I can't fucking wait for Dishonored 2. It's still almost half a year away. I don't know if the new Deus Ex and the rest of Hitman will be able to keep me entertained that whole time, familia.
I'm looking forward to it as well but:
>Re-using Corvo and Emily instead of coming up with new characters
>Fucking re-using Delilah after we already killed her or voided her in the DLC
For what purpose?
>>344452017
>not wanting a following to the first game
>thinking a witch can be killed so easily
Ironic that Deus Ex is my favorite game of all time and I think Dishonored 2 will be a better sequel to it than Mankind Divided will
>>344452305
>inb4 everyone is revived as a witch
>>344451782
I hope they improved the cuhrayzee on this. mechanics of the first game are incredible and I've seen a lot of shit in my day let me tell you that.
>>344451782
At least be subtle with the shilling.
>>344452017
>Re-using Corvo and Emily instead of coming up with new characters
What's the problem with this?
Should we gather for whiskey and cigars tonight?
It's either this or Hitman 6 for GOTY. Wouldn't be surprised if this ends up being one of the best games of the generation.
>>344452594
>guy starts a thread, voicing his excitement over a game
>he must therefore be a shill
This fucking meme has to end.
>>344452342
MD isn't a sequel to DX1
>>344452624
Never doubt it!
>>344452624
NEVER DOUBT IT
>>344452624
Blow off, choffer
>>344452624
Indeed, I believe so.
Are the DLCs self-contained or do they add to the base game? I hear both are great but I've never bothered to get either
>>344452760
>hitman 6
am I being meme'd?
I hope they fix the inherent flaws of the original, like the peaceful options being viable and not effecting the ending
Or the runes not being randomly distributed
>>344452017
I agree, they should have made new characters.
Threadly reminder: Stephen Russell, pure sex: the voice, GOTY confirmed.
Yeah I'm really excited too.
>>344452017
This way we at least have characters we know are fine and have motives and such. It's better than them just throwing away all the characters and creating shittier ones. I actually like that they're bringing Delilah back.
>>344452587
There might be more melee mechanics. Like it seems there could be a kicking button or at least a melee button that sometimes kicks. The melee looks like hold to attack too rather than click to attack like the first game. Maybe they'll do directional attacks like in that other game, can't remember the name at the moment.
>>344453137
You play as the guy that killed the empress trying to keep a witch from possessing Emily.
>>344452305
>>344452618
Corvo and Emily's story was well concluded in Dishonored 1, as was Daud's and Delilah's. This just seems like a contrived sequel.
Would have been much cooler if they just went to Serkonos with brand new protagonists and antagonists, of course The Outsider would remain as he's an overseeing entity, and you could have a few cameos or references to the events of the first game but not make them completely related.
Re-using Corvo and Emily kind of sucks, but re-using Delilah really makes no sense whatsoever, she had the perfect demise at the end of the DLC's.
>>344452017
Delilah is bullshit, but Corvo especially had room to be developed and Emily being trained from a young age and also be a ruler offers up interesting developments.
Delilah is just lazy shit, the Daud DLC doesn't matter because in the end she gets what she wants at the start of Dishonored 2
>>344453238
I want to fuck that unicorn
>>344452587
The first Dishonored was already pretty cuhrazee if you knew what you were doing. Although I did notice that they made the melee system a bit more dynamic and more akin to Dark Messiah.
>>344453137
Two of them, the Knife of Dunwall and the Brigmore Witches, have you play as the princess's asassin. I'm enjoying them so far
>>344453670
Merigold is not for sexual anon.
>>344453670
hey anon
ever gotten your dick sucked by an unicorn?
>>344452814
I meant sequel as in successor, not chronologically.
>>344453137
All three of them are self-contained. Trials is a pure gameplay deal with challenges and shit. Then there are the two Daud DLC's that form a story together.
>>344453171
Nah. Hitman 6 is great, m8.
What's the canon ending for D1? Benevolent Emily and non-lethal Corvo (since him sparing Daud is canon)? Why would a benevolent Emily become an assassin?
Whatever, I'll probably pirate it.
>>344453183
>I hope they fix the inherent flaws of the original, like the peaceful options being viable and not effecting the ending
What? Peaceful options are viable affect the ending. Or are you saying you don't want them to be viable or affect the game?
>>344454521
>Why would a benevolent Emily become an assassin?
