Technically you can just straight up murder your way through the game. It makes things a bit more hectic but they do provide the tools to make it really interesting to do so.

 

Cool relevant poster that Pete Hines just tweeted.

 

Whoa.

Holy. Fucking. Shit.

It's definitely the best trailer I've seen in the last year. If they deliver even half of that feel in the actual game... well, count me in.

 

I saw an interview with the guys in Arkane and it looks fantastic.

The branching skills are pretty interesting, with time slows, blinks possessions and weapon skills all having unique upgrades. I think it'll open up multiple playthroughs Deus Ex style.

Pretty excited.

 

Any clips of actual game play out yet?

 

So far only pre-rendered stuff as far as I know, but there was a demo at PAX.

 

This game is releasing tomorrow and I can't fucking wait for it. Though with my fucking net, I don't know when I'll be able to play.

 

I won't have access to my pc for at least a week from now D:

 

Doesn't come out till friday in the UK, which I suppose is a good thing as the Forza Horizon demo and new ME3 Multiplayer DLC Come out tomorrow.

 

If you're getting it off steam, you could always pre-load, then head to http://store.steampowered.com/?cc=us. Log in, then get to the Dishonored page and click play. After that it'll unlock on your steam client and you can play as you want.

(Note: Last time I tried this was several months ago, not sure if it still works.)

Annnnnd as just attempted by me, this no longer works. Still, VPNs do.

 

I finished the game. It took me about 13 hours to complete and it was pretty awesome. I wish that they could have made a longer ending, or even some more explanation as to what happens in regards to yourself (Corvo) down the road. I played the chaos way. Killing everyone as long as they held a weapon. It was pretty awesome...I upgraded both blink and shadow kill to the max and then just killed everything.......it was very easy ( I played it on Hard difficulty) would I want to play it again? I don't know. I would have to wait awhile but I think I could play it again in a few months. It's worth the money.

 

Yeah that's way easier. I'm doing mostly stealth through the levels and taking my sweet time but it real hard when youre choking out all the guards straight ghost.

 

Anyone going to try it without killing anything?

 

I was going for a chaotic ending, but I had something of a change of heart about a third of the way through when one of the guards said "You just made someone a widow, you bastard!" So I kept things pretty nonlethal for the rest of the game...

Until the very end.

Spoiler

I swear to any and all deities in existence, I got so pissed off with the Loyalists that I just started killing everything that got in my way. And when Samuel had the balls to tell me he was disappointed in me for being brutal I just about snapped.

 

I really wanted to kill him because he started mouthing off when I was getting off the boat but I refrained. I'll get him next playthrough.

 

So after the game came finally out in Germany so now I can review it..

Graphic and controlling are ok and the game has a furious start. It offers you a lot of ways to move, even if blink plus rooftops is sadly often the easiest way. The difficulty is too easy as long as you kill everything, as soon as you try sneaking around and getting ghost it becomes a lot more challenging.
The story is not great but kept me motivated especially at the end when I wanted to kill everything. Still the middle feels a bit short, one or two missions more would have been great because now the plot feels a bit rushed. The characters could also be a bit more fleshed out. I also missed a Dossier or something like that in which you could collect the information about your targets.

Still it was enjoyable game even if the hype around it was a bit too much.

 

The game's already frozen at a certain point for me, sadly. When you have to go to the Distillery for Granny Rags.

 

I'm enjoying the Gameplay and combat but the graphics were a bit dissapointing on PC. barely using 35% GPU load and the textures seem to have a low resolution.

 

Enjoyed it. It was a massive bonus that the game carried on after the return to Dunwall.

Have to agree with ^. The graphics were massively disappointing.

Do look forward to see what added content there is down the line
