Now that we know the release date for Arkane Studios upcoming, adventure game – Dishonored (9 October), we thought we'd dig up a few interesting facts about the title to get you all as excited about it as we are.
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.
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!"
I'm tired of people saying that Dishonored is a "steampunk" game. As far as I know, steampunk refers to an alternate history where combustion engines were never invented and everything is steam-powered. That isn't this game. The devs have come out and said, and I quote "This is not a steampunk game" so I don't know why everyone keeps thinking it is.
And I also don't know why the author of this article seems to think that Bioshock was also a steampunk game? Pretty sure that there wasn't any steam anywhere in either game... at all
Hey Steampunk refers to more than Alternate history, it's genre is associated with a whole look. When people mention Dishonored and steampunk they are referring to the look and alternate history aspect of the game.
Thinking of steampunk and steam is taking the genre in a manor that is too literal..
