To my knowledge, not a single Japanese person worked in Arkane Studios on Prey 2017, so we can't be sure they made it so that we can say "Do you want to Prey a game?" like if we were in Japan. But what if?..

Not gonna lie, the single coolest and most impactful bit of level design is the game showing you that you can climb walls with the GLOO cannon. With that, the game cracks itself wide open, because I’m sure without it most players wouldn’t have even considered the platform cannon to be usable that way.
I'm so glad you recommended people to play it without HUD elements at the end. Aside from the zero-g sections outside the station my second playthrough was really elevated by not having automatic waypoints and quest markers everywhere. I think I even kept physical pen-and-paper notes that time.
Since you said this is the most perfect ImSim, yet it isn't a masterpiece, are there any immersive sims you do regard as masterpieces?
One of the greatest ImSims ever made, and definitely Colantonio's best game he's ever done.
I just started playing this game again for my 3rd play through this week.. I first played it early last year .. it’s really just something special.. it’s not perfect but it is without a doubt one of the most immersive games you’ll ever play, the gameplay and all the tools u use r just amazing to play around with, and not only that but all of it stays true to the in game world, all of it is practical and logical to exist in this world, and yet it’s also just super fun to play as a video game ar the same time .. I mean u just don’t see this kind of stuff too much anymore.. for my money, prey is one of the most masterfully crafted games and game worlds I’ve ever had the pleasure of interacting with
In all honesty I’ve just fell in love with every single arkane game I’ve ever played - though I haven’t played redfall - and I think prey is probably their best work overall
There is an upgrade chipset for the scope that enables it to detect lower level mimics. It is handy for scanning a room before trying to pick up objects.
Thank you for making a video about my all-time favourite game man. Also FYI, Chris Avellone was a writer on Prey. Yeah, the Planescape, KOTOR II and New Vegas Chris. Explains alot.
Also, STRONGLY disagree on Mick's score, Everything's Going to be Okay, No Gravity, Alex's Theme, December and January, Mind Game, Sacred Geometry, so much of my GOAT playlist is Prey's music. One of Mick's best work hands down (although the last 2 tracks were actually by the game director Raphael and his band Weird Wolves).
worth noting that Chris Avellone only wrote for a few characters in the game like Mikhaila and her quest but most of the game's story was written by other people. I find it worth noting because despite liking the game a lot, I find it aggressively bland in so many other places like the enemies past the mimics themselves.
Just started the game a few days ago and it is one of the best games I’ve played. And your review video was awesome!!
What an underrated game, it's so much fun but not frustating that made me always want to come back and play it, shame that it won't get a sequel like deadspace did
Commenting for the algorithm
operators
cystoids
mimics
phantom
etheric phantom
thermal phantom
voltaic phantom
nightmare
poltergeist
technopath
turrets
telepath
mind-controlled humans
weavers
Never really agreed that the game lacked enemy types when they are more defined by their abilities and how you face them different'y, mimics and phantoms are easy to beat with a wrench but trying that wrench in zero-g (with imprecise movement and 360 degree manuverability) against a Weaver is much harder.
The algorithm requires engagement!
Woah never expected to get hit by nostalgia so hard (especially when it was only 3 years since I bought and played Prey)
Also "fun" fact: Somehow random copy of this game that I bought, that was in "didn't sell so it's on discount" box in store had still working preorder code for bonuses.
Nice video Vlade.
Let's get this new year started homie!
fresh vlade, nice
That this game sold as badly as it did is criminal.
This game is Paranoia Incarnate, although the Enemy Variety is pretty poor, having to go for Elemental Recolors to add variety, each type of enemy you can find , for the few they are, is genius design, especially the Mimics.
Sure, after a while it cna get repetitive, but you still go with small steps, paying attention to every bit of environment around you.
Why are there 2 trashcans there?
Should there be a 3º chair there?
Oh, 2 pieces of ammo, I was running out of- 'Face devoured by a Mimic'
In my playthrough, I went only with Human Abilities, rejecting the Typhoon ones to keep the Security System on my side.
And I ended maxing all of them once I got the blueprints for the NeuroMod.
It felt like I was playing the Engineered Perfect Human, fighting hordes of aliens and pushing back both through extreme violence, through clever tactics and circumenting problems, and expert stealth.
It is such a dam great game.
Imagine if this was modder friendly like Half-Life.
