It's great BUT Arkane bring back the Trauma system you removed:

>Concussion - Reduced psi capacity || Reduced resistance to psychic and fear attacks || Blurry vision
Use Brained pills or visit a Medical Operator. Neuromod installation also removes concussions.

>Fracture - Movement impaired || Cannot sprint
Use a Skeletal Repair Kit or visit a Medical Operator.

>Hemorrhage (aka Laceration or "Bleeding")
Take extra damage from physical attacks || Sprinting causes damage
Use Coagulating Gel or visit a Medical Operator. Trauma diminishes over time.

>Third Degree Burns - Reduced maximum health
Use Dermaweb Skin Graft or visit a Medical Operator.

>Blind - Impaired vision || Reduced accuracy with firearms
Effect is temporary.

FUCK PLAYTESTERS.

no wonder it feels so fucking easy, this is exactly what its missing, what the fuck

>>377239073
There was also an oxygen meter that was removed, as well as weapons degradation as one point. Maybe they'll add in NG+ and a survival mode.

>>377239316
everything cool in games is removed because of playtesters

Is there a chance of this stuff getting added? It sounds great.

>>377239316
They also removed weapon degradation and oxygen system.

They say they'll release a Hardcore mode with all of theses.

>>377239073
Why not just have a pop up pop up for each status effect the first time you get it? If people still get fucked by one and don't understand its their own fault and they're not paying attention. They shouldn't be play testing the game.

It's a good game, but it's only good when the systems in place could have created an amazing game.

There are too many enemies and FAAAAAR too many supplies. The recycle system should have been for deciding if you wanted to recycle medpacks (if you had a few) into bullets that you desperately needed, but you also are not sure if you really should get rid of the medpacks or not.

I played through the whole game on nightmare, and by the time you get to the midgame you have infinite ammo, infinite healing items, and can shit out enough neuromods to get whatever the fuck you want. It made the game go from an exciting survivaly-actiony-horroy mash up to just being a straight action game with you sprinting through the levels blowing shit up with your mind and a fully upgraded shotgun.

Again, it's fun, and the game is good, but it's just so disappointing. In a game like this you should want every bullet, every medpack, every bit of food you can scrounge to count, but it simply doesn't.

Honestly the people on here bitch about no oxygen system and all that shit now, but you know if they actually implemented theyd be parroting the exact thing youre saying, they would be bitching about having to hunt for oxygen, they would bitch about having to manage the health effects.

Status affect would be nice because getting hurt is generally avoidable, and it'd encourage you to be more careful.
Oxygen would suck because it'd just put a timer on sections where you move like a fucking slug.

Thas said, seeing how robust Dishonored 2's custom difficulty menu was, I'm surprised they canned those mechanics.

I went in to Prey wanting to hate it. I was mad about Prey 2 and rented this game wanting to see if it was bad. And at first I did hate it, Prey's first few hours are really weak. But the more I played it the more I enjoyed it, and now it is my second favorite game of the year behind Persona 5.

>>377241976
What's wrong with it? It's a pretty small area.

>>377241932

Only if the property is someone elses. Morgan was pretty high up in Transtar so there could a be a vampric loophole there where he potentially has some form of ownership or right over the property.

Mirrors are impossible to do with deferred rendering, and 99% of modern games are using it. Hopefully DX12 will solve this at some point in the future. You can actually make the distinction at a glance - all games with functioning mirrors have distinct 'mid-2000-ies' looks and graphics (DX9) indicative of forward rendering

>Prey's first few hours are really week

??????

Prey's first few hours are the best part of the game. You know, the part where enemies are actually dangerous, and you barely have any ammo and actually have to try and get creative.

The game loses most if its steam near the endgame when Morgan becomes a psychic god who can blow up anyone by thinking about it.

