I played the pirate version back in 2016, and after all these years, I’m back to one of the finest games ever made.
Dishonored 2 is pure art. The atmosphere is rich, the world feels alive, and the design, from stunning visuals to haunting sound is masterful. Karnaca is unforgettable.
The gameplay still shines: stealth or chaos, every path feels meaningful, every power creative. It hasn't aged and it’s still a masterpiece.
Sadly, Arkane has lost that old magic. Games like this remind us what they were truly capable of...

Dishonored 2: The game where you can either stealthily sneak past your enemies like a shadowy ghost or stab them in the face while wearing the world's most fashionable stealth suit. As Emily or Corvo, you get supernatural powers that make you feel like the lovechild of a ninja and a wizard. Want to teleport behind someone and choke them out? No problem. Want to possess a rat and run through a tiny crack in the wall? Totally doable. It’s like the game says, "Hey, why not combine the art of stealth with the chaotic energy of an exasperated parent trying to keep their kids from destroying the living room?" 10/10, would possess a rat again.
