Dishonored 2 Standard Edition Steam CD Key
Dishonored 2 is a continuation of the best-selling stealth and FPP game released in 2012. As before, the gameplay is set in a fictional world inspired by the period of the industrial revolution, in which elements of magic and steampunk were combined with the industrial aesthetics of the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. The version for the PC, PS4 and XONE platform is again the result of cooperation between the French studio Arkane (also known for the action game Dark Messiah of Might & Magic released in 2006) with the publisher of Bethesda Softworks - the owner of such brands as The Elder Scrolls and Fallout.
Dishonored 2 takes place 15 years after the events of the first installment of the series. Corvo Attano returns as the main character, but is also joined by Emily Kaldwin, the rightful heir to the imperial throne and privately daughter of Attano. The story no longer takes place only in Dunwall, the capital of the island Empire ruled by the Caldwin family, known from its predecessor, but in the warm south, in the city of Karnak, the seat of the Duke of Serkonos Island. The protagonists end up there, forced to flee far from Dunwall after Emily is deceitfully crowned by the witch Delila (known from the two Dishonored DLCs). Having reached Karnaka, the heroes begin to work out a network of conspirators and look for a way to restore the throne of the young empress.
In the prologue, we have to choose whether we want to start the game as a young ruler or whether we want to jump back into the shoes of the protagonist from the first Dishonored - Corvo Attano. Although the story is roughly the same for both characters (the discrepancies are really small), the decision is so important that it cannot be changed - the other hero is imprisoned in Dunwall, and you can play him only on the next approach to the campaign . Each character plays a bit differently due to a different set of available magical powers and other dialogue issues (this time Corvo received a voice actor, Stephen Russell, known mainly as Garrett from the older parts of the Thief series).
The formula of the game itself has not changed significantly compared to the previous installment of the series. In Dishonored 2 for PC, PS4 and XONE, the fun still comes down to completing new missions, the structure of which is somewhat reminiscent of the games from the aforementioned Thief series. We are faced with various goals, among which there are often assassinations, but the method of their implementation depends entirely on us - we have a lot of freedom in deciding which path to get to the indicated place in a vast location, dealing with guards (killing them in an open space). fighting, silent murdering, stunning, avoiding etc.), searching for additional information, dealing with optional guidelines, as well as whether we will murder or get rid of our victims in a bloodless manner. The game can be completed without killing anyone - including the shooting conspirators. The game promotes exploration in particular - exploring the nooks and crannies of extensive locations allows you not only to discover alternative methods of completing story missions, but also unlock side missions and discover the flavors hidden by the developers, referring to the history of the first Dishonored.
Instead of trying to revolutionize and turn upside down the commonly valued solutions from the predecessor, the creators only made the evolution of already known mechanisms. In Dishonored 2, the visited locations have become significantly larger and richer in possibilities, and the chaos system (assessing the aggressiveness of the player's actions) has been improved so that it more precisely monitors the hero's actions and determines their consequences in more ways (this primarily affects the dialogue issues of the protagonists and the general climate and the end of the adventure). In addition, the mechanics of developing the power of the heroes and the arsenal of available equipment (including cartridges that interfere with the operation of mechanical guards or bolts that force the target to escape) have been expanded, allowing the user to further personalize his approach to the game.
Like its predecessor, Dishonored 2 offers only a single player campaign - no co-op mode is included here. However, it is possible to adjust the difficulty level of the struggle. In addition to the four levels of vigilance and murderous enemies, the
