I had played Dishonored 2 about a year after it was first released, and it was a lot of fun. I love stealth games and I really liked the take it had on the genre. So a couple months ago when I saw the first one had a steam sale I decided to pull the trigger and I’m glad I did. Man, this game is good! I’ve played through it twice now, and I just started the Knife of Dunwall DLC. I’m really enjoying the unique art style, and I think I prefer the general feel to that of the second game.

If you haven’t given this one a shot yet I’d highly recommend it. It still looks incredible and it feels super smooth to play.

    It‘s definitely on my list but I try to stick to a few games at a time so I don‘t get lost in the sauce like with Let‘s Build A Zoo where I straightup can‘t remember how anything works anymore lol

    Right now I‘m absorbed in Slay the Spire which has never clicked before but suddenly it has!

      Yeah I get that. When Sekiro finally clicked for me a few months ago I didn’t even think about another game for a long while. I got 100% in the game and then proceeded to do a challenge run all before I touched another video game

        To this day I can‘t tell if I love or hate Sekiro. Probably both. Spoiler free, the Shura (?) ending final boss made me want to throw my controller with their „the floor is lava“ attack, and Guardian Ape was… let‘s say I googled for cheese strats.

        I think I would‘ve enjoyed it more if I had put it aside for a while, but I got stubborn. All in all, I‘d do it again.

          It’s probably the most well-made game I’ve ever played. Guardian Ape is probably my favourite boss too, funnily enough. I guess I just love pain and punishment. The hardest part about getting 100% was grinding for all skills, that was rough.

            That was last for me. I vaguely remember using a shrine in a snowy atea with 3 or so guards near it you could backstab kill over and over and over again to grind for it. Games love to have that one annoying achievement. Hope you gave Nioh and Nioh 2 a shot also! Code Vein isn‘t as good IMO but servicable. Dunno how to do the final boss there without co-op, but I don‘t have to lol
