For anyone watching this in 2019- all texture issues etc are patched, game is smooth as fuck on PC and worth every steam sale penny
this man has replaced angry Joe for me as the reviews I use to purchase games. Very well produced acg.
Gu Wop i only watch angry joe for entertainment, acg is a legit reviewer
Gu Wop In my opinion, Angry Joe has slacked off on his reviews. He tries to sound interesting and informative, but most of it is random mumbo jumbo.
Gu Wop I like him because he gives you enough info to know if you'll like it or not regardless of his recommendation
I get bothered when I watch Angry Joe's videos.
Yup. Dude is more about movie reviews/reactions now.
For everyone checking in at 2019, bugs are completely removed at least on PC. Playing with Gtx 1070, Ryzen 5 1600 and 16 Ram, the game plays like butter. Its all Fun Factor now, and you Will get lost in this world. Its 100% buy with current prices and just how next level it is if you love story games.
I called the bad optimisation a mile away and tried, politely, to warn people on Steam against pre-ordering after I read "16 GB of RAM" on the requirements page. I was met with about as much respect you'd find at a Trump rally. Glad to see Bethesda's new review standards are working out so well for people. Just like they did for Deus Ex earlier this year.
*Edit: Apologies to anyone offended that I mentioned Trump... no wait, I'm not. Fuck off.
*Edit again: Seriously, stop wasting your energy on my Trump analogy and achknowledge the rest of the post as was intende. This wasn't meant to be political, and I'm mocking an extremist group that has confirmed caused violence and fear. I'm disabling replies. If you take offense, move on.
And some Bethesda fanboys still defended the new review rules when what we wanted was to avoid these issues. They changed the rules, all they had to do to keep people's trust was to not release a shitty port and they failed miserably. The game needed quite a bit more polish, whether it's performance, sound or AI, it needed more work.
I guess launching a broken game or a shitty port is part of Bethesda's DNA.
About as much respect you find at a Trump protest were people block the 101 freeway in a state Hillary won. You can add vandalism to the list to.
You just had to bring u politics huh? It clearly goes both ways. I've seen plenty of violence from the Hillary side as well.
No, I'm not a Trump supporter, just calling it like it is.
Wait what!! "16 GB of RAM" hahaha
What does Deus Ex have to do with Bethesda?
Aurodeep Kamal Deus Ex was another stealth game released by a major publisher so broken on launch for PC and missing so much content that it sits at a 64% positive currently on Steam. They also held its review copies until a meagre amount of time before launch, even deactivating previously unknown microtransactions and litetally fooling people into thinking they weren't in the game.
Bethesda: wait for the patch and it'll be really good!
Wait for the remastered version in 5 years with mods and it'll be good.
"Wait for fans to fix it."
But wait, the bugs will still be there just like Skyrim.
jlcmiles yeah, Maybe, but compared to skyrim this is made by another studio (Arcane, and not you know, directly from bethesda). So that might not be the case, bu you know, could as likely also be the case.
skyrim is a massive game, so its more tolerable unless you played the steaming pile of shit that was the ps3 version.
Huh this game has technical issues, i guess thats why bethesda changed their review policy's lmao
Exactly
yeah, that line where ACG says "that should have never gotten through in test" made me laugh. like AAA titles go through any testing these days. essentially when you buy a new game, you pay $60 to be a beta tester. months later when games work right, i pick them up on steam at half price.
apparently this game was ready about a month and a half ago and this time was supposed to be for fixing bugs.... looks like that wasn't the case
they do just not great lol
+feelingtardy yes, it does seem like when you buy a game at release you have to let it sit for a few months in order to get it decent working
3:25 Kek. The fuck is the guard doing?
www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=kek
Tobias Eisele HAHAHHA man you cracked me up
Means "lol"
He was trying to doing Randy Orton's toe-touch-split.
I guess I learned something new today...kek. :)
The first game is one of my favorite games of all time. I guess I should wait a while.
Thanks for the review.
Javier Sánchez Yeah same... Im scared... What if they give no real fix for the pc? And we have to wait 2-3 years to be able to play this at 144 hz? Like damn. If I change from Very Low too Ultimate, the fps does not really change...
Javier Sánchez i've played it twice and i still don't get all the hype. in my opinion it was nothing special, what do you think it is that makes this game so good?
The Last Black Saiyan So many reasons! Most of them personal actually so I'll skip basically all of them.
But still maybe the most influential reason is that one of my top most favorite games of all time is Deus Ex (the first one). Ugh I wont go into detail but if you want to know how that game relates to Dishonored, I highly recommend to watch Mark Brown's video "The Comeback of the Immersive Sim | Game Maker's Toolkit"
So besides Gameplay and also the game in general just having a great classy quality to it, the setting ended up inspiring me quite a lot through the years. Specially because I usually help a friend of mine make fantasy worlds for his PnP RPG campaigns.
