Dishonored 2 |OT| The Edge of the World

Holy shit this save bug is annoying, 10 minutes of progress lost. Basically idea is that you e.g. quick save and then load that save guards that previously were passive may be now alerted, random guard may have spawned that didn't exist before, your location may be slightly different than when you saved etc.
All kinds of fun stuff!

I've found the timing finicky but the range is quite generous. If you are remotely close to them then the game will auto-connect the attack.

Game install is stuck at 57%. Can't progress past the tutorial. Can already tell this game is going to be a hassle from start to finish.

I had the day off so I got this from Redbox. Not into it after a couple hours. Really liked the first game.
It feels like you had way more room to mess up and fix situations in the first game than you do here. I've just found my way awkwardly fighting through guards half the time when I mess up, which is not very fun.
Also, were the first games controls this awkward and I just forgot? Having to move stuff in and out of quickuse slots, having to switch between Heart and Teleport (don't remember name) when hunting for items. Just doesn't feel good a lot of the time.

It's weird I had the game paused when I was posting that and when I went back to it it's perfectly fine. No issues at all now apart from sucking at the game.
Thanks for the info guys.
I'll probably grab this once it hits $20-30
issue will resurface through whole game, here and there.

Not seeing good impressions of the performance. Thinking about returning it and get it after it's on sale.

Just completed the hospital and it was a great designed location. Only gripe so far is the aiming with Far Reach. It feels a lot harder to direct it where exactly you want it to go compared to Blink in D1.

Hitting the skull before they form kills them, if they are already formed you need to destroy the skull that's left after you "kill them"
Thanks guys, didn't think of that. Makes sense when you think about it.
Edit: Also it
doesn't count as kill, YES

Okay. After rebuilding the database, restarting my Ps4, and deleting /reinstaling the game, it's working again. Painful.
Hmm, only about 30-60 minutes into it but i don't really enjoy the stealth in this game so far. I feel like i don't have any sense where any enemy is so i can plan my attack. Sure i can peek around the corner but it feels so awkward, at least how it's controlled on the PS4 for me. I much prefer Deus ex as a stealth game. Though i am early in the game and have no powers.
Really like the world and story so far though.

You can get Dark Vision but its not really OP like a usual wallhack.
I don't think the game is that fun, if you're being seen or heard you'll get a legion of enemies on your ass and the fighting is awkward. Equipping the heart is tedious and having to re equip something to shut off its ability sucks too. But have to play more, i'm only in mission 3.
Yea it gets better once you get to chapter 3
I'm getting used to it the more i play. But man was it hard to hit the bottles with the crossbow in the tutorial lol.
So the stats menu, under global it shows I've been spotted 3 times, but under mission and play through it's zero times, I do reload a previous save if I'm spotted. The question is, does the global stat effect the outcome for the trophy/achievement?
Also, playing PS4 version, aiming feels off no matter if friction is at zero or not. Tons of graphical bugs, sluggish frame rate and I know the game isn't pushing the PS4 at all. My system is pretty quiet while playing, unlike every other major triple-a game I've played and some indies.
Edit: Even hitting the options button to get to options is slow and sluggish to respond.

On second thoughts I'm not sure it's input lag but some weird momentum thing as if the movement keeps going when you stop moving the stick. It's horrible, creates a swimmy feeling to the aiming.

It's probably because I'm doing a pacifist/ghost/no powers run to start but I'm finding this game much more difficult than the first one and I had to tick it down from Very Hard. It's really challenging for me to know where enemies are and where they are patching outside of trial and error. Luckily the game has a really nice quick save and load.
In assuming the only stats that will matter are the ones under playthrough, otherwise they save/load becomes pointless. That's how it was for the first one.
This is true. If you sit still you will slowly move the camera in whatever way you are facing. Took me a few minutes to realise it was happening. I thought it was the head bobbing but nope still happening after I turned that all the way down.

Wait, really? That's absurd. Thought Foster sounded familiar, and I didn't pick up on Rockwell's character at all. How was this never a part of the game's marketing? I remember them making a big deal about the cast of the first game (included Susan Sarandon, Lena Headey, Chloe Grace Moretz, and John Slattery).

These impressions aren't sounding too hot... I was pretty much a guaranteed Day 1 buyer for this after falling in love with Dishonored late after it's release but input lag, performance issues and confined levels are exactly the things that could ruin a Dishonored experience.
Maybe I'll pick this up next year if it's all fixed up. Really disappointing.

My run was ruined by a civilian death in Mission 2 and I have no idea how.
the aiming just feels horrible on ps4. The momentum is sending my aim far off where it should be, it's like I'm constantly battling with the stick.Every game that has anything to do with Bethesda seems to have poor sound mixing.
Going by the first game, I liked it OK in stealth run, but it wasn't till I switched to chaos that it got really fun.
Yeah it's pretty crazy but I haven't followed the marketing at all for this game.
Are you punished in this one for using a lethal approach, just like in the first one?
I've completed the first mission using a legal approach but it wasn't clear if this would have an effect going forward. Hopefully it's changed as I really hated this system in the first game. Punishing you for the way you choose to play.

Ah so PC performance is still unaddressed. Got cha.
So here is what happens when I take out target in nonlethal way in Mission 05; https://gfycat.com/ScrawnyOnlyBlacknorwegianelkhound
Anyone else ran into this bug and found workaround?
Edit: Tweeted this to dev too, but I think he is too busy with liking "12/10, GOTY!" tweets.

It still has the chaos system which depends on how many dudes you kill.
