Prey - The Most Underrated Game Of All Time

Prey - The Most Underrated Game Of All Time
Arkane Studios 2017 game Prey is what I would consider the most underrated game of all time. Not only is the base game prey and it's dlc mooncrash expansion my favorite journey in gaming, but also one that does not get talked about enough. While there are underground and niche fans, the game is a masterpiece that should have been played by a lot more players than did.
In this video I discuss what about the gameplay and design mechanics makes prey so great, along with the engaging and mysterious narrative about space akin to Bioshock, Deus Ex, System Shock, and Half Life.

I've been playing Prey for the past few months and don't want it to end. One of the most atmospheric and deep games I've ever played. I am compelled to explore every single nook and cranny of Talos 1. I don't want this game to end! Thank you for making this video, hopefully more people will become aware of this underrated masterpiece.

[@FranklyGaming]

It’s so amazing I’m so happy it’s on gamepass because I have seen a lot more people talking about it. Thanks for watching some of the other videos too dude it’s super fun hearing others opinion too

[@Dokushin1989]

Agreed!

[@mateusspadari5171]

Bro, you basically summed up everything i feel about this game... it's basically a work of art!

I’m so happy people are still finding this game and making videos like this.

[@FranklyGaming]

Hey man thanks so much for taking the time to watch and comment! Ya I really love prey this is actually the first video I did as I started my new style of youtube videos, it really is such a great game and up there with my other favorites mass effect and cyberpunk 2077. I can't wait to try out Deathloop and Redfall

[@ElJorro]

This game seriously needs more respect.

[@FranklyGaming]

Super happy it’s on game pass now so way more people will have easy access to play now. Thanks for watching!

[@elephantshelf3617]

I played the hell out of System Shock 1/2 and the Bioshock series. I bought Prey a year or so back and haven’t put more than an hour into it. This video made me pick it back up and I’m so glad I did. It’s one of those games you day dream about when you’re not playing it hahaha. Awesome video and channel, dude!

[@FranklyGaming]

Hey dude thanks for watching and really appreciate the kind words! Ya I had a similar experience haha first time didn’t get into it and then when I tried it later I was like “oh wait wtf this game is actually amazing”. Thanks again for the support

Nowadays people like chewed games, easy games, games like interactive movies where the game shows you every button and every single path and you just have to move on. I recommended it to some friends, and they just get stuck and stop playing. this game is very underrated and a masterpiece game, as a game really should be. Perfect review, more players should see this video and give Prey a chance

@@FranklyGaming thank you for the great content!

[@wyldeman7]

Damn straight it is. Masterpiece. Absolute Masterpiece.

[@nomercy8989]

It for sure deserved better. Marketing failed the game big time. But for me it was easily the best game of 2017 and shot up to the top spots of my favorite games of all time.

[@FranklyGaming]

I have the exact same thoughts really arkane as a studio is so underrated hopefully red fall and death loop end up being awesome too. Thanks for watching!

[@nemtudom5074]

Prey 2017 is one of those once in a decade games that comes along, shows everyone how its done, and and contently disappears into the shadows. No monetisation scheme, no forceful bs thats trying to make you keep playing it, just an honest game, that put the effort in to be the best, and it actually succeeded. Dishonored was great, *Prey was better.* Prey is Arkane's masterstroke, and seeing how they are probably going to be shut down and scattered to the wind soon, im glad they got this game out before that happened. This game makes the darkest timeline we're on more tolerable

[@savvy8464]

You hoping that there will be a prey 2 soon

[@FranklyGaming]

Would be my dream, not sure though since the first one did not too great commercially

[@CyberCongo]

No, you don't have to kill everything in your path in the last third of the game. When the massive drone attack stuff starts to happen, you can just start running to your destination. You don't have to make this a terrible slog by trying to destroy them all :) Also a little trivia: If you "recycle" the dead bodies around the station, less Typhons will appear when you re-enter the particular areas since the Weavers have nothing to reanimate.

[@rinothename5563]

Prey is really interesting. I originally didn't bought it and wasn't interested in it, because looking at walkthroughs it just doesn't look flashy and just boring. About two years ago i found dishonored and after that looking up about arkane studios and liking their games like dishonored 2 and dark messiah. So of course i bought Prey and now its one of my favourite games. I wonder if a lot of people had the same experience where they saw some random youtuber playthrough and just didn't find the game fun. Prey seems to have a problem where looking at people play it just looks boring but playing the game itself is really fun.

