Last year, The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings wowed us from the off with graphics that were simply jaw-dropping, but this year we have to admit that our favourite game of GamesCom didn't provide the same type of initial punch. Dishonoured doesn't look graphically impressive.
The brightness seems far to high, with the shadows curiously lacking for a game that tries to sell itself at least partly on its stealth features. It doesn't help that the palette is washed out either; grey and beige dominate your view of the world, giving Dishonoured a distinctly chalky feel.
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.