It would still sell massively.
The opening track "everything is going to be ok" is Mick Gordon's best work.
Game is legendary. Top 5 all time. Mooncrash might be the best dlc, even better than old hunter's.
This game is so genius you can stop the final set of enemies from ever spawning if you are clever enough. That's insane by itself.
Vlad, do you intend to make a video about library of ruina too?
Yes, absolutely. I have already 20 pages worth of script cooking, but LoR will probably be released on a big subscription number for this channel. I've always dreamed that I will publish the Ruina video on 100k subs, but we'll see how it goes.
Thank you for the question!
I hope it reaches 100k quickly then haha
Why you gotta go make me shit myself like that 18:35. Keep up the great work!
6:49 nice Infra reference
Prey 2017 fue una bonita experiencia para mi, siempre me recordó entre una mezcla entre Half Life y Bioshock. Sin duda alguna algo que me enamoro fue el Gloo y como tu mismo nombraste en esta review, como el juego toma notas sobre tus acciones, lo cual cuando termine la historia quede loco. Aunque no tengo comentarios acerca del DLC ya que no me llamo la atención.
Besos y cuídate mucho :)
Foreshadowing of a studio closing..
peak is back on the menu boys
prey is neat but i can't play it because of the crosshair being off-center, the funky viewmodels for the guns and audio issues
I think there's fixes for most of the problems, though not sure about the viewmodel one. Tried any already?
You called it, arkane Austin is no more. :(
Good review hyde kido man
This game reminds me of Deus ex invisible war for the Xbox I unlocked everything un it similar experience but in a good way I haven't felt that nostalgia in one of these immersive Sim games in a long time
I hear nice things being said about Prey 2017 AND Alien Isolation? Thumbs up!
"such a horrible flops" my man, Redfall is horrible fr, but Deathloop is great. I'm writing this while Arkane Austin is closed, but Arkane Lyon (responsible for Deathloop) still has some of the team that made the impeccable Dishonored 2 (like Dinga Bakaba and Dana, that one who made Clockwork Mansion). I don't get why some people hate Deathloop (well, I do, but I'd rather not comment bout lol), but it's one of my favorite games, super fun with a fresh concept, an answer to save scumming, at the very least intriguing.
I love immersive sims, Prey 2017 is one of my all-time favorite games, but it seems like the super nostalgic crowd thinks only the old formula works. Don't forget about the indie immersive sim scene; there are some great new ideas emerging in games like Gloomwood, Cruelty Squad, Skin Deep, Aquametsis, Peripeteia, Corpus Edax and many others.
KINO IS BACK ON THE MENU
Fabricators are the star of the show, no matter how you play you can create something to help you along the way
One of the greatest games ever made. This is already a classic. Atmosphere is there, plot is there, gameplay is there. And soundtrack...
Played on multiple systems and still get an awful audio bug that stops me playing this great game im sure.
Loved that game because it was the only game I know that made you walk into a room and shit yourself at the furniture because you thought it was going to eat you.
Lotta people like to talk about how amazing Prey 2008 was but I played that game back in the day and I have no idea what nostalgia they have for it because I thought that game sucked ass and yet they rag on this Prey for daring to destroy a possible sequel to a mediocre xbox 360 game.
prey the only game that felt someting in my heart not the gameplay but the space amazing experience floting around never felt like ım in game while u playing the game plz listen utopia by travis scott specially in space (sugg me games that let you flot around in space )
Ympäristölähtöinen tarinankerronta
This game is breathtakingly frustrating at points. But the gameplay is very similar to the original bio shock. It’s a interesting game but I’ve already sunk 14 hrs into it and I’m still not done
Just wait til you play MoonCrash hehe
You really overreact to the mimics 😅. Mimics follow rules and are generally easy to sus out. The real tricks they play on you are when you haven't seen one in awhile.
BEST GAME
Great game
DEUS EX
I'll never understand how this barebones, empty, bland, senseless game gains so much traction, and I'll never forgive the fact we didn't get the original Prey 2 from the demo, which would've been amazing.
Fire Metal sonic
Enemy design was so awfull that I didn't buy the game.
Too bad it all went to shit for arkane after this game...
В демократии он, блять, не живёт, бедненький. Видосы пилит, на бусти зарабатывает, страстотерпец, спешите видеть.
another great video from mr posting
i love you
