Pros
- Overall, I am surprised at how much I liked this game. Why didn't I play Immersive Sims sooner? I'll probably buy Mooncrash later.
- I'm no stranger to scrounging for supplies in games. I like Bioshock, Prey, and Metro.
- Parent context: For me I think the thing that stings with Prey is that it represents the last big budget immersive sim we've seen. Bethesda just sent it out to die and now it, along with Dishonored 2, gets used to push the idea that imme...
- Aside from that it's a really solid immersive sim and proba
- I'd argue Prey is as close to perfection in a game as any could come, and so it's no wonder I'd decided to revisit what I'd consider the top of its (limited) class.
Cons
- My only gripe with the game is the terrible audio mixing on the ps4/5 (I think thats whats its called?). Every scene where a character would tslk on the radio would be too loud but they would be too quiet in person. The lounge with the m...
- Parent context: I’m with you on Prey. I really like the Dishonored series so I thought I’d love this but I didn’t. The spaceship looks great, the voice acting and intro were awesome. I just hated how you couldn’t explore the ship because...
- Prey - wanted to love it but couldn't.
- When prey launched I suddenly remembered this game lol.

I love the fact the game didn't tell me this, it really respects your intelligence and gives you agency to play as you wish. If you're smart and like to use the environment at your favor and enjoy a good mysterious story, Prey is for you.
The books of his I loved were Jurassic Park, Timeline, Sphere and Prey.
Michael Chrichton in general is so good! I would also suggest Prey because of the nanomachines.
Prey is honestly one of the best games to come out in the last ten years. Immsims are such a great genre that I really wish would get another chance in the big leagues.
My only gripe with the game is the terrible audio mixing on the ps4/5 (I think thats whats its called?). Every scene where a character would tslk on the radio would be too loud but they would be too quiet in person. The lounge with the music perfornance was INSANELY loud too :(. Its a shame this game didnt have a dialogue volume slider.
