Having been able to dodge all spoilers before playing the final release version of Subnautica, I could not imagine subjecting myself to a playtest or early access of Subnautica 2. Below Zero may have been a disappointment but I'd rather take the chance of discovering that for myself than risk ruining what could be a once in a lifetime experience by trying to play it before it's finished.
I know! S2 is my most anticipated game right now so part of me would love to jump in as early as possible. But I had the same experience of playing the original Subnautica with almost no prior knowledge and I'm so happy I did.
For me, the best part of Below Zero by far was seeing it grow and change over its development cycle. One day I would discover a new feature and then a week later it would be much more polished, and another two weeks later it would have moved to a different place and be revised again.
That was a once in a lifetime experience, too, and to me it was much more fun than the finished game. I'm glad I did it this way, and I hope it will be a similar experience with Subnautica 2. But of course I can see that there's a good chance it will just be an unfinished game with lots of spoilers.
