Best game I've played in a loooong time

I may be a little biased, having played the 'immersive sim' games before I even realised they were even called 'immersive sims' (talking 2002 onwards). To be honest, Prey starts out intriguing but a little flat. But as soon as I started to notice the call backs to the classics such as the shock series and even with a plotline that echoes the transhumanism of Deus Ex, it really kicked up a notch... And about two-thirds of the way through starts to fall flat again, as you can basically see the plot line rolling itself out. But honestly, Arkane have done a great job of coming close to capturing that sense of dread and excitement I felt playing System Shock 2 or Bioshock for the first time, and no studio has really captured since. The atmosphere is great, and the station can be really fun to navigate once you've opened it up. My only gripe is that I am starting to get tired of the whole US-centric historical art style these 'immersive sims' always go for - It is starting to feel to me like what wall-hugging mechanics became to shooters - more of a 'art deco influenced design... check!' - why not try, for example, the brutalist style for a change... Maybe minecraft's already tried that... But I digress... The story, while slightly predictable, especially if you've played similar games, was good enough to keep me hooked. There is a pervading sense of mystery, and the thought that there is something bigger going on behind the scenes is somewhat artfully peppered throughout. Makes it worth it for the playthroughs to see if you can pick up the bread crumbs. The bad is only minor annoyances, but I will say this - There were some points when I felt like the game was pushing a bit of a social agenda. Not that I necessarily disagree, but I play games to escape reality, not feel like reality's being surreptitiously wafted under my nose, especially when it feels like it's been shoe-horned in - at least that's how it 'feels' - not saying it is. Other than that, great game!

System Shock is back!

This is System Shock 3. Something I had no hopes to see, but here it is! It's perfect. I just wish I found it earlier.

It's not for me

I get the main appeal of this game is the supposed liberty of action, the different ways to tackle problems, and the free exploration of the space station. Also having a story that revolves around mystery and quite some jumpscares. But for me, I find more engaging stories, liberty and tools in other games, like Deus Ex Human Revolution, that are far better than this game The story is more or less clear in your mind when you have played 25% of the whole game, with a couple of plot twists that you aren't expecting. But they either don't change much, or they change it for worse. This is one of the few games that I decided I was not going to bother finishing. So I uninstalled it and watched the endings on Youtube. And it was more satisfying than playing through a lot of areas that are mostly there to make the game longer than it needs to be. In fact, I'd say that exploration is excessive, and not rewarding enough (because I felt forced to play it by the need to finish what I started, rather than enjoying discovery) So yeah: - Too long for what it is worth - A story that fails to engage the player to make him go through all those areas - Not so much liberty in my opinon. Deus Ex games are far better at that - That much freedom and options in the story are rather pointless. Do not ask for spoilers. - Retrofuturism is not my thing (personal opinion) - You can figure the main plot for the most part, except a few plot twists that ruin the freedom you have.
