Prey means deep space and deep gameplay. A huge space station hides thousands of game mechanics and dynamics ready to be explored by the solitary player. Its warfare is not infinite nor predestined, but makes up part of a bigger picture, a bigger game, where gameplay means much more than gunplay.
Prey is an action exploration game that sends a love letter to games such as System Shock 2 and Bioshock. It takes the best from them and combines it with some of its own fresh ideas and innovative gameplay, to create an amazing journey. Set on the Talos I space station that has been compromised by an alien race, you assume the role of Morgan, a scientist who will have to explore, survive and discover the world of Prey.
Prey es una mezcla sublime de la jugabilidad y los plásmidos de bioshock, las secundarias y explorabilidad de Skyrim con las soluciones, creatividad y libertad propia de las misiones de Arkane. Esto sería suficiente para convencerte jugar pero para más remate la música es increíble y la historia junto con el diálogo son simplemente arte. Uno de los mejores giros dramáticos qué he experimentado con un foreshadowing profesional. Hermoso, vale la pena sacarse el 100%
Best game I’ve played the last 10 years. No clue how its MC score is in the 70s. It physically pains me that people slept on this game. The story, setting, and gameplay are superb. You won’t want it to end! Simply amazing.
The new Prey isn't the old Prey. It's something completely new aimed at fans of "atmospherical exploration" in the vein of BioShock and System Shock. It's not perfect - its biggest strengths and weakness are the things this game borrows from other titles. Still, Arcane Studios has created an ambitious, difficult, engrossing game full of choices. A really great game.
While not the masterpiece it could have been, this imaginative, immersive sim provides an impressive, dense sandbox with plenty of exciting toys to play with. [July 2016, p.93]
Writing over our memories of the Prey that preceded it, Arkane Studios’ game is something new and yet strikingly familiar. There’s a great deal of kinship to the likes of Bioshock, Half-Life and other classic games, but it’s also broader and more expansive in what it tries to do. Regardless of its flaws and similarities, Prey manages to be an enthralling science fiction adventure.
Prey is a fun game with its highlights rooted in beautiful yet creepy levels that contain a lot to explore, but its lack of originality sadly holds it back quite a bit. It’s a classic case of “jack of all trades, master of none,” except with a couple of flaws in some of its trades as well.
The thing that dissapointed me first time i ran the game was that on ps5, i thought that the game will run smoothly in 60 fps, but no. It runs 30 fps, and at some moments it doesn't feel smooth at all. First of all i will tell my pros about this game. Sountrack is mysterious and almost horror-like. The opening of the game makes you want to learn more about what's happening. I like that the game doesn't want you to attack enemies head on, but to sneak and evade combat . Recycling system is a nice thing,too. Now for the cons.. There is a lot of backtracking as i push forward through the story. Variety of enemies is not very big, and later on they become so annoying and boring. I only liked the mimics, the rest is standard generic enemies, especially the phantoms, which have only one voice effect, and later it gets very annoying when you sneak and listening that one same voice over and over and over. Detection system sometimes gets really clunky, i think that in Dishonored it was better. The last third of the game was the worst for me, because of constant backtracking from one end of Talos to another, but not only that. The game throws ten times more enemies in the same area that you went already, and it doesn't add nothing interesting to the game, only pumps up the difficulty and that's it. So for me, the last 5 hours of the game was basically rushing from one objective to another, to avoid combat, and save the ammo. The game overall wasn't constant, you get one good mission, and after that you get two,three bad. It is a ok game,but nothing spectacular for me. Considering the start and the end of the game (they were excellent) , this game had a potential for something more.
FPS that's best described as Bioshock in space. The only real problem is that it treads very much the same ground as Dead Space but with a more "family friendly" and sterile feel and so is nowhere *near* as good. Competently executed but lacking that extra "oomph!" that makes for a truly great game.
I'm socked at how pedestrian this game is after listening to the hype for years and trying it out. And Arkane's customary technical flaws are present too, causing several crashes on my console. Honestly this is a fairly good Bioshock clone, but it's not really amazing at anything in particular. Even bought for a significant discount, it felt generic and tedious