[@FranklyGaming]

Ya honestly it’s a problem with arkane games in general they don’t grab people’s attention as much as a lot of other stuff but if you actually play them they are phenomenal. Thanks a ton for watching and supporting!

[@Gabagandalf499]

people like you are the reason why we will never get prey 2 or antother big aaa immersiv sim

[@apgdanielricardo8196]

Watching this video after Microsoft closed Arkane down, really sucks. Dayum 18:08 😢

[@therion451]

Definitely in my top 3 of all time. I really wish more people should try this out so they could feel the freedom in gameplay that is lacking in most games nowadays.

[@FranklyGaming]

It really is such an amazing game I hope one day it gets the sequel it deserves, thanks for watching zep!

[@extremechimpout]

I bought this game today on steam for 7$ and i'm amazed at how good it is. Can't believe I almost missed out on this masterpiece. The horrible trailer almost put me off but reading reviews made me get it anyway and man im happy I did!

[@FranklyGaming]

Ya it really is so underrated when you finish it you should check out the dlc called mooncrash it’s probably the best dlc I’ve ever played too even more underrated. Thanks for watching and supporting!

[@Deadforge]

What a great video. I truly love Prey 2017 and I loved it at launch. It's such a special game and my favorite immersive sim game right in front of the dishonored games. I have a video on the game planned in the future just figuring out how I wanna do it.

[@FranklyGaming]

Thanks so much for taking the time to comment and watch man! Same for me here really awesome game that is so under appreciated. I think arkane will kill it on gamepass with future games though

[@Deadforge]

@@FranklyGaming I think Game Pass will give arkane a boost from their underapreciated game studio status and get them more out there even if they are already successful. I believe another new IP by the Austin studio or a Prey sequel who knows will be great. I'm excited to see how Deathloop does with the Lyon team who did great on Dishonored 2. I'm also looking forward to Raphael colantonios studio Wolfeye games new IP with weird west this year which is an immersive sim from a top down perspective. Keep up the good work and have a good day.

[@FranklyGaming]

Yep everything arkane is exciting haha, and thanks for the support as always’

[@Dokushin1989]

Thank you for making this video - it makes me so sad knowing how unappreciated this absolute gem is… thank you.

Thank you for watching and supporting man! Prey really is a great game I wish more people could love. Same reason I made the cyberpunk videos too.

[@woszkar]

I agree. This game needs more love.

[@johncharleswizeass]

Convincing exposition. I loved the entire Dishonored series (endings notwithstanding), so know how stunning Arcane Studios games can look and play, but was turned off by the horror elements in Prey until I began checking positive KZbin reviews of the game. Yours was the most comprehensive and convincing. It's super cheap on Steam right now. Sale. Ka-ching.

[@FranklyGaming]

Thanks so much for watching man and glad to hear it got you to check out the game, I think you will really enjoy it! I don’t like scary games either and even put prey down the first time I tried to because of that but you honestly get used to it and it makes the game even betrer

[@TheT0nedude]

It's definitely got a horror slant to it, but you can become the 'horror' too against the enemies... great game.

[@fatalmokrane]

IGN really rated this game 4 ??????

[@FranklyGaming]

Ya they did at first LOL. I basically just disregard reviews at this point unless it’s from a specific youtuber. Thanks for watching by the way!

[@fatalmokrane]

@@FranklyGaming nice review, unlike you i enjoyed the game immediately. You should try the free démo of system shock remake on Gog or Steam...you will love it and should make you excited for the full release. Stalker 2 should also be on your radar, especially if you played the first trilogy

[@FranklyGaming]

@@fatalmokrane yep looking into both thanks dude

[@skippychurch2965]

Didnt they also review alien isolation a 5?

[@mang058]

You basically explained why I LOVE this game. Everything about it. I don't know if it's just me, but I'm a sucker for games that have a shit load of areas to explore. And Prey has that. All the subtle intricacies (SPOILERS: Like the drop boxes under the fire alarms), is something I haven't seen in a game for a while, and Prey does it perfectly. Another thing - I noticed at the end of the video you got into the little room with Alex's safe in it by turning yourself into a cup. I couldn't help but think about what I did trying to get in there. I threw a recycler charge at the metal box to get it out of the way. Even then, you could always use Leverage. The amount of possible solutions to each and every encounter is so refreshing and it's why I keep coming back. I'm pretty confident that I can say Prey is my favorite game of all time and it's so criminally underrated, it's actually frustrating.

