    Expertly created environments, a new fantastic set of powers, rich NPC dialogue, and memorable villains; Dishonored 2 takes what made the first game fun and improves on it in every way. You can sneak through and take hours on one level, finding every hidden nook and cranny. Or shoot, snipe, and dismember your way through, leaving a pile of bodies in your path. The choice is yours.

    This is one of the best games i played this year. If you liked the first game, you gotta play this one. Fluid and fun gameplay, excellent story, compelling characters.

    Dishonored 2 is just as good, if not better, than the first game. Level design is more complex and interesting, story missions are longer and more involved, the environments are dripping with atmosphere, and the gameplay -- some input lag aside -- is pitch perfect.

    This is the best pure stealth game this generation.

    Un mundo genial, niveles perfectamente desarrollados y ricos en detalles y dos personajes con estilos de juego muy diferente gracias a sus habilidades nos regalan no solo uno de los mejores juegos de sigilo que existen actualmente, sino el que, en nuestra modesta opinión, es el juego del año 2016 (a pesar de que quede un mes para que acabe, ya lo tenemos claro).

    Una maravilla jugable

    Una maravilla jugable que no ofrece ninguna limitación al jugador, le da la mano para que haga frente a las situaciones de la manera que mejor crea conveniente en uno de los mundos mas ricos y originales que hemos visto en tiempos recientes. Como decíamos en el análisis de Danganronpa 2, no sólo es un título desarrollado con inteligencia, sino que demanda inteligencia por parte del jugador.

    En resumidas cuentas: el mejor juego del año.

    I give it a 10, because of tight controls, gorgeous designs, incredibly immersive soudtrack (You gotta play with headphones) and the multiple possibilities.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I loved the original game, and while i was skeptical I'd get the same experience a second time around, I am very, very pleased. I chose to play as Emily and they really nailed the feeling of being "Dishonored" once more. I feel the actual vengeance in my heart, and a real desire to destroy Delilah. Gameplay has been improved, and Emily's powers are just different enough from Corvo without being too different. The first area without any powers was rough going, but once I got Far Reach (Blink equivalent) and Dark Vision I was having a blast again. Highly recommended Expand

    The game was great people complaining about the game not going to 60fps. TBH i bet their pc,s cant even reach 60 anyways. The new powers from Emily are an amazing addition. Even though corvo was in the last game with the voice actors and new upgrade trees it definitely freshens him up. The missions are masterful. They are so dense and vibrant. The game is pretty much open world. The artThe game was great people complaining about the game not going to 60fps. TBH i bet their pc,s cant even reach 60 anyways.

    I wasn't a big fan of the original Dishonored, but I was quite surprised with how Dishonored 2 turned out. It looks great, plays like a dream, has some great story sequences and has some of the most satisfying stealth action I've played in quite a while. I'm still not a fan of looking for Ruins to upgrade your abilities and I do with there was some sort of mini-map to help you travel andI wasn't a big fan of the original Dishonored, but I was quite surprised with how Dishonored 2 turned out.

I can't wait to start my next playthough as Corvo. Expand

    It really pains me to give this game such a low score! I wanted to love it, I really did. They really changed wayyyy too many things to give this game a 8 or 10. First the game lacks a significant amount of enemies, I've been going around killing every gurard and I'm finishing levels with like 30 or 40 kills. In the first game I remember having 100 kills at some point. Another huge flaw isIt really pains me to give this game such a low score! I wanted to love it, I really did.

In the first game I remember having 100 kills at some point. Another huge flaw is they turners half of the game into a puzzle game. Wether it's a perfectly hidden tune that you have to perform a mechanic you haven't learned yet to get or it's simply to progress to the next area. The places where this is most apparent is right from the beginning and in the dust area where 3 out of the 8 bone charms are too hard to get or when you get a device shortly after that sends you back in time and you have to use that to maneuver yourself between past and present to get past barriers. I gave this a 4 and not a 1 because the story tellikgnand the fighting mechanics are on point. I just feel the game is a bit falsely advertised. Expand

    A Evolução Em Comparação Ao Dishonored 1 É Muito Clara, A Jogabilidade Em Geral É Ótima!
    Emily É Uma Personagem Tão Carismática Quanto o Corvo. Um Ponto Muito Positivo Foi A Opção De Jogarmos Com Corvo ou Emily, Dois Protagonistas Fantásticos! O Jogo Não Possui Bugs Que Atrapalhem A Gameplay Do Jogador Em Nenhum Momento, Tudo Funciona Muito Bem...

    O Jogo Não Possui Bugs Que Atrapalhem A Gameplay Do Jogador Em Nenhum Momento, Tudo Funciona Muito Bem... Isso Demonstra Uma Evolução Enorme Em Relação A Dishonored 1.
    Graficamente Falando, O Jogo Deu Um Salto Fantástico; Semelhando Ao Que Aconteceu Com BioShock Infinite Em Relação Ao BioShock 2.
    Resumindo... O Jogo Melhora Em Tudo Com Relação Ao Primeiro Game e Ainda Inova Com Dois Personagens Carismáticos!

    Awful childlike story. Horrible AI. Bad graphics. Horrible performance even in consoles and animations. Dishonored the dishonored 1. What an irony....

    As a story, it may well be lacking, but as a collection of expertly crafted play spaces where design and mechanics reinforce and respond to your agency in myriad delightful and engaging ways, Dishonored 2 is pure magic.

    While patrolling that retail space, you’d be mad to ignore this as it lurks in the corner. It’s every inch a killer game, and worthy of Lasting Possession. [January 2016, p68]

    Despite a handful of minor issues, then, and occasionally patchy framerates in particularly busy areas, Dishonored 2 is consistently remarkable. [Jan 2017, p.102]
