Dishonored 2 - Reviews
Here are some reviews for Dishonored 2:
The good
- Absolutely nails stealth mechanics
- Wide range of powers and weapons that play off one another
- Smart level design
- Gorgeous visuals
- Loads of replay value
The bad
- Tired story
- PC version suffers performance problems
The ugly
- Having to go back to the beginning of a level because you forgot to save
Verdict: Dishonored 2 is one of the smartest, most well-designed games released this year. If you fancy a challenge, this one is a no-brainer.
Arkane manages to better the already exceptional Dishonored in nearly every way, creating a masterpiece of open-ended design.
So: Dishonored 2 is a fantastic game. It may, in fact, be the best game you really shouldn’t risk buying right now, because right now it’s a technical mess. Yes, I hope a patch comes out soon which fixes a lot of these issues – but yes, I’m also worried that a lot of this is baked into the new Void Engine, and if that’s the case… well, this might be something to look into in a year or two. I’ll keep you updated, but for now, a definite “buyer beware” on an otherwise phenomenal game.
