Dishonored 2

« This is a title by a studio at the top of its game, lovingly crafted for players who enjoy lavishly crafted worlds and delightfully creative gameplay challenges. It's for the thieves, the mischief makers, the lovers of experimentation. It's for playful thinkers, for explorers, and for idealists and cynics alike. Dishonored 2 is stealth-action at its finest, and deserves every one of the awards it will no doubt be lavished with this winter. »

« Dishonored 2 takes everything you loved about Dishonored and improves upon it without becoming bloated. It's a beautifully designed, layered game, stuffed with hidden gems and secret stories. Also you can stab people in mid air. »

« A grim, gorgeous milieu of societal depth and cunning design. That its mechanics slot so naturally into its environment, giving players the freedom and choice to explore, influence and infiltrate means that Dishonored 2 represents the very best gaming has to offer. »

« Dishonored 2 returns with the formula that brought success to the first installment and makes it better. This game is better, bigger and with more choices. Arkane Studios has delivered a new masterpiece. »

« A superior sequel absolutely layered in emergent player opportunity and a true evolution of the enduringly robust foundation lain by its predecessor, Dishonored 2 sets a staggering high standard for its genre peers to try and follow. The waiting is over; your Game of the Year is here. »

« Inspired game design, great production values, serious themes and superb gameplay make Dishonored 2 a strong contender for the Game of the Year award. »

« This is one of those sequels that feels like a mission pack for the original. There’s a distinct feeling, as you go through Dishonored 2, that we’ve been here before, which even the characters themselves remark upon from time to time. That doesn’t make it a bad game, but it’s a slight sour note in what’s otherwise just as dense, manipulable, and customizable an experience as the original Dishonored. »

« In the end, I love this game. While it’s a slow starter plotwise, Dishonored 2 builds up wonderfully to a satisfying conclusion, with plenty of memorable challenges along the way. But more than anything else, it’s fun. It’s a gorgeous, deep, enjoyable piece of work, and I highly recommend it if you like stealth, exploration, or cool steampunk Portugal. See you in the Void. »

« Fantastic immersive sim. My favorite game on the original xbox. I think it's awesome. »

« Dishonored 2 is with no doubt The best game in year like 2016 Despite the existence of games like Doom & Uncharted 4 This game offer something special 100/10 »

« Dishonored 2 is one of those games that, when it works, shines with a personality that many modern AAAs would envy. Its level design is a masterclass, the aesthetics are a delight, and the powers allow you to play like a true artist of chaos or absolute stealth. It’s one of those titles that, at its best, makes you feel like you’re living an experience designed with both heart and **** of course, it’s not perfect. The story doesn’t quite reach the level of the first one, some abilities are so broken they almost beg you to abuse them, and there are technical details that jar more than they should. At times, you can tell that Arkane put all its talent into the design and aesthetics... and left other areas somewhat overlooked.Even so, I recommend it without hesitation if you like stealth games, if you enjoy exploring levels full of hidden routes, or if you’re the type who gets excited finding an absurd synergy between two abilities. Dishonored 2 is creative, elegant, and unique. It might not be perfect, but it has something that carries more weight than perfection: an identity of its own. It’s a game that deserves to be played (and perhaps even replayed), even if it makes you raise an eyebrow every now and then. A gem with character, with rough edges... but a gem nonetheless. »

« Best one of the two. Mechanics, story, the noiristic feel, and the protagonist are all top notch. »

« A good sequel in most regards. As far as gameplay is concerned it's superior in every way. But Dishonored was never just about it. The story, world building, atmosphere, characters, they were just as important and are sadly significantly worse in this one (it's straight way down from the original really). I especially hate what they do with Outsider. He starts out as unknowable, detached, berly interested in mortal affairs. Very powerful and interferring just because of boredom. Meanwhile here he is being judgy about morality and giving you time reversing powers. Makes no sense at all. »

« The Dishonored series combines two elements I absolutely love: stealth and magic. It’s a rare blend that’s hard to find in other games, and it’s amazing how the developers took these elements to their peak in the second installment, improving on the first game in every way. The addition of two playable characters, expanded unique powers for each, and the dual chaos system (low chaos vs. high chaos) significantly boost the game’s replayability. But what truly sets Dishonored 2 apart is its creative level design. Especially the mission “A Crack in the Slab,” which shines like a diamond in the game. It’s a rare kind of level in video games, brilliantly implementing time travel mechanics. In the end, this is a phenomenal game that should not be missed. The fact that it didn’t achieve commercial success is deeply disappointing to me, because I genuinely hoped to see a sequel—which now seems uncertain. »

« Played a lot of this game and never have I ever lasted longer than I have before and it’s good even though you have to go through many deaths to perfect the whole game I think the whole aspect of the game is perfect and amazing recommend if anyone is new to the series and is a fan of stealth and action games »

« Preferred to the first game, just much more polished and cleaner. Must be the greatest game tackling morality, which comes from your own personal play style. Shaping the world and characters in a very realistic way. Ultimately rewarding playing low chaos and annoyingly truthful in the consequences to high chaos.A great series so far. »
