Prey Game Review

I just started playing this game so I'm only a couple hours in as I am writing this-- I wanted to write a quick post to recommend it because I'm loving it so far (even though I may never get time to finish). You wake up in a futuristic apartment, littered with books and computer screens with hints of the new world of "neuromods." You really have no idea what is going on for a lot of it, since, you know, it's the age of being able to completely rewrite memories and cognitive abilities - so there's this entire future you forgot.

I love the story (so far) and the gameplay/controls are very intuitive (I play on PC). There also seems to be quite a bit of freedom and potential for side quests - I just found a terminal with names and locations of like 20 people around the terminals that I could save if I want, but it doesn't seem like it's part of the main game. I can't wait to see the rest of it, how the monsters progressively get more intense, and how the story develops. 

Some In-Game Screenshots

Couldn't help but snap a pic of this in-game tablet quote on my phone... :) Reminded me too much of the JCS special issue I guest edited last summer. Really cool and interesting to see this specific point represented in pop culture.

Typical battle. They are terribly fast, but it helps to freeze them with "GOO" first.
