Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

2017's Prey
Even worse is that it is a trademark. There was a kickstarter for a game "prey for the gods" which could have gotten a trademark dispute over the usage of the name "prey" from bethesda.
So they changed the name to "praey for the gods" to not have to deal with yearlong legal battle and burn the Kickstarter funds.
And even worse, prey 2017 is actually a good game that should have totally been named Neuroshock or something
