Subsequently, one may also ask, is prey a fun game?
You might find it more fun as you get some cool abilities in the future. Give it a few more hours, it could be a game you'll come to love! Op, games like Prey are best with a lot of patience. If you just rush to the objective you are not going to realize how well crafted the world is.
Similarly, did prey sell well? Prey (2017), developed by Arkane Studios Austin, published by Bethesda Softworks. Prey did not sell very well at all, despite decent ratings from critics (81 on Opencritic, which is actually lower than I thought).
Similarly one may ask, is prey worth buying?
Prey is, so far at least, a phenomenal game. And if you've got a stack of other games waiting to be played, you'll probably get into them. So, if you're still staring at an unplayed copy of Persona 5 or Dishonored 2 then Prey isn't worth getting just yet.
Is prey a scary game?
Prey does not feel like a stealth-based survival horror game because frankly, it isn't the least bit scary. The environments are bright and open, there's almost zero gore in the entire game so far, only “drained corpses” that are meant to be spooky.
