"You invented it, by the way. In case you forgot. For a genius capable of inventing incredible mimic-detection equipment, you sure do need a lot of basic facts about the world and your own life history explained to you..."
poemkid1 I used to believe that, but the way their mimicry works is via Paradimensional Entanglement, as in they swap with an object in another reality that's the same as a nearby object. It's also presumably how they replicate.
poemkid1 Well, he could be special in the same manner as poltergeists are special phantoms. Also, fun fact, phantoms are what happen when human corpses are introduced to Typhon DNA, what does that make neuromod users?
You guys should do a video on the scariest moments in non-horror games. My pick would be the church in Mad Max, or the raptor cutscene from The Lost World.
Red door or green? Really, Andy? That's like...not even horror 101, that's just common sense. Remind me to bring Jane when the aliens invade. She might experiment on you, but at least her army of kill-bots would keep you safe. ...Or she'd be leading the alien army, either one.
I like how the ending is going to change and how the game plays will change the more alien powers you get. im going to get as many powers as i can tbh just to try and make it so im way more alien then human haha
Imagine you discover that the phone you have been talking to your mom on is a mimic, I mean mimics are scary but try explaining to your mom though that you hung up on her cause something was eating your face.
01:15 was one of THE biggest hints on how this adventure would turn out. The only way it could have been clearer was a rasher of bacon falling out of a frying pan and onto the hob.
Mar Hawkman There are no other kinds of mimics (other than the regenerator mimic), you get mimics and then you get different subspecies of Typhon, with mimics being just one such subspecies.
Mar Hawkman On second thought, weavers are what happens when multiple mimics attempt to mimic a mimic whilst standing next to a power source, which may or may not be a mimic.
If everything's a mimic, then there's nothing that's _not_ a mimic and the mimics aren't mimicking anything, so nothing's a mimic. Unless the mimics are mimicking each other, in which case it's mimicry of mimicry, but is that even mimicry anymore, given that every mimic would look exactly the same as they always have and always will? Am I overthinking this?
Don't leave it there! You guys playing prey will be the best thing ever! But I understand, to many games coming out the wazoo to make a full let's play of something involving and probably long like this...
Mimics not actually in this universe... So they're like..Little Elizabeths opening "tears" and hopping through and putting a cup down where they are as a placeholder?
You turned into a freaking heart and made no mention of the G.U.T.S. objective marker. I expected it at first but by the time you went all organ on me, it was basically on a plate! You guys are offal.
Street Wise Hercules I didn't say that they didn't run the exact same lol just nice to see actual xbox footage because it's always PS4 footage and most developers never release xbox footage until the game is out
If I had the power to mimic one of the OutsideXbox team members who would it be? At first I would say Jane but I do not think the world could survive having two of her.
MEDKIT MIMICS MEDKIT MIMICS AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MEDKIT MIMICS ARE OUT THERE DON'T COME NEAR ME MIMICS EVERYTHING IS A MIMIC NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO MIMICS GO AWAY
So everything is a mimic... And then imagine if mimics weren't the bad ones, they are normal, but all people and objects are high-stealth bad mimics! Plot-mimic-twist!
People keep giving this flak, (so far not here, but other places) but just look at it. You're in a Space Station overrun by aliens with powers and weapons that not only let you deal with enemies how you want, but also let you traverse how you like. Don't have a code to a locked door? No problem, turn into a coffee cup ( ... or a heart...) and smash in through a window. No stairs? How about Glue Stairs? Seriously people, you complain about how all shooters feel alike with the exception of maybe 5 or 6 games (Doom, Metro 2033, Metro Last Light, Wolfenstein TNO, Titanfall 2) that have come out in the last three years, and one comes along that is easily distinguishable from the pack... and you dump on it? Come on now.
You guys are making me paranoid about mimics before I've even played the game. Is my phone a mimic? What about my keys? Or one of my books? Hmm. I might need to take the Mike strategy and start blowing things up. Unless the explosives are also mimics. This is a very big problem.
I Haven't Seen This Much Fuss About Mimics Since D&D. The Entirety Of The Forgotten Realms Is A Mimic. Everyone In The Party Is A Mimic. Our Die Are Mimics. The DM Is A Mimic. The Manuals Are All Mimics. The Game Board And Miniatures Are Mimics. Our Character Sheets Are Mimics. Every Character, Every Item, Every Chest, Every Room, Every Dungeon, Every Monster, The Ocean, Land, And Sky - All Mimics.
