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
