You know what have been a better narrative is that Corvo and Emily were separated and that Corvo would stay in Dunwall eliminating Delilah's allies and Emily would go to Karnaka. I'm not saying I hate the game, it was FANTASTIC to play I just wish they had their own narratives to play through. Like two stories in one game. That would have been awesome.
I thought the same, but it would require them to make AT LEAST 7 more levels while keeping the same amount of polish. They could have reduced the amount of levels each storyline had, but that would mean cutting some fantastic content, so... There's always fanfiction :P
I think they should do another where either 1 is on one mission and the next happens canonically at the same time as the other character. Or a multiplayer that would be hilarious.
@@neopath5998 i agree with you, if you ever played Transformers: Fall of cybertron every level was a different character's point of view but in another level you could see the previous character you played as doing something, but you see it as a different character in a different point of view.
Arkane used the same method in Prey's ending ("this person and then this person and then..." etc) for better or worse. I've put hundreds of hours into Dishonored 2 and Prey and while I love them both immensely, I'm just not sure why they've decided that this approach is the way to end such outstanding (imo) games.
leon bushnell yeah the jet lighter is pretty awesome. hey man I've been there used one of my stoves elements to light a cigar before but hey at least I had a cigar that makes it kind of classy right?
That's actually a bit difficult. Indeed, the main story is mostly around Emily getting her throne back, while seeing how her subject was suffering under her. But the side plot with the Heart, is definitivley for Corvo, with seeing how he himself has changed. (going to his house, finding out how his mother lived after he was sent away, etc.) So if I am to answer your queation with any conviction, I need to do more research. But now, all I can say that it works for them both
Attention citizens and visitors to our city. By order of the regent, all dishonoured reviews has been prohibited unless accompanied by a member of the watch. Also, a RUclips wide ban of all whiskey and cigars except for Dunwall brand whiskey and Dunwall cigars is now in effect.
I personally really liked how there are nonlethal counterparts to near every lethal option. In the first Dishonored, it was a pain to do low chaos because you could only stealthily choke someone out or use your very limited sleep darts.
Spoiler: (Stanton mansion). A part in the game that I love so much is the Mansion where we can go to the past / present. I was like "I wonder if one day, they'll really do time travel well, like if I kill/Stunt the dude that will go crazy, He will not be with Delliah and the manor will be fine" I save, and test that, just for fun. THEN BOOOM the manor is fine. I was REAAAALLY impressed, that game is so good.
Honestly, that's very arguable. In D2 you could in real time see another time dimension through the heart, changes you do in the past have more impact on the level and game themselves. In TF2 time traveling is faster and somewhat more fluid. Plus you have some cool interactions on the level. But that's it. Personally, I prefer D2 variant, but TF2's variant very cool too.
it's so obivious that you take the making of your vids very seriously. very creative and funny. the fact that u do it in a foreign language to you is very admirable. keep it up buddy
It was nice seeing sokolov again, and his reactions to seeing Emily and Corvo again in Jindoshes mansion. Also, I played Emily first because I like to try new things, and Corvo after. I personally like playing Emily more story wise because I didn't want Emily to still feel like a little girl waiting to be rescued, and learn more about her. One of the most interesting things was finding out about her affair with Wyman, and her perspective on things. Overall, if your playing Dishonored 2 and wan't to see Corvo again for nostalgia, play him, but if you want to see how she developed as a person, play Emily.
Hurrah! Dishonored has to be one of my favorite games in the past decade. I wonder if there's any new content based on if you have a Dishonored save file. That sht wld be epic.
Interview came out today that said there should be a major patch for PC this coming month, in addition to New Game + and "customizable difficulty". So don't lose faith on the PC version just yet :)
Aside from the narrative nitpicks (Flow of ending resulting from choices), a similar thing I have a problem with is the choppiness of some of the voiced line delivery. If you listen to the outsider or any other character speak, they have this rushed feeling, leaving no pauses between sentences. Even though the lines are well acted, it sounded like they were done by a team trying to finish up within a few minutes. This made the outsider, who I enjoyed listening to in his pondering, thoughtful speech, seem like more of an exposition machine to give Corvo backstory on targets as quickly as possible.
