verdict? worth getting the goty package?
>>
How much are you paying, OP? It's worth about $30-$40 imo. Just pretty short. Really fun game though, DLC is even better.
>>
>>323430098
10 euro / 11 USD for the goty.

it looks like a solid pc port too.
>>
It isn't too long but I found it to be very replayable, one of my favorite games in recent years.

If you've played Thief don't go in expecting stealth mechanics as intricate, Dishonored is more of an action game with stealth possibilities

The DLC is also the best part of the game
>>
>>323429994
It's great, like deus ex on steroids.
Story DLCs are great too.
>>
well it must at least be decent if a game in a verdict thread on /v/ doesnt get completely roasted 2 replies in, so I guess I'm gonna get it for 10 bucks then.
>>
Best Thief game since Thief 2. Loads of replay value. Knife of Dunwall and Brigmore Witches are great DLC. The trials one is a bit shit.
>>
>>323431836
it's more of a deus ex game imo - hub areas, magical powers, loads of lore text on levels, conspiracies and secret societies.
>>
>>323429994
One of the best games of last generation. Open ended levels, multiple optional objectives, great art direction, fun powers and ability to not kill anyone. Story DLC is great or arguably better than the main game as well.

I wish it was a bit harder, story is kinda shit and that the game wasn't so filled with HUD markers everywhere. But other than that, it's amazing. Arkane is one of the rare few companies that still makes proper games.

For 10 bucks goty absolutely, 9/10 story, gameplay, and setting

Very good, Highly recommended

If you want to have a fun challenge run, play a Ghost playstyle without ever using any magic (except for the few times when you are forced to Blink).

I really wish it was longer although I haven't gotten around to playing the DLCs yet.
It just feels like a game that should've been 5 hours longer - you barely get to use any of the crap that you unlock.
>>
Also unless you have a huge boner for going non lethal, I'd advise you not to be too scared to kill people every now and then.
Going non lethal will lock you out of a whole bunch of weapons and gadgets that can be fun to experiment with - and as long as you don't kill everyone in sight, you can still have a pretty high kill count and get the low chaos ending.

Are you kidding? There's a trophy that requires you not to kill anyone during the whole run. And another trophy that requires you to be UNSEEN during the whole game.

There is a gnome achievement for HL2, does this make it a gnome carrying game?
Dishonored have very fleshed out combat mechanics, you can ignore them, but you can't ignore the fact that high chaos playstyle is where most dev time went, compared do stealth and especially non-lethal stealth.
DLCs make some improvements giving non-lethal players some new toys, but still not close enough to all the shit high chaos player can do.
>>
Get it OP. One of my favorite games from lastgen.

The fact that the final boss (in the DLC) is basically a tribute to Thief TDP was awesome too.

hm is there savescumming in this game or are you truly fucked if you make a small mistake 5 hours in and get seen?

What, powers/weapons/missions do you expect from Dishonored 2?
I want some sort of illusion power that makes you look like a guard or something like that, so you can pass right in front of the guards and they won't notice a thing
>>
>>323434228
>>323434280
My point is that Dishonored can truly be a stealth game if you want it to be. It was conceived like this.
The atmosphere and the ending even change depending on how you play.
>>
>>323419471
Do yourself a big favor and read the in game books too. The game does a nice job of establishing lore and world building
>>
>>323435163
>can truly be a stealth game if you want it to be
That's exactly what was said here
>>323431250
>action game with stealth possibilities
>>
>>323435163
It's a much weaker stealth game than an action game though, judging by the number of options for every path.
Like, I enjoy playing Far Cry 2 as a stealth game, running around with my silenced pistol, clearing camps without ever getting spotted, but I wouldn't call it a stealth game
>>
>>323434228
>Theres way more skills/moves that are offensive/lethat compared to stealthy/not lethal ones
Blink, non-lethal.
Dark Vision, non lethal.
Devouring Swarm, lethal.
Posession, non lethal.
Bend Time, non lethal.
Wind Blast, only lethal on lvl2 and only if used in a specific way.
Vitality, passive. Non-lethal.
Bloodthristy, passive. Non-lethal but improves lethal runs.
Agility, non-lethal.
Shadow Kill, non lethal but improves lethal runs.

>way more
Clearly not way, and clearly not more.

>you can get through the game by killing every enemy you meet
And you can get through the game without killing a single person.

What options are those? Because the game emphasizes a lot in the different paths and approaches to reach an objective.

The DLC's that follow Daud are honestly better than the main game, I would thoroughly recommend you get them.

>>323435262
Not sure why I replied to that other thread
>>
>>323429994
Base game is Ok.
DLC is amazing.
>>
>>323435604
On the other hand, it gives you a bunch of lethal weapons, only two ways you can take out someone without killing is either through choking or sleep darts, everything else kills
>>
>>323435604
Bloodthirsty isn't lethal per se, since it's a passive, but it has only effects when actually using it to kill things, so you might as well count it as lethal. But you're right, I recalled there being more lethal moves
All the weapons or attack moves, except for the sleep dart and chokes, are lethal moves, though
>>
>>323436415
>>323436504
Lethality has nothing to do with stealth, though. You can do a perfect stealth run while killing hundreds.
You guys are mistaking lethality with non-stealth.
>>
>>323436415
I liked to use the regular bolts to get guards to move. They would investigate the sound if you shot a wall somewhere.
>>
>Initial release date: 2016
At least i have something to wait for. This and dude sex in august
>>
So... why is the DLC so amazing? I haven't played it.
>>
>>323437063
Daud is a much more interesting character to follow than Corvo. The story too is better.
>>
>>323437005
I've read somewhere that it was pushed to 2017
>>
>>323437063
Shows the story from bad guy's perspective, for me this is the biggest factor. Plot is great and it's very well tied to original story
Bad guy have a voice and sounds fucking badass
Gives you cool powers right of the bat, have faster player progression than main game in general
Have more options for non-lethal
New levels are great
>>
it's fucking boring and super easy. Consolecucks ate it up cos MUH steam punk stealth.

Skip it and play mgs5
