Flawless Masterpiece Over the years, we have seen many iconic examples of the stealth and immersive sim genres; however, Dishonored demonstrates what makes it different right from the very first mission through its level design and the freedom it gives us. Standing out since its release, Dishonored offers a timeless design that creates a massive playground rather than simply presenting a series of levels. With its unique world, gameplay depth, and a design that fully respects our choices, Dishonored stands as one of the finest examples of its genre. Story - A Classic Revenge Journey That Reaches a Surprising Peak The details mentioned below cover the first few minutes of the game. It contains minor spoilers for those who have never played it; those who don't want any spoilers can skip this section. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3770471408 The story of the game seems a bit simple and clichéd at first. The assassination of the Empress, whom we are sworn to protect, and the conspiracy that frames us for her murder may not seem like the most original setup at first. Proving our innocence and seeking revenge is a theme handled many times in the gaming world. What truly sets it apart is the way Dishonored seamlessly blends its narrative with gameplay and the world around it. What begins as a straightforward revenge story gradually evolves into something far more compelling. I won't go into details to avoid major spoilers, but I can easily say that the game's narrative structure and its journey toward the ending are highly satisfying. One of the most important aspects is that the gameplay directly affects the story. Characters have their own requests, and we are given complete freedom in how we handle them. Usually, we make choices in such games, but we rarely see them truly matter. The more we explore, listen to conversations, and uncover clues, the more we understand the characters and the mysteries surrounding the story. World and Atmosphere - Plague, Whale Oil, and the Industrial Revolution Whale oil-powered inventions, aggressive rats roaming the streets, and a devastating plague make Dunwall far from an ordinary Victorian city. It is a society slowly falling apart. The gloomy atmosphere of the city, combined with its unique architecture, creates a magnificent world. Thanks to the audio logs we listen to, the letters we find, and the clues we uncover, we feel that Dunwall is not just a backdrop, but a living, breathing city. Gameplay: A Depth That Redefines the Stealth-Action Genre When discussing stealth-action games, franchises like Assassin's Creed and Hitman often come to mind. However, while those titles often rely on action-heavy gameplay or familiar stealth mechanics, Dishonored strikes a brilliant balance between stealth, creativity, and freedom of choice. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3770476015 After experiencing the mechanical depth offered by Dishonored, it is hard not to question the simplicity of other games in the genre. Is an assassin game simply about flashy combat and cinematic action sequences, or is it about giving players full agency over how a mission unfolds? Dishonored chooses the latter. Whether you run through the map causing violent chaos with swords and explosives, or move like a ghost without shedding a single drop of blood, the choice is entirely ours. Dishonored doesn't restrict your playstyle; instead, it creates a world that reacts to your actions, shaping the story, the environment, and the ending based on the consequences of your choices. Mechanics and Abilities: Supernatural Powers The magic powers possessed by Corvo Attano take the action and stealth variety in the game to a whole new level: [*] Blink (Teleportation): Allows us to move without leaving a trace by teleporting to rooftops, behind enemies, or into narrow vents within seconds. [*] Possession: You can seamlessly pass through enemy checkpoints by possessing rats, fish, or other creatures; later in the game, you can even control humans. [*] Devouring Swarm: You can distract enemies or eliminate them entirely by summoning a ruthless swarm of rats from the ground. [*] Dark Vision / Bend Time: Mechanics like seeing behind walls or stopping time to catch bullets in mid-air dramatically increase your ability to analyze the environment and plan your approach. When all these abilities come together, they create a brilliant gameplay system that rewards creativity. Level Design: A World That Lets You Choose Your Own Path Dishonored sets the gold standard for immersive level design. The game never tells us, "Go through that door, press that button." It gives us the objective, defines the boundaries of the world, and leaves the rest entirely up to our creativity. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3770477828 Apart from the obvious progression routes, there are dozens of hidden entry options across the map. For example, even if the game marks the East and West gates in an area, with a bit of exploration you can discover an open rooftop window, sewer pipes, or a hidden passage through an alleyway. Not only that, but you can also communicate with characters on the map and cooperate with them by fulfilling their small requests to reach your goal. The dialogue between characters isn't just placed there to fill space; listening to all of it can grant you a code, a hidden key, or an alternate route to use during your mission. As I mentioned above, the most critical point is the Chaos System: saving civilians, remaining in the shadows, or slaughtering civilians to create chaos directly alters the ending of the game and the future of the city. Graphics and Audio: A Unique Visual Identity The visual language of the game is not built on photo-realism. It features a unique drawing style and visual approach that stylizes the Victorian era, resembling a living oil painting. Although this artistic choice might initially make some players seeking strict realism keep their distance, it is a fantastic design decision that helps the game age remarkably well even years later. Sound design and music are the biggest elements completing the atmosphere. The footsteps of enemies, mechanical noises, whispers, and gloomy background melodies keep the tension and excitement at a peak with every step you take in Dunwall's dangerous streets. Final Dishonored is one of the most successful examples of its genre, thanks to its level design, player freedom, unforgettable atmosphere, and mechanical depth. It is a true masterpiece that transforms a seemingly simple revenge story into a deeply personal experience shaped by our choices.