[@FranklyGaming]

Hey dude thanks for watching and commenting always love seeing responses on the videos ya prey is so damn underrated it really is an amazing game to an extent most game studios could only dream of. It’s why I am so excited for redfall it’s the same team that made prey and I hope they bring a lot of that solve every encounter in multiple ways style of immersive sim gameplay to redfall

[@goblintacos88]

So cool to see someone else loving this game! I'm still currently playing it and it is so awesome. I am going to do a playthrough on it soon, as soon as I beat it once, so I can use the New Game Plus to my advantage. Very cool video & you got a sub from me!

[@brainiac31K]

On console, I bought it thinking it was the old Prey. I ruefully replay Bioshock every other month. A few minutes into Prey and I have no life. I love this game!

[@Sky-yb4jg]

Warning: Spoilers Included I got into Prey within this last week. I took three days on it, plan on going back, and beat it. A ended my first playthrough with 25 hours put into into, some side quests left undone, and got what was what I believe to be one of the good endings. I played on normal, no survival modifiers, and my only crew kill was the chef who absolutely deserved it. I didn't bother not doing typhoon mods and quickly realized that hacking was the best thing ever and maxed it out. I think the only time I died during this was my fourth encounter with a nightmare. I was using the satellite to call them to me because I needed to scan the max amount and it was a really good way to get alien matter. I got arrogant because it was my second to last one and I was killing them fairly easily, got too close, and was one shot. Not two hours later whenever one showed up I actively hunted and killed it. I did a lot of exploration, though I won't even pretend I found it all, and had a lot of fun even though I felt like I was a deity meant to rule the station. It was to the point when I got the ultimatum I had the thought "Oh cool, I know where he is now." went down there, shocked all the robots to death, and stunned him without ever feeling tense. I even killed all the typhon that were attacking because they were vaguely in the way. I am upping the difficulty, adding survival mode options, and adding some personal restrictions. What I can't understand after all this is why people think it's hard? Maybe I will learn something after playing differently, but I will say one thing. I absolutely loved it. My only regret is that my playthrough wasn't blind. I was aware that the beginning area was a simulation and hated that I did. I rarely get a game off of recommendation alone so I watch to see what it was like and stopped right after I found that out. Yet, I still regret it so much.

[@FranklyGaming]

It really is such a great game and ya the intro is wayyy better if you don't know it is going to happen it is originally what hooked me on the game. Thanks for watching and supporting!

[@Sky-yb4jg]

@@FranklyGaming Your voice is really nice and it was a fun way to distract myself with a game I recently obsessed over! Keep it up! If you don't mind me asking, in the first area, before you ever go to the lobby, how quickly did fight the technopath? I think that was the biggest game changer for me and my run. I picked up the gloo cannon, looked at the elevator, and made my own staircase up there. The moment I had high enough hacking I explored through it early enough that I never had the issue of no more mods.

[@FranklyGaming]

@@Sky-yb4jg I had the exact same experience as you of building the bridge early. It was actually that moment exactly that made me go "oh shit this game is going to be REALLY good"

Bro I loved your video I related to everything you said specially the bit about how scary the game can be but the story was amazing. give me another game with a solid recommendation.

[@FranklyGaming]

Cyberpunk 2077 is actually amazing in my opinion even if people trash it. It Takes Two is amazing if you have a friend to play with, Humankind if you have a pc, Thronebreaker if you are into card games or RPGs, Deathloop for the next arkane game really good (but not a masterpiece like prey), mass effect legendary edition if you haven't played, inside.

