Prey is just gonna be another Doom clone, but trying to be scary. Too much story, slow pace, terrible generic shooter. Like Dead Space.
If anything the reboot Prey looks like it's trying to be a sequel System Shock. Wow, not like we had enough of those already. Best of luck to the developers though.CritialGaming said:
Prey not going to be anything like Doom. Arkane Studios is all about creating games allowing for player creativity first and foremost. The game will basically be like Dishonored in space. The combat will probably be more "intensive" considering it should be more like a shooter than a stealth game; however, I expect there to be solutions to every encounter that don't boil down to just shoot until dead. Just check out any StealthGamerBR Dishonored Youtube video and I expect a very similar level a player creativity in Prey. Arkane is sorta the only dev making games like this, especially in the triple-A market. What other dev focuses on open-endedness, player creativity, and quality over quantity nowadays?CritialGaming said:

This game looks aaaaaaaight. It ain't gonna revolutionize gamin or nuthin but it looks like it'll be fun. Probably pick it up ina steam sale further down the line.
The complete and total lack of identifiable physiology in the enemies are a total turn off though. Nothing in their design resonates anything in me, leastwise fear. Also, the "turn into small object" part of the gameplay is also shallow and probably shouldn't be harped on any more. Mechanically, it's no different than morph balling in the first person Metroids or turning into a rat in Dr. Muto. It ain't new at all.
The weapons are pretty cool though, especially that foam gun thing. Reminds me of the black blobs Syndrome used to capture Mr Incredible (2:15 mark)
The only thing keeping me remotely interested in this game is the fact it's being written by Chris Avellone, so here's hoping there's some narrative quality to be found in it.
