i just found the whole experience of playing prey tedious and it gets worse with nightmares. i had enough when a sub-mission i cleanly beat bugged out and failed me and then they spawned another nightmare 2 seconds later just to rub salt in the wound

noob opinion can be easily disregarded. bye

once you get a bunch of alien powers, you can gently caress the nightmares up though

Become the nightmare's nightmare

How fun/feasible is it, for you to play as a regular joe human who sneaks around? (And ambushes enemies, I guess)

Good question - I'd imagine it's feasible as there are a bunch of human powers/abilities to upgrade that give you a nice level of flexibility in how you play. The Typhon powers kick rear end though and I feel like you'd be missing out if you avoided them altogether, though

It’ll be tough since the alien powers are really useful, but it’s doable. In fact I’m pretty sure there’s an achievement for it. I haven’t done it myself though so I can’t speak to how fun it is.

i did no powers first run nd it was a bit samey but still fun. wanna do a full powers run sometime to see what I was missing

I think using them/not using them affects the ending you get, too

It does. I took a couple alien powers in my playthrough but went mostly human

yeah they called out tht I never used powers, seems like there's a lot of reactivity in the ending

the human only run is actually pretty easy, the human upgrades cover most of the passives and the really strong max payne bullet time ability. the alien powers-only run is really hard in comparison.

The ending of Prey sucked my hole. The gameplan was fun.

Prey owns, the recycler grenade is one of my favorite video game weapons of all time. Heavy object that requires level 2 leverage to move blocking your way? Turn that poo poo into a bunch of tiny cubes.

Mooncrash is fun too. It bummed me out that Deathloop was more of a puzzle game with just one right solution, because evacuating everyone in one run felt way more satisfying to pull off.

Fear not op.. It is merely Arkane Austin that is releasing an unfinished mismanaged game. Once the company is shuttered Father Spencer and Father Todd will be able to reallocate the team to other high profile Microsoft-Zemnimax-Bethesda projects projects like We Happy Few 2 and Sesnuasas sacrifice 2. Meanwhile Arkane Lyons can be directed to do a different guaranteed DOA hit, and shuttered by 2026 at the latest. A starfield tie-in early access card game that uses ai generatrd art and the blockchain perhaps? A win for gamers and for shareholders.

i didnt die at all in the game actually, maybe that added to the lack of tension. the nightmare was insanely easy to avoid but just slowed all progress down to a crawl. sounds like this game only appeals to noobs tbh

I played Dishonoured like 6 times and dropped 2 part way in. Feel like there games just feel so clunky and maybe I just didn't realise during DH1. It also just felt like they had much bigger problems in 2 with enemies seeing you 100m away through three fences because those don't count as hiding. They also removed a lot of the verticality from 1 (I assume because that let you do stealth too easily) but it ended up making things a quick load extravaganza if you wanted to do stealth imo. Prey is good but the opening sucks rear end




Thanks Pablo and Sub-Actuality for the great sigs!

The Prey opening is cool, actually. Morgan's apartment and exploring that area was a good start to the game.

The enemies just being formless blobs is the worst part.


Is We Happy Few worth playing?

Coolest part of Prey (2006), a game that is absolutely nothing like Prey (2017)
