Haha I like your optimism! I've been posting it on both LEGO and Subnautica Reddits, so hopefully it gains even more traction.

Personally, I think the Degasi Seabase appeals to a more general audience (e.g. for people who don't know the game, it still works as a generic scifi base) but the reaper set is specifically made for fans of the game.

Also, the base is a bigger and more complicated set, with more figures and accessories, so people are more attracted to that.