Your average adual casual player isn't much different either.
They literally get confused if a big flashing sign isn't telling them where to go next. It's like IRL spatial awareness doesn't translate into vido games.
Maybe they just don't expect games to present you with options like that, I don't know.

its a weird thing with prey. for some reason it runs wildely different for different systems.
i have a 3570k and a 4gb 760gtx and with medium to high settings it never drops below 60 for me.
other people have reported it running like garbage on vastly stronger rigs.

it's not perfect by any means. many of the reasons why i love it are also things that i dislike in a sense. combat can be good and also really boring and drab; somehow i feel the original bioshock is more enjoyable in that sense, but man, the ending of the game was something i was expecting after doing the secret ending early on but it still felt really fresh and nice and overall i think prey is the best of all deus ex/system shock 2 spiritual successors. besides mankind divided of course

If only.
They don't even gain anything from it. People voluntarily install facebook filters so as to avoid looking uncool. They contend with weekly terror attacks just so they don't get called racist.

>>377244535
So what makes crafting crafting?
The ability to add misc properties to items?

TW1's alchemy is the only crafting mechanic I can think of that encouraged some measure of individual thinking and that was basically "match colors to make a stronger potion".

Yes, that's what they labeled it, but that doesn't change the fact that it's actually just glorified shopping (and there's nothing wrong with that)

Recycling grenades will also remove barriers without needing leverage, if it doesn't destroy them outright it'll usually give you a gap big enough to fit through.

Needed more weapons and weapons you find should have different upgrades.

>>377248335
Well, that's better than wasting recycler charges on anything I couldn't move.

Also, I'm pretty sure it's a bug, but if you have lvl1 Leverage, you can pick up a lvl1 item, hook it into a heavier one and pull it back with it.

>>377249772
Sort of. The simulation has made from the real Morgon's memories and they seem to retroactively change what characters think of you from your actions, so you could assume it happened that way.

>>377238076

Nah I'd rather have Dark Messiah 2 instead.

>>377239995
Just add more neuromods to do whatever.
Wild, Wild West with typhons or some shit.

>>377251865
What did you blow them all on?

Also, what is the failsafe supposed to do?
I repaired it but I didn't notice shit, I assumed it's responsible for isolating a roomb from the rest of the facility in the event of a hull breach.

>>377251865
Make sure you come back and repair the breach.

It grants you access to the beams division, and gives you the Q-Beam weapon. Also recycler grenades and a quest.

>>377251865
You're have more and can just go back outside and fix it. The whole station is open to you, it's just a case of finding cards and beating tougher monsters.

>>377250867
remind me of when people said its gonna be built around the wrench and gloo gun, they were so wrong, just like you.
after the first couple of hours, shotguns and pistol are your primaries, use gloo and wrench every once in a while to conserve ammo a little and thats about it

>>377250724
Theres an option to waste them all. Just look it up on YouTube.

>>377250724
Nope, you can let everyone die on the space station or you can rescue them.
The floating computers will give you different evaluations, but it always ends with take hand/kill all.

>>377252105
Yeah. It's there for the beams division room, which you can float to the door of, but it doesn't open because its failsafe is active. Repairing that one gives you access from what I can see.

>>377252105

>>377252852
There's also a Q-Beam on on of the corpses outside if you don't mind slipping past a Techno.

>>377252852
You can get the Q-Beam during your space walk, that's before you get to Dr. Galvino's corpse. It's on a woman's corpse guarded by a corrupted Operator.

Hey, is the game cracked yet? I played the PS4 Demo and liked it, but i'd like to pirate the game first and check out if it runs well on the gaming laptop i'm borrowing while my pc comes in

>>377237494
I really enjoyed this game, Talos station felt so much more 'alive' than Rapture, or Black Mesa, or any of those sorts of places. The attention to detail in the different notes, hearing about the relationships and etc. on the transcripts, and how each of the side-characters seemed to have personalities...

So much so that it was quite saddening to find some of them dead (Abby), especially with all the 'happy' activites you find - the D&D game, the birthday party and particularly the singing (one of the most memorable scenes, probably).

All of that was eroded by the ending, which felt like a complete slap in the face. You go through the whole game finding bits and pieces, trying to figure out what happened, only for it... to all be a simulation. Nothing mattered. In fact, you don't even know what happened or what didn't on the actual Talos-1 - since Alex says the simulation was based on Morgan's memories. Hell, you don't even know what happened to Morgan.

