It really did fuck things up which is depressing. The game was a masterpiece of an immersive sim and the atmosphere of the whole game is like no other. With a different name, I think it could’ve sold better. Even I avoided it because I was mad about Prey 2 being canned and the reused name, until I saw Markiplier play it and fell in love almost immediately. Such a beautiful game that deserved better.
The stupid decision to reuse the name confused the fuck out of people. I being one of them.
Prey was a spiritual successor to System Shock 2. And it was so stupidly good and upset at myself for not playing it until years later.
