The combat boils down to WHACK-A-MOLE and FIND-THE-MIMIC. A shitty enemy you are going to be fighting 90% of the game.

In other words: imagine Half-Life 1 would have been you fighting headcrabs with the crowbar 90% of the game.

This game is fucking trash and it deserves to bomb as hard as it did.

Bioshock is just System Shock in water, and Prey is just Bioshock in space. It's an appropriate comparison. I mean, as the reviewer points out, what other games besides Bioshock start you off with a wrench, and later introduce you to voodoo magic?

What is the source for that first review? That guy clearly didn't even play the game, unless all he did was ignore side quests and just follow waypoints for the main quest at all times and assume that was the entirety of the game.
>>
>>376428612
I fucking love it, its great as fuck, but somewhere down the line it broke two of the npc's who get into your apartment, turn hostile for no reason and cannot complete a quest because of it.

Also, it is kinda weird, I expected an assault rifle somewhere, but did not get one. Using the pistol in rapid fire mode on the phantoms. Shit, it kinda serves that purpose but I feel like that there may...should be a rifle of some sort, maybe an smg? Then again it wouldnt exactly make sense since the space station wasnt made for specialized security. Still, kinda weird.

il wait for a patch that fixes the reactor room and the friendly npc bugs and then start again at hard mode.

I have a feeling that these reviewers are all expecting something that Prey wasn't meant to give. The game is designed so that there is never a point where you are safe and never a point where an enemy can't wreck your shit no matter how good you think you are.

I think a lot of these reviewers aren't satisfied with not being the big powerhouse of the game and considering it seems a lot of the enemies are designed to discourage mindless shooting, it seems that its the reviewers own fault.

I mean, if you have troupble sneaking past the phantoms then you have a bigger problem than game design.

>punishing resource management
I played on Very Hard, were we playing the same game? I had resources galore...
Combat being 'clunky' is an excuse not to describe the issues since reviewers are shit - the problem is your weapons are terrible, the guns are barely better than wrench for mimics and anything stronger is a complete bullet sponge.

>doesnt know how to use the weapons against their weaknesses

the stun gun is pretty great against electrical things there are a few of those who soak up damage. The nullwave thing is also great for psycho faggots with abilities.

Everything has good counters. Some of the stronger enemies die with a couple of blasts with a shotgun after they have been stunned.
>>
>>376433357
Are you using the weaknesses?

2 secs of q-beam on Ethereal Phantom=dead phantom. Gloo is usefull on everything that doesnt have magic powers

Aliens aren't impressed by FPS skills so you need to use your shitty weapons (in-universe too btw) in the right way.

buying an IP name and then using it as a marketing tool while designing a completely different atmosphere compared to the old games creates expections that never had hopes of being met, you turn away old fans and new fans will wonder why it was called prey in the first play.

TL:DR stupid marketing gimmick killed the game's potential

Choosing the only two "bad" reviews and presenting them like it's the consensus.
Also, forgetting to remove the stupid Cons of the first one and letting us know it's bullshit.

Fortify does a good job of making them useful against pahntoms. Considering everything above a Weaver is a miniboss, I think its okay.

Even January tells you the turrets are shit though, they are just easy to spam so thats why they are used.

>Clunky Combat
The combat is super fluid and fast paced if you just go straight into it, it's objectively not even a problem. They probably consider it "clunky" because they played for 5 hours and didn't even get any Typhon abilities worth a shit.

>Forced Stealth and Platforming
What the actual fuck? You're never forced to sneak past enemies, it's easier to sneak past tougher enemies at the start but it's not mandatory. Also who the fuck has problems with platforming, which isn't even mandatory either, it just helps you find cool shit and explore more.

>Punishing Resource Management
The fact that they consider this a con is just depressing, it's not even true. You find a bunch of materials literally everywhere and can craft anything you could ever need, even fucking neuromods.

Yea pretty much this, everything is just so smooth, its like another bioschock, but in an era where there are no good games anymore. Its also better than bioshock, this game is seriously good.

