Prey 2017 Nightmare No Damage

[@Zinaida7224]

Absolutely amazing how you pulled off something extremely hard: highest difficulty with NO DAMAGE taken, congrats man

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thanks! A fully upgraded stun gun really helps a lot. You could also take a look at my wrench/grenades run. It features a few new tricks I've learned since this video. It's a no damage playthrough too, but only on hard difficulty (didn't want to hit these typhons for an eternity).

[@Zinaida7224]

@@Jay_Alfred Nice! That's the best "Mission Impossible" strat I've ever seen!

[@FatherDinny]

Aw man this game is among the best i’ve played … i love how much you can switch up the way you play. Makes the game so replay-able

[@falkster4045]

Im feeling really proud that i only got surprised half the time you showed of some cool hidden stuff. Looks like i did a good job searching the ship on my 2 runs :p

[@Jay_Alfred]

This is actually more of a speedrun. I forgot and left out a lot of side missions, neuromods, upgrade kits...For advanced strategys you can take a look at my other (and upcoming) videos ;) Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed your Prey experience!

[@eriknoorbergen2569]

Amazing run. Obviously a lot of hours went into it. Well done. One thing i noticed that you .. just like me ... tend to forget the Weaapon Upgrade Kit in Cage 1 (Cargo Bay) on top of the big Cargo (on your left). Also i learned something new .. never knew about the secret briefcase under the floor beneath the couch. Again, amazing run. Was a pleasure to watch !!

[@Jay_Alfred]

I forgot a lot of things in this run. The neuromods in Talos 1's security office, the weapon kit in life support, the neuromod(s) in shuttle bay...But all that doesn't really matter for a run ;) And thanks for your kind words!

[@Slythe01]

Not sure if you'll see this reply but, where exactly is this briefcase underneath a couch ? It sounds like one of the few secrets in the game I missed and I'm dying to know where it is.

[@Jay_Alfred]

@@Slythe01 You can find this briefcase in crew quaters (when you need to find Danielle's voice samples). You need the keycard from your office, then activate the lift in crew quaters. Your suite is the first room you'll find upstairs.

[@transcriber6201]

So smooth. And you saved Mikhaila :)

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thanks, but you probably won't like my next playthrough then ;)

[@miroslavzima8856]

Well, at least I mastered slowplay with full time damage. You are insane and I love it!

[@Sasysa1012]

this is exactly what I wanted to watch! thanks for taking the time to play and record all this :D

[@n0rth1north]

See, all video game playthroughs should be like this one. It's so much better when it's done by someone who knows what they're doing lol I also never considered leverage to be a worthwhile NM upgrade until I watched this. That damage you get throwing lev III objects at stunned typhon is insane! Prey really is an awesome game.

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thanks! I'll have a new version with all survival mods enabled, more upgrades, more story, better dancing and many small improvements online soon! Leverage III is indeed useful, but as you mentioned: a stunned enemy is weak to all kind of attacks. So my first advice would always be to upgrade the stun gun and use it.

[@uchenna127]

Where's the enjoyment in seeing someone rush through a game? I think it's fine in places where it makes sense, i.e. speedruns, specific level types, etc, but otherwise...no.

[@Jay_Alfred]

@@uchenna127 that's a rather philosophical question of how you approach games: I love fast and efficient gameplay that is perfectly executed. In that sense this playthrough is maybe more educational than entertaining (I still find it entertaining). That means you could learn some strategies on how to get through Prey 2017 easily (where to use stealth or grenades, how to avoid nightmare encounters or which neuromods are most useful). If you want, you can come back to this channel in about a month. My new playthrough should be finished by then. It will contain the full narrative and (almost) all side missions/audio logs. And thanks for sharing your view!