Javier Sánchez ok cool, maybe ill give dishonored 2 a try
The Last Black Saiyan Oh well I'm waiting for some patches to come out and the like.
I can wait quite a lot, specially because I want to enjoy the game so much.
I sometimes wonder how you come up with these phrases Karak.....great review as always.
my mind is a universe filter lol
my only complaint so far is Corvos voice, he had more power and mystic as a mute
AKN Concept but I wanted him to have a voice
AKN Concept your picture XD faith
Nobody complains about Garrett's voice!
think issue is they just got terrible voice actor for him, yes i know who he is, but they should of gotten someone else has actually done voice work.
what'd you mean "someone else has actually done voice work" ? Stephen Russell has been an voice actor since 1998
Thank you for the review. I'm trying to avoid a lot of coverage of this game in fear of spoilers, but I can always trust your reviews.
yep
ACG you originally from the northeast usa? i only heard people speak at your pace in these regions 😆 mainly boston business conventions 😆
Rogerio ur not missing much
Pre-order to play a day early! = pre-order to test our beta for $60
I don't understand what the point of doing that was. This isn't a competitive online multiplayer game where you want to play it while it's hot.
It's $50, and you get DH1 enhanced edition with all dlc for free.
$75 in Canada.
Angry Toast which I got for my PS4 brand new for £7, huge difference, this looks like it's worth less than £10 itself!
Or $105 for that collectors edition :D. Except I just fuicking love this series so it's worth it to me, even if I have to play at 30 fps on like low and medium settings on my $1700 pc xD for now. Oh not to mention 1080p monitor so that's nice -_-
You sure do work hard, man. Thank you.
thkx
17 fps on a GTX 1080? And this is the first brand new title Bethesda releases under their anti-consumer review code policy, what a joke.
I have a 1080, playing at 1440p ultra. Lowest FPS I saw was 58. BUT it swings between 144 and 60 constantly, and it's pretty annoying. The actual game is excellent though.
DrearierSpider1 Remember, fanboys defended it because it supposedly prevented "spoilers." Well the game was "spoiled" the second the FPS drops occurred.
It's really badly optimized. I know it's hard to make games work for all types of hardware but it seems like Bethesda only managed to make the game properly work on the minority of PC's.
ya just saw a video of someone with a 1080 getting 5 hahahah. Jezuz
nope, 60 fps here at 4k with a gtx 1080. maybe you shouldnt believe someone who spits out more words than eminem in a 5 second rap battle.
After Patches, this game is easily better than the first game, it does a sequel good.
The Clockwork Mansion, and broken time level were brilliant levels.
I don't know if I'm a sufficiently avid gamer to subscribe to your channel on this basis alone, but I just wanted to thank you for the time and effort you've clearly put into these reviews. I've only seen a handful thus far, but it's obvious that there's a lot of thought and craftmanship behind the way they've been created- even if the games they talk about, don't. Keep up the great work!
And thank you sir
ashtherion I can only support your comment
Out of interest how many hours do you spend on one title? Because your reviews are so in-depth I don't know where you get the time.
Yep, you've definitely got the best reviews on the entire 'net. Nobody else even comes close.
I subbed. These are the most informative reviews i've ever watched.
The GOTY edition will be fantastic. When will gamers realize that we have FAR more patience than publishers do when it comes to buying games? The sea of pre-order gamers are why we get broken games. There is no incentive for publishers to release a quality game if they know enough people will buy the game broken. Stop buying broken games in hopes someone on reddit or forums will have a "fix."
Finally got around to playing this (early 2018) after loving Dishonored 1 and i can honestly say i thoroughly enjoyed it. Played as Emily on the PC over 3 days. Good Times. No technical issues. No bugs. No crashes. It pays to wait till the developers have fixed everything.
You seriously need to have more subscribers! Great reviews. 👌
I haven't seen this written yet and fairly new to the channel, but you're rhetoric skills are extremely good, Karak. Very much enjoy when you are on Mr.Mattyplays Podcast; I really appreciate the sincerely informed and (at least seemingly) very intellectual approach you take to everything you do.
thanks
Np man, keep at at
exactly my sentiments.
Great review, really good work. Love the format, presentation, and delivery. This is the first review I've seen from ACG, but I'll be on the look out for more from now on!
Subscribed! Man You're Good at this! You make us feel how games play, sound, look, by comparing to movie scenes, life events that we've all been through or the feeling we get when... Looking forward to more reviews!
Again, thorough AF.
Keep it up man ;)
thanks
the story is very similar to dishonoured 1, assassin kills people, corvo gets framed, Emily Is captured (the empress or corvo on #2) and you try to find out who killed the people aswell as take out the leader and rescue the other hero
agreed!
