6 - Prey: Welcome to my Orbital Lair

Join Josh (@boshj) and Brian (@spocks_brian) as they dive into the ambitious 2017 space-station spoop-fest Prey! They talk the joys of fake-out openings, the pitfalls of immersive combat, and the sticky beauty of a good ole fashioned GLOO cannon. They also delve into the depths of the infamous Bethesda/Kotaku brouhaha of the mid 2010s and the enduring push/pull between developers and game journalists.

Prey actually suffered because they didn’t change the name in my case. I got the first one and hated it when it came out; the deranged spirit quest aspect was so jarring I couldn’t stick with it. Then Prey 2 came out and I specifically skipped it because of the first one + the marketing gave no indicator it had literally no resemblance beyond the name.

I love Prey and Arkane, mayhap a "The Boys Hunt Vampires Together" Redfall coop stream night in the future?