[@pootispencer9765]

Learning tricks in prey is so great. First playthrough almost completely neglected the gloo gun, but gradually learned that you could use it to climb to all sorts of places, and more than just stunlocking enemies, those super powerful flying monsters? Gloo them in gravity and they'll get crushed under their own weight with fall damage. Toughest to easy in a flash. The nerf crossbow? I thought it was only good for recycling and a joke weapon. Que the realization you can access tons and tons of rooms by pressing unlock buttons or using terminals from a distance with it, without needing remote activation psionics. Stun gun? Barely used it in the beginning, now it's a mainstay to lock down tougher enemies (with way lower ammo consumption when upgraded). Typhon lures? Barely used them until I realized I could freely kill harder phantoms by baiting them into environmental hazards or recycler charges placed as mines. Doors blocked by high leverage junk? Use explosive canisters to displace them without needing upgrades. There's just so many effectiveness boosting tricks to learn!

[@pumppuhaulikkomies]

I bought Prey on discount for 5€ many years ago... I never played it. I don´t know why but I thought it would be super boring. Nobody talked about the game.... One day I forced myself to try some of my games that I never played. Turned out that Prey is one of the greatest games I´ve ever played. Simply a masterpiece. After finishing the game, it feels like I have an empty space inside me. never has this happened before.

Pro-Tip for anyone who couldn't get into Prey at first, play BioShock first. I bought Prey right when it came out and I could never get into it, I tried really hard and I kept returning every few months to see if it would change but for some reason things just never clicked, I got the furthest into it after buying it again for my PS4 bundled with Dishonored 2 but ended up putting the game down just after finding out you're on a space station. Recycle and repeat that cycle for another year or two until earlier this month when I played through the BioShock trilogy and now I love Prey. Idk why but games like BioShock and System Shock 2 are so much better games to introduce you to the systems of Prey than Dishonored is

[@mycatisromeo]

I greatly disliked this game when I first got it in the budget bin for $8.99. I played it like a fps on medium and died so much I quickly lost patience for it. I slogged through it for 20 hours to beat it and really hated it. It was a time in my life I was anxious and inpatient. I returned to it a week ago, and played it slower and with more caution, the way I played my favorite game of all time, Deus Ex (original). Now, I'm having a great time. This game is so good it's not even right. I do wish I had a high end PC to up the graphics. They really look dated on Xbox one. Otherwise, the experience is otherworldly, no pun intended. I was so paranoid the first playthrough because I felt like reality had been completely disorienting. It's truly disturbing. A thing that helped was turning the music down. I love the ambient music, but when it gets super loud during encounters, I felt really annoyed as I have a very powerful sound system.

[@kentglass3894]

agree

[@sparkywayne6766]

Yeah pretty much. It just plays with your perception to shatter it completly. Not unlike the looking glass everywhere, which I think is a perfect analogy. Also the level of detail and fun in this game is so insane. Peak, PEAK Bethesda. They shouldn`t make games alone. Arcane helped them to a master piece. Would have loved if Fallout 4 was more in the vein of Prey. Would have been in the running for best game ever. Also thanks for bringing attention to this game.

[@bilibistrox]

I tried to play this game 5 years ago, but it didn't clicked with me. I don't know why, I am a huge immersive sim fan. I installed it yesterday and I am STUNED !!!! I forced myself to play for 2-3 hours...and it hit me. I never found so many details and secrets in any game. Maybe Elden Ring, but ER for me has to many things , is feels to huge. Prey is....the best immersive sim I have ever played. In terms of everything. It doesn't do something new, but it excels in what it's predecessors have been praised for. I think is the master game of details. When the Talos station shakes and crumbles, some fans in the ceiling begin to rotate....bcs of the tremors, and then slowly stop. If you look outside the station, from a window, things happen. Everywhere you look, something happens. Is like Thief, Deus ex and Vampire Masquerade Bloodlines had a kid together. GG for vid 🥂

I remember grabbing it from Red Box with no expectations. It absolutely blew me away. Ended up keeping it for daysthen going out and buying it. The level design & level of agency are just like nothing else. Such an awesome game

Just played Prey a couple of months ago, and just discovered this channel yesterday. I really loved Prey & Mooncrash, but I still love Dishonored 2 even more. I don't see any playthroughs or commentary on the Dishonored series on this channel; have you played it? If not, I **highly** recommend Dishonored 2 to anyone who enjoys immersive sims. The level design is just absolutely mind-blowing. (Edit: If you're not aware, the Dishonored series is also by Arkane, and you don't need to play 1 in order to appreciate 2.)