Okay, first things first, I don't have a powerful rig and when I say, it falls in mid-low range... I have an AMD Radeon R5 M330 (which actually doesn't even meet the minimum requirements) and I can play Dishonored 2 without any kind of issues... I was also worried that I might never be able to play the game but the game is completely patched and I didn't witness any kind of glitch or even the dreaded frame drops.... And, with the addition of New Game + and other updates, I think Arkane Studios have pretty much surpassed its predecessor.... Yes, story-wise, I think Dishonored 1 was better but frankly, I think in games like Dishonored, gameplay is the most important aspect... And, personally, I feel that Dishonored 2 just refined and perfected the gameplay experience... The AI is more challenging and I think, D2 is a game where it's up to you to discover the story... There is a main story which is on the surface and there are all these stories that you discover reading notes, listening to audiographs or inspecting various objects, like paintings are so well done and really helps in building the lore of the world... Frankly, I am so thrilled to play again as Corvo and the sub plot of the Heart which we now know contains a fragment of Jessamine's soul.... My eyes were literally wet with tears when I watched the farewell scene between Corvo and Jessamine (especially in Low Chaos).... I think, it was the most powerful scene in the whole game.... The main story belongs to Emily but the environmental stories and other sub plots like the one mentioned above, definitely belongs to Corvo. I enjoy playing with both the characters but I preferred playing as Corvo, either due to sentimental reasons or just because I felt he was the character that I could connect with more.... My first playthrough took me nearly 80 hours to complete because I was literally spending at least 8-12 hours on every mission trying to find every single collectible (runes, bonecharms, paintings or blueprints), along with reading every note, book or listening to audiographs and conversations of other people, or even the Heart.... But, once you familiarize with the level and mission designs, it is actually possible to finish a mission in about 20-40 minutes.... In fact, in my brutal speedrun where I only focused on completing the main objectives, it just took me about 6-8 hours to finish the game... Addition of more non-lethal items and powers which can either be used for both violence and stealth have just enhanced the gameplay experience.. I loved the protagonists (even though, I loved the silent Corvo) are now voiced... Sometimes, they really make some moments special... For example, there is one really beautiful short scene in the Royal Conservatory mission (with Corvo), where he talks how Jessamine didn't like her hair styled as a bun but preferred to let her hair free.... Or, a scene where a pair of Overseers are discussing about how the head of the Overseers lost all of his respect and was ruined for life when he was branded (speaking about low chaos assassination in the first mission of the original Dishonored) and after hearing it, I was literally stunned for a few short moments.... These scenes are so short and simple, but they just make the game even more memorable... And, the best part that people who are rushing through the game will miss it... So, those who spend time exploring it will definitely have a more rewarding experience.... Bonecharm Crafting is really wonderful addition and can make a hell lot of difference in your playstyle and experience, especially in later playthroughs (or even the first, if you know what you are doing)... They just add to the whole Dishonored philosophy of 'play as you desire'.... New Game +, No Powers mode, unique and amazing level designs, different approaches to tackling the same objective just provides the perfect platform for an infinite number of possibilities and open the door to countless number of playthroughs and a ton of replay value. Must have for any gamer.... With the issues on PC now fixed, this game should be part of every person's library...
It doesn't matter if it plays flawlessly now; when it was released, it was trash. Now it has been patched, and it is pretty perfect, but when you review a game, you have to take into consideration what state it is in when it is out the gates. And all of the stuff they have added later "should" have been in the game at release; the mission select was in D1 at the beginning! Why not here? Today it is a complete experience, but when I made this video, it felt unfinished. I myself said that Dishonored is about the gameplay mostly, but that does have its negative that some stuff, like the heart, takes a backseat when it could have been something truly special. I love this series, but in my eyes, they have become less and less fantastic with each game: D1: I love it with a passion D2: I like it alot, I consider it a good sequel. Could have been better, but still good. Death of the Outsider: F-ing hate it. Should this be a "must own"? Personally I think not, as this genre isn't for everyone, but for those who enjoy stealth with super abilities; then yes, absolutly.
King J. Grim I agree with how u like the 1st game and I agree with death of the outsider but for some reason I just don’t like the 2nd game, idk what it is about it it just doesn’t make me feel the way I did when I played the 1st game
I so classy AF that I kill my enemies with whiskey and cigars. I'm so good in fact I heard I might get my own sqaud, but I hear that might not happen because of someone named Daud DAMN YOU DAUD!!!
