Its gameplay is fun, especially if you enjoy games like System Shock 2.
But the writing... It's very modern-day cringey Arkane Studios writing (mostly the sidequests, but it leaks into the main campaign as well). It brings the game down so much for me that I almost wish the game had no story whatsoever.

Bezmenov speech is fully intact, references to Codename Perseus are removed entirely. (gave away too much plot?)
I might have to get this Call of Duty. It's been so long since I've played one.
Don't jump the gun. I probably will, because I'm desperate for a new game, but I have a feeling we'll get burned.
Remember, no preorders.
Since you're going to be pointman on this don't forget to post the results.

Prey is fucking amazing and one of the best games I've ever played.
