Today's game is Prey. It's not my first go with this game, but last time i played i got right to the end and stopped. That was on Xbox Gamepass. I saw it was on sale on PC and decided to scoop it up and finally finish it. We'll see if i end up sticking through this, but i'd like too.

The game has a fun Physics engine where you can pick things up and just chuck them, which is the part i'm sure both myself and many others probably remember this game for. I spent the first 10 minutes ish of the games just chucking things at a NPC in the opening and at random stuff around the room.

Then there's also the hints the game provides towards the story at the very beginning. Now that i now the story it's a lot easier to pick up on these at the beginning, and it's cool seeing it hinted at. Though, if memory serves the game doesn't hold these secrets for very long. Nonetheless i think it's cool the game does this.

The game also has a little "alternate history" spin too it that i think is cool. I must have not picked up on this the first time, despite the huge ass painting in the museum of JFK in 2035. Speaking of the Museum, the game gives you a little one to explore that explains the alternate history which i think is cool.

Enough about the cool things this game does, there's also the combat. The game gives you a bunch of cool combat abilities. But the two core ones i enjoy is the Physics and Way the enemies interact with weapons.

Firstly, physics is awesome because in a pinch you can chuck things at enemies, and secondly, and this is the cheap ass strategy i use a lot, you can pick up Turrets and reposition them. I always keep a mental note of where all the turrets are so if i encounter an enemy i can grab the turret and basically mow it down.

Then the way the enemies interact with weapons, namely the main one which is the mimics, is really cool. The game gives you this cool Gloo gun which you can use to freeze the mimics for a bit and let you do extra damage. On top of that the Gloo Gun let's you use it for parkour, so i used it to skip a few sections.

One thing i will say is this game can be harsh at times, at least for me. Maybe i'm not playing right but i feel like i'm in a constant struggle for health. I ended up getting soft locked so i stepped back for a bit and stopped after getting into Morgan's office. I really want to finally finish this game though so i'm hoping i don't get bored and hop to something else like i usually do.