For the release of CoD BO2 on Xbox One Backwards Compatibility, you guys should do Zombies on Bus Depot starting on round 20 with magic disabled and headshots only!
I've been a subscriber to this channel since the very beginning. And I knew it was a matter of time before Jane decided to become a sentient biological heart.
Alejandro B'gosh But aside from the VERY general premise, there is basically nothing in common. in the book, the things (which were nanobots, not aliens) could only possess humans, and it was set on Earth.
So, this is Prop Hunt, on a Dead Space/Bioshock map, but with a story. I believe I'm sold.
Finally a story campaign for prop hunt.
I love how they turned into a mug, and then wonder how they were spotted xD you didn't have a sticky saying you weren't a mimic, obviously! ;p
The one place that hasn't been corrupted by mimics..... SPA- oh woops nevermind
daafaev15 nice
Where did the mimics come from? SPACE!!!!!
That mimic came from the moon!
+WizardOf ayy
I think I get the reference. Nice.
Believe it or not, the not-a-mimic sticky note system actually works perfectly. If only *someone* would stop going around removing them!
I love the fact that Jane has a PhD in physics and yet her description of what is going on is "oh, just sciency stuff going on in there".
Andy's super awesome escape tactics: go down a hole.
Nice Popcorn gun Andy, wait here's my chance for a corny joke... nope nothing popped into my head yet.
Luring Jr ah damn it I was gonna make a joke.
Maybe I can tell a gay joke or something?
Nah I was gonna make one butt fuck it.
Nice Popcorn gun Andy, wait here's my chance for a corny joke... nope nothing popped into my head yet.
erick2099 did.... did you just copy the exact same comment?
daafaev15 some other guy did too but he deleted it
erick2099 ohhh gotcha
"You invented it, by the way. In case you forgot. For a genius capable of inventing incredible mimic-detection equipment, you sure do need a lot of basic facts about the world and your own life history explained to you..."
Timothy McLean thats forced memory loss for ya

poemkid1 Well, he could be special in the same manner as poltergeists are special phantoms.
Also, fun fact, phantoms are what happen when human corpses are introduced to Typhon DNA, what does that make neuromod users?
He's simply a gay mimic.
CrniWuk I think now counts as necessary, don't you think?
"What isn't a mimic?"*Stares intensely at self in mirror*
Something you didn't think of: What if your GUNS are mimics trying to overthrow the hierarchy of Mimics to rule the Mimic world? Mimic.
what if entire space station is a mimic? are you a mimic?
Mimic me daddy
mimics are mimicing mimics that are mimicing you
A distant cry approaches, and you hear them _speak_
"Yo dawg..."
SPOILER ALERT
No and Yes.
I am
Synopsis of Prey:
Morgan: "Are you a real coffee cup?"
Coffee cup: "Well, eh, technically, eh....nah."
So, you are locked in a lab until you scan a bunch of terrifying monsters that are trying to kill you? Yep, that's science!
This was a good Let's Prey
"let's go to the morgue, we all knew it was coming to this"
The last words the oxbox team will hear from Jane. . .
Table full of items labeled "Not a mimic" and an unlabeled bag of biohazard waste. Andy takes the bag.....
Everything is Mimics! Everything is Mimics when you're onboard Talos 1! Everything is Mimics, when you're on Talos 1!
Everything is Mimics! Don't forget to grab the GLOO Gun!
and talos 1 is a mimic
Ayan Haider I realized that's the everything is awesome song in the lego movie.
Do people still talk about that?
jane:what's it weave?
andy:I don't wanna know. ..blankets of horror
MsKillonight Golden webs, obviously.
MsKillonight Aaaannnd now I'm thinking about how weavers are giant magical spiders capable of necromancy.
I think we all know that the only REAL mimic is Jane. How else could -- OH, GOD, SHE'S BEHIND MEEEAAAARRGGHHH!!!
Jane. Is. Great.
So I take it that Mimics aren't the best of plumbers then?...They literally had a wrench in the works
You guys should do a video on the scariest moments in non-horror games. My pick would be the church in Mad Max, or the raptor cutscene from The Lost World.
Good one. I'd be interested to see that.
Thanks bro. 👍
im 99% sure they have a video like that already
Tommy Padfield you're thinking of Whatculture.
theres got to be an achievement for removing every single post it
something like " now i have to re label EVERYTHING..."
Red door or green? Really, Andy? That's like...not even horror 101, that's just common sense. Remind me to bring Jane when the aliens invade. She might experiment on you, but at least her army of kill-bots would keep you safe.
