Adam Dodd: "Every so often a game comes along that is truly unforgettable. We’re adrift in a sea of sequels, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to find a new experience. Don’t get me wrong, I love me a good sequel, and I’m very much looking forward to games like Halo 4, Assassin’s Creed III, and Far Cry 3 later this year, but one thing those games can’t provide is the feeling that comes with immersing yourself in a world you’ve never seen before. This makes Dishonored a breath of fresh air. because it’s more than unique — it’s also beautiful, twisted, and insanely fun."
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.
