use nuclear, he will come down and attack the room where the reactor is in.. Awesome to put something like that in the game...haha.. |
The depth of that base is around 400 meters. Kinda on the edge of the map..
PS..  , yay the Forum is up again...
Edit...
Woaw, you can stack those huge aquariums
Now, i just have to find some Leviathan Eggs I mean, why else would they allow to stack them and make "ONE" really huge Aquarium out of it???
Damn, im gonna search some Eggs now
