    Own it, love it. I actually mainly wanted to write this review to comment on the obviously bogus amount of negative User Ratings. The other versions of this game only have between 200-300 total ratings, and even a controversial game like Mass Effect 3 only has 2900 or so total ratings after 7 months. Obviously, some shenanigans are afoot. This proves my point: User Ratings are useless

    creepy setting, stealth is a challenge or you can just hack and slash everyone. I have fun memories of this game. After I beat it I would just go through the levels again messing around seeing what I can do. The combat is fun and the skills are fun. Blinking to areas to hide is a cool feature. Love the powers. Good game. Never tried part 2 cause tbh I don't really care enough.

    This is by far the greatest Arkane game ever made in my opinion. Excellent graphics, story, combat, and outcome driven by the player's choices. A true masterpiece!

    I have played Dishonored ever since the Xbox360 was out. It is and will always be my favorite game. Dishonored 2 is very well done and has great details. In conclusion Dishonored 1 and 2 and all the other Dishonored games are very well done and I recommend getting the game/games. BUT if you are a picky person and hate glitches from time to time and will throw a fit about it then don't get the game

    A great representative of the immersive-sim genre, featuring quite an original world that was brought to life with the help of HL2's art director Victor Antonov.
    A lovely addition to the collection and pretty much a must buy for the fans of the genre.

    Dishonored is an interesting mix of games in terms of style, Bioshock and Half life (with a little imagination and The elders scroll). Everyone recommended this game to me with the words that it will be a unique experience. Unfortunately, I probably had high expectations for this game, because after finishing it, I don't feel that this game is anything special.

    It's definitely one of the better stealth games, unfortunately the overall story, which is predictable from start to finish, didn't pull me into the game in any extra way. You can also go through the game in such a way that you just make your way from point A to point B. And I must honestly say, if the story didn't interest you in any way and you just want to add the game to the list of games played, do so because it will save you a lot. time.

    Of the special abilities, I only used Blink and Rat summoning spell. The game doesn't even force you to acquire other skills.

    At the end of this game I give a score of 7/10, it's not a bad game and I understand people who are excited about it. Unfortunately, it did not fascinate me, so I have to give a yellow rating.    … Expand

    The game is a beautiful piece of art. It is a very good game, with a really good and funny mechanics. The problem here is the excessive amount of wale bones, and the very bad control of the PS3. You can play this game some many times than you want, and you are going to discover new ways to kill your enemies. No doubt about it, this is one of the best games that "Arkane Studio" do.

    Played it on the PS4's definitive edition. Only introduced to the Dishonored series recently and this first installment did feel like a Bethesda game. Didn't blow my mind but was interesting enough to keep me pressing forward. 7 / 10

    Absolutely brilliant.The Story is interesting,even it has its drawback sometimes.Graphics are great for the art direction the developers went for.Sound effect and music are making the atmosphere very mysterious and when enemy attack you,its getting very scary.Overall it is a great game and its a must play for me.

    Dishonored doesn't have a narrative to write home about, nor does it reinvent the wheel in terms of gameplay. Instead it presents the player with a myriad of choices of how to approach each level. How much one gets out of it is based on how much one is willing to experiment on each level. Nothing pathbreaking unfortunately.

    A decent game and worth everyone checking it out. But beware that despite how much praise this game gets it's seriously flawed in a few ways and won't be universally accepted. Its ingenuity and presentation make a great impression, but its mission design and a few persistent bugs make for as many exciting and thrilling moments as frustrating and disappointing ones.

    The problem with Dishonored is that it's trying to have its open world cake and eat it too by having a segregated level structure. So while you have a degree of freedom in tactics (due to an impressive list of skills) your overall strategy is actually more limited than it seems. Despite looking forward to unlocking all the skills early in the game, by the end I was only using the few that I found useful.

    This game has a lot of good ideas but they don't all come together. I think the fact that they had to break up each level into a few sectors held them back, as it seems here are some bottlenecks where the game design hitches a bit.    … Expand

    Bethesda has gotten us used to amazing open worlds throughout the years and despite Dishonored not being an open world game, it definitely feels at home. One of the best single player games from the last generation.

    Steampunk setting and supernatural assassins? I'm in. Great story and art in general. I played this game entirely in stealth mode, but you also have the option to murder everyone, which is nice. The game also features two different endings depending on your approach. Personally I found that the gameplay really excels with stealth, as the combat mechanics generally feel clunky.

    I played this game on PC, when it was released and yesterday i finished it on PS4. I cannot evaluate graphic, because it is older game and it is not comparable with new ones, but it is still enjoyable game. Perfect story and you can choose your playstyle what suits you best without missing something. Stealth or kind of "doom 2" style :)

    Well, Arkane, you did what so few games have done this generation: you got me to want to come back to play Dishonored annually. Very, very few games have that honor, but I just can't imagine ever getting tried of Dunwall. What a wonderful game.

    You can combine Corvos weapons and superpowers in an almost infinite of ways, which can result in some pretty satisfying outcomes. Throw a proximity mine, called a spring razor, on a rat. Then take possession of the rat and walk up to the nearest guard. Then watch the limbs fly. [November 2012, p.66]

    It is a major accomplishment and for all its ambition it succeeds where it counts, by transporting you to a world and empowering you to do with it you wish, creating unscripted and unexpected moments that feel unique to you. It is at these times that it becomes more than just an enjoyable stealth action game, but something truly special.
