“The sequel makes everything bigger and better, and is one of the best stealth and moral decision making games I played. I played the game as Emily, as it made the most sense for me: grown up in the protecting arms of…”
“I've beaten this game 3 times on console and bought it here just to play it again. Best stealth game ever made. This game is by far the cat's meow.”
“If you're OCD about not killing anyone or getting spotted in games like this, read on--- The game has a retarded glitch for the “clean hands” run getting no kills and not being spotted. I wondered why I always stopped…”

“There may never be a Half-Life 3, and perhaps not even a Dishonored 3. Yet both series share something special: their sequels managed to live up to their legacy. The story unfolds slowly, but the real reason you’re here…”
“Very immersive story. It is just that the concept of starting a new mission seems to be redundant or with similar design. Some variety would be good, like you everytime see / enter city gates, electrified city…”

“This franchise is underrated imo. This entry oozes atmosphere, and excellent level design. You can just see the art pouring from the screen with this game. The story is nicely done, and it allows you to alter it with…”
“For all the QoL changes, the game runs like ♥♥♥♥, the first game runs way better. For context, maxxed out graphics can go 120 for a few seconds then as low as 60 and under, jesus man. Even lowering the video settings…”

“Dishonored 2 improves on almost everything from the first game. The movement feels smoother, the powers are more fun to experiment with, and the level design is honestly some of the best I’ve seen in a stealth game. I…”
“Time goes by, this is still one of the greatest game ever made. Doing it on PC after 10+ runs done on console.”

“Delilah is one of the most underrated and most interesting villains in gaming, though I think the first game does do a better job at showing it even if she isn't the focus. Gameplay wise it blows the first out of the…”
“Amazing sequel to an amazing game. The game feels a lot smoother and the cinematic kills especially stand out. The assassinations remain in depth and varied just as before.”

“If you have any type of AMD hardware, you will need to update files from github because an outdated dll file will not allow the game to launch. On top of that the games borderless / windowed mode are not coded correctly…”

“It's jus kinda borin' and tedious.”
“Good game, I think the chaos system is too harsh and they initially frame it in a way that you can kill or knock enemies unconscious (choose your playstyle) but they don't really hint that it will change the game and…”

“I have mixed feelings on this game, while I am glad it continued I didnt like the story as much as the original and the way the story is told felt very railroady. The first game gave you time to breath between missons…”
“Amazing gameplay, story could have used around 3 more chapters, maybe more. Would recommend”
“This game is good but it's story is a lot weaker than the first. Gameplay wise it's pretty much as good as the first if not better in some areas.”

“Worst optimalization I had ever witnessed in any game. 180fps goes almost under 60 and back up while the framerate doesn´t respond at all to the shown number (meaning if you have 180 fps it feels more like 70 and if you…”

“Dear Nostalgists, Please stop saying that this game is in any way worse than its predecessor or that there is no reason for it to exist. Dishonored 2 improves upon the entirety of the gameplay in every way imaginable. The level design, the fact that there are two playable…”
