    Very disappointed in this game. i loved the first one. Voice acting is terrible.. Story is weak. Level design is very cramped. The thing I hat the most is that you have to sneak around everywhere you can not just walk around and explore the world. I would save your game after every kill. I do not recommend this game... maybe for $19.99

    So lets start with the biggest headache in the game the graphics with the worlds worst filter ever well i thought i could deal with it then they said hey lets throw in some **** frame rate and the whole game is just poorly

    optimized it's dishonored one game play wise except now you can knock someone out once you get in a sword fight and Emily gets some different powers then Corvo he has pretty much the same powers has dishonored 1 so if you want a new experience then dishonored one you are not going to get it here unless you play as Emily but the combat still same they really didn't build off the first one at all the gadgets you can buy from the merchant are all the same as the first dishonored by the way there is a merchant on every mission you just have to find his shop which is kind of hard sometimes when your head starts to hurt

    there are some side missions in the game that add some content to the game you'll just help some random person you can save a life or you can do them a favor or let them die but not helping at all has no effect on the ending if situation comes up where you can save someone which it will the first i think is on mission 2 so don't feel any obligation but you can get some good rewards if you help someone like the merchant in one the missions he will give you a discount i think but if you play on xbox you'll probably be trying to rush through game as fast as you can i was about 3 hours away from being done and i wanted to quit cause of the head ache it gave me i haven't had a game give me a head ache since time shift and it was to late for a refund cause i bought it digitally and Microsoft will not give a refund past 6 hours

    the story is boring and can't really keep your interest you will find your self pushing through like when your doing yard work well there is differences in some of things the cut scenes will say if you play as Corvo instead of Emily but no major difference you might not even really notice you still have low chaos and high chaos which just means trying not to kill people for low and killing like crazy for high which low will obviously have the best ending well this game was hyped so much and it failed like they always do it's probably like a 7 on pc cause they patched the graphics issues and the ps4 had crashing issues but still looks better from what I've heard slash seen but its still like a 6 or a 5

    i feel like they really don't care about this game at all and i can't understand how this made it to the new gen like this i really think the 360 could run it i hate this game so much and will never buy another

    I cannot recall such a blurry game on Xbox One. Although gameplay and design appear nice, it looks like a previous generation game. I am unable to enjoy it -- too distracted by the blurriness. YouTube videos indicate it looks much better on PS4.

    I've used this site for years but never bothered to register an account or voice myself untill now. I LOVED the first dishonered, the story, the gameplay and the graphics (at the time) we fantastic. On hearing about dishonerd 2 i preordered and paid in full as soon as it was possable to do so, then i played the game -_- I am about 3 hours in and so far story wise its fantastic but i cantI've used this site for years but never bothered to register an account or voice myself untill now.

On hearing about dishonerd 2 i preordered and paid in full as soon as it was possable to do so, then i played the game -_- I am about 3 hours in and so far story wise its fantastic but i cant play anymore the graphics for a next gen console are horrific! It looks like dishonered one looks playing on backwards compat, the draw distance is shocking, and game mechanics wise it stutters and stumles everywere due to framrate instability. If i could be bothered i would write to the developers and microsoft for a refund as i wont be playing it anymore......This game could of been fantastic and from all account on the ps4 pro and pc it is as it runs properly. Not happy at all, and feel with 4 stars im being generous. Expand

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

    It's a stealth game. There's no mention in the games description that it's a stealth game. I hate stealth games.

    Dishonored 2 is a great game for those who never played the first game and for returning gamers who enjoyed Dishonored. Its challenging gameplay, collectibles and the ability to experience the game’s story from two different points of view are more than enough to keep you interested.

    Dishonored 2's world is big and very detailed with multiple paths and ways to go about it. There are many secrets to discover and puzzles to solve. If you are a fan of the original, then this is the perfect sequel. A great game with the right amount of new techniques and ideas to provide new gamers and fans of the original with a great experience.

    A game with a beautiful world, meticulously crafted missions, and superb stealth. [Jan 2017, p.77]