[@n0rth1north]

@JayAlred Oh I know lol Fully upgraded DSG is the most versatile and most useful weapon in the game, change my mind. I hesitate to use the word "best", because this game did a decent job giving all weapons their own unique "niches" where they excelled better than any of the others. And even though the DSG's use is in all but a couple of scenarios complimentary in nature, it still has a larger "niche" than any other weapon. Looking forward to your future videos bro, keep 'em coming 👍

[@n0rth1north]

@Uchenna Nothing more frustrating or boring than watching someone take hours upon hours trying to figure out how to "win" at a video game. I had already played this game a few times prior to watching this video, so I went into watching it moreso with the desire to see things that another player had learned that I may have missed or failed to realize. So the way I see it, this playthrough isn't rushed at all. Its done accurately and precisely, just the way it needs to be, and exactly the way it should be 🤷‍♂️

[@95PTorres]

Late to the game, but just finished my first Prey through on hard. Took about 14 hours. Really enjoying this video.

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thank you! I hope you enjoyed your Prey experience!

[@romanw6636]

I had assumed that "no damage" means inflicting no damage but taking no damage ever seems, with respect, crazy

[@Jay_Alfred]

Wait for my wrench only no damage run ;) No damage isn't that difficult as soon as you upgrade your stun gun and know how to skip the nightmare encounters. And you need some luck with Kaspar's location.

[@Dean444ful]

10:30 hold the fuck up. How did I not know that was a thing. Here I thought I’d discovered all secret passages and I miss a pretty obvious one lol. Gonna have to do another playthrough and see what else I missed

[@Jay_Alfred]

For a long time I have missed a secret passage in Hardware Labs. Jump on the grav shafts, turn left and you'll see a maintenance access panel that will lead to a suit chipset.

[@bethysmollet272]

Late-late to the Prey game. Stunning run. Loved watching for the hidden gems you found. I hope everyone is mostly talking about your dance moves during Danielle’s song!

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thank you! Yes, the comments are either about the dancing or how the fast hacking works ;)

[@huzaifaqaisar2002]

Mad respect for you man. You nailed it. Must have took a lot of hard work to get this result.

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thank you! It's wasn't too hard, the game is pretty consistent. Once you know the tricks (STUN GUN and NULLWAVE) you pretty much dominate everything ;)

[@huzaifaqaisar2002]

@@Jay_Alfred Oh I see. Thanks.

[@Toxicdeath1904]

Dude you have officially become a legend in my book you were so accurate it's just wow btw in the crew quarters Danielle's song was perfect with the planned attack and gotta love the happy dance

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thank you! Comments like yours really keep me engaged with this game! Feel free to take a look at my other Prey content too ;)

[@tyleus2510]

This is so cool to see. Beating this game was a struggle. Awesome to see the mastery knowing how hard this is!

[@hackbelly2120]

Fast and efficient indeed! Never miss a single shot! And that dance just killed me😂😂😂

[@Jay_Alfred]

I missed a shot at 27:05 but the reaction was quite ok ;)

[@hackbelly2120]

@@Jay_Alfred Oh I would never noticed if you did't point that out! Your style is just so cool. I like that you wait calmly when npc speak instead randomly turn around the camera like so many others, move fast when you have to, and those accurate ambushes! can't wait for the wrench only video!

u are insane really

[@Dwayne_19K]

So I’m guessing the only way to do this is to have the areas memorized including enemy usual spawn locations which gives a edge

[@JCMiniPainting]

Great run! What's with you being able to open some of the fire alarm things on the walls? I never knew that was a thing.

[@Jay_Alfred]

That's a side mission (Talos Smuggling Ring). It starts at the Arboretum when you collect the transcribe from Lily Morris.

[@StrikeTheShroom]

When you started two stepping 😆 awesome run!

[@SaturninePlaces]

I am just now learning you can place the grenades as mines... wow.

[@Jay_Alfred]

You can even place them on typhons!

[@Waxy88]

Never knew about the hidey hole under Morgans Couch XD, This is an amazing preythough champ you seem to know where all the phantom are at all times, do they always spawn in the same location? or just reflexes and environmental clues?

