It is basically Bioshock but in slightly different setting.

I.e. gets boring around middle of the game.

You probably can force himself to get past that but somewhere close at the end you will end this slugfest

No.

>>377118708
Yes
Even level design is similar to Infinite.

Plot is tasteless and colorless as fuck, just mediocre "small cutscene thing happened once you've reached specific part of the level" across whole game. Absolutely nothing to surprise you.

I did it last night and played a little then i pissed off two of the corrupted robots and got my ass handed to me it seemed like a fun game fron what little i played digs into classic games a bit more than most

This is as close to system shock 2 as we've had in years and the market is absolutely not flooded with these.

>>377120569
Its just my opinion, so chances are you might think completely different to me.

But I thought the gunplay was pretty terrible; the offset crosshair really didn't feel right and everything was awkward.

Everything else was just boring.

In the real world, the aliens took over and you're just a captured alien strapped into a simulation, oh and all the characters are computer programs except the fat fuck "Alex". It's his brothers memories you're reliving, and you're playing as the captured alien that thinks he's the guy in the OP

You sound like 17 or something.
The gunplay in SS2 and Deus Ex were terrible and it's still top 5 best games ever made.

>>377118582
Why do people keep saying this? It's much closer to system shock, hell it's closer to stalker than bioshock

it's amazing how many people in here are straight up lying about having played prey or just have horrid taste like >>377120708

this game is probably my favorite shooter to come out in the past few years, it's as close to system shock 3 that we'll ever get and is probably more fun than the kickstarter one will be

pros:

-story is pretty good, nothing spectacular but enthralling enough to keep you interested
-combat is pretty diverse as to how you can approach killing things, again nothing spectacular
-exploration will scratch that autism you may have very well, the non-linearity and freedom to explore is fantastic and probably its best quality overall
-the recycle / fabricate system is great, makes you want to pick up everything since you can always just recycle it into materials for something else
-voice acting is pretty damn good as a cherry on top
-ost has a few good songs, but overall you will probably want to turn your music down

>>377121995
You didn't ask for any of that, you asked about what I expected. You could hit the character limit with reasons why this isn't as good as SS1 or 2, but I'll keep it short. The exploration is meaningless, the resources aren't actually scarce, the level design is simplistic, there's only three types of enemies and their main gimmick gets old within the first 10 minutes. There's nothing clever of interesting about any of the mechanics. It's a by the numbers Bioshock clone that just superficially pretends to be System Shock, because the people in charge couldn't be assed to figure out what actually made System Shock good.

>>377122376
In what way? Bioshock has a much more linear level structure and doesn't have the majority of the rpg features, it doesn't really even have an inventory. Why do you think it's closer to Bioshock?

I really enjoyed Prey and just noticed I actually have System Shock 2 in my steam library - are there any mods I should consider or just go vanilla?

>>377122257
You don't get it, we, the 4channers, hate him!

>>377122628
i'm sure there are some HD mods out there, but i'm not sure

the game is pretty dated in terms of how the gameplay feels imo

>>377122628
Just change controls to shooter and go at it

Forget this game, I can't wait for BioShock 4.

>>377122289
>>377122484
"Reading emails, listening to audio logs" is not gameplay. The gameplay is how you aproach and do those things. That's like saying two games are similar just because in both you fight with swords. I'm not the previous guy and Pray may very well be similar game to SS2 but you can't argument it like that. "In both you have a skill tree, you can aproach fights in different ways and level design is similar" - that's more like it.
Like hacking has already been done in a million different ways.

Hey so I see this thread is mostly shitposting, but I'm considering buying the game and see a lot of comments about how it's close to System Shock 2.

How is the inventory system? SS2 was clunky even in its time. Did they successfully update resource management while keeping it scarce enough to be interesting?

I played bioshock on hard and always had too much loot laying around, so I'm just wondering how the scarcity/upgrades/inventory system works.

Thanks in advance anons.

The thng is we dont have nearly enough of this type of game for its gameplay to really feel that old so even if its not as good as ss1 or ss2 its still a veey servicabkr ll on its own and certaintly better than the game it borrows its name from

>>377123020
-you will never have too much loot as you recycle waht you don't need

>>377123020
The inventory appears very similar to ss2 on the surface. It reminds me of modern deus ex inventory. Expect to be constantly scrounging for materials. Like Fallout 4 every piece of trash is useful and can be turned into other things. In this way you have limited control over your supplies, you could use some of the resources you'd use for ammo to make medkits if you needed to for instance. But if you're like me you'll probably spend it all on neuromods

>>377123375

OK guess I will give it a shot. Sounds like there's enough there to experiment with different things at least.

I actually really like the game, i'm just sayin'.

>>377123738
The 1.0 version of the game is just broken. It got a 4/10 review before it got patched. You could have also run into an infinite health boss or just had your save straight up deleted. You can either wait for the crackers to release a patch or just drop this turd.

>>377123738
There's actually two keys. One floats next to his body for cinematic effect, and another one should be on his corpse, just in case you accidentally hit the key and it floats off. It sounds like youre having a glitch, but it is possible theres a key floating around that breached room. Have fun with that.

>>377123770
>Story being told through audio logs is not gameplay related
Of course it is. Some games pause the action so you can watch a cutscene, others rely on enivronmental storytelling and things like audio logs.