From all the ingame world details, to the story, everything is fucking good.

Best thing yet is that there is also no sjw faggotry. Its one of those good old games that simply does gameplay right and doesnt pander to any crowds.

well its a good thing I didnt then.

But playing 20 hours through the game and I didnt find any kind of sjw faggotry. The few niggers there, that nigger who literally stole a white mans piano playing brain...

But overall it had no in your face sjw faggotry, dont think it even was subtle, the best thing in all of this is that if you kill the alien that controls humans, you can choose to save the whites only...that is what I did anyhow, kek
>>
>>376434428
That's not even that bad, considering how devs nowadays force their "diverse" or queer character and shove those traits down our throats.

I really like this game, but at points it feels like a B tier game version of a System/Bioshock game.

It's hard to explain but it's like if System Shock 2 was a genre, all the parts are there but they're just not as good as the other games in that genre.

Ikr?
It feels that every RPG has to have some sort of forced LGALPHABET character thrown in to just make everything super awkward and in your face.

Hell, the one reference to a past Lesbian couple in the game (past because Mimics were hungry) was so natural and so completely ignorable that it felt more of a "Yeah, their people" rather than "LOOK AT ME, I AM BAD ATTEMPT AT VIRTUE SIGNALING."

took me a bunch of tries, but that faggot truly is a huge faggot. There are environmental damages which you can use lures with (requires little ammo)

there are turrets, you can place down traps or use grenades.

I feel like games like these are supposed to be enjoyed by a more mature audience that understands the many principles of the game well, all the game mechanics and actually enjoys a challenge.

Having said that, sometimes I guess I would expect a few less tougher enemies from time to time. There is something quite discouraging when you wasted all of your items in one room, and then there are many other boss type enemies just in the next one.

The weavers especially, god those are annoying to kill unless you specifically prepare against them. Which means finding crafting stations, but the problem is that I often take everything that isnt bolted down. But the second resource item that is used in ammo, is quite rare, I wish there were other ways of acquiring it. Maybe even convert it from other types with a penalty.

I'd give it a 9/10 and would say it's easily one of the better games this year, which in my mind is actually saying a lot.

Did you like Deus Ex? System Shock 2? Thief 2? You'll likely enjoy this. Don't expect it to be those games come again, but know it's the same type of experience.

It's easily worth a purchase if you're the type of person who likes to explore and use your brain in a game. The only complaint I have is how garbage the ending is.

I bought Prey on a complete whim after not following it at all.
It's pretty fun, but very slow, like System Shock.
It sounds like these reviewers expected to play DOOM.

Its a good thing that you can remove them then, but yea, a minor annoyance still. But I found funny that one nigger couldnt play the piano, so he stole the neural map of someone who could (not a nigger I think) and made his own custom neuro mod

There is a nigger trapped in space as well, who you could vent out by opening his hatch instead of docking him.

So being able to remove negro kinda in my eyes makes up for it.

Nothing. The game is fine. Way more fun than Fallout 4 (easily the shittiest out of the three new games), and somehow that game got a higher score.

Reviewers aren't happy unless the game holds their hand the whole way through. The fact you might actually have to mitigate what you're doing to fight an enemy turns them off because it means they actually have to use their brain.

maybe it helps that I tend to play most games in a high-stealth approach? I mean I'm still fighting a lot of what I encounter, but its only after scouting out the room, working out what I can use in the environment.

One thing I do really, really fucking like so far: the level design. There are tons of obstacles, but I haven't encountered a bonus room so far I can't jimmy my way into, up to and including throwing a trashman grenade at heavy crates.

Another thing, every room with two exceptions so far has had a purpose. Something is always in it.

That's a very good way to break your game, and this was everyone's biggest criticism of System Shock 2.

Not to mention, even if Prey did this, you would be bitching about it.
>>
>>376439561
The game is a simulation that's made in order to try and awaken aliens to emphatize with the human beings, since the real world is fucked over already.

