Screenshots from Dishonored 2


Dishonored 2 is one of my favorite games of all time. When it came out, I had trouble running it on my potato of a computer, but my new rig is more than capable of maintaining high frame rates at 1440p and max quality. The art direction is phenomenal, and you can really appreciate how good it is when you disable the HUD notifications, which Dishonored 2 lets you do in its menus. Modern games condition the player to blindly follow objective markers, yet you can play Dishonored 2 without handholding, simply by thoroughly exploring the levels and reading whatever material you find. I'm planning on doing an essay about why this game is so good, but in the meantime, here's a collection of screenshots conveying Dishonored 2's incredible artistry.

Dunwall streets.


Overseers taking a dirt nap.


Karnaca streets.


Just fishing on the docks.


Streets paved with whale blood.


Watch out for the search lights.


A beautiful shrine to the Outsider.


Some of the poetry in this game is pretty good.


The museum, which is full of witches.


Giant owls on display.


Ghouls.


Incredible detail on the Dreadful Wale.


The seas of Karnaca.


Some guards who met an unfortunate end.


The Heart makes a return.


 

 There's really no good way to deal with Jindosh.

Bad Poetry: Getting Old

  To wake up Is to stretch the shoulders Pull on the neck Pop the back Crack the knees Bend the joints and listen To the cacophony of sounds...
