Prey – PC and Console Trial
Don’t miss the mind-bending sci-fi adventure that some critics are already calling the “best game of 2017.” If you’re a PC gamer and haven’t yet played Prey, now you have the perfect opportunity. Starting today, the critically acclaimed game from the masterminds at Arkane Studios will be available as a PC trial for the first-time ever.
Also today, Prey will shift from a demo to a trial on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. That means anyone who wants to test out Prey ahead of a purchase can retain their progress along with any Trophies/Achievements earned during the trial.
Recently, Arkane Studios also released update 1.05, which addresses more than 30 fixes to a range of issues, including the screen-tearing that has affected a portion of the PlayStation audience. Check out the patch notes for a full list of all the fixes in Update 1.05.
In Prey, you awaken aboard Talos I, a space station orbiting the moon in the year 2032. You are the key subject of an experiment meant to alter humanity forever – but things have gone terribly wrong. The space station has been overrun by hostile aliens and you are now being hunted. As you dig into the dark secrets of Talos I and your own past, you must survive using the tools found on the station, your wits, weapons, and mind-bending abilities.
It's good for what it is. Could do with stronger atmosphere but I sure had more fun playing it than any other game in recent memory. I'll probably replay at some point too, first run was human powers + 2 alien convenience skills - level 1 mimic for getting through tight spaces and level 1 phantom shift for dealing with those damn Cystoids. Next time proper "mage" run.
Too bad it takes a good while until you get a Psychoscope (2 hours or so for an average player?), might be interesting to see how quickly that can be rushed but I bet you still have to run past a lot of monsters and solve a bunch of linear shit.
Well, this thread is pretty positive by the Codex standards, and if you remove cyberp's ramblings (many of which are justified, mind it), game's overall score would go up immensely
I read that you can.Does anyone know if you can continue your save game from the demo if you decide to buy the full game?

Well, I didn't mean I wouldn't be taking any of the human upgrades anyway. Until alien powers come into play might as well get some Hacking, Repair, etc.
Personally I'd scale crafting material costs with difficulty alongside neuromod costs like the higher difficulties in SS2, but this might be worth checking out.
Not really, it's just that the folks who disliked the game have been far more active and vocal in this thread (you being an example).Well, this thread is pretty positive by the Codex standards, and if you remove cyberp's ramblings (many of which are justified, mind it), game's overall score would go up immensely
There has been just as many people expressing disappointment as there have been perfectly content with the game or middling. Don't be disingenuous.
Overall it's a 7 or 8/10. Good for what it is. Don't let any cuck tell you otherwise.
