![]() The characters sound as if they are anywhere else than at the brink of mankind's extinction, delivering monotone or untroubled soundbytes instead. It is another aspect of Aquanox that feels out of place in 2020, and that problem is compoundedby voice acting that is equally anachronistic. ![]() Fighting the infected sea creatures is a treat that feels few and far between, and is where Aquanox Deep Descent is at its best, but fighting the much more common other ships populating the ocean is frustrating and can feel unfair at times.Īquanox's storyline is semi-interesting and has some original plot points, but the overwhelming majority of the narrative feels overdone to the point of predictability. In fact, it is rarely something players will look forward to. The issue here is that Aquanox's combat is not always enjoyable, which no amount of variety in terms of gear can fix.

It's not as enjoyable to play as it would have been 10+ years ago, and for that reason, the gameplay can get old pretty quick. While it is fun for a little bit of time to experience the purity of gaming that was offered during that time period, its lack of modern-day innovations makes Aquanox Deep Descent feel outdated. ![]() Playing it feels like taking a trip back in time to the early 2000s, which is both a positive and a negative.
