Dishonored (2012)

Hello people.
Been a long time! (Again)

I am happy to have finally graduated from my University and am now looking for a job!

Putting that aside and the Korea Trip photos that I am supposed to upload, let's just say it slipped my mind. Even the souvenirs are not totally given away yet. >.<

Anyway, I completed Dishonored on day 2 when it was released in a day's time.
Dishonored is a first person view action stealth game.
One of my favorite genre.

Here's my brief opinion of Dishonored.

It was interesting but it was toooooooooooooooooooooo short.
Even with the max difficulty the game was too easy due to the fact that our protagonist has been given supernatural ability which includes blinking.
That's right, you can teleport and go bonkers around enemies as long as you have enough blue bar.
At a later part of the story you will encounter enemies that can teleport too but once you have figure our their pattern, it's a win.

Game level design wise the area of activity is not too big and not very small either.
It does offer you several different points of entry but again, it isn't much.
Some roofs does not offer you any access at all as it is blocked off so if you have an idea of going through the highest window on top of the highest building and do some stunts with your niffy powers, it just does not work that way.

Choices do affect slightly on future game play and how people reacts but it also isn't much.
Like I mentioned, the game was too short.
Any choices or Special Action done will be shown after you have completed each level.

The image above is an example of the end level screen.
This is one of my non-lethal play through.
Some Special Actions rewards you instead of affecting the story.

Overall, it was a pleasant experience but not much re-playability unless you are an achievement grinder.

I do enjoy it though =D

Verdict: 7 / 10

On a side note, I enjoy the music too!
