If you're at 500m, and you're pretty sure you've done everything you need to do at 500m, figure out how to get the tools necessary to go deeper, and then go deeper. If you have the tools and resources to dive to 500m but you haven't ventured past 300m, you should go deeper.

If you don't know where to go, it's a safe bet that 'deeper' will probably solve your problems. The general tips anyone on this sub will give you are as follows:

I won't spoiler this section as it applies in a general way with no real 'story progress' involved. This main post will never contain spoilers. Hours within posting this there are already story spoilers. You'll have to 'unspoiler' each paragraph, as I don't think there's a way to spoiler multiple paragraphs under the same spoiler tag, apologies.įor those that want to do most of the game themselves but just need a little bit of a leg-up on where to go, this is for you.Īs an aside and a precaution to new players who absolutely wish not to be spoiled on anything, I cannot moderate the comments below.

I will keep all story elements out of the game and instead just reference general locations and depths. I will spoiler mark basically everything in this guide except the headers, allowing any prospective help-seeker to come in and obtain specifically the information they want to know if they are stuck. So without much more exposition, I came up with an idea for a compromise. Progress in the game can definitely be frustrating, this guide aims to relieve some of the more frustrating areas by providing brief, mostly-spoiler-free (the story itself will never be spoiled here, but some locations as well as different tools and whatnot are named) guidelines. However, having suggested this game to several different friends during it's free-period on Epic Games, and getting their separate reactions and thoughts on the game, I decided that there are many different types of people that play this game, and one of the biggest frustrations for a lot of people that don't have the pure love of random exploration is the game's lack of clear information on what the hell to do.Īlso I figure with the release on console, the Epic Games release, as well as hype for Sub Zero, plenty of new players will be trickling in here from time to time, and I aim for this to be a one-stop-shop for newer players that older members here can link to, that is new-player friendly, and a bit more descriptive than 'go deeper'. I know guides are kind of not well received here since the point of the game is exploration and not spoiling yourself and yada-yada.
