I actually really like Alex as a complicated antagonist. Benedict Wong gets the balance so right, striking that sort of caring but dismissive older brother tone.
Just wanna put this out there even if this is an old video. I can agree with your opinion in regards to the Alex being a tragic figure here who just wants his old sibling back. Perhaps the nullwave ending was the canon. Here, due to Morgan installing a pretty significant amount of typhon mods into himself, the nullwave may have also "lobotomised" Morgan along with all the Typhons within Talos 1 space. So he's dead. Perhaps the use of Morgan's cells is a way for Alex to try to bring back his lost sibling again other than the main agenda. Alex went as far as risking his own life to shake a typhon's hand. What happens next is another story.
Damn, i had the same thought about the nullwave killing me as well, because i installed a lot of typhon neuromods. So before activating the nullwave, i put on the nullwave shield chipset, dont know if it affects the ending or not
I don't think that the nullwave device can kill a Typhon-empowered Morgan. For a simple reason: the device attacks specifically the Coral, which is pretty much an external neural network for the entire Typhon race. Morgan is not dependent by it to exist, because he is still a human with its own brain.
@@mattmark94 I wouldn't be so sure. In mooncrash we learn that they had been developing kill towers that eliminate every Typhon in a certain range, which also kills anyone with a significant amount of Typhon Neuromods. Maybe the Nullwave works differently but I wouldn't be so sure
@@mattmark94 funny. Remember when we used "phoning it in" as an expression of low effort? I know the audio team always wants crystal clear master recordings if they're professionals. They add the filters over lines the player will hear in game, like the static, artifacts, to make it feel immersive. With today's technology you can get really good recording quality over remote sessions. Good enough for the final product like the setting of Prey. A few compression artifacts wouldn't hurt the immersion, lol.
8:33 Ohhh. That explains the email on Thomas Tuckers computer. I thought it was strange that there was a mention of his compensation package, but no clue what it was for.
34:30 This is honestly sad, after hearing this you begin to realise all he ever wanted to do was save his little brother. Edit: I Just remembered you can play as a female, I should play as her on my next run.
Watching the Martian right now and I immediately recognized Alex's actor in it... it's kinda odd since I've never seen him before, played through Prey only once, and the guy was on screen for about 6 seconds as far as I know. He's got a very distinctive voice
yeah, hes also wong from the mcu. he's been in a lot of stuff that i never even realized before playing prey tbh. once i got this attached to him, his voice is just that recognizable.
9:06 The funny thing is in the Mooncrash DLC you find its an absolute sintch to destroy a Typhon if you have enough ammo. Security should have been able to handle things.
I could be wrong about which lines are unused, it's hard to tell. I assumed that this was unused because technically Alex isn't the one responsible for taking down the main lift.
You find it in a Mitsuko Tokaji's office in psychotronics, you can get it from outside the room through the window. And to unlock the door you have to shoot the terminal with the huntress boltcaster.
2:16 и вправду не понятно к кому относится. Может это вырезанная реплика после просмотра видео полностью из первого задания? Он говорит это про версию Морган-Январь. Что Морган-Декабрь был гораздо интереснее и не таким козлом. "Morgan. Don't listen to her. She's an asshole. The older version of you is a lot more interesting. I would like to introduce you at some point. For now, you should sit tight. " - мой мозг взорвался после этой фразы.
I do have an unlisted video with his voice lines at ua-cam.com/video/ag7E_WqeLAY/v-deo.html, but I've been meaning to redo it with the lines in order for a while. Unfortunately I've been caught up in work and other things for a while, but I do hope to get around to it eventually.
Thanks for the upload, was really looking forward to this. Interesting to note that at 31:40, male january has a line that refers to morgan as 'sister' and 'her'. Does female january have a 'brother' line for male morgan?
Yes, but strangely they're not by the same voice actor, or they're text-to-speech. Here's an example: soundcloud.com/ki-da-641058942/13680621263369931846wem/s-jl5ts
maybe at one point January had a unique voice but then eventually they decided to make Morgan and January's voices the same meaning they needed to give female January a different voice

He really is one of the best. It's to the point to where I heard him talk in the marvel movies and I just thought of Alex.

@@liamdalemon1525 also in Mooncrush ending we found out that it doesn't matter which ending is canon, typhons infected Earth anyway
One of the best voices in Hollywood right now
Then there’s that cringey ass Moon Crash impression.
Hmm?@@Dennis-up8uf
@@saltyseadog4719 in Mooncrash (Prey's DLC) there's a different voice actor for Alex
Benedict Wong was a perfect casting
But we have to deal with that cringey impression in Moon Crash.
@@Dennis-nc3vw They didn't even ask Wong to do Mooncrash.
@SlyKing appearently Wong was too busy with Infinity War and Endgame and he couldn't come in time to record his new lines.

january the operator said hes gonna help me stay alive but im playing on story difficulty 💀

Same, I was watching Annihilation and recognized his voice immediately in the prologue.
yeah, hes also wong from the mcu. he's been in a lot of stuff that i never even realized before playing prey tbh. once i got this attached to him, his voice is just that recognizable.
I specifically need the one where he talks to Morgan soon after she gets the Psychoscope.
9:06

2:07 probably what he used to say after interrupting the video
I never would have guessed Wong was Chinese or British. His accent sounds like some kind of New Yorker to me.
I always get Morgan and Alex mixed up, their parents love gender-neutral names.
Hey there! Thank you for uploading all this! Can you also upload the "Luka Golubkin"'s voice lines?
Certainly, I've been working on Luka and January for a little while. =]
@@ShapeintheGlass0451 Oh, can't wait to hear them!
Benedict Wong
its strange, he's british but he doesn't sound it as Alex, such a distinctive voice as him
"Morgan. If you're going to risk your life, then you might as well put the discoveries we've made to good use." - лаборатория психотрорики?
Wow this sounds nothing like Benedict Wong
That fucker blew me up
I blew myself up too
Dude you got confused with the chef
You forgot Alex's toast at the music thing.
2:40 "That's why I've taken the main lift offline. Try not to get yourself killed." Я слышала эту реплику в игре. Один раз. Может это был баг?
I could be wrong about which lines are unused, it's hard to tell. I assumed that this was unused because technically Alex isn't the one responsible for taking down the main lift.
Benedict Wong is awesome
What about the alex lines for the mooncrash dlc
7:15
Was this in the game!?

Блин. Кто-нибудь. Включайтесь в обсуждение(
Mr shape can I ask a question.
Absolutely!
The voice lines about volunteer 37 have you done them yet?

Ah ok
Hey hey it's the most hated guy in the game :")
I knew something was up at the beginning of the game hh
How do I unlock (?) the “Dahl executes Alex” transcribe?
It was probably cut content
