PREY to be Best game of 2017?

And heres the reason why.

• First off its not standard FPS game. its Immersive sim in the vien of System shock. it has RPG elements and Deep and complex level design. something that was missing in last generation.
• Arkane is a great studio who knows how to make immersive sim. it has people from looking glass studio.It play like Old school FPS/Immersive sim games. with no regen health, cover mechanic, weapon limit and fully inventory system unlike the early prey 2 which always looks terrible. with cover, regen health, see through walls. I never understood why people were excited for that and dissapointed by this.
• It has unique Gameplay mechanics like turning into coffee cup we may have not seen in FPS games before.

there it is. people consider bioshock infinite as system shock successor but the way i see. PREY is true successor. no more non sense heavily scripted mechanics.

the way i see. i think this is what gaming need today. this is modern day System shock. I see Highly anticipated games of 2017 like mass effect or red dead redemption 2 eaten by todays market because of background developer logo.

This is the game of 2017 that need more attention. I think this will be easily best game of 2017. what do you think?

discuss

"Prey" is the new "Doom" , brace yourselves for more Prey threads :P

Anyways, yeah it has the potential given that Arkane is the dev, but my bet is on Mass Effect Andromeda

lol NO.

Maybe best shooter though

Looks cool. Has as much of a chance as anything else at this point. I dunno about Red Dead, but I've lost all faith that BioWare can deliver a decent game.

Too early to say, but Zelda and Divinity 2 have very large sex appeal.

zelda is same as always been and very milked franchise.

Milked would be applicable to something like Assassins Creed, a game which has been spammed relentlessly with little regard for quality or franchise reputation, slowly but steadily diminishing.

Zelda has never really had that problem, neither has Mario and they have been around much longer.

Critics might love it, but for me personally, I'm looking at this with sceptical eye. System Shock 2 wannabes over years tend to disappoint.

Already, I have concerns about what I'm seeing so far; it seems to have the gameplay and atmosphere of SS2 down, but it just doesn't look very terrifying, and SS2 was all about f***ing with your head.

Possibly, but for me it has strong competition in the form of the next Mass Effect game. Also Resident Evil 7 could surprise us, but I doubt it could garner GOTY status.

After watching that generic gameplay video... No. Lost almost all interest.

Game looks hardly a generic.

cancelled prey 2 looked more and more generic with cover and regen health.

It looks good but the best game of 2017? lets calm the **** down.

No, It does look really generic. Been trapped on an abandoned ship full of aliens, is something we've seen a million times before, and they don't seem to be doing anything particularly special with it. Instead they've just thrown all the generic powers that games like Dishonored and Bioshock have and called it a day.

setting might be generic but GAMEPLAY is anything but generic.

difference is bioshock is incredibly linear and scirpted while this game has deep level design. plus RPG elements too.

How many games in last few years that were closer to system shock?

That last gameplay video I've seen looks really good

Well the last Prey did run on the Doom 3 engine :P

The game is looking good, no doubt. There is stiff competition for 2017 though.

Gameplay wise, the Bioshock games are closer to System Shock than System Shock 2.

Bioshock 2 probably has the most complex level design, and generally the best in that series when all the aids are turned off, while Bioshock: Infinite is the most linear, with the illusion of a large environment similar to Halflife 2.

System Shock 2's level design is comparatively simplified compared to System Shocks. Certainly, it has RPG elements and different ways to play, but just a quick glance of a guide will show how complex System Shock was.

The main thing System Shock 2 and Bioshock share is the plot whole sale copy pasted.

No. The series The Legend of Zelda still exists. Might be a good FPS though. Best game of 2017? I really don't think so.

Prey is looking good imo

lol

But yeah, Andromeda will Rule !!!

It would take a lot to top FFXV.

it will be another mass effect 3 where critics praise it to best thing ever and fans hated it.

Nope. The majority of people like Mass Effect, sales show that. Just like the majority like Call Of Duty, or Skyrim.

It's a loud minority.

yeah but doesnot make mass effect good.

also fans hated mass effect 3 compare to 2.

mass effect 4 will be gears of war 4 with dialouges system. except gears of war has better shooting mechanics while mass effect neither a good RPG nor a Good shooter.

This, it looks really generic and boring.

explain to me what is so generic about this game??

Explain to me what Deep level design is?

If you hype it? No. You only hype generic and super casual games.

I'm not even sure what that means.

Good game yes best not even close

@ghosts4ever: Exactly how do you know it has "deep and complex level design"? How many levels of it have you played?

COUGH!!! mass effect

Divinity 2 will be amazing, but the internet would implode if it won GOTY.

Mass Effect Andromeda.

And your posts are all predictable shit, so it should be right of your alley, sniper.

Take a look at this

It based on exploration, finding ways, big open ended level design. more akin to old school game like Deus Ex, System shock and Thief.

now look at this what people were excited about

while this cancelled crappy game looks too much hand holding, cover system, see thorugh walls, regen health etc.

when it was originally shown I always hated it. and now i see what PREY they are working on. im so glad bathesda cancelled this crap and work on immersive sim.

@ghosts4ever: It's 8 minutes guy. Remember how crazy you were getting before Mankind Divided launched? Turned out to be step down from Human Revolution you said afterwards. Let the game come out before calling it best at anything

Prey 2 looked better. Anyways, GOTY 2017 is already decided:

So, there are some similarities after all :D

@cainetao11: For real, he talks about games that hasn't even been released and just trashes them and say it won't win best game but Prey will...lol. Prey looks cool; no doubt, but best game of 2017? Doubt it...

You have some heavy contenders next year, Mass Effect, Red Dead Redemption 2, Zelda, etc...

Nope P5

lol @ Scalebound for goty

Not even in my top 20 list even if we ignore how bethesda fucked over prey 2's studio.

The game has some of the most uninspired and meh enemy design I've seen, it won't be horrible but it'd be sub par with hipsters like you praising and dick riding it.

If the PREY revival is GOTY i'll shave my head and drink bleach live on Twitch.

You don't need a make a thread for every badass and hardcore game coming out you know.

This doesn't like fun unless you're playing PropHunt

Not to mention the idea that enemies can be anything doesn't sound like it will be FUN gameplay. You'll just be spending tons of hours beating down every trash can you come by. I'm in this huge wait and see for this. Some aspects look like fun, some don't.

Why are you disagreeing with your alt, sniper?

Prey looks very boring and generic, nothing caught my eye about it.

I'm not sure I like the concept of these shadow enemies. If you didn't show me the enemies I would say was Alien Isolation so does look a bit generic. The mass shifting mechanic looks interesting. Overall I'm not impressed so far.

I'm starting to think the threads you make are just as much of a waste of bandwidth as gpuking threads.

But Arkane have never made a sim, and Prey isn't one either.
