Chad Habel from Player Attack writes: This is the most exciting game of E3 for me (big call I know). Dishonored came out of the blue somewhat; with all of the Elder Scrolls activity going on we might have guessed that Bethesda had enough to do, but apparently not. It combines a series of elements such as a deep and vibrant milieu with flexible gameplay and an engaging narrative such that it seems to both bring something new as well as draw on the best of gaming at the moment. In their closed-door demo, Harvey Smith and Raf Colantonio called this their “dream project”, and I think it’s mine too.
It’s a shame, really, that so few games have “borrowed” Dishonored’s Blink – in the right hands, such a power could be game-changing.
There was a small game called Aragami that “borrowed” the blink, that was a good game.
Unfortunately I heard the sequel wasn’t good so I stayed away from trying it out.
The sequel changed some of the mechanics from the first game but it was still a very polished and enjoyable experience. You should definitely give it a shot sometime. The game's currently on sale on Steam
Okay thanks for the heads up, will look out for it being on sale one day.
I really did like the first and played it back to back as soon as I finished the first play through.
Dishonored's engaging lore, creative levels, and timeless gameplay are well worth revisiting for fans of the immersive sim and stealth genre.