It's a total bullshit ending where the writers clearly wanted to try to look smart. I can smell Chris Avellone all over it, really, since it seems he's only capable of writing the same amnesia / changing personalities shit that only ever worked well in PS:T.
All the relationships you tried to make over the game, with Mikhaila and even Alex, all were meaningless. I thought it was going to be about Morgan either redeeming themself or sinking into madness, after their role in the experiments, but no... the ending just spits on it all, opens up a whole new can of questions without answering anything.

>>377253794
Oh yeah, that was a point. Though I think they could make a point by logging past attempts with primates, pigs and other smart creatures (Logs about trying to get an elephant into space would have been funny)

>>377253941
I really like the idea behind the ending, but it was just poorly executed.

If we got more answers about Morgan, a real payoff for the relationships you built and the redemption of nuMorgan it could have been really interesting.

>>377241761
and it's good. because it's just a normal love story: two gooks munch carpets, the stronk woman gook hurt herself and her gf by being a stubborn shit like what sjw believe stronk woman should be, which lead to her gf's death so she had a change of heart and help you despire her disdain for the jew.

It was more like they played a Planescape, but actually you were just someone with the Nameless One's memories! So you've got no reason to feel bad anymore, or really feel... anything at all. You just feel like you wasted your time with the 'story'.

>>377254316
I think there shouldn't have been a nuMorgan. There should've been a payoff for the relationships, though, and a redemption for the real Morgan.
The biggest punch was probably that the people I painstakingly tried to save were just fucking operators in the 'real ending' - what the fuck was even up with that? Were they dead? How many years in the future was it? Again, it just opens so many questions and answers nothing.

>>377255173
The thing is, I don't doubt they're going to milk it and have a sequel or DLC or both.

But I don't see how they're going to do that with how the current one ended, unless they do a Mass Effect and 'rewrite' the ending.

If they wanted to jew out and milk sequels, they could've literally done anything else in the ending:
You escape the station, or blow it up, or whatever... but there are more Typhon coming. Or maybe the Typhon reach earth, and in the sequel you need to stop them. Or perhaps it could be about the moon or other stations the characters sometimes mention, with the other Yu family members.
But no, they pull this weird shit and I really don't see what they could do.


On a side-note, did anyone else find it really jarring that you personally never speak... however January constantly talks to people with your voice. Why not just have Morgan talk?

>>377255604
>On a side-note, did anyone else find it really jarring that you personally never speak... however January constantly talks to people with your voice. Why not just have Morgan talk?
Immersion. I hate speaking protagonists in games like this.

>>377255738
agreed, nothing more jarring

>>377255738
>>377255804
This is a spoiler
It's most likely that the TyphonMorgan you play as is unable to speak for whatever reason. Maybe because it mimics his memories, and can read, but can't emulate vocal cords?
Also is the real Morgan dead or what? Does the end of the game imply that everything that happened on Talos 1 was a remake of what Morgan actually did?

>>377255604
Nah. Then you'll have January, your recordings AND you having the same voice.

My only thoughts on it is that they're using Yu's corpse/comatose body as a host, as we know phantoms are risen from corpses...but that doesn't account for the fact that you can't reuse corpses for phantom making.

The ending would have made a good "would you kindly" twist about 2/3 into the game but as it is, it just feels like fluff.

It really does reinforce the whole We want the Typhon to feel thing. They have a sizable mixture of action, comedy, logic and reasoning processing, overlapping plots, and even a bit of tragedy all over the place. It's quite interesting.

>Military operators
What were they thinking with this?

I'm really saddened by the lack of weapon variety.

I think it could have done with 2 or 3 more firearms. You don't want to go overboard, but with limited inventory space it would have been cool to make some choices in what you carry around.

I would have, personally, made at least a magnum and a submachine gun. The Magnum would be very high damage, slow fire rate, high recoil, and extremely rare/expensive ammo. SMG would be a close to medium range style weapon with high recoil and low damage.

If you add in more weapons and more weapon types, you really wouldn't be able to carry around all the weapons and all the bullets for them. It would have been neat to have different options.

