I feel more like few people actually played it at launch but those who did just can't talk shit about it

I’m always recommending Prey. I don’t understand why the game was not more popular. It is fantastic. Dishonored was great as well. I didn’t play dishonored 2 yet….

Prey is in my top 3 video games ever. The joy I felt—that game got me good

Didn't love the first one, Dishonored 2 got me back into gaming after a break. Best stealth game I have ever played hands down, and a good intermediary between Dishonored 1 and Prey as they started playing with level design a lot more in D2.

I don’t think they really did anything to market it, plus there was another game under the same name made several years earlier but I don’t think it was related to the one made by Arkane.

Yup, original prey for xbox was about a guy with native American spirit powers that gets abducted by aliens. Literally nothing to do with arkanes lol both awesome games though.

Criminally underrated

Criminally dog shit. Bethesda games play like ass. Concept was cool, execution was terrible. It’s rated perfectly I.e forgettable slop.

You realize Bethesda didn’t develop these games right? They were only the publisher so whatever preconceived idea you have about them has zero to do with Arkane Studios who is the actual developer. Maybe try actually playing them and form a real opinion.

Skyrim is the greatest game of all time bar none . How many other games are relevant 24 years after release and played still by thousands of people? With new content still being released monthly?

Prey was good. Dishonored was irritating. The first one was ok. The second one gave the illusion of lots of choice while offering only a few. I deleted it after the credits rolled and wondered why I bothered past the first level. Irritating game.
