after spending years languishing in my backlog i picked it back up and after finishing the entire thing in two sittings. i am delighted to report that it is Good. a more minimalist take on dishonored 2's gameplay, but with a new set of great levels to play around in, along with memorable main and side objectives (i particularly enjoyed robbing the black market on each level). a lot grislier than 2 is, with chaos no longer being a factor in play, but not as dark as dishonored 1 was. the level quality does begin to flag a bit as time goes on, but i can excuse that, especially since it doesnt impact the pacing. good game, maybe not worth €30? but worth picking up on sale along with dishonored 2