She's not an assassin (until Delilah overthrows her) but it makes sense that considering her mother was killed by an assassin that she would want to have at least some skills to defend herself.
>>344453635
>Delilah is just lazy shit, the Daud DLC doesn't matter because in the end she gets what she wants at the start of Dishonored 2
Yeah, this pisses me off. Why not just make a new villain? Would have been way more interesting.

>>344454521
The canon play through is a mix of things. They decided on what Corvo does for each decision and set the game based on that pre-determined path. We know for example that he spared Daud, but he might not have been as merciful on others.
>>344454913
Considering that Emily's decision as to whether be a tyrannical empress who crashes ships into each other just to watch people drown, or be someone that values life, is based on Corvo's decisions, it's probably leaning more towards non-lethal.
>>344455061
It's definitely the low chaos ending, but I wouldn't be surprised if most of the targets are considered assassinated.
Also, prepare for something in the game to contradict the last slides of that ending too. I mean, by virtue of there being this huge conflict, it already kind of does.
>>344455061
>that scene where you're poisoned at the bar in the high-chaos path
Creepy as fuck.
They obviously had the idea of Emily with powers planned since D1, since the Outsider visits Emily in her dreams in the game.
He also visited Sokolov, but for some reason decided to just give him cool invention ideas instead (though he can't seem to remember the dreams, since he still goes on about wanting to meet the Outsider).
Anyone else hoping for Daud to be back in some capacity? Id love to play him in DLC again.
>>344456798
We are in his home town, so he might
I hope Sokolov is back. Genius who is with whatever leader that gives him his freedom of research
>>344451782
it's the same story again baka
>>344457785
it's a bit more forgivable when they openly acknowledge and embrace it, though
>>344451782
I could never get into the first one.
It just felt really off.
>>344451782
Itll be as shitty and small as the first one was. and doubly overhyped
>>344459181
Dishonored's levels weren't as large as Thief's but they were still a good size. Especially if you count every part together and ignore the loading screens. And I think I remember Harvey saying they were trying as best they could to keep from having to load mid mission, which is one of the main things I wanted them to focus on for the new game.
>>344453335
Is there an actual kick or is it just a finisher or otherwise context sensitive move?
>>344459659
We don't know right now.
>>344459487
I'm pretty sure Harvey already confirmed there will be loadings inside missions. It's unfortunately completely unavoidable with maps as big as Dishonored with this level of quality.
>>344460410
I'm sure there will be I just think he said they avoid it whenever possible so there probably won't be as many as in the first game.
>>344454656
He means that doing a no-kill / low chaos run is a pain in the ass because the levels and the powers are designed around killing people.
To be honest the game looks too similar to the first Dishonored.
>>344459487
The problem with dishonored's level isn't the size. The problem was they try to have MANY DIFFERENT PATHS and ended up making every other paths short and shitty.
>>344452017
This, I was expecting a new set of cooler characters. That story is done and over. This new place seems like a mix of france and africa for me so I thought maybe we'd get either a cool frenchie protag/antag or acool black girlor just something else besides corvo and emily
>>344461396
Serkonos is based on southern Europe like Italy and Greece.
I haven't kept up with the news for this game.
How the hell is Delilah back?
>>344461578
We don't know. She's still alive so the ending that's canon is locking her in the painting but she somehow manages to escape.
>>344461539
oh maybe it was the scenery that fooled me either way. I just hope majority of the game doesnt have the same design of buildings in this one, and hopefully it has some genuine creepy sections, thief my shit up arkane
>>344460729
>He means that doing a no-kill / low chaos run is a pain in the ass because the levels and the powers are designed around killing people.
I see what you mean, in my opinion thegit gud____________________________________________________________________________
>>344461396

>>344461772
>He's a Thief1fag
Thief 2 is better, bitch
Man, how are people even hyped for Dishonored 2? I played the first last week and it was the most boring shit ever. Only piqued my interest in the last 2 or 3 missions, from the moment we get locked up in Daud's prison and onwards.
>>344452017
Im fine with Emily but Delilah being back really cheesed me off
Could have been fun to do a sort of prequel where Jessamine is a side character, maybe something crazy like an expedition to Pandyssia
>>344459659
You could do similar shit with the slide in 1 so I assume its just a move you can use
>>344456038
Outsider directly says that Sokolov is too boring for him
Piero is the one that dreams about the outsider aand gets some inspiration from him
