Dishonored 2: 5 Years Later 

*

It breaks my heart that game like Dishonored2 don’t make money. The levels are pure genius.

The first time jump in “a crack in the slab” gave me chills. Going from the dark rundown manor to a vibrant and bright mansion is still one of my favorite things in gaming.

It's good to see D2 get the respect it deserves.

As someone w/ 200+ hours in this game, you showed me many new and creative mechanics I was unaware of like blinding enemies by shooting near their head w/ the pistol

I’m amazed at the amount of replayability in this game I just did 3 playthroughs back to back and each one felt completely different

Dishonored 2 significantly improved literally every aspect from Dishonored 1 and somehow sold less.

I had this exact same feeling when I revisited Prey yesterday. Turns out its also an underrated masterpiece.

My favourite part of dishonored 2 is that you could finally do a no kills run without trying to be stealthy in the slightest, and yet not be forced to avoid combat either. The non lethal mid combat takedowns were a really nice addition.

“Emily is far better voiced”. Don’t you dare do my boy Garret dirty like that.

Level design is a masterpiece. I remember seeing the trailer with Jindosh mansion and I always wanted to be in it. Having it happen in real time is one of my favourite moments.

What I like about Dishonored is that the narrative and game design is generally simplistic, but the gameplay is sophisticated. No two playthroughs are alike. You can be a psychopathic killer, or you can be a pacifistic ghost. And as you mentioned, there are so many fine details to the game that most people do not take the time to notice.

This is a phenomenal video!

I urge people to obtain the artbook of Dishonored 2. That stuff is insane you can tell they spent an insane amount of time on the architecture of the places, making the level design both mechanically good but also feel lush an realistic. That and the art of Piotr Jablonsky (as wells as others), just insane

I love the fact that this game also hides alot of mechanics in it's on stages. In the clockwork mansion stage, if you don't use any lever or alert any guard, the owner isn't alerted of your presence. The same way in the later stage where you can keep going back or forward in time, if you just knock out the owner of the mansion and hide his body, he doesn't become crazy and you just alter the pass itself. This game is a masterpiece

I love this game! Super-immersive gameplay, small levels without minimap Icons, that are fun to navigate. I wish there were more games like this.

This game was phenomenal and definitely underappreciated. The Clockwork Mansion was definitely the most memorable part of the game for me.

One of my favourite games, such a shame it came out in such a broken state.

I saw a video once where one of the developers talked about the development of the game and the concepts behind it... and what they had to cut out due to time/budget reasons.

This is my favorite game of the series. Emily's story arc that sees her going from apathetic ruler to a politically-active empress. The Royal Conservatory that hammers home how brutal the Brigmore Witch coven was, A Crack in the Slab (and the consequences it has series-wide), and just the fact it has New Game+/Mission Select.