Probably the best game ever made. Of all time. Or at least in the top 10000s. Probably. Dishonored is a game where you play the game using controller, or perhaps a keyboard. You play as Corvo, royal protector guy turned assassin after the assassination of the empress (which you, Corvo, has been framed for). There is also a plauge going on. Forces unknown that become known takes notice of Corvo's predicament, and gifts him with dark powers that lets him teleport, stop time, and aim bot. Among other things. Corvo then goes on a revenge quest to take revenge. Shocking, I know. Gameplay is pretty boss, you have a sword for stabbing and a left hand to do literally everything else with. Along with the previously mentioned powers, you also have some nifty tools, like a gun. Anyway, let's move on from this section. Let's talk story. It is very mid. That's it, really. It does its' job of providing motivation for Corvo to do stuff, but it ain't some masterfully spun web of intrigue and mystery. But I digest. The world is the real highlight, the locations you explore during missions are well made and also inform you(the player) of the state the world is in. You can also find books and notes that expands upon the lore and whatnot. But let's talk about the most controversial thing in the game: the chaos system. Basically, if you kill people the city becomes worse, because the rats have more to eat so there's more rats, and guards are pulled from other parts of the city to defend the people you are trying to kill. So basically more rats, plauge victims and more gaurds. The game tries to tell you that your actions have consequences, and that you should not kill everyone. The game also only gives you two(2) non-lethal options for taking down foes. You can shoot the with a sleep dart(which you only have ten of) or you can choke them. However, if you want to kill stuff, you have crossbow, gun, grenade, sword, mine that launches razor wire, rat swarms that you can summon, and not that much more(but still more). So the game essentially says "don't kill people because bad anyway here is your new gadget that exploderizes people". The ending is also affected by the chaos system, low chaos good high caos bad. But both endings are fairly bland, and only have different dialouge and endings slides, but essentially the same outcome. Except the third, secret ending, which is much like the other two but is explicitly the bad ending. And also some things you do influence the ending slides. Anyways, enough of this nonsense. Because really, I haven't actually said anything of substance. Dishonored is an action stealth game and I think it is very fun. It is also very cheap, especially during sales. If you read all this, I love you. <3
Back in the early 2010s when Dishonored first came out I didn't get the chance to experience it only heard from other people how it is a must play. Fast forward to 2026 and I finally got the chance to play the game myself. Initially I wasn't that impressed because the events progressed so quickly, I won't spoil the game but lets just say things went south really fast. I thought it would be just an average experience but boy was I wrong. Turns out that was just the setup and you're only getting started. You play the role of Corvo Attano the Royal Protector to Empress Kaldwin, but that doesn't last long and you are framed for a crime you didn't commit BUT the game isn't about just you, you fight for a cause greater than yourself and the way you play the game DOES AFFECT the ending (Same as Bioshock). Since I mentioned Bioshock in the previous paragraph I would also like to add there are A LOT OF SIMILARITIES between the two, you can tell that Arkane devs are fond of Bioshock games and took inspiration from it when developing dishonored, upgrades, unique abilities, weapons, and even supernatural powers. The gameplay department isn't lacking at all. Then comes the music there isn't a lot of music in the game but there is a lot of work done when it comes to ambience you actually feel like you're in the world of dishonored and not just playing a game, kind of reminds of the soundscapes of City 17 in Half-Life 2 and White Forest in Half-Life 2: Episode 2. Although I should have included this with the gameplay section but I must add that Dishonored allows you to play any way you like, Don't want to make a lot of noise? Go for stealth in fact stealth is encouraged. Don't want to wait around and cause a lot of chaos? you can go scorched earth too. Basically there are no limits as to how you want to play but killing a lot of people affects the ending so be careful. Lastly the story and characters, While not at the same level as Bioshock but Arkane did a good job giving their characters depth and wrote a good story around it too. The world of Dishonored feels alien and surreal just like Bioshock games and yet at the same time it feels like a parallel and believable reality that advanced in a different direction. Now with all that out of the way are there any issues with the game? None that I encountered, no bugs or crashes for me throughout the game. So do I recommend this or not? Obviously I do 9/10, not perfect but so damn close
This is definitely a game made in 2012 because the option to Watergate-style Blackmail a politician with secret tapes confessing to actively attempt mass deaths of "poor, sick, and the lessers of society" will lead to said politician being executed (coincidentally the non-lethal option). Imagine the paradise we could be living in if we held ourselves to the same standard.
