Harvey Smith, known for his past work on the Deus Ex franchise as well as Thief: Deadly Shadows, and Raf Colantonio, who worked on Arx Fatalis and Dark Messiah of Might and Magic, are the lead designers on the game.

Interesting. I'm getting a little disconnect between the advanced technology and still using swords and bows.

Timber · « **Reply #4 on:** April 17, 2012, 12:39:33 PM »

I'm very excited for this even though I'm not a big fan of the Arkane's past output and no one has attempted to make a game as expansive as this in many years.

Timber · « **Reply #5 on:** April 17, 2012, 12:40:24 PM »

Wait no, there was EYE Divine Cybermancy. Welp.

LMFAO at the guy in the exposed tall armour shooting arrows, wtf on many levels.

Looks like Assassins Creed and Crysis had a manbaby

cool breeze · « **Reply #7 on:** April 17, 2012, 02:21:10 PM »

This is one of the few games I'm excited for. From what I've read it's a Deus Ex style game. The powers and acrobatics support your chosen play style (for me, exploring and sneaking).

You should probably temper your expectations with the reality that Harvey Smith was the lead designer on DX: Invisible War.

glad they cancelled prey 2 for this pos

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #14 on:** April 17, 2012, 08:17:19 PM »

i don't think prey 2's alleged cancellation has anything to do with this game coming out

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #15 on:** April 17, 2012, 08:19:17 PM »

prey 2 is 100% cancelled i can tell uthat

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #16 on:** April 17, 2012, 08:22:23 PM »

not because of this, this game was announced months ago

MyNameIsMethodis · « **Reply #17 on:** April 17, 2012, 08:23:45 PM »

i meant prey 2 alone is 100% cancelled.

I like the cartoony art design. Makes it stick out from generic FPS #25311

this game is gonna own

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #30 on:** June 01, 2012, 11:15:54 AM »

I'll be there Day 1 if Dishonored has first-person kicking.

The awesome steampunk/Victorian setting is just icing in the cake.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #34 on:** June 01, 2012, 03:30:09 PM »

Probably will end up pretty cool, but I have a feeling it will tank.

choco parfait · « **Reply #35 on:** June 01, 2012, 11:46:10 PM »

Never heard of this game before now, but the trailer invokes thoughts of Bioshock, Half-Life and AC.

Which is to mean it looks totally awesome.

cool breeze · « **Reply #36 on:** June 02, 2012, 12:08:47 AM »

I want to be excited, but Arkane Studios itself has this pedigree:

Arx Fatalis (2002)
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic (2006)
Arx Fatalis: Collector's Edition (2007)
BioShock 2 (2010) - design assistance

The genre of Dishonored -- it just doesn't seem like it's in their oeuvre.

cool breeze · « **Reply #40 on:** June 04, 2012, 10:59:14 PM »

It's confirmed that you can play through the entire game without killing anyone--pure stealth.

Really excited for this one. And it's a 2012 game! that's rare now.

Sound a lot more like Thief than it appeared early on, definitely a game I'm keeping my eye on.

It's out in October, so I should be able to get some hands-on impressions in August at QuakeCon.

cool breeze · « **Reply #46 on:** June 29, 2012, 10:55:07 AM »

It does. I got around to watching the videos this morning. Maybe it's just the E3 build, but I thought it was odd how the MC shoots his gun, cuts up some guards, and no one outside that room notices. In general the stealth doesn't look very demanding. The description of sword combat also sounds simplistic compared to Dark Messiah ("attack, block, or timed block to parry"). Again, could just be this version. Minor quibbles for an otherwise great looking game. I liked the 'pacifist' solution to the mission.

chronovore · « **Reply #47 on:** June 29, 2012, 09:13:31 PM »

I'm excited about no-kill paths as well; they tend to be the more difficult and slower-paced choices, which is how I like to play.

The voice acting seems cheap and melodramatic, but considering the facial animation on the assassination target in the gory playthrough, it may not be out of place.

I really want this to not suck, but I'm still keeping my internal hype generator on low.

Have you ever played Dark Mesiah of Might and Magic? Best first-person kicking simulator ever made.

chronovore · « **Reply #49 on:** June 30, 2012, 02:50:40 AM »

Nope, haven't played it, but I'll believe it if you say so.