These threads have gotten me interested in the game but
(Actual potential spoilers)
About a month ago there was a prey thread where an anon claimed to be working on the game and said the plot was basically go save your brother or something but at the end you turn out to be an alien learning human behavior so you could (infiltrate?) Was he telling the truth because I remember I had reason to believe him but the plot he outlined was just so goddamn stupid it was hard to swallow.

Other than that there's the gameplay videos that all look awful but people claiming its ss3 is really intriguing me.

You're playing reconstructed human memories, so no.

>>376439994
Giving you different options in gameplay isn't illusion of choice, you dumbass.

The leak was right, but the guy actually sounded bored with the game he was working on. Actual game writing and story are pretty good, lots of fluff and fun little interaction, you can always boil down any story to a stupid outline.
>>
>>376438732

To what?

He was right about the story, wrong about the game itself being bad. My guess would be that if he really was a Bethesda insider that he only saw the game in a really rough in development stage. Or maybe he just had really bad taste, who knows?
>>
>>376440230
Its not different options if it leads to the same conclusion. Prey gives you about as much choice as a Tell Tale game
>>
>>376439970
That would have been better, because then you could have had a story where the main character gets consumed by the alien and you run a simulation to see if he's still in there or whatever.

Instead you're a random ayylmao getting tested for muh feels, which in one of the audio logs you find specifically says that they don't show any signs of empathy but whatever I guess.

>>376440141
He was right about the plot outline, but every plot looks stupid when you summarise it like that. Honestly it's about the many smaller stories you run into with the minor characters, not the overarching plot
>>
>>376440141
here's the gist
you're an alien injected with morgan juice
the "game" is you living through morgan's memories which actually happened but you get to make your own choices since it's an simulation
it was all an experiment to see if you(morgan ayylmao) can feel human empathy and stop invading earth

But Prey does some things better than Shock 2.
For exemple, in Shock 2 you would feel pretty powerful around mid-game and literraly unstoppable by the end of the game.
Played Prey on nightmare and never really felt that way. It easier by the end yes but still fairly challenging on Hard+

The only thing that really annoyed me about the game is the little enemy variety, and thats.. pretty much it, i know there are different varations to the phantoms and mimics but its like Battlefield 1 when they tried to cover up the lack of weapons with variations..

the ending was a letdown but they're the least important part for me in a game, i guess “It’s not the destination so much as the journey" is true for me.

and thats about it, its a rock solid 8.5/9 out of 10

System shock 2 is so a fps lol. Just because your not constantly killing hordes of Russian soldiers doesn't mean it's not an fps.

Lack of enemy variety is a little frustrating, especially on Nightmere..

>>376440829
>>376441018

The ending is terrible yeah, for me it was a massive turn down and left me quite upset that there was no climax whatsoever.
Side quests are just "go here grab this" most of the time, having to follow a marker because otherwise you wouldn't know where to go.
Sometimes they make nice world-building but I found that situation to be a rare one.

I'll agree that the environments are excellently well build and that some log conversations build nice characters but in my opinion there is too much of them to keep track of their doings by just listening to logs and most of them have quite a plain personality. But that's probably me biased just because Shodan and The Many left the bar too high.
Also through the main quest the game will require you to sit down and listen because there will always be an enemy if you go forward in a new area while you are listening to some character tell you what's going to happen next, which I don't remember being a problem in SS2.

No, but you're going to keep pretending that.

Zenimax, was was just their legal division, outgrew them and bought control of Bethesda ar around 2008. I don't have a link but they brag about when they did it and said they had big plans on forcing thing to happen that Bethesda didn't want to do. For example, Bethesda was against TESO and had no part in making it but was forced to allow it to happen (and I heard they are also forced to consider it canon).

Yes but they were made as a separate entity as their legal department. Lawyers being scumbags that they are, did some black magic to become the bigger entity and eventually the parent company

Even more confusing, there is a difference between Bethesda 'Softworks' and 'Bethesda Game Studios'. Game Studios is the real Bethesda that makes TES and Fallout, Bethesda Softworks is another company Zenimax created to publish and develop games using Behtesda's name and credibility but they have nothing to do with each other.