I really enjoy your videos! You deserve ALOT more subscribers... I loved Dishonored 2 as much as you did, amazing game! Keep up the good work on your videos, and I hope to see more in the future!
King J. Grim Ah, I thought you were refering to the *spoiler alert if you haven't beat the game* Daud cameo at the end with the audiograph. I have to wonder how Corvo/Emily would react to it. I was a little disapointed that there was no player reaction there.
I totally loved Dishonored 2. And i gotta agree with you on your points. The game felt a bit short to me, and if i wasn't going after all runes and bonecharms i would have finished it for the half the time i did originally. And the final mission was indeed kinda underwhelming. I finished it pretty fast, was not detected once, and it just ended pretty quiet and easy, although i didn't manage to use correctly the corrupted rune and i had to kill her. I expected a bit more from the end and just a little longer gameplay maybe. I liked it that i couldn't find any codes online and i had to do everything on my own. Definitely improved the game for me, wasn't too hard. And i agree with a comment bellow would have been awesome to have different lines for Corvo and Emily.
I love imaging the thought process for the opening of this video. "Properly lighting cigars takes too long to make for an interesting shot... I'll just barely scorch it, most people won't tell the difference!" Incredible.
love the whisky and cigars reference. I'm glad to see another dishonored fan like myself. I've played the first dishonored 100+ times and im about to start my 2nd d2 run after beating it in 2 days. my favourite part was the teasing to dlc at the end. great video sir. we should gather for whisky and cigars sometime:)
I liked the game but I will say the original had way better character, this one did have a spinoff feeling to it. if you ask me they should just skip the corvo/emily story and go into a completely different time period and characters for the next game.
To me Dishonored 2 is to the first game what Bioshock Infinite was to Bioshock; an amazing game that gave me (and will continue to give me) hours of fun, but when compared to the original is not just as good.
That game was brilliant, dropped a few frames yeah, but it was nowhere near bad as some people speaked of it. Dishonored 1 was probably my favourite game in all existence just because of the gameplay aspects and the story revolving all around you and what you do instead of preset lines. Also, I respect the guys who could keep themselves from going on a killing spree on their first run of the game. After all that betrayal and plotting against you. I made sure I killed every hostile on every level, on both games.
Who's power set did you prefer? I found them more viable to specific chaos goals. High chaos was WAY more fun with Corvo, while Emily is a better fit for being a sneaky Pete.
Joseph & Kimberly Woodard can't really put one above the other, they are both fun to play. I will say that I was a bit let down by Emily's shadow form, as it pretty much only give you two stealth abilities, and no combat capabilities, plus would've been dope to have some special animation kills on the targets with the shadow form. But if I had to choose one, I'd say Corvo's powers, so much fun to play with the time ability
Haven't really used the swarm that much, don't really know how to use it in the entertaining spectrum of the gameplay department. Everytime I use it, it just feels so OP.
Don't hold back on your review, just make sure to forewarn that spoilers will be discussed. I felt underwhelmed by your not explaining why you were underwhelmed with the ending.
Huh? I get how it sucks you can't see the chaos of your actions on the districts you have been through via going back to them but i think that them not wasting an entire level on the same area as you have already been to is much more beneficial. But if it's personal i guess i can't argue that
Loved this video as well. The effort is overwhelming. I subscribed, and liked, I really enjoy these Dishonored videos. Great videos and fantastic channel truly. It has actually been a while since I have discovered such a good channel. So chill, its like sitting down and having a chat with a friend. Wonderful.
Dishonored is one of my favourite games because it manages to make a Victorian setting that doesn't make me puke whilst shouting "STEAMPUNKS F*** OFF!"
Dishonored 2 just lacks the Atomosphere of Dishonored 1 for me. I like it really much but I cant bring myself into playing it more sometimes, while I still beg to play Dishonored 1 after 150 hours
Just found you out through the Doom and Dishonored videos and wow, we have the exact same doubts on what makes Dishonored so great, nice video and cheers from Brazil.
I can see that you love Dishonored as much as I do. Do you think they'll make another continuation for Dishonored? I mean, the Outsider obviously gave his mark to others as well. It would be nice to play the game in their perspective.
