Four Ways That Dishonored Will Be Like Assassin’s Creed (And Why That’s a Good Thing)

Bethesda's supernatural assassin game Dishonored is the perfect competitor to Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed 3, but just how similar are they?

And I got 9 agrees, 33 disagrees for saying they looked similar after watching the first trailer.

Jasmino9244368d ago

They really do, it's unbelievable. I think they can coexist in the same market though, based on the serious plot and base material differences, don't you?

kamruk4368d ago

Questioning the coexistence is something where you have to look at both titles more openly. The thing is, it looks like other games in a good way to me, like Uncharted. Uncharted "took" a lot of ideas, but created its own identity. Eventhough Dishonored looks like Skyrimshock's Creed, I'm loving it and it's doing something new, therefore not taking up AC's place.

skyrimshocks creed, i'd pay for that.

Im glad he leaving. Bethesda has been terrible under his leadership. Redfall, Starfield, Fallout76 and the list goes on an on. His leadership style is outdated. Hopefully, MS bring someone in that knows what they are doing.

RhinoGamer88192d ago

I will give you Fallout 76, but Redfall and Starfield's blame needs to fall somewhat on the terrible Xbox publishing team. With all their resources and supposed smarts...they fungled it.

VenomUK192d ago

@Mika He’s the communications guy - you can’t blame him for the quality of the product.

jznrpg192d ago

Maybe they can go to their earlier purchases for replacements . Like Rare devs , Gear devs or 343, one of the very few studios they built up and man they are great.

Crows90192d ago

That could work ...if MS knew what they were doing themselves ...

But let's be real. Xbox was in charge of redfall and Starfield. They just don't know what a good game looks like.

RhinoGamer88192d ago

I interviewed at Bethesda once, and while there were some very smart mid level team members, the upper ranks (EP/VP/Studio Head) were a total boys' club. The Madmen series ego in that lunch was stiffling.

Pete Hines was against locking out the majority of their console playerbase (ps gamers). Probably disgusted at the hypocrisy of white knight Phil assuring PS gamers that they can still play COD. Acquisition goes through, Hines goes out.

Goodbye Pete.

gold_drake192d ago

i wonder if he was asked to leave.

im pretty sure not everyone was on board with the acquisition.

Profchaos191d ago

Pretty much everyone outside of Todd has made snide comments against the acquisition but money talks

Non-playable characters in certain games are meme material, thanks to their foolish behavior. These are the big-budget games with the dumbest NPCs.

Bethesda makes the most consistently stupid NPCs, like really bad... yet I still can't help but love playing their games. Guilty pleasure, I guess. *sigh* 😩

Flawlessmic265d ago

How did redfall not make the cut.

Every Bethesda game and Every Halo game. This list needed to have Cyberpunk somewhere.

My first thought was the safe rooms in the resident evil series. When you hear that enchanting music you know you’re safe.

Killer2020UK271d ago

I literally just came here to post this. That music in the Resi 1 safe rooms is playing in my head.

Rimeskeem270d ago

I was thinking TLOU work benches. Although I remember one time where it was a false security.

closed_account270d ago

Perfect. 👌👌

I'd add the top of my highrise apartment in GTA Online. That calm, quiet peace, just knowing as soon as I step out that door I will be bombarded by 8 and 12 year olds calling each other n**** and f****, trolled by combat jets and rocket launchers.

The entire map of SotC is peaceful as hell. Used to just ride around exploring it.

mastershredder270d ago (Edited 270d ago )

Afterlife in Cyberpunk 2077 is a peaceful area? Erm, hands down and very hard to miss, Misty Olszewski's Esoterica is the absolute epitome of peaceful areas in that game.

raiden_188270d ago

The "last of us" deer location i found to be a welcoming respite. It was nice to not have someone trying to eat me.

RPGer270d ago

Kingdom Hearts tend to present half peaceful areas and most of them are amazing.
