Prey Is Everything Bethesda Does Right (And Wrong)

Right off I’m just going to say if you love Bethesda games, you will love Prey, and I suppose the opposite is true also.

I bet this is just a "preview" of the BETA.

This is a review of the first hour . The author of article made a comment at the bottom of article . All you have to do is click on the article and scroll down to read authors comment .

maxxco3301d ago

I think it is a comparison to other Bethesda games, as the title suggests. Did you read it?

Goldby3301d ago

but the title also states its a review of prey, which isn't out yet, so its a review of the beta, or a click bait article trying to get traffic as the first to review it

amazinglover3299d ago

When articles have the title everything such and such does right (and Wrong) I just assume click bait. Regardless of the outlet it comes from since I gave yet to read an actual in depth article with such title.

Point taken, removed "review" from story title.

Goldby3301d ago

article isn't fixed yet, you still need to change it from review to preview.

there are no retail copies of the game out in the wild, and if you guys do have a copy, you need to disclose how you got it

blackphosphor3301d ago

Got it, changed the category to "preview". Didn't know that was what you were referring to.

"Right off I’m just going to say if you love Bethesda games, you will love Prey"

Wrong.

Christopher3300d ago (Edited 3300d ago )

Disingenuous to call this a 'Bethesda' game. They are merely the publisher (well, ZeniMax is, their parent company). Arkane Studios deserves the praise or complaints of the game.

Bethesda games: Fallout 4, Skyrim

Arkane Studios games: Dishonored 1/2, Prey

***Right off I’m just going to say if you love Bethesda games, you will love Prey***

As shown above, Bethesda games are completely different than Arkane Studios games. So, not sure how one can make an assumption like this. And, by reporting it this way, gamers will be expecting a game more like Fallout or Skyrim than Dishonored.

***Solving puzzles and tasks can be accomplished in a variety of ways, you are never quite sure what this the weapon I should have used?***

Other than the obvious error at the end of that sentence, when you say something like this you should provide an example. Furthermore, it shows that you don't understand that the purpose of the game is to not be limited to using specific weapons in specific situations.

Sciurus_vulgaris3300d ago

Arkane Studios is owned by Bethesda.

Christopher3300d ago

Nope. ZeniMax owns both Bethesda and Arkane Studios. Bethesda is its own development studio entirely and does not have any ownership in Arkane Studios, the parent company does.

showtimefolks3300d ago

Actually Arkane Studio got a 2nd team which is going prey and they have gotten help from Bethesda

Zenimax id the parent consent but Bethesda is publishing many games. They are owned but act independent

Just like Sony Santa Monica is owned by Sony yet they do help publish games under them

Christopher3300d ago

Not sure how this affects anything I've said. Did you mean to reply to someone else?

showtimefolks3299d ago

Sorry auto correction on phones messes up a lot for some reason

My main point was that Bethesda acts as independent from Zenimax even though it's owned by Zenimax

Bethesda is known as a huge company and not many know about Zenimax

Arkane Co-Founder Says Dishonored and Prey Fans 'Will Be Happy' With His Next Game

WolfEye Studios president and co-founder of Arkane Studios Raphaël Colantonio has said Dishonored and Prey fans “will be happy” with his new studio's next game.

Marcus Fenix646d ago

Can’t wait to see what they’re working on

Relientk77646d ago

If it's something like Dishonored, then I am totally here for it.

TheNamelessOne646d ago

Let's hope. Their first game, Weird West, really wasn't my thing.

Miacosa646d ago

Ouch, already placing a sales cap on this is potentially bad as these games never seem to sell all too well. Hopefully the budget is in check so no one gets laid off after launch.

Psychonaut85645d ago

Fuck yeah. Even if it’s just a spiritual successor I want more titles like Dishonored in terms of art style, design and gameplay

All Hopes I Had For A Prey Sequel Have Been Crushed — Well Done, Microsoft

The magnificent Prey was once again abandoned as Microsoft disregarded Arkane Austin's achievements and crucified it just for Redfall.

RaidenBlack734d ago

well, not entirely ... the main Arkane studio i.e Arkane Lyon's still there ...
Its only that, the sequel will take more time now ... after Blade & Dishonored 3

MrBaskerville733d ago

But who knows, Dishonored 3 could have been Austins next project, so might be cancelled.

RaidenBlack732d ago

Dishonored is Lyon's flagship IP ... Austin only assisted in the first one, the sequel was wholly developed at Lyon whilst Austin developed Prey.
If Dishonored 3 was indeed greenlit ... rest assured, it would've been helmed primarily by the Lyon studio.

-Foxtrot734d ago (Edited 734d ago )

Not even this Prey

Still longing for a sequel to the original Prey with Tommy

The studio didn't even want to call this Prey, it was just Bethesda being dicks to them for some reason.

RaidenBlack734d ago

MS closed Roundhouse Studios (ex-Human Head Studios) as well

Yui_Suzumiya733d ago

Yeah, that's who was going to do the original sequel.

bunt-custardly733d ago

Don't worry there are some other games in development that might fill that void. Look up Vigilancer.

isarai734d ago

Came here to say this, my hooes for a Prey sequel died when this "Prey" came out

Profchaos733d ago

Prey 2017 still hurts to play because what could have been looked so incredible

Profchaos733d ago

Same Bethesda basically screwed over the original developer team human head back around 2011 so it was really never going to come despite a honestly amazing trailer. I liked prey 2017 but it always held a stink of disappointment due to what we never got

FinalFantasyFanatic733d ago

I really didn't like this game, tried it because of how loved the original Prey was, played the demo of this one and thought it was garbage, it didn't feel nice/fun to play.

LostPotato734d ago (Edited 734d ago )

Keep dreaming then as Prey and Dishonored 2 did not sell well enough to get sequels.

Hence we got Deathloop and Redfall instead.

RaidenBlack734d ago

lol, Deathloop came from Prey: Mooncrash idea

Unknown_Gamer5794733d ago

To everyone who cheered MS’s acquisitions, we told you so…

Inverno733d ago

Those people will just argue that Arkane Austin and Tango would've been shut down either way.

MrBaskerville733d ago

Zenimax allready put them in a tight spot by demanding them to do a multiplayer title. So it's not unlikely, considering how bad the game performed. They didn't stand a chance. MS had the money to save them and to correct Zenimax' mistakes.
