OXCGN’s Dishonored Preview

OXCGN:

"It’s safe to say that Dishonored is one of the most unique titles releasing in 2012.

The best way of describing it would be the atmosphere, mood and tone of Thief, combined with everything that made the Deus Ex franchise great: a plethora of gameplay styles, and multiple approaches to every situation.

Dishonored will have absolutely no problem standing out from the crowd come October."

Really excited for this game!! Glad something different on a AAA scale is coming out this year.

Eske4267d ago

I really think this one's gonna be a surprise game of the year contender. I still don't quite get why it's not getting more buzz.

Proeliator4267d ago

I guess most gamers are turned off by not being constantly told what to do or aren't too intrigued with NOT being funneled down linear corridors.

BadCircuit4267d ago

I'm turned off by the whole "Follow me", "hurry up" linear games out there!

I was waiting for Thief 4 to finally come out, but at least there is this one in the meantime!

gaminoz4267d ago

This game is going to be one of those "missed" games until people hear from more adventurous gamers how good it is.

It should hopefully then get a second wind in sales and show that doing something different to most these days in a cool environment can win fans as well as critics.

Capt-FuzzyPants4267d ago

If this game is even half as good as Deus Ex Human Revolution then I'll have to try it out. Deus Ex is one of my favorite games this gen and although this doesn't look as good as DE it still looks pretty good and very fun.

The Magic of 'Dishonored’s' Blink

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.

It felt kinda cheap to me… both in terms as a tactic, and game design

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

Abnor_Mal431d ago

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.