[@Jay_Alfred]

The phantoms and especially mimics are not always at the same location. But after enough playthroughs, you know what to look for. So yes, enviromental clues, sounds and some luck with rng.

[@nadirbn5199]

that was so good underrated video

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thanks! Feel free to take a look at the wrench/grenades playthrough too :)

[@oguretsagressive]

"Placeholder run"?! It's perfect! O_O

[@Jay_Alfred]

More objectives, more action, all survival options enabled, hardcore mod, better dancing. There's still a lot of room for improvement.

[@hackbelly2120]

For some reason I began to watch this for the 10th time while finally started my second run. I found myself often too scared to make progress, so I’m just staying at the bright and warm lobby now. But you played it like you were playing a complete different game, I would really like to know how can you stay so fearless (and even keep coming back for fun)surrounding by terrifying cold blood space creatures on a slowly corrupting space ship all by yourself😢and did you feel scared when first played it?

[@alexsalvi1824]

knowledge defeats fear

[@Restiur123]

[@Ping12358]

That dance at 45:20 was...beautiful

Crazy how you play where you know everything is…I barely rember what I got for my birthday which was 2 days ago

[@Jay_Alfred]

I've been playing this game since 2017. I should know where everything is by now ;)

[@andyplum1854]

Well my son and I have just completed our first games each; thanks so much for this video. Some amazing tips; my son is like," what does Jay do here ?" etc.

[@Jay_Alfred]

Jay would always recommend to use the stun gun ;) And thank you, I'm very glad to hear that! Still, the game has so much more to offer than I showed in this video. I hope you both also took some time to explore Talos I.

[@Andynox]

Well played! Next time you can try Wrench Only No Damage Run. ;)

[@Jay_Alfred]

Thanks :) I still have another nightmare no damage run with all survival options enabled to record. Afterwards I'll take a look at it, but I think I'll need at least a few grenades and the gloo gun to make that work. I was also thinking about a badass New Game+ or no needles/ no damage/ nightmare/survival run. Especially the latter is a lot of fun!

[@flipsolo]

Wow! It took me 45 hours to beat it! Impressive!

[@net343]

Imagine doing this without a single neuromod and wrench only

[@Jay_Alfred]

Wrench only - next project!

[@w0mblemania]

Outstanding run. Very skillsy! A few questions: - when you got to the shuttle bay, the ramp to the shuttle door had already been extended. How did you make this happen? - how did you know where the Tech Officer would be? Or is it RNG? - when you entered the Arboretum from outside, the Stop Dahl counter suddenly appeared, showing only 1m 58secs. Does this always happen, or did you cut the sequence short? Cheers.

[@Jay_Alfred]

Great questions! Here are the answers: -As you can imagine, I didn't play the game blind or first time, so I knew that the ramp had to be extended later. I went to the shuttle bay after leaving life support (1:15:25 to 1:17:20). Dahl's bots haven't spawned at this point. Saves time and makes the no damage objective way easier. -If you look closely at 1:29:48, you can see the objective marker on the left. That's how you know where the Tech Officer is (Hardware Labs). And yes, it is RNG (the location will be determined after leaving the Arboretum). -If you go after the Tech Officer first, you'll have 2 Minutes to save Alex after entering the Arboretum. The counter starts with two minutes at 1:32:23.

[@w0mblemania]

@@Jay_Alfred Thank you! That's very good of you to explain this. Cheers.

Wow amazing dude, you memorize every thing there. Btw how you can hack so fast ? are you cut your vidio for that moment ?

After a few playthroughs it all comes naturally. And yes, I cut the hacking mini game. It's quite annoying to watch imho.

So that I don't have to deal with ranged attacks from voltaic/thermal phantoms and techno/telepaths. It basically disables all their attacking abilities for quite a long time.

@@Jay_Alfred but isn't pyschoshock better for that?