...Or she'd be leading the alien army, either one.
So all the socks that I keep losing are temporarily been sent to another dimension? I knew it, Damn you mimics!
I love the way Jane feels it's an inevitability that she's gonna have to bash his head in with a wrench, not a case of if nut when.
I just got called into HR and asked why I used all the post-it notes on everything in our testing lab. Thanks Psychotronics.
so are you saying that when I can't find my keys, glasses or wallets, some mimics in an alternate universe are stealing them?
That would mean that theres a high probability, that mimics dont exist in our universe most of the time... I count that as a win.
Yeah Andy, who would have thought a Phantom of all things, would think a bouncing coffee cup might be something suspicious :p
EVERYTHING IS MIMICS. TRUST NO THING OR PERSON. (especially Andy he's a mimic)
I like how the ending is going to change and how the game plays will change the more alien powers you get. im going to get as many powers as i can tbh just to try and make it so im way more alien then human haha
Imagine you discover that the phone you have been talking to your mom on is a mimic, I mean mimics are scary but try explaining to your mom though that you hung up on her cause something was eating your face.
Come on guys...why isn't this called Let's Prey?
4:37 "Do you want lunch?" pickup game level: Mimic
How are we really sure that Jane is not a Mimic making jokes about being a Mimic so we don't think she's really a Mimic?
So *that's* where the rare left-sided heart from Hitman ended up!
01:15 was one of THE biggest hints on how this adventure would turn out. The only way it could have been clearer was a rasher of bacon falling out of a frying pan and onto the hob.
What if the post-it notes are mimics 😂
THE MIMICS ARE MIMICS!!!
can the mimics mimic other kinds of mimics? What about other kinds of mimics who are mimicking mimics?
No, the T-1000's morphing ability is limited by complexity, mass and volume. Oh, that is a different story ...
Mar Hawkman There are no other kinds of mimics (other than the regenerator mimic), you get mimics and then you get different subspecies of Typhon, with mimics being just one such subspecies.
Mar Hawkman On second thought, weavers are what happens when multiple mimics attempt to mimic a mimic whilst standing next to a power source, which may or may not be a mimic.

Don't leave it there! You guys playing prey will be the best thing ever! But I understand, to many games coming out the wazoo to make a full let's play of something involving and probably long like this...
Do more gameplays of Prey. Please.
4:37 That moment when andy stealth asked out jane......
epic quote: "Thanks for nothing, corpse."
Jane do you want my calamari it's a little black but.... wait a minute
"Are you hungry? Do you want lunch?"
Of course Jane's hungry! You guys never get to eat lunch!
Please play more of this game, I loved this video
When i heard jane say "oh so it's like a visor!" I instantly go TACTICAL VISOR ACTIVATED (when you play too much overwatch)
"But what if a mimic turned into a post-it note, guys?" Then you scratch out the word "not" so it just says "a mimic"! DUH!
"Weaver, what does it weave?"...... "Blankets of horror!".... 😂
"No! You're supposed to be doing stealth, not throwing toilet rolls at them!"
Gotta be the first time that's ever been said
16:15
Who do you think you are,
Running round leaving scars,
Collecting your jar of hearts?
Well the mimic actually swaps with that object so the guy would go "what the hell where's my HWAAAAAAAAHHH"
Mimics not actually in this universe...
So they're like..Little Elizabeths opening "tears" and hopping through and putting a cup down where they are as a placeholder?
ArlanKels Pretty much.
Just forget the Elizabeth comparison and you're golden!
The sound Jane makes at 17:20 is so cute it rivals Ellen's giggle :D
You turned into a freaking heart and made no mention of the G.U.T.S. objective marker. I expected it at first but by the time you went all organ on me, it was basically on a plate! You guys are offal.
Canister of hearts, Andy? I think you mean Jar of Hearts!
Prey 2 is just a massive game of horrifying alien Prop Hunt
It's a "Let' s Prey"!
I think that scanner is closer to the video camera in Bioshock 2 than the one in the original game. Either way I am totally getting this game!
glad to see this is xbox one footage which looks great and seems to be running amazingly
dpro888 Most games run the exact same on PS4 and Xbox1
Street Wise Hercules I didn't say that they didn't run the exact same lol just nice to see actual xbox footage because it's always PS4 footage and most developers never release xbox footage until the game is out
I loved this game so much.
If I had the power to mimic one of the OutsideXbox team members who would it be? At first I would say Jane but I do not think the world could survive having two of her.
