For years, Ubisoft has wanted to make you feel like the ultimate bad ass. You’re given a death-dealing hidden blade, super human strength and transformed into a monk-looking killing machine. Yet despite the franchise’s constant attempts to draw me in, I (Adam) still don’t buy it. Assassinations are too directed, battles are often a breeze and it all controls like a grizzly bear on roller skates. Now it seems Ezio and his pals have finally been overthrown by the newest cool kid on the block – Dishonored.
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.
Dishonored's engaging lore, creative levels, and timeless gameplay are well worth revisiting for fans of the immersive sim and stealth genre.
Daily Video Game writes: "Xbox Store has just kicked off Arkane Studios publisher sale, offering up to 80% off on some of the best games from Arkane Studios, including Deathloop, Dishonored, and Prey for Xbox Series X/S and Xbox One right now!"
Amazing game.
