Thought the same thing about the combat looking Souls-ish. I'm always hoping for more devs to make souls-type games but it all comes down to the quality of combat and environments. Lords of the Fallen was a decent enough souls-ish game but I couldn't even be bothered finishing The Surge mainly because of the environments. Just bland and uninteresting.
The narrator - sounds like the devs just accepted the first person who said they would do it. Walk into Home Depot - Dev walks up to Bill the friendly cashier, Dev: "Hey Bill do you want to narrate a video game?" Bill: "Sure".
Agreed. Too many people these days always trying to suck the fun out of the room.
Beautiful looking game. I hope the game play lives up to the graphics and art design.
It amazes me how some developers make you think the Unity engine is about the ugliest engine out there but then you have games like this running on it that show how nice looking it can be.
I'm holding out on digging into this game until 1.3 but I'm looking forward to it. I played maybe the first hour at launch and liked what I played but felt like I needed to wait for some updates before really diving in. The save and exit feature in 1.3 is a big deal for me since I can't dedicate unknown amounts of hours in-between saves.

Yeh I'm not doubting the work he put into it. I'm just saying it doesn't look as good. That's a testament to the original game considering it was released nearly 2 years ago on an even older engine and he using using a modern engine to mimic it.
Doesn't hold a candle to the real thing: https://drawn2digital.devia...
Please stop the fanboy stuff. Just be a gamer. Consoles and PC's aren't football teams.
I'm quite glad UBI giving the series an extra year break is paying off. Hopefully they decide to stay that path.
Crap. New Civ expansion. Time to drop EVERYTHING.
I'm glad to hear people are finally starting to get tired of it. I grew up with an Atari and NES and everything that followed. This graphics of that era were the best they could do back then and it was great, but to intentionally make stuff that looks like something you scrapped off the bottom of your shoe? No thanks. Making games ugly somehow became endearing and a fad - bleh.
I like how you have 0 disagrees. Extremely uncommon on N4G, but not on this issue.
Oops I hope I didn't jinx it.
I loved Isolation but I never finished it - I've always intended to but it's like diving back into hell intentionally.
I know it's the die hard fan in me but I have never seen a bad alien film, even though 3 was just okay at best. It's kinda like Dark Souls for me. Dark Souls 2 is my least-liked of the series but even that is still a great game compared to most games.
"Purial" - cool new way of spelling plural? Sorry to go grammar police on you, but I had to google it to make sure it wasn't some word I had never heard of.
Well I don't know what position individual members had but "The development team includes industry veterans who've worked on various high-profile titles, including BioShock Infinite, Metroid Prime 3, Neverwinter, and City of Heroes" - per IGN. And read on another site that someone among them also worked on Star Trek Online, for what it's worth.
"Dark Souls Remastered will not include new assets based on the Dark Souls 3 engine"
Is it just my my poor reading comprehension or does this quote sound like they are also retracting the statement about the remaster being built on the DS3 engine?
YEEEESSSSS.
I couldn't agree more. I thought it was a fantastic game. Like you imply, I actually think the name "Prey" ended up being a detriment to what the game was more than anything else. If you can play the game without attaching it to memories of the old Prey it's 9/10 at the very least. I was engrossed the entire game and that's not something most games pull off for me these days.
Can you elaborate? Curious why since I'd never even heard of this game until this article.
