A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

I just started Prey. I really liked Dishonored 1 and 2 and I love sci-fi, so I'm looking forward to it.

I really like Prey and feel that it was underrated because of the IP name they used.

I didn't really get into Prey as well as the Dishonored series. They went for a Bioshock kinda thing where you start off weak as fuck and, I guess, become more and more of a badass, but I've been quite a few hours into it and now I got myself into a conundrum I see now way out of, and I have not once felt like a badass so far.

The game really is aptly named, so no hate on Arkane on that one. You are supposed to be a prey, not the ultimate predator of the Dishonored series.

Maybe I'll get back to it because otherwise it's great and they did an awesome job on all the environments, monsters, in-game UI, varied approaches etc.

I just finished Prey and now I'm on Alien: Isolation! I kinda preferred Prey but that's probably because it wasn't so stingy with the saving mechanism.
