And they're not quite as replayable for me as the levels in, say, Hitman. I snuck through each level and went for low-chaos my first run, and even then when I got to the last level I was saying "that's it?".

Argh I will probably just get this game and again put off dealing with my monstrous backlog.

MMF Freeway posted:I found it very re-playable as well, but definitely do agree that the dlc was a welcome addition to the length. IIRC it got some early flak for being short because someone blasted through it in a few hours right before release which I thought was incredibly stupid. Yup. There was a bunch of drama because someone blinked their way through it in 3 hours which apparently meant the game was objectively 3 hours long and therefore a ripoff according to the internet. It was really stupid.

60 Gigs? Welp, see you all in December when my Australian internet finishes downloading this. I don't buy all too many modern PC games, is this likely another Titanfall thing where all of the assets are completely uncompressed or is this just the standard size of AAA games now?

That's max required disk space, which is going to be substantially bigger than the download itself

DoctorStrangelove posted:The engine is idTech5, basically what The New Order was running on. They've probably made some small updates but the performance should be comparable to TNO. Unless someone hosed up somewhere. I hope so. Already was disappointed this year with how lovely DX:MD seemed to run on PS4 at various junctures. I'd be crushed if this ran like poo poo on consoles.

I ordered through Cdkeys after I had a good experience buying through them for DXMD. Do you suppose I'll still get the game on the 10th or will there be some kind of delay? I haven't seen anything do a day early bonus before.

There's a pretty flaccid ama with Harvey Smith over on Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/dishonored/comments/5ax8f1/hello_im_harvey_smith_dishonored_2_ama/ Mostly inane questions, but one or two good answers.

So the system specs are out, anyone able to hazard a guess as to how conservative they're being? Like, in the past few years I've learned that both the recommended and minimum specs can vary wildly in how accurate they are. I've had games that I was apparently well below the recommended specs run perfectly on ultra at 60 fps and then I've had stuff like Just Cause 3 just run like poo poo on low even though I was way above the minimum, suppose it's all down to the optimisation and no one will know until release now (unless a youtube superstar has spilled everything already). Just really hoping my PC can run it at some reasonable level, my PS4 is full of games I'm actually playing right now and I don't really want to delete any of them to make space for this. Also, those questions fully inform me that I could never do anything like that. All my answers to those sorts of questions would be complete horseshit I've clearly pulled from my rear end on the spot, or I'd just say "who the gently caress knows?" to stuff like "What is the gold piping on Emily's outfit made of?". thebardyspoon fucked around with this message at 20:58 on Nov 7, 2016 |

I finished dishonored 1 in high chaos, really enjoyed how different it was in both subtle and not-so-subtle ways. you can clearly see your actions influencing emily's mindset when she says "if someone killed my mother, and someone killed the high regent, then when I'm empress, how will I stop someone from killing me?" Samuel's last condemnation really stung too. Now I'm trying to finish the DLCs before dishonored 2 comes out because I never played them for some reason. The knife of dunwall is quite good so far, and it's got several new options for low chaos which is great and makes me hopeful that dishonored 2 will make low chaos just as well fleshed out as high chaos.

I shot samuel straight in the face on my first run after he started scolding me the first time I played. Ended up having to swim to the last mission.

Neat. I'd heard about the "high-chaos" last mission where Samuel alerts the entire island, but I guess my high-chaos wasn't high-chaosy enough? He just told me he didn't want to see me again. I did a replay of both the game and DLC, doing them the opposite way that I did them the first time around: High-chaos main-game, low-chaos DLC. The both the main game and DLC definitely feel harder when going for the high chaos approach. Delilah's manor was a cake-walk on low chaos, so fewer bone-puppies.

Yeah I am also in the crowd that fired a parting shot at Samuel when he let off the flare. If he hadn't done that I would've let him live! You say I'm the 'worst of all of em', I'll show you 'worst' buddy! <>
