        Duh? But it's the only way to experience more Prey. And it's it's still better than 90% of games.

        too bad the station exterior controls like absolute ass and is overly large and tedious to travel through even when you are oriented correctly

        Were you using a controller or something?

      So how IS Deathloop? I've seen people shit on it, but so far I've only played Arx Fatalis, Dishonored and Prey from Arkane, and I really liked all of them. How does it compare?

        It’s very underwhelming and doesn’t really get better with every loop as it could have been.

        Weapons don’t evolve much and neither your powers.
        It’s just a rogue like dishonored with cringe dialogue and constant handholding.

        It had some good ideas and a lot of potential but execution is terrible IMO.

        Writing is what did it for me, gameplay is fine even if you become effectively invicible way earlier than other Arkane games.

    Great world building
    Shitty enemy design and variety
    So many ways to play its far too easy
    First game that did scavenge-survival correctly
    A bit too linear and small scale
    Gunplay and upgrade system a bit shit, especially locking upgrade tiers behind level ups
    Neuromods far too common
    Dufficulties too bland and static, just enemy damage and detection speed changes
    Too many annoying females but Alex makes up for it
    Medical, engineer and science operators everywhere makes an already easy game a cakewalk, even on nightmare
    Shitty predictable ending
    Overall though an okay game, would play again
    Highly recommend the moon DLC

      Holy shit filtered. And I'm saying it because I have literally never heard this complaing about Bioshock, where almost every enemy is just a variety of human. By that logic, Prey has even more enemy variety.

              You don't get the Psychoscope until the fourth level. The Mimic detection chip only works while you have the Psychoscope on, which makes your vision crappier in every other way. And even then you really have to go out of your way to find the chip that detects Greater Mimics

            Yeah, it's actually easy as hell, but I've missed it myself despite looking for an entrance exactly like that for a while. I only found it when I revisited the quarters later. There's a small entrance very close to the door, just blocked by some trash you need to move first. If I remember correctly there's not all that much inside the room, though.

          I think the implication is that all of those people died and Alex made operators out of them like how Morgan made January.
          I guess if you want to be optimistic you could say they are using the operators to remotely work from a safe place.

            by the way, what are we supposed to assume happened to the real Morgan? Considering his memories were used for that simulation, I assume he survived Talos, and yet the aliens have come to Earth. Does that mean he has neither destroyed the station nor fried them through the coral? Did he just escape without doing either? And where is he now?

              It's kept ambiguous since his personality drift makes him unpredictable. He's either working for Alex or against him, or he's dead. It depends on what you did during the game and what you think he would do.

        I expected some sort of a "it was all a simulation" end due to what happens if you try to leave with Alex's capsule before finishing your job on the station. You can hear him say something like "this isn't the one, try again" or so. So I was glad that there was an additional twist on that in the end, but still, like the other anon said, it basically means all your choices and thoughts about what was going on were irrelevant. And the fact that the only ending before the post-credits twist is like a 10 second long cutscene didn't help.

        the world inside the simulation however altered is still real enough to matter in the end
        so are the choices and thoughts of Typhon-Morgan since the whole point of the simulation was to teach him empathy

    Love Prey but the closer you look at it you see how much it was compromised by casualization and them running out of money/time. In short, "lack of hard choices", too afraid to lock the player out of anything, too afraid to not have objective markers off by default. They could have done some really cool stuff with "Which version of yourself do you trust?", like maybe a less empathetic version of Morgan sends you into more dangerous areas with little regard for your suffering, or you hear a broader range of viewpoints on which actions are correct and why. Also I've played with markers and indicators turned off for so long I forgot the game has those little damage numbers flying off the enemies by default, wtf is that shit doing in an "immersive" game. Still better than any other modern attempt so I forgive it a lot. The station exterior was not something I expected to see in a modern game like this. And the GLOO gun rules, best climbing tool since rope arrows.

        I think the controls are fine. I'm assuming you do know you can boost? (Some people don't realize it which sounds like suffering.) My guess is that your main complaint is that movement is too slow anyway. I actually think it should be harder to control in the microgravity sections, it's too easy to stop your momentum.

          My main complaints is how easy it is to disorient yourself. You have to constantly stop and readjust when you're not traveling in a straight line because which way you're looking affects your position on all three axes. You end up upside down without even trying
          But yes, I also do think your top speed is too slow given the relative size of the exterior

            I believe your complaint about disorientation is common which is why I think they made most of the zero-g excursions short, optional, or fairly linear (the GUTS) and why they're not common in games in general. But I consider that part of the fun of such mechanics.

    I don't know why people hate on Prey's weapons so much, I think are great. Shotgun sounds great and is powerful, stun gun is cool, pistol is wimpy but it's supposed to be and is useful for plinking objects off shelves (it's a poking tool primarily), grenades are cool, nothing is useless. And I like the industrial-tool aesthetics a lot of them have. It's the Typhon powers that I think feel dull and not special or creative enough.

    Next playthrough I'll try "no directly harming enemies with guns", I plan on using as much enviromental damage as possible and psi powers.
    Game's amazing but it's got no balls, nightmare is a cakewalk if you have 2 braincells and use operators, you can have access to all powers, most solutions are next to each other, deaths have no penalty, etc.
    But I forgive it because it had to be very casualized for a large audience, it will be the last AAA ImSim possibly ever. This is a game where a self-imposed challenge is the answer if you want a true experience.
    Also the DLC is fricking amazing. I never got softlocked, there's always a way forward. I only wish I could delete the story and let me crank up the enviromental hazards to 11. Oh, and locking your savefile after scaping with the 5 characters was moronic.
    All and all, I've probably spent 100 hours playing both the base game and the DLC and it just keeps on giving.

    This game is for modern queers, if you like it, you are in denial about being a huge homosexual as well as dumb as a bag of rocks. Its really boring once it clicks that the enemies are all the same and very uninspired with their design. The only decent weapon is a shotgun. But the whole narrative is how men are stupid and women rule. Every man in this game is a fricking idiot and the game developers make sure that you're getting fed that with every fricking audio log, text log and video call.