Trust me the story that build up the character corvo is one the greatest story of gaming history without a doubt. I loved the game since i was in highschool. Still when i see the gameplay it gives me the same chilly feeling.love u corvo.
I feel like im the only one who really didn't like the game, not only because of optimization, but because the missions and story were boring. I felt like it was a chore to play the game, especially on the museum level and the back and forth in time level (dont remember the mission title on either, dont really care). Not to mention the story was just bland and lacking compared to the first one. In all, the game was a BIG let down, and I was so disappointed because dishonored was and still is my favorite game of all time.
the only mechanical gripe i have with d2 is the fucking leaning mechanic and oddly enough i have never had too many issues with the pc port (especially after the patches) the new powers and mechanics i fucking adore soooo much with them all culminating together in new game plus where you can use emily's op gear and corvo's extremely op time powers.
+King J. Grim What was the side plot that was so fascinating for you ? I played through the game twice now and i noticed a ton of easter eggs and shit, but i cant pinpoint what you were meaning with that subplot. But great review anyway. I hope they use some of the places in the dlcs also, so that this you dont see the change problem is a little bit better.
It would be sick if they made a third game, Where you have a squad of the outsiders people. The ones who have powers, And you have to stop another group of people with powers. And the whole world depends on it.
Do you think Emily had to be less violent because she was the empress and if she took her crown back by force people might turn against her. Besides she knows what violence leads too or do you think she'd do anything to claw her way back to the top
Theyve now fixed the pc optimization. My crap laptop can play it just fine (er i did set graphics to low but i do that for most games anyway on that laptop)
When you smoke a cigar you don't apply the flame directly to the cigar, that chars the cigar and gives a nasty flavor. What you do is you heat the air around the cigar about half an inch away and you turn the cigar so you don't just heat one part of it.
For me, Emily's far reach power is annoying, there were moments where it keeps pointing at the wrong platform and not the other platform I want to be on.
You know what have been a better narrative is that Corvo and Emily were separated and that Corvo would stay in Dunwall eliminating Delilah's allies and Emily would go to Karnaka. I'm not saying I hate the game, it was FANTASTIC to play I just wish they had their own narratives to play through. Like two stories in one game. That would have been awesome.
I'm surprised they didn't go the "optional co-op" route.
+Sam Geuvenen that might have been hard because one might kill relentlessly or on accident and you end up getting a bad ending
I thought the same, but it would require them to make AT LEAST 7 more levels while keeping the same amount of polish. They could have reduced the amount of levels each storyline had, but that would mean cutting some fantastic content, so...
There's always fanfiction :P
I think they should do another where either 1 is on one mission and the next happens canonically at the same time as the other character. Or a multiplayer that would be hilarious.
@@neopath5998 i agree with you, if you ever played Transformers: Fall of cybertron every level was a different character's point of view but in another level you could see the previous character you played as doing something, but you see it as a different character in a different point of view.
Do you think you'll get your own squad after what happened last night?
Indeed, I believe so.

I've put hundreds of hours into Dishonored 2 and Prey and while I love them both immensely, I'm just not sure why they've decided that this approach is the way to end such outstanding (imo) games.
I see what you did their in the intro with the whiskey and cigars nice reference to dishonored 1.
Will we gather for whiskeys and cigars TONIGHT?
Rats in everything..
I lost my shit when he said "but oh my gah"
Really hope that we'll get a in the mind of Emily kaldwin video from you king. J. Grim.
Dude you make the best videos. Also nice review convinced me to take a look at it and i will most likely get it when it is on sale
Thank you. And yes, highly recommend it if you enjoy stealth games
Man, im just tryna figure out that ending music
Hey King, should we gather for whiskey and cigars tonight?
Indeed, I believe so
How old did you say your sister was?
Never doubt it.

Chances are very good.
lighting a cigar with a lighter how 2nd class.
I've been more of the "Whiskey and Cigars" on-the-go. Therefore I need to focus on efficiency, rather than quality sadly
King J. Grim and I'm more of a 35 cans of cheap beer after the work week wearing my traditional jeans and sweater with a few burn marks on it hahaha.
leon bushnell yeah the jet lighter is pretty awesome. hey man I've been there used one of my stoves elements to light a cigar before but hey at least I had a cigar that makes it kind of classy right?
