Dishonored- Another Assassin's Creed
Hurray, another game where I can be stealthy and kill people. As you know, many gamers can't wait for the upcoming Assassin's Creed III coming out October 30th. For those who think they won't last another day, I highly reccomend Dishonored. The game is very impressive. It's basically Assassin's Creed+Steampunk+Supernatural powers. You play as a man named Corvo Attano. He is framed for a crime he didn't commit after coming from a foreign voyuage to seek aid with a deadly plague ravagining the city. Now, it's time for revenge after he recieves powers from the Outsider in the dream world. These said powers are the power of possession, time stop/slow, dark vision (xray vision), teleportation, summoning deadly rats, wind blasts, and the power to turn your enemy into ash to prevent their discovery. If that's not awesome, I don't know what is. I mean, come on. Supernatural powers makes killing in video games a lot easier. I mean, the game is going be a challenge, but I don't have to sneak in the shadows all the time and blend in with people so I don't get seen, and a silent kill is more possible. The only thing I really don't like is the fact that you can't use two powers at once. It's not that serious, but I would really like to freeze time and then posses someone so they could become my shield or something. I think that would be cool. Anyway, back to the postivies. I really like the steampunk theme of the game. It makes me feel like I'm playing Assassin's Creed, but it's not Assassin's Creed. I believe the theme adds to the atmosphere of the game. Also, the main character's mask and mark looks freakin awesome. I also like the mission and side quest system. Again, almost like Assassin's Creed. Almost. Overall, I believe Dishonored is a way for Assassin's Creed fans to relieve themseleves of the wait for Assassin's Creed. HOWEVER, the game is no Assassin's Creed. It can never replace that game. Assassin's Creed III comes out in eight days. If those eight days are too long, play Dishonored to calm your mind. But as soon as AC III comes out, it's a choice between steampunk or Revolution. I can't tell you what to pick. I'm only announcing my thoughts. Voice of a Gamer signing out.
