Dishonored Has Gone "Gold," Bethesda Doing a Giveaway to Commemorate It

Arkane Studios' Dishonored is finally ready to be manufactured! To commemorate the occasion, Bethesda will be giving away a mask and a copy of the game to one lucky fan.

Game of the Year is coming !

[JANF]

I dont know about game of the year but it could be a heavy contender.

[Chuk5]

So much potential.

Could also go totally wrong.

Time will tell.

[Jason_Tanner]

I completely agree, don't ever believe the hype, especially these days in gaming. Anyway, I've had this reserved for almost a year now and will just be waiting to see the reviews before I decide to pick it up or not.

[Laxman]

If you dont like to believe the hype "these days", you most certainly shouldnt base your decision to buy a game or not based on what other people think.

[Jason_Tanner]

@ Laxman

Point taken and you're right about that, especially considering how many reviews are bought and paid for the publishers of the games. However I do like user reviews for that reason. Although a rental will completely remove all doubt.

[nihonlight]

Just like skyrim was GOTY......
Bethesda loves to Inflate their own egos.
Time will tell.

[Chuk5]

Well.

How do you define that? I mean critically, it was.
Personally, it was to me.

but I digress. what does skyrim even have to do with it? It's PUBLISHED by Beth, not developed.

[nihonlight]

Guilty by association.
Still if it's good I'll buy it USED.
Beth gets no money from me. (Yes publishers get money)

[Dovahkiin]

@nihonlight

Not a good way to think, IMO.

[zgoldenlionz]

Well all the problems with the ps3 version were critically absent from most reviews.

But I do agree skyrim has no reason to be brought up when talking about dishonored.

[wallis]

You're kidding me right? Yeah let's punish the developers because of who bought them.

"Hey honey, you know how I went out a ten years ago and made a games company? And its last game shipped only 10,000 units and since then we've only eaten cereal boxes from the neighbour's garbage? Well earlier I was offered a deal by bethesda, or ZeniMax, an astoundingly well established and financially lucrative company. But I turned it down because they release games filled with bugs. Not steaming piles of shit or anything... just a really good massive open world game with AI paths and life cycles that often break. Rather than an emphasis on polish there's more of an emphasis on content but I told them to go shove it anyway. So when are you divorcing me?"

I mean out of all the publishers to screw I just don't get what the hell would stand out to you about bethesda. Some of my favourite all time games have been buggy. Seriously I freakin' LOVE bugs compared to the shit activision and EA try to get away with. From shutting down servers on two year old games to telling us we can't sue them ever at all and if we so much as look at a trailer of the game we can't sue but it's okay.... they've got our best interests at heart. There are so many dickish things being done today but everyone just wants to stamp on bethesda for not doing a perfect job. A pretty good job just not perfect. It's like walking past a paedophile pissing on the mona lisa so you can slap the woman who burnt the toast on your breakfast in bed.

Edit: actually it's like slapping that woman's daughter. Seriously dark messiah shipped 10,000 units. That's about $40,000 or half the average wage of one games programmer. I'm buying this damn game.

[nihonlight]

You love bugs? Sad when doing a halfassed job is accepable.
I bet you like buying cars that breakdown in a few weeks too.
Or half cooked food because the chef got a michillan star once.

[Ron_Danger]

Troll time!!

By gold they really mean "we've sorted out 75% of bugs and glitches and intend to patch them based on sales"

But seriously, this game looks awesome! I'll probably be picking it up once I'm done beating borderlands 2 with each character

[JANF]

lol :D

[-DanielBryan-]

Yeah,sure it is...

[Locksus]

Excitmeent!

[xGAM3Rxx]

Looks promising, Just hope it doesn't turn out like brink...

[Mariusmssj]

I mean nothing bad but knowing Bethesda it will be filled with bugs xD

[Locksus]

They are not the developers. Bethesda developed Skyrim but this is developed by Arkane Studios.

[Mariusmssj]

I do apologise yep Bathesda is only the publisher

[brettyd]

I'll buy it when its actually finished, 2-3 months from now. Sorry Bethesda, i have zero faith in you putting out a complete product.

[JANF]

Please read "Locksus " comment above, thank you.

[Locksus]

Seriously, don't you guys know the difference between a developer and a publisher?

[Rivitur]

Ignorance is bliss for many.

[rCrysis]

I'm actually excited that Arkane Studios developed this. I for one loved Bioshock 2. I can't wait to see how Dishonored turns out.

[brettyd]

Brink

[supersonicjerry]

I'm getting this game no doubt and I know i'm going to love it but GOTY nah I already know. Borderlands 2 will be GOTY I don't want it to be but its reality.

[mikemadden]

How many bugs will be in this game?

[Laxman]

7

[Oldman100]

I'm guessing there will be a dishonorable amount.

[Coach_McGuirk]

bring it on

[taquito]

lol....goty.....no.....but a good games yes

game of the year is between diablo 3, guild wars 2 and mists of panderia

ruuners up;

borderlands 2 (pc version)
max payne 3 (pc version)

[Raider69]

Im pretty sure that it went gold a while back!This game is releasing in 12 of october,replication and WW distribution takes longer than 2 weeks.This is one of does games that are full of hype and will fail expectactions.After 2 to 4 weeks will be half of the price in stores.

[MasterD919]

It looks interesting but there are just too many other games coming out that already have my interest...If this game had hit early enough (like now) I would be all over it.

I'll definitely try it out sometime though and most likely get it on sale down the road.

[mananimal]

Im looking forward to the reactions to this game from the gamers once it comes out. lol