***** Let's all agree that using a campfire is on a league of its own
leon bushnell hahaha hipsters I forgot about them.
whos path is more canonical emily or corvo? im guessing emily cuz i think they would shift the story focus on her?
That's actually a bit difficult.
Indeed, the main story is mostly around Emily getting her throne back, while seeing how her subject was suffering under her.
But the side plot with the Heart, is definitivley for Corvo, with seeing how he himself has changed. (going to his house, finding out how his mother lived after he was sent away, etc.)
So if I am to answer your queation with any conviction, I need to do more research. But now, all I can say that it works for them both
King J. Grim im looking forward to see what you will find
King J. Grim wait you can visit corvos old house? WHERE?!?!
The Bear From Mars The dust district I think the area was called. On the left side of the overseer's HQ.
In DotO, it's confirmed in a note you find on the Dreadful Wale that it was, in fact, Emily on the boat.

I personally really liked how there are nonlethal counterparts to near every lethal option. In the first Dishonored, it was a pain to do low chaos because you could only stealthily choke someone out or use your very limited sleep darts.
You can do low chaos and still kill people. High chaos only triggers if you kill basically every NPC you come across.

I save, and test that, just for fun. THEN BOOOM the manor is fine.
I was REAAAALLY impressed, that game is so good.
Yeah, that mission was pretty amazing. Yet strangely, my favorite mission is the last one. Feel like they nailed the atmosphere
Secave the Titanfall version of that level was better
Honestly, that's very arguable. In D2 you could in real time see another time dimension through the heart, changes you do in the past have more impact on the level and game themselves. In TF2 time traveling is faster and somewhat more fluid. Plus you have some cool interactions on the level. But that's it. Personally, I prefer D2 variant, but TF2's variant very cool too.

I love the Amount of Effort you put in making this Amazing review. did they say that they going to fix the frame rate on PC for this game?
There are patches that they're adding. So that is really good.
Reviewing Dishonored with whiskey and cigars… I agree.
The first 30 seconds already deserve the like, classy as fuck!
Damn it, a whole 30 seconds? I need to improve!
:D I watched the rest as well, rest assured. Great review.
"How old did you say your sister was again?"

I would never lose faith in this game. But I am losing time to spend with it D:
Hey, do you think you'll do a in the mind of Emily Kaldwin? I always wanted to see that.
Also are you going to do a review on death of the outsider?
Drunken whaler is so creepy and I love it
Damn man, you're looking classy as F***!
As much as I hate to say it, with whiskey; anyone can be classy as F**k

I so classy AF that I kill my enemies with whiskey and cigars. I'm so good in fact I heard I might get my own sqaud, but I hear that might not happen because of someone named Daud
DAMN YOU DAUD!!!
I really enjoy your videos! You deserve ALOT more subscribers... I loved Dishonored 2 as much as you did, amazing game! Keep up the good work on your videos, and I hope to see more in the future!
You will definitivly see more soon!
"DAMN YOU DAUD!!"
Yes... damn him...

Holy shit how did you get that animation? That's badass.
The intro
Shall we gather for whisky and cigars tonight?
Will you do a review including spoilers? Having played the game multiple times I would like to see what you have to say about certain things.
This is my only review of Dishonored 2, but if it is the side plot you're wondering about, then the answer is the heart
King J. Grim Ah, I thought you were refering to the *spoiler alert if you haven't beat the game*
Daud cameo at the end with the audiograph. I have to wonder how Corvo/Emily would react to it. I was a little disapointed that there was no player reaction there.
M Cowher Have to agree with that. But I think Arkane doesn't want to make everything obvious about the characters. Keep stuff a bit mysterious
We should discuss this game over cigars and whiskey.
I totally loved Dishonored 2. And i gotta agree with you on your points. The game felt a bit short to me, and if i wasn't going after all runes and bonecharms i would have finished it for the half the time i did originally. And the final mission was indeed kinda underwhelming. I finished it pretty fast, was not detected once, and it just ended pretty quiet and easy, although i didn't manage to use correctly the corrupted rune and i had to kill her. I expected a bit more from the end and just a little longer gameplay maybe. I liked it that i couldn't find any codes online and i had to do everything on my own. Definitely improved the game for me, wasn't too hard. And i agree with a comment bellow would have been awesome to have different lines for Corvo and Emily.
