I don't really like alternate reality shit. It always feels fanfiction-y to me. I'd much rather it just never be brought up, so I'm hoping that while you've got 60s/70s looking shit and some other Russian shit they don't ever have an audiolog that has shit like "thank God Kennedy survived that assassination" or anything.

It's different when it's alternate history because you can relate to it based on actual history. Yes, some liberties they take might seem implausible and outlandish, but I honestly think its fun. I loved Wolf TNO for this. Matter recycling seemed interesting, I suppose that means there are finite resources on the station then which you expend in bullets and medkits and other consumables. I don't think finite resources are explored enough in games, I think in provokes though knowing there's only so much stuff.
despite my disappointment that this isn't really a prey game, i think this looks like it is going to be pretty good. i like alt history stuff
JFK survived the attempt though so this isn't alternate reality?
An alternate reality I'd like is what if some of these fantasy worlds were attacked by aliens?

If Arkane has proven something it's that they know how to do world building correctly.

That's the whole point of the game's story. I also don't recall them ever specifically saying "at this specific battle [x] happened and that's where real history stops" just don't shove "jfk didn't die" or anything similar in my face and we're good.
God... we know about that game now, can we stop talking about this game now ? (I mean until 2017 at least, there is 10 news this week now) I don't know why there is alot of news about this we got it now !! these bots are paid for this or what ??

After what bethesda did to Human Head, They can go fuck themselves on this one.
[QUOTE=MetalGear;50854737]After what bethesda did to Human Head, They can go fuck themselves on this one.[/QUOTE] It's been however many years, it's time to let it go. For fuck's sake just pretend it's not called Prey if it will make you get over it already.
[QUOTE=Saxon;50853195]Did I jump universes again god dammit? Or do you mean that he died in surgery?[/QUOTE] No, he lived and got turned black.

Is there an alternative reality where preys backstory isn't stupid?
