It's A Shame We Don't Get Games Like This Anymore...

  • Arkane are famous for crafting immersive, thought-provoking experiences. Before Deathloop and Prey, they plied their trade with Dishonored. Now, ostensibly a stealth-orientated action-adventure series, Dishonored and it’s 2016 sequel are remembered for more than just their gameplay.
    Dishonored 2 has numerous strengths which, as this feature goes on to explain, don’t necessarily help it stand out from the pack when assessed individually. Instead, it’s the sum of its parts which make this a special, memorable sequel. Fantastic world building, superb superpowers, multi-faceted branching narrative, and endless replayability elevate Dishonored 2 to a game which stands as a relic; something distinct which hasn’t been totally replicated since.
    Should Arkane return to one of their legacy franchises, then it must be Dishonored. It’s 2016 sequel is fantastic, and a type of game which seems to have gone by the wayside.

    Played all Dishonored games (plus their extra content) for the first time a few months ago. Greatly realized world, art direction, and characters, and great replay value. Be sure to play Dishonored: Death of the Outsider too, not just up to Dishonored 2. DotO basically gives a nice conclusion to the storyline started from the first game. Recommend the whole series for sure.

    To anyone looking for similar games, These games belong to a sub genre called *"Immersive Sims"*
    Usually it's those games that require you to let's say open a door to get in a room, you can unlock the door, steal the key, kill the one with the keys, blow the door, or go outside and get through the window, the possibilities are numerous, let's say maybe there's a house that other games won't allow you to enter unless you play through the story, but in an immersive sim, there's always a way in, as long as it makes sense, meaning with no glitches, just using the tools and the abilities that the game gives you but it doesn't tell you just how many uses it has.
    Games like, Deus ex, system shock, prey 2017, arx fatalis, thief, dark messiah and ofc dishonored.
    But here's the thing, i really don't know why developers nowadays don't bother making these games, they're timeless games and provide tons of freedom and creativity, it's a shame they've been somewhat ignored.
    But fine, I'll just replay them.

    What l loved about the story of Dishonored was it was a story about revenge revenge stories are so great and compelling to play because you have a character who has everything taken away from him and it so satisfying to see him get everybody back that wronged him one by one it’s payback time and see him get back everything he lost is a great feeling

    Such a shame that after DOTO and Prey the Arkane studios focused on making a live service game that was hated and a roguelike with multiplayer elements that was overhyped. Now with Arkane Austin shut down, the industry has become a much sadder place.

  • @mandrews6282
    @mandrews6282 Před měsícem +1

    It pains me that Arkane Austin was pitching a new Dishonored Game when XBox shuttered them. Imagine a new gen Dishonored from the division that developed Prey and Dishonored 1. It could have been awesome.

  • @mrmhj9925

    Dishonoured 1 and 2 are masterpieces, especially the first one for me. Good times, such a beautiful game and so many creative ways to complete a level. I love it. I think it’s art style and world building really hit it with me. Love the story and the lore of the world as well.
    Wish I could re live it with playing it for the first time again. 🖤

    • @GrohiikVahlokJul
      @GrohiikVahlokJul Před měsícem

      Arkane also made Prey, a very cool game of similar open options, where every enemy can be defeated like it was doom (seriously, you if you build for it you are noticeably stronger than the 2016 Doomslayer), or taken out like a small puzzle where you learn a weakness and pattern and then beaten no matter how otherwise weak your build is.
      Deus Ex Human Revolution is also a good game, a little less freedom, with somewhat more binary choices, but still lots of room to explore and find hidden things.
      Baldur's Gate 3 has an incredible variety of ways to tackle your problems.
      Fallout New Vegas definitely tries to give you a good amount choice in how you deal with and solve situations, but a bit more scripted in its methods of doing so.
      A weird option in Wolfenstein the New Order, an otherwise very blatant FPS game that gives you a surprising amount of freedom to attempt to stealth situations for it's genere, and has many hidden things to find.
      And not related to anything really, but Dragon Age Origins is always worth playing.
      Prey, Deus Ex, and Baldur's Gate 3, are likely your best bets though.

  • @ledumpsterfire6474
    @ledumpsterfire6474 Před měsícem

    Unfortunately the chaos system really fumbled the replayability of the games.
    Because of it, I can't accept anything less than ghost/non-lethal, because my decisions are driven by 1) not wanting to get a shitty ending, and 2) not wanting to get a non-canon ending since playing one usually means I plan to play the series. Pretty immersion destroying to get an ending that's immediately contradicted when you start the next game.
    That's great for a challenge run, but not so much for a game that's meant to be enjoyed repeatedly, given you can't interact with many of the most fun mechanics without worrying about getting that shitty ending.
    Wish they would've skipped the moral "good vs bad" shit and made more morally complex endings for each playstyle.
