My new favorite ImSim!
In the tradition of immersive sim games, Dishonored is all about dropping you in wide open-ended levels and letting you reach your objectives by going nuts with a bunch of tools and powers… and it’s not just good at it, it’s one of the best in the genre. Making your way through the city of Dunwall feels excellent due to the fantastic multi-layered level design, the high mobility given to your character (he can parkour AND teleport!), and the high variety of weapons, powers and items that allow you to bypass obstacles and subdue foes in all manners of creative and satisfying ways. For each problem you encounter, every solution you can think of, whether brutal or subtle, simple or twisted, is a valid one! Dishonored ends up being a blast to play throughout. The only issues are that hand-to-hand combat feels a bit clumsy (which is not surprising since it's meant to be avoided)... and of course, that the gameplay is a lot less diverse and open-ended if you play as a pacifist, which is pretty much necessary to unlock the best ending. Fortunately, the included DLCs partially fix this problem by adding more non-lethal options to the arsenal of their protagonist, the assassin Daud. All of this is complemented by solid storytelling and art direction. The plot isn't that remarkable in itself but it provides good justifications for the gameplay, and the fictional world it’s set in has its own detailed lore and a lot of very interesting locations to explore. Similarly, the graphics are not particularly impressive for 2012, but it’s still definitely a nice-looking game with its own unique aesthetics and atmosphere. In the end, Dishonored really satisfies the urge to incarnate a badass skull-faced assassin who kills dudes by teleporting behind them and ramming a blade through their necks - an urge all of us normal people feel, right? It is a fantastic game made by a very competent team, and the first entry in a great franchise that deserves to be expanded and recognized.
