Popular Post NMErickson Posted December 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2021 Been waiting literally 5 years for this. Played a PC version of it with about half the bosses and it was a good Shadow of the Colossus type game with an aspect of needing to survive in between the big boss battles. It’s very fun and the winter storm landscape is beautiful and intense scenery. Hope the PS versions are well made. Still waiting on my key to be delivered so would love to hear feedback if anyone plays it. The Trophies look challenging but fun. This used to be called Prey for the Gods but had to be changed, thus the weird looking title. 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post DrBloodmoney Posted December 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) That. Looks. Fucking. Rad! Seems like Shadow of the Colossus, set in Rise of the Tomb Raider, with Aloy as the protagonist!

Jigsy1 Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) I'm still annoyed this is called Praey For the Gods and not Prey/Pray for the Gods because Bethesda are morons. Been looking forward to the PS4 version, but I'm literally flat broke right now. ;_; Edited December 14, 2021 by Jigsy1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sailboat7 Posted December 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 14, 2021 (edited) I backed this game on Kickstarter when it was first put up. Unfortunately haven't played past a couple of the first few builds, after it got better and better my pathetic PC couldn't handle it... barely could do slideshow performance. Was extremely surprised to see it released on PS5/PS4 out of nowhere today, and had been waiting on a console release for years. I do wanna drop the $30 USD on the console release, but personally am rather shite at survival games. Anyone know how deep the survival mechanics are? I seem to remember reading they put an option to make the survival aspects minimal, lime a difficulty slider-type; but I can't say for sure. Just reinstalled SotC remake the other day, but Praey's "trash mobs" and other elements other than just the "colossi" is really intriguing. I should probably re-read some Steam reviews, as Playstation reviews will probably be a little while. Would love to hear anyone's opinion on the console version who have played it! *edit* I think I'm just going to bite the bullet and drop $30 USD to support the developers; a 3 person team that created not just a passion project, but a game they and many others enjoy playing. Love how they really take player feedback into concern, and implement what will really help the game. Will post some impressions later, perhaps tomorrow, if anyone is interested.

danceswithsloths Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Oh hell yeah, I've also been watching this one for a long time. Shadow of the Colossus is my favorite game of all time, hoping this scratches a similar itch. Downloading now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMErickson Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 Not far in and only defeated the first God but it runs silky smooth on a PS5. There’s not a graphics or performance option to choose from but I did turn off motion blur and chromatic aberration for a more clear picture. Those are on default. This is intense, polished, fun, and will definitely scratch that Shadow of the Colossus itch. I even got that bad feeling when killing a God like I did while killing a colossus. Theres four difficulty levels and can start with any one. Uniquely, there’s also three survival mode settings that determines how challenging you want the survival aspect to be: 1.) ‘Story’ for hunger & exhaustion regen, no cold damage, better stamina regen, etc. 2.) ‘Boost’ for a balanced setting, and 3.) ‘Survival’ that sounds miserable. Cold resistance/regen and stamina regen are limited. It sounds pretty hardcore. Pair that with Legendary difficulty and you’ll have your work cut out for you. Conversely, you should be able to set it on Story while going for the Hard and Legendary trophies for an easier time. Hopefully. I went medium setting on both but might try other combinations. Either way, I don’t see this being an easy nor a short Plat. It is great though. SotC fans will feel at home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLord_HUMUNGUS Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Finally! Waiting on my backer code for this but I might bite the bullet and buy it to support the devs and give away my code when it comes... looks so good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before you do, check your Humble Bundle account and it might be there! Mine was.

GizMo_The_Great Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 (edited) I saw the trophy list for this pop up on Exophase a few days ago and went looking for a release date. All I found was a tweet from Sony saying early 2022. Glad it was wrong though. I had a wishlist notification pop up on my phone last night saying it was available. So I just purchased it straight away, and very glad I did. So far it’s a blast to play, really enjoying it. It wears its inspiration on it’s sleeve, and as such, it feels very familiar to play. There’s been the odd time where it’s felt a little clunky, but nothing so bad that I can complain. Overall I’m loving it.

Dayngls Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 (edited) So, it looks like the tracking for the "Cleanse the Land" Trophy is glitched. I've been stuck at 44/50 for a while now. Even starting a new game hasn't seemed to work. I've DM'd the devs about the issue. Hopefully we'll hear something from them soon. EDIT - They answered my DM and a patch is currently in the works and will be live soon. Likely tomorrow ?

Alayaes Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 So far it's at 39/100 on Metacritic. Oof. I'll wait on a good sale to maybe check this out, but as a neutral party without pre-conceived biases, this seems like something of a mess in its current form.

It's incredibly tedious, and it tries way too hard to be complicated, it's just confusing. I don't have endless hours to try and figure out what the hell is going on here. Sometimes I guess small teams can pull it off, but I would rather pay more for a triple A release than crappy games just because they are cheaper. I really wanted to like this, but I can't recommend it at all. SotC was a unicorn, we won't ever get an experience like that again. edit: I gave it a few more hours - it just gets worse. What a major disappointment. Edited March 26, 2022 by Cthulu-72 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