I love imaging the thought process for the opening of this video. "Properly lighting cigars takes too long to make for an interesting shot... I'll just barely scorch it, most people won't tell the difference!" Incredible.
Certain decisions one has to make during filming, for better or worse.
Do IN mind of DAUD!
love the whisky and cigars reference. I'm glad to see another dishonored fan like myself. I've played the first dishonored 100+ times and im about to start my 2nd d2 run after beating it in 2 days. my favourite part was the teasing to dlc at the end. great video sir. we should gather for whisky and cigars sometime:)
N/A indeed, I believe so!
I liked the game but I will say the original had way better character, this one did have a spinoff feeling to it. if you ask me they should just skip the corvo/emily story and go into a completely different time period and characters for the next game.
To me Dishonored 2 is to the first game what Bioshock Infinite was to Bioshock; an amazing game that gave me (and will continue to give me) hours of fun, but when compared to the original is not just as good.
That game was brilliant, dropped a few frames yeah, but it was nowhere near bad as some people speaked of it. Dishonored 1 was probably my favourite game in all existence just because of the gameplay aspects and the story revolving all around you and what you do instead of preset lines. Also, I respect the guys who could keep themselves from going on a killing spree on their first run of the game. After all that betrayal and plotting against you. I made sure I killed every hostile on every level, on both games.
Who's power set did you prefer? I found them more viable to specific chaos goals. High chaos was WAY more fun with Corvo, while Emily is a better fit for being a sneaky Pete.
Joseph & Kimberly Woodard can't really put one above the other, they are both fun to play. I will say that I was a bit let down by Emily's shadow form, as it pretty much only give you two stealth abilities, and no combat capabilities, plus would've been dope to have some special animation kills on the targets with the shadow form. But if I had to choose one, I'd say Corvo's powers, so much fun to play with the time ability
King J. Grim yup. The Rat Swarm is loads of fun as well.
Haven't really used the swarm that much, don't really know how to use it in the entertaining spectrum of the gameplay department. Everytime I use it, it just feels so OP.
The whole reason I did the low chaos Is because samual did not like me, that’s the only reason
Don't hold back on your review, just make sure to forewarn that spoilers will be discussed. I felt underwhelmed by your not explaining why you were underwhelmed with the ending.
probably because he compared it to the first game. Imagine if you eliminate the Lord Regent, and then it ends. that's what it felt like to me
It’s been 4 years and we still don’t have an fov option for console :(
Shall we gather for whiskey and cigars tonight?
OMG! NICE VID Man👏👏👏
i loved the begining you were more like Jindosh! lol
The gameplay in the dishonored games is absolutely addicting
Huh? I get how it sucks you can't see the chaos of your actions on the districts you have been through via going back to them but i think that them not wasting an entire level on the same area as you have already been to is much more beneficial. But if it's personal i guess i can't argue that
could've used the same area but expanded it and added a new element and different location of target, like the Distillery District
8:30 Damn you Daud?
Mate, mate, how the fuck didn't i know Killian had another channel. The fuck. Link that shit.
Co p this is the killian experience 2.0
Loved this video as well. The effort is overwhelming. I subscribed, and liked, I really enjoy these Dishonored videos. Great videos and fantastic channel truly. It has actually been a while since I have discovered such a good channel. So chill, its like sitting down and having a chat with a friend. Wonderful.
I glitched through the ground and I saw the void then I died
New subscriber here!! Thank you for looking past any PC version issues others are still dwelling on or that made many skip this genius game.
i wonder why don't u have more subscribers. ur videos are so interesting and funny!
Oh hey look, He's already Smoking Cigars and Drinking whiskey. But he's alone.
Dishonored is one of my favourite games because it manages to make a Victorian setting that doesn't make me puke whilst shouting "STEAMPUNKS F*** OFF!"