Turns out you end up destroying all of earths forests to make your "not a mimic" postit notes so they win anyway
MEDKIT MIMICS
MEDKIT MIMICS
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
MEDKIT MIMICS ARE OUT THERE DON'T COME NEAR ME MIMICS
EVERYTHING IS A MIMIC
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO MIMICS GO AWAY
So everything is a mimic... And then imagine if mimics weren't the bad ones, they are normal, but all people and objects are high-stealth bad mimics!
Plot-mimic-twist!
the shoes are mimics, the coffee cups are mimics, the base is mimics, the universe is mimics...
People keep giving this flak, (so far not here, but other places) but just look at it. You're in a Space Station overrun by aliens with powers and weapons that not only let you deal with enemies how you want, but also let you traverse how you like. Don't have a code to a locked door?

Come on now.
Who said Jane doesn't have a heart? Proof is right there!
MIMICS.
Mimics mimic.
Includes mimicking mimics.
Mimics mimic.
Includes mimicking corpses.
Can mimic everything.
16:40 who do you think you are, mimicking your jar of hearts...
Next-Gen, Space Horror Prop Hunt. I feel like a worthy multiplayer opportunity was missed here.
Imagine of your bullets were mimics and as soon as you shot them out of the barrel it just made more enemies
I get to review this game for my mates at Laggin out soon I can't wait to play this
EVERYONE, THIS VIDEO IS A MIMIC!!!!!
You guys are making me paranoid about mimics before I've even played the game. Is my phone a mimic? What about my keys? Or one of my books? Hmm. I might need to take the Mike strategy and start blowing things up. Unless the explosives are also mimics.
This is a very big problem.
No no, everything is fine. There is no problem here...
....
For the problem is *also* a mimic!
Everything is Mimics? WAIT! THAT MEANS THIS VIDEO IS A MIMIC! ITS SPREADING OUTSIDE THE GAME! RUN FOR IT!
Dammit OXBox, I was going to skip this game but y'all are making it look fun.
Jane: "I know how to use a Shotgun.. Video game"
If they only knew...
I Haven't Seen This Much Fuss About Mimics Since D&D. The Entirety Of The Forgotten Realms Is A Mimic. Everyone In The Party Is A Mimic. Our Die Are Mimics. The DM Is A Mimic.

Every Character, Every Item, Every Chest, Every Room, Every Dungeon, Every Monster, The Ocean, Land, And Sky - All Mimics.
Dude, that sounds interesting. Who the fuck your DM?
A Mimic Disguised As God.
Thats like. The reverse fourth wall.
Yeah. Daryll Doesn't Roll Well Either So His Die Are Loaded. "Lucky" My Ass.
you do realize that you don't have to capitalize the first letter of every word, right?
lets Prey this is a good game
For the release of CoD BO2 on Xbox One Backwards Compatibility, you guys should do Zombies on Bus Depot starting on round 20 with magic disabled and headshots only!
Blankets of Horror - good band name.
everything is Mimic! everything is actually another being in disguise!
Whenever I see prey now I will forever think of how Ellen dropped her control in fear.
definitely more guys!
Eyy yo Andy makin moves 4:39 "Do you want lunch"?
Have you guys ever made a video after lunch?
Crispin Boyer reference...Haven't heard that name in a while!
Let's play Prey, but every time an item appears on screen, it is a Mimic.
You guys missed a brilliant opportunity to say: Let's Prey of Prey.
So mimics swap with objects from parallel reality do they, finally an answer to where all missing socks have gone to!
TheRunningPigeon And keys, don't forget keys.
My comment is a mimic.
my reply is a mimic
My comment is a mimic.
I've been a subscriber to this channel since the very beginning. And I knew it was a matter of time before Jane decided to become a sentient biological heart.
I was hoping this would be on the channel
Can you become one of the post it notes?
What a delightful lets prey
Can we get them to 2 million?
wait, you can become a coffee cup in this game?
Shut up and take my money!
This is actually based on the book Prey by Michael Crichton
Alejandro B'gosh I read that a while go, and it really doesn't seem very similar. there are a couple similar themes, but that's really all
The Dubious Salmon key word based
Alejandro B'gosh But aside from the VERY general premise, there is basically nothing in common. in the book, the things (which were nanobots, not aliens) could only possess humans, and it was set on Earth.
The Dubious Salmon true that, but I think this game is still a decent attempt to mimic the book
This is literally bioshock 2 in space, kinda cool
