I am kind of disappointed in the achievements to be honest.

I mean none of them are really challenging to be honest. You unlock pretty much all of them just by playing the game normally on your first walkthrough. There aren't really any achievements you could realistically miss. I mean let's see:

Getting your feet wet: Unlocked the moment you jump into the water

'Settling in for the Long Haul'': Good luck making it to the end without the facilities provided by a seabase. Not to mention people would build it just for the sake of having an underwater home'''

Extinction event avoided: The radiation zone is so annoying that you are pretty much guaranteed to eventually drag yourself past that reaper at the Aurora and fix the drivecore.

Ancient technologies: No way to complete the game without dragging your ass there and hitting the button

'Personal Propulsion'': The only one where it's coneivable to miss. Namely, you end up not finding 3 fragments and end up building cyclops and prawn suit before getting to this one'''

Ordered the Prawn: What gamer could possibly NOT build it after conveniently getting all the blueprints inside the aurora?

Seaside Living with an Ocean View/Follow the Degasi/Seamonsters: You kind of need to get there even if you don't want to simply because they are the places you get all your seabase blueprints from

'"Man's Best Friend"'': Who wouldn't want a cute pet alien octopus? '''

'40-foot Sub For One'': Someone NOT building the huge sub is a tough pill to swallow. '''

Follow the Lost River/Thermal Activity/Fourteen Thousand Leagues Under the Sea/Optimal Health: No way to avoid those if you make it to the end

'Leave Only Time Capsules'': On your playthrough, you likely find quite a few of those lying around, so why wouln't you throw together one with a few useful items and a witty comment? '''

Go Among the Stars: Impossible to miss if you make it to the end.

'''But you get my point, right? None of these achievements are hard to get and require you to go out of your way to find them. Kind of a shame, there's room for quite a few funny ones in this game. '''
