    Arkane made a mistake of cutting Daud’s story into two separate DLCs because all the good stuff is in the second part.

    The Brigmore Witches ignores the tension and build-up that its predecessor established, both narratively and mechanically. Instead of continuing from where Knife left off tonally, Brigmore starts a few feet back and to the left, and it suffers until it manages to find design ideas to call its own.

    Just finished that DLC. It took me 6 hours to beat it on Elite with a Ghost achievement. I mention this just to give you an example of howJust finished that DLC. It took me 6 hours to beat it on Elite with a Ghost achievement. I mention this just to give you an example of how long this DLC might last if you play completely stealthy and without killings. Now, a few words about the DLC itself. As you probably know, "The Brigmore Witches" continues the story of assassin Daud, killer of the Empress and Corvo's rival. His skills are basically the same and I didn't notice and major changes from the first DLC, "The Knife of Dunwall" in terms of atmosphere game mechanics. However, that does not make this DLC less fun it contains great story, dark and brutal cutscenes (which perfectly blend into the script), decent-looking environments and very satisfying overall experience. I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoyed original Dishonored and "The Knife of Dunwall".… Full Review »

    I rarely will ever give a 10 much less to a DLC. That 10 comes with a caveat if you have not played or did not enjoy The Knife of Dunwall,I rarely will ever give a 10 much less to a DLC. That 10 comes with a caveat if you have not played or did not enjoy The Knife of Dunwall, or you did not think highly of Dishonored period, please avoid this as it is much more of the same, which to me is fantastic. While the game play stays the same, the story is really well told. The dialogue is very well done and really well delivered. The sound is great, the graphics are top notch and the game play continues to be rewarding and addictive. With Knife I got around 5 to 6 hours of game play and Witches gave me an additional 8 hours for a total of 40 hours for the full game and DLC for a single play through. Considering I got the game on sale for $20 and spent $20 on the DLCs, a dollar an hour for extremely enjoyable entertainment is very worth it.… Full Review »
