"The Bioshock sequel the Bioshock fan doesn't deserve because they didn't play it":
Prey is a game I put in the "I can't believe this game exists" category. Every department on this game is firing on all cylinders delivering a cohesive, extremely well thought out, beautiful experience. The setting of this game is so well realized and crafted in a way to feel like a real, tangible place.
IMO, this is the best sci-fi game ever made, the best game from the xbox one/ps4 gen that nobody played, and top 5 greatest games of all time.
We will never get another game like this again, unfortunately. This game got swept under the rug by the "open world craze" from the x1/ps4 gen and it didnt perform the way it needed to.. The studio lost 75% of staff with redfall.
People like to say the game's title was the core of the issue which is retarded. The IP was completely irrelevant at the time. If Ken Levine dickriders couldnt gather that the game was like Bioshock at some capacity when marketing promos are showing you using a wrench, then they werent going to respond positively to Neuroshock.
The people behind the product are more valuable than the product itself. See Halo for more details.

This is one of the best immersive sim games, more suitable for players prefer slower pace game. Overall it requires some patience to observe the surrounding, understand the enemy, decide the approach and there are always multiple ways to handle enemies and situations effectively. It has great replay value as different builds' style are very different.
It puzzles me why a game with such quality didn't sell as well as it should. Is this really because immersive sim is a niche genre? It looks like after this game, Arkane is trying to combine other elements such as multiplayer with immersive sim and failed catastrophically. Probably it would be best to control budget and work on a mid-sized pure immersive sim game.
Achievements in this game requires multiple play through. This is not a bad thing as some beauty of this game can only be experienced after being forced to use different ways to tackle the challenges. Just for a reference, my first run of main game took 40 hours, then the next 3 runs took 50 hours to complete all achievements in the main game. The DLC took me 30 hours for many runs to complete everything. Just remember that 5 success escape in the same run will reset DLC status. Make sure you are really ready before doing that.

Damn...
First thing you should know about this game is that its not a casual one. You can't put 1-2 hours in it and play it again after 2-3 days. That was my mistake. I own this game for a couple of years now. Tried to play it twice, but i stopped at about 5 hours in. It got complicated. Messy. Demanding. I was trying to focus at the story but i was getting new stuff and info at a rate that it became exhausting so i dropped it. Twice.
This time though, i persisted. And boy oh boy was i surprised.
After the first 15 hours, as i was upgrading my skills and weaponry, the immersion started to kick in. The plot got thicker. And as it did, i started to invest even more brain matter into it. And then i realized that i was playing an underrated gem, worthy of being up there with Bioshock, Dead space and Dishonored.
Although the story/gameplay/mechanics are great, the game still managed to piss me off, big time. So many side missions. I understand now that the choices i made throughout those side missions had a defining role towards the end, but still, it had me running around an entire space station like an damn errant boy. SO effing annoying. That was a big no no for me, but in retrospect, even that part was overshadowed by the positive elements of the game.
I could go on, but as far as i'm concerned, as a gamer for over 25 years, this is a classic, worth every single cent.

How is this the same studio that made Redfall?
Guess most of this team left cause ain't no way

if gloo cannon has a million fans, im one of them
if gloo cannon has 5 fans, im one of them
if gloo cannon has 1 fan, that fan is me
if gloo cannon has no fans, im no longer alive
if the world is against gloo cannon im against the entire world
till my last breath, ill support gloo cannon
devastating that this game will likely never get a sequel
