I know but a lot of other people don't. They just see the Bethesda name and think it's by them.

Need to change the OT title into "Longer than 4 hours and not developed by Bethesda"
Reminds me when the L.A. Noire thread was labelled as "Team Bondi's L.A. Noire"

I just need to say, that I hope somebody steps up and fills the shoes left behind by our beloved Dennis, and spends the first day filling this thread with absurdly large and glorious PC screens. =P
It had quite a bit about Dishonored too. Also thank you for the article, that was one of the better ones I've read in a long time. I must have somehow missed it earlier in the year.

Same here, that review has me on the brink of madness lest I get this game. Well not really, but it is one of my most anticipated this year. I love Arkane games.

Okay this really does sound great. Hopefully when playing on the default difficulty or harder there will be a good amount of challenge / play time involved. Need more reviews.

I'm definately buying the game. My attention span has diminished over the years, and there are few, few games that I'm interested, but I need something to play, and Dishonored will be that game.

Just curious, if I did buy a copy of the game on GreenManGaming and used a VPN to activate it early: Would there be a problem with doing that?

GMG hasn't sent out keys yet, but if they do before it launches in your region, and it launches in another, then yes you could technically use a VPN to active it. As for problems, yes you would be breaching Valve's terms of service, and yes they would have the right to ban your account for this behaviour.
Whether or not they actually would bother is completely unknown. Most believe the ToS update specifying the new ruling exists to curb mass buying/reselling from one region to another, and not simple activation of already purchased games. I did it with Sleeping Dogs.
Steam doesn't normally care if you use a VPN to unlock it early but you need the key from GMG and they're not giving them out until release day.

I'm starting to worry GMG might not send me my key until the 12th (EU version.)
I don't think they ever will since the people are paying customers.

RAGE is awesome from start to finish.

I agree. Great game.

I assume this game is going to be near impossible to mod on the PC?
Can't find anything that mentions modding support...which is kinda weird.

How's modding with other UE3 games? I'd assume it would be similar to those.

Really? We just had a major gaming event here in The Netherlands where you could go hands on with the Wii-U, play Black Ops 2 and a shitton of other games like God of War Ascension were there but Dishonered wasn't. Seems like bad marketing to me :/.

Anime? It was the creepshots thread I'm pretty sure of that.
I'll argue about the finish but it was 90% awesome though.
Pre-ordered this game via PSN+
I probably should have rolled PC since I have a plenty-capable rig - but for some reason I am opting for my big screen, comfy couch and controller since I am a big fan of stealth and my computer chair availed me no comfort on my stealth character in Skyrim for the countless hours I dumped into that game... not to mention my PC isn't setup for 5.1, whereas the console gaming area of my bro-cave is. I usually split purchases between the two and my last few have been PC so I needed to switch it up a bit - my PC backlog is larger than my PS3 backlog, atm.
I also wanted to try out PSN's DD pre-order feature to see how well the experience works for me and the discount was just a bonus.
All in all I am excited for this game since it is right up my alley for stealth gameplay. Here's hoping the PS3 version will be up to snuff and the DD pre-order option from PSN goes smoothly.

I know that the PC version has a lot of customization in terms of HUD, but what about the console versions? Anyone know?

I think I recall someone in this thread stating consoles had a save anywhere feature with 4 auto save slots.

RAGE was an excellent shooter wrapped in terrible pacing and padding. At least it looked pretty.
The game saves 10 times more often that I do. I tend to reload autosaves pretty frequent because you can mess up a lot: overblinking, get seen, etc.
Been playing the 360 version. Don't regret going console. Quite a good game. We have seen it all before and the experience is overly familiar but I like it. It took me like 4 hours to complete the first big mission with everything collected.
It reminds me a lot of the first Deus Ex, in terms of gameplay. Graphics are very mixed. Quite static and some very bad lighting and texture work.
Also, this game only seems to have empty bottles lying around. I look forward to playing more.
You can save anywhere btw. Loading times are long.

Yeah we need new consoles. Games with sub par graphics but long loading times shows it. I know the levels are big and sprawling but developer ambition has been out running console power for a couple years now.

Woah. This is gonna be the first game in a long time that is single player only that I will buy for a full price.
Long load times are unfortunate. Are you playing installed or off the disc?