On a scale of Goggles shooting SHODAN in the face to Fontaine's roid rave, how badly does Prey shit the bed at the end?

>>377262558
Agreed. I would have loved more lab weapons.

I chose that because I figured it would help the people I saved get away if I just used the nullwave instead of blowing shit up and if that was all a collection of Morgan's memories then who the fuck was going through the simulation the whole time and what happened to Morgan

It's a setup for Prey 2. You'll play as a hybrid tasked by Alex to purge Earth of the Typhon.

It's not about the difficulty, it's just that they're literally black blobs.

Oil monsters not scary in the slightest.

>>377274675
why do you guys think this was supposed to be a horror game

>>377275202
Because it acts like one?

The mimic jumpscares got old super fast

>>377274662
>>377274761
inb4 its just a quip from one character about how unusual this run of the simulation was if you install no neuromods, never use the recylcer, never ear any food, kill every robot, typhoon and human on the station

>have an interesting mimic mechanic
>just use it to do retarded jump scares a room away instead of making the player actually scan a room and see what is out of place

>>377275272
Good thing there's a chip that negates the jumpscares like an hour into the game.

Hopefully this is the end of the "trapped in a spooky isolated art deco station full of mods that change your genetics and audiotapes with an epik le mindfugg xDD tweest in the end"

>>377275451
the jumpscares wouldn't be as bad if they didn't have a loud ass blaring sound everytime it happened

it leans way harder on the 'jump' part than on the 'scare' part. It's not scary at all walking into random rooms but even if you see it coming a mile away the loud ass BRMMMMMMMMM will make anyways jump

>denuvo
It's shit

>>377275202
Advertised like one. It's predecessor was one.

is this game fun

Sell it to me

I was unimpressed with the first one. I mean it wasn't bad but it wasn't great either; I guess it didn't help by the time I played it it was years old

>>377276086
Pirate or wait for sale

>>377276138
Please elbatorate familia

>>377275884
bruh it was cracked this morning

>>377276215
Are you really itching to play Bioshock again?

>>377276086
This game is a new system shock.
Not Bioshock.
If that sounds like your cup of tea buy it.

>>377276218
I'm just pointing out that every game with denuvo has been shit so far

>>377276138
download the cpy release or play with your fidget spinner while you wait for a discounted price.

>>377276086
It's great if you either pirate it or aren't a poorfag. Solid gameplay throughout, decent story, legitimately non-linear, and looks alright. A lot of interactivity between enemies, your environment, and you.

There isn't a "first" one. This is a completely different game.

If you like System Shock, Dishonored, or Bioshock and aren't a contrarian/nitpicker than you will likely enjoy this one to some degree.

>>377276313
>Not Bioshock

This game is LITERALLY Bethesda's Bioshock.

>>377241267
>People who want the feature would be complaining it was in
Listen me, /v/ isn't all one person. It's me, and that other guy, that guy that pretends to be a woman, and that woman that pretends to be a man. We need to stop thinking that /v/ is only two people.

>>377276379
No, it's bethesda's attempted throwback to system shock, and they landed far closer than bioshock ever thought about coming.

>>377276371
>There isn't a "first" one. This is a completely different game.
It's still part of the franchise lol

I'll probably torrent it then

>>377276310
Sure why not. Bioshock 1 was dope

>>377276313
Maybe I should finally get around to playing SS but I cbf modding it

>art deco motif
>story is about memories
>game grades you at the end on good/evil choices you made

Why is this game called Prey again?

>>377274662
you will be ashamed of your words and deeds

>>377277118
Higher ups at Arkane and Bethesda thought it sounded cool.

>>377276714
The only areas that felt Art Deco to me were the lobby and exterior. And using another organism to give yourself powers is probably the closest draw you could make.

>Cracked within days

>>377277118
original Prey is a dead franchise

and Prey is too valuable of a name to just let sit and rot on some dead game

>Legal Blindness
The clinical diagnosis refers to a central visual acuity of 20/200 or less in the better eye with the best possible correction, and/or a visual field of 20 degrees or less.

No, "Blindness" doesn't mean you can't see anything at all.
Partial Blindness is usually referred to when you're blind in one eye.
