Featured reviews
The graphics are gorgeous, and Stephen Russel and Erica Luttrell both do fine jobs as the protagonists' voices, but the story feels a little too parallel to the first one. The dialogue itself is kind of clunky at times, and most of the sets are, if beautiful, uninspired. Not a bad sequel by any means, but not quite the best.
There are basically two ways you can play this game and I'm pretty sure you're gonna have fun with either, especially if you enjoyed the first one. The plot is kind of simple, and it works, but this game's looks are pretty amazing.
Dishonored 2, much like the first one, is a steampunk blessing.

Visually Dishonored 2 is a step-up to its predecessor even though it still has few performance issues. In terms of the story, I find it to be relatively same to the previous title. For a more "unique" experience I recommend playing as the empress/daughter.
The map levels are insanely decorative and elaborative with almost infinite details regarding the game's world. The exotic scenery of this game is a nice change to the cold and brutal atmosphere of Dunwall, the previous game's location. Gameplaywise, a lot is improved with new abilities that also make the non-lethal approach genuinely fun as opposed to the last game.
It would have been extremely fun to play as Emily only and have her father/Corvo guide her, lecture her etc. That way the story would have had many plot opportunities. Overall, this is a good stealthy game that is accompanied with an extremely atmospheric world full of in-game stories.

This game is worth the shot. I loved the first game, and thought the second one somehow added even more variety. Intense stealth-action game. You determine which route to take, who to kill, who to spare, what to pick up and what to leave alone. If you want to kill every single person in the game, do it. If you want to move around the world like a shadow and kill no one, do it. If you want to only kill your HVT's, do it. Hell, if you want to let everyone live besides the innocent civilians, DO IT! This game is not lacking in graphical fidelity at all whatsoever. My recommendation, take the game slow and explore every nook and cranny you can.
Dishonored 2 is a huge improvement in almost every aspect over its counter part. Gameplay and stealth seem to be improved with a more dedicated focus on narrative and story. The game lets you play as fan loved Corvo (who is now voiced) or his daughter Emily. Both characters have their own unique powers leaving a lot of room for replay-ability. The game travels across many different and unique looking locations not letting the player get fatigued by the same scenery like in the first.
