    The unique game experience. You have freedom of choice, special skills to help you play as you see it convenient. Nice morality system, not forcing to be good or evil. Interesting plot, diversified missions, charismatic main character, not bad voice acting. Difficulty level is just fine, you won't be bored with this game. Pleasant fight, exploration, intuitive control over character. NiceThe unique game experience. You have freedom of choice, special skills to help you play as you see it convenient.

Nice system of character development, including skills, equipment, runes and improvements.

    For minuses I should point medium-quality graphics and music, and irritating ghost system (not possible to tell if you were seen till the end of the mission).    … Expand

    I hadn't played it on the last generation but the game is immensely fun to troll the brain dead AI of the enemies and the god-like powers. I haven't played the dlc but I experienced choppy frames and stutters one the Xbox one s.

    Pros: -Gameplay is absolutely fantastic.

    -Combat is done very well
    -All the DLC comes with it
    -Sound design is good

    Cons:
    -Graphics disappoint me. They aren't bad but for so called 'next gen' they aren't up the standard they should be
    -No new game plus! Meaning you can't start over with all your powers for a second playthrough :(
    -There isn't really any incentive for people who already played the game to get this as it doesn't add many new things

    I’m blown away by how good Dishonored was, it is truly a remarkable game. Its story isn’t exceptional, but it does well to serve this stealth masterpiece.

    It's fine. Gets way more love than it deserves, imo, but still. Nothing about this game is exceptional, but it's worth a playthrough. The game giving you tons of ways to approach missions is noticeable and definitely appreciated.

    Игра хороша во всех аспектах. Прям больших минусов я не нашёл. Но я не любитель таких мрачных стэлс игр.

    Never played it on 360 but overall i felt quite let down, it was no where near as good as people made it out to be, a good game nonetheless but not magnificent and i was expecting a better effort with the graphics in comparison to last gen.

    Dishonored is an excellent game but this version is just pointless. In a few months with the xbox backwards compatibility you can get the 360 version for a fraction of the price.

    Played Dishonoured through (twice) on the PS3 and it remains one of may all time favourite games, so I was unsure about buying the 'Bone 'ultimate' version - but I saw the digital version for £15 on the x'Bone store and I had a few games to trade so I did.

    Graphically it looks a bit sharper and feels a bit smoother than it did on the PS3 - but the cell shaded slightly cartoonish graphics limit the improvement.

    I don't regret buying it, but I am getting sick of being sold 'remastered' versions of games I've already bought and played. even if they are 'the classics'. Its almost enough to make me go back to being a PC gamer to get the 'remastered' version from day one.    … Expand

    I loved Dishonored on 360 but this port is bad. The core game is fine. Trials are stupid so didn't bother with them. Brigmore Witches DLC is bug ridden.

    1) Crashes to desktop at least once a session. 2) If you stand still then, after a few seconds, Daud starts moving anyway. This makes standing on thin stuff like walls and rafters nearly impossible. I believe this was an issue on 360    I loved Dishonored on 360 but this port is bad. The core game is fine.

    3) Corrupted saves - this is the worst part. On the last mission the saves keep getting corrupted. Auto save or manual doesn't matter. I was toward the end of the level and reloaded the save. Crashed to desktop. Tried again and same thing. I had to go back to the previous auto-save. After the auto-save loaded I saved in a new slot. A little while later I saved again. Then I had to reload and both saves are corrupted. Any game that corrupts saves is bad. It doesn't matter how the rest of the game was, I'm within 15 mins of completing the DLC and I potentially have to start over. Bad, bad, bad.    … Expand

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

    Great, but too easy.

    Pros:
    - Great level design
    - Amazing DLC
    - Bringing stealth gameplay from the thief series back to life
    - Blink is amazing

    Cons:
    - You are way too overpowered (detective vision shouldn't be a part of this game)
    - Way too handholdy tutorial
    - Stealth is very nerved compared to Thief 1-3
    - It's too easy to get the best ending

    Dishonored: Definitive Edition is a fun, but flawed, experience. It’s a lot of fun to play, but the gameplay has not aged that well. The graphics also do not look great. The load times, finally, are horrible.

    it was pretty good. Nothing special. Just an interesting adventure, marred with occasional frustration, a stealth system that I did not like and a storyline and characters that seemed all a bit random? Also, the chaos system was just silly. Highlights were the setting and atmosphere. The worst parts were the cliche story and characters.

    A very good title that offers a completely different experience and can even be fun at the beginning of the game, but unfortunately it becomes more and more boring the further you go.

    It's clearly a rushed job, that is in many ways inferior to the PC version and it's locked on 30 frames per second. Still, it contains a great stealth-action game with all the DLC, and the technical problems are mostly negligible. If you never played the original this is still a pretty good deal.

    Fans of the series won't gain much from this iteration, but for those who haven't played Dishonored before, the Definitive Edition is a great game that's worth checking out.
