I did not understand if there's anything else you can do with objects you possess, aside from making them roll around.
Could be much more interesting if there are some kind of puzzles involving possessing and actually using these objects.

Looks rather boring to be honest.

It would be a waste of a nice idea if I can possess an object, let's say a fire extinguisher, or a pair of glassess, and I cannot operate them or use them in some clever way to solve a problem.
Maybe you could, I don't know, possess a sheet of paper, tear it with a paper shredder, then possess a tiny shred and make it fit in a tiny hole between walls, for example.
That would be more like a point-and-click adventure than an FPS maybe, but would also be much more satisfying to play.

You may be able to do some of that but probably not to that extend. I think if you become a turret you can shoot, so maybe. But this system is already so insanely complicated that im okay if its a little limited

I wish people would just move on from Prey 2 already. Its hard to have a good discussion about Arkane's Prey without bringing up Prey 2 every bloody time.