@@mateusspadari5171 ya I just reviewed his new game weird west but really sad he left, hopefully they see the love and eventually do a prey 2

[@jandrex007]

this game is fucking amazing

[@FranklyGaming]

I made a recent prey video you might like too, one of my favorite gamesof all time thanks so much for watching!

[@timmyfriday2718]

Ok good little celebration of Prey but ... man at some point the fact this is a vehicle for a DLC ad makes it all feel a bit insincere.

[@silverfox1160]

Prey it so underrated it literally hurts. I wish it was more appreciated, considering its one of my favourite games ever

[@norbertpaternoster]

It's so sad to watch all those videos about how prey was underrated after Redfall's premiere

[@dyingtoplay1922]

Nice video bro keep up hard work

i feel the exact same way about this game, truly unforgettable experience

[@matttheradartechnician]

Prey and Days Gone are both crazy underrated. I loved both.

[@fillinthevideogameblanks914]

its sucks that xbox just closed the studio that made this game

[@mr.krinkle1177]

One of the best game world I have ever seen. Talos 1 is incredibly well designed.

[@FranklyGaming]

Totally agree best immersive sim ever, thanks a lot for watching!

[@mariodrv]

Game of the decade. And easily in my top 10 ever.

[@mr.forgettable407]

I GOT THE GAME FOR FREE NEVER SAW REVEIWS AND ONE OF THE BEST GAMES IVE PLAYED

[@blaynesea8816]

100 percent agree that prey is the most underrated game of the last 10 years.

[@FranklyGaming]

Such an underrated gem, luckily more people have found it after game pass and desthloop. Thanks a ton for supporting my channel!

[@Aahe42]

I was only disappointed in the ending but the whole experience plus moon crash is amazing

[@FranklyGaming]

Ya no game is perfect for sure but prey was so damn good. Super excited to see how deathloop and arkane austins next game are. Thanks for the support!

[@grady3691]

Am i the only one who thinks this game is not scary at all

[@TheSprazmi95]

Original 2006 prey is billion times better

[@AlexanderShelestov]

I love this game so bad, man. I really feel like I'm at home in Talos I. I even could adopt these mimics as my pets.

[@FranklyGaming]

One of my favorites of all time, if you haven’t played the mooncrash dlc either it is amazing, thanks for watching

[@AlexanderShelestov]

@@FranklyGaming I've just bought it, waiting for holidays to give it a try :)

[@VOID-bh2my]

I’m new to games on PC so I might play prey I’m slightly late tho lmao

[@FranklyGaming]

It is super awesome on pc (that is where I played it first). And ya I get you I have so much trouble playing older games but I highly recommend it one of the only games I have ever gone back and played again it’s amazing

[@Shyftus]

Loved it when it came out. Replayed it this week. Still amazing! i think i will try getting all achievments.

[@FranklyGaming]

It really is such a great game. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@Shyftus]

@@FranklyGaming yeah man, i hope you get more people playing it. Great Video 😉

[@MrCmon113]

How is Dishonored not mainstream?

[@MegaRohan1987]

Awesome video! I went into Prey with zero knowledge of what this game would be about, ended up falling in love with it. I played during the first global covid lockdown of 3 months. I had plenty of time during that period as i was fired from the company i was working in and had no means of finding a new job. Got to play alot of games in that time....Metro series, Ori series, Halo 3, Control, Doom, RE7 and RE2 remake, Titanfall 2, Vanquish, Evil Within 1&2, A plague tale and some more....all of these are brilliant games...but none of these games sucked me into their world like Prey did. What i would give to experience it all over again for the first time!

"Prey was just too scary" What? Sure i was scared playing silent hill 1 when i was like 12 or something (at night and alone night version of school made my asshole diamond due to pressure made by itself) but how can a adult really be scared of a videogame? Maybe in VR it could be somewhat fun to play some good horror made with VR in mind but most games are games as in fiction for me and things like constant jump scares (like in dead space) bore me more than scare me, psyhological horror maybe could have some impact but then i just remember reality and say fuck it. Also being irl scary stuff like being chased in the dark forest by unknown (probably forest ranger) evading deers and boars was more intense than any horror game for me. So yea i don't understand how people can put off a game because it was "too scary" when real life can be far more scary. Also prey (if you know what you are doing) is more a doom style game where YOU are the predator and they are the prey. (Pity game cannot spawn multiple nightmares at once that could be fun).