As for having to expand on things, given that the topic if prey and system shock 2 anyone who has played those games would know exactly what I was fucking talking about. Context isn't hard friendo, it isn't Microsoft suite simulator.

>>377124168
Anyone who played SS2 and Prey knows that you're full of shit.

>>377124168
I can't agree on the story, you can have games like Dark Souls and Lords of the Fallen which are almost exactly the same gameplay-wise but hey have different story telling.

You're probably right about the context, I really hate fags I've met who could describe games only by the setting and I may have overreacted

I see what you're saying - I guess the thing with audio logs is it's something you have to seek and you can easily miss a lot of the transcribes in the game... but then that stuff is mostly lore and extra information that isn't really necessary to follow the actual main narrative so I'll concede to you on that one!

Hapas aren't human.

>level design similar to infinite
Anon, I...

how do i pirate videogaem

>>377118192
try the demo and see for yourself. i found it to be incredibly bland in every regard

It is quite gud and easily the best Looking Glass style game out of the post 2005 crop. Compared to SS2, it's less survival horror focused on resource management, and more about open-ended exploration of an interconnected world. RPG elements and atmosphere are weaker than SS2, but level-design is as good or better, and the space station in Prey is a much better realized and believable setting overall. Combat and enemy design is better in Prey as well, though that's a necessity given that it abandons the survival horror elements and has no excuse left to be a clunky wrench-melee game. Both games are well-written and make excellent use of audiologs, and while Prey lacks the memorable antagonists of SS2, it does a better job of fleshing out its side characters. There's no Shodan-reveal twist in Prey surprisingly - there's one after the credits, but it's more like a bit of cute meta-commentary rather than anything substantial.

Where Prey definitely drops the ball is the audio - music is often ill-fitting, scary sounds play for no apparent reason, and the mixing is incredibly bad for such a high-budget game. Volume levels of dialogue and sound effects don't reflect the source's distance from the player at all, and it's impossible to track enemies based on sound alone.

Overall though, I'd say it's worth playing, has some annoying signs of consolization, but also a lot of nice attention to detail and it actually improves upon SS2 in various ways, much unlike Bioshock which was straight up dumbing down with a nice coat of paint on top.

Then what's the problem. It has an engineering operator and a medical operator for sustain. For enemies, it has two phantoms, one upgraded phantom and two corrupted operators.

You faggots are insufferable. The game is mediocre, it's not bad, not shit, it's just OK. It has nothing on LGS, stop pretending it does, and stop trying to say it's like System Shock. It only is in a spiritual sense, does everything slightly worse, all while being modern AAA trash with looting, crafting, shit AI, low enemy variety, boring combat, easy as fuck, etc.

This game is not that fucking good, at all.

It actually runs on my decade old c2d 470gtx rig on low settings but not smoothly enough to play it.

>>377129887
Yeah, it runs well but it also looks like shit or Dishonored 1 for example

from watching ps4 gameplay it seems like the textures are too clean and it needed air effects like dust

Since when this board becomes this?

>mfw if you put less than 1 units of a raw material in a recycler it spits out 1 unit of the same material

It's that easy to duplicate and get infinite ammo

A simulation of events that actually happened, so it makes no difference.

>stop trying to say it's like System Shock.
It's like System Shock
>looting,
Like System Shock 2, just replace nanites with junk
>crafting
You mean the glorified vending machines (which were in System Shock 2) that just happen to use 4 different currencies instead of an universal one?
>shit AI
It's fine
>low enemy variety
I can agree on that, you've seen them all before the halfway mark
>boring combat
Did you even enjoy System Shock if you found the combat in PREY (which is like System Shock) boring?
>easy as fuck
Much like System Shock 2, it starts out sort of tough and steadily becomes easier as you gain more upgrades/resources

Now that we've got all that out of the way, I think we can all agree that System Shock 1 & 2 are far superior in terms of atmosphere and character

It's worth pirating if you have little to no disposable income, if it's not being released in your territory, or if a legitimate purchase comes with some unnecessary hassles like online checks or other restrictions. Otherwise, you should really exchange your money for the service you expect.

>the sheer amount of unmarked loot outside in space.

I'm not talking about the super obvious shit like the Transtar sign, the ship, the escape pod, or the marked stuff like hull breaches and bodies. I'm talking about all the hidden supply caches and maintenance tunnels.

I'm certain there is more I have not found too.

It's meh. If you have no good games on your backlog and just looking for something to pass the time I say pirate it.

>The game is mediocre, it's not bad, not shit, it's just OK. It has nothing on LGS, stop pretending it does, and stop trying to say it's like System Shock. It only is in a spiritual sense, does everything slightly worse, all while being modern AAA trash

It's it the top 10% of modern games because of the things that it does get right.

I love posts like this. Basically just saying 'I don't actually play/enjoy anything' if your standards are that it has to be as good as looking glass games

>>377118192

I think the game is super held back by its shitty enemy design. Enemies in Prey 2017 are like a step below from fighting generic soldier dudes, and I didn't think that was even possible.

The robots especially. Who the fuck got the brilliant idea to make robots be these flying triangular shapes that look like nothing?