Dishonored 2 just lacks the Atomosphere of Dishonored 1 for me. I like it really much but I cant bring myself into playing it more sometimes, while I still beg to play Dishonored 1 after 150 hours
Just found you out through the Doom and Dishonored videos and wow, we have the exact same doubts on what makes Dishonored so great, nice video and cheers from Brazil.
you know you sound like kilian experience a lot.
just pointing out,makes your reviews sound more humorous
Searched him up, was not dissapointed. And therefore: Thank you!
huh,im happy you take it as a compliment.
Although dont rely on my comment much,im sick today and sligtly delirious
King J. Grim
I always thought he sounded more like 40k theories.
whiskey and cigars,classy as f**k😂
he really gathered for whiskey and Cigars
I can see that you love Dishonored as much as I do. Do you think they'll make another continuation for Dishonored? I mean, the Outsider obviously gave his mark to others as well. It would be nice to play the game in their perspective.
What side story from the first game are you talking about btw? I could think of one but that wasn't in the main game of Dishonored.
might be billy lurk? idk
Aidan Lynch Yes thought about that as well, but it sounded like it was something from the main game.
Bass Lightyeah I'm guessing it's the Outsiders origin
Ryluke1204 Oh yeah that could be.
Trust me the story that build up the character corvo is one the greatest story of gaming history without a doubt. I loved the game since i was in highschool. Still when i see the gameplay it gives me the same chilly feeling.love u corvo.
Will we get an in the mind of Emily kaldwin?
I feel like im the only one who really didn't like the game, not only because of optimization, but because the missions and story were boring. I felt like it was a chore to play the game, especially on the museum level and the back and forth in time level (dont remember the mission title on either, dont really care). Not to mention the story was just bland and lacking compared to the first one. In all, the game was a BIG let down, and I was so disappointed because dishonored was and still is my favorite game of all time.
the only mechanical gripe i have with d2 is the fucking leaning mechanic and oddly enough i have never had too many issues with the pc port (especially after the patches)
the new powers and mechanics i fucking adore soooo much with them all culminating together in new game plus where you can use emily's op gear and corvo's extremely op time powers.
Will a GTX 1070 be able to compensate for the shit optimization? I want to get this game, but not if it's going to run like old people fuck.
+King J. Grim
What was the side plot that was so fascinating for you ? I played through the game twice now and i noticed a ton of easter eggs and shit, but i cant pinpoint what you were meaning with that subplot. But great review anyway.
I hope they use some of the places in the dlcs also, so that this you dont see the change problem is a little bit better.
It would be sick if they made a third game,
Where you have a squad of the outsiders people. The ones who have powers,
And you have to stop another group of people with powers. And the whole world depends on it.
Subbed from the opening alone
Do you think Emily had to be less violent because she was the empress and if she took her crown back by force people might turn against her. Besides she knows what violence leads too or do you think she'd do anything to claw her way back to the top
Call me petty but I won't play this because they butchered The Outsider, The Void, no Daud or Piero and it just seems a bit too different
Typical arkane studio game. Never gets any recognition when they trully deserve it. Still heart broken that there is not a sequel to arx fatalis :C.
Theyve now fixed the pc optimization. My crap laptop can play it just fine (er i did set graphics to low but i do that for most games anyway on that laptop)
I LOVED it fucking epic it feels like in zone with dishonored 1 but still has so much more creativity that sets it apart
Dat intro do... classy as fu-
Dishonored 2 was better than Dishonored 1 IMO.
I can understand that. It is a fantastic game.
nice intro laught my ass off
I just played it.
I liked it but is a 7/10
There could have been more
The ending is more than underwhelming
In the DLC Emily goes after Daud !
Kharn526 i would hate emily if she killed daud, corvo and emily were great characters but Daud was the best.
When you smoke a cigar you don't apply the flame directly to the cigar, that chars the cigar and gives a nasty flavor. What you do is you heat the air around the cigar about half an inch away and you turn the cigar so you don't just heat one part of it.
i really want to play this game after playing D1 again. but it's just such shit, I cant play it without the game buggin about.
Honestly I played this game and then tried dishonored 1 for the first time and I ended up refunding it for 1 reason. Sprinting wasn’t toggle
Why are there so many santa's in the Background?
i cant stop looking at them.......
creeps me the fuck out o.O........
For me, Emily's far reach power is annoying, there were moments where it keeps pointing at the wrong platform and not the other platform I want to be on.