Jamie Sturd I love how you're honest on the review keep up the good work
Hey man I just discovered your channel but I love your reviews. Well thought out and well written.
thanks spread the word
The guards at the beggining are Karnaka guards and bribed guards, you can find notes from Ramsey for guards
So basically, just get the Game of the Year Edition which will be out next year. I can happily wait...
ShiningT1g3R uncharted 4 is getting game of the year so no just wait for a sale.
The Batter The best games of the year release a goty edition . It doesn't have to be number 1 of that year . Oh and uncharted 4 sucks . It's just an interactive movie .
*In your Opinion it should*
Max Rai I agree. I honestly don't remember most of the story. Rise of the tomb raider on the other hand is a masterpiece in comparison. I'm having so much fun with that game.
not how GOTY editons work lol
and uncharted 4 isn't even that good
A shame. So many games lately that would have been an instant buy if developers simply made sure they worked.
It works great on consoles
Deus ex I thought that ran good
+ Quantum Break
+Saurabh Mazumdar oh yeah I forgot about that at least it wasn't a complete shit fest like arkham knight or just cause 3 god those were some of the worst ports I ever played especially just cause I couldn't even get 10 fps on that shit with a 970 instantly refunded it in 5 minutes lol
+Lou Bloom ew Just Cause 3
SUCH GOOD REVIEWS!!! its clear you put effort into this.. il be following your good work bud! YOU GOT YOURSELF A SUB!!!
thanks
I've been watching your videos for a while now but just subscribed today. you're the first guy I go to for game reviews. keep up the good work!
Thanks so much johnny
hey ACG is there a new game plus mode after you beat the game. can you start a new game with your upgrades???
"Hey Arcane you're part of Bethesda now, we put out broken games so there's no rush for polishing them sheeps will buy it anyway and we'll throw them some patches later at their faces. Also we should maybe consider buying Hangar 13 studio, they'd fit right in..." 2016 in all its glory.
They were acquired by Zenimax in 2010, before they released Dishonored 1. But I get your point. Post-release patches are not the way to go :P
Nite Waander *L*
Arkane had to prove themselves and a game like Dishonored had been in the works far longer, now they don't.
space delete we all wish you were either educated or crash. your grammar is awful and poorly represents the intellect of the human race as much as you think day 1 consumers are bad for video games.
the console versions are fine, I just got done playing the ps4 version and I barely encountered any bugs and glitches. Sure there are sometimes, heads going through a wall or AI doing some weird shit but not too crazy. PC version is another story though.
Hey man, first time watching your channel and I love it, I like how talk a little faster than average while having a long video fitting all that nice information in there, keep up the awesome work
thanks sir
You always come out with the reviews as I want them. Thanks for these.
u bet
Buying the game all excited and shit, then having to wait for patches, fixes and sometimes even content that had been chopped off of the actual game. This bullshit needs to stop.
Angry Toast More fool you for buying it on release then, the only way publishers and developers will stop releasing SHITE games is if people stop pre-ordering them and buying them on release week...
Peter Ryan Unfortunately, I don't see pre-orders going away anytime soon. We're just going to have to accept it.
But what you should expect, is for the game to be in working order, even if you pre-order it.
Those developers need to get that right at least.
Serosity I have an amd card. I don't know If there's something similar to this for amd.
I agree that games should be without issues on release... but pre ordering games/buying them on release week and giving them your money just like lots of other people when the majority of games have issues on release is why they won't bother to make the games "issue free" on release. They don't have to because people are lining their pockets regardless of quality. You can just wait and see somebody like ACG's review saying to wait until it gets fixed,
If more people wait for sales, we will have more of a chance at TERRIBLE QUALITY game releases being much less common!
Angry Toast I know especially as a pc gamer it seams that companies just focus all their time on the console version then just rush the pc version leading to really buggy games like Arkan Orgins.
I know that slide-stab instakill needs to be fixed, but who's *actually* going to be spamming that in a game that jerks people off for being obsessed with non-lethal ghosting?
I realize not everyone plays that way, but come on. Out of all the ways you can choose to play a Dishonroed game, spamming 1 attack for the entire game should not be one of them.
Neat review as always though! Really hoping they implement some PC fixes fast and that this isn't just another Mafia 3 situation.
Then again what happens hours ago. Videos of folks spamming the slide
Always nice to have ample demonstration to show the devs, if they even care about fixing it. It doesn't bother me that it exists right now but I know there'll be people who'll beat the game using nothing but that move and then complain about how short it was, lol.
Need a patch ASAP.
Still, if you discover that a singleplayer game has a spammable attack and, you find that using that attack lessens the enjoyment you get out of the game and, then you continue spamming that attack, you are just being irrational.
The God Emperor Incorrect. Unless you mean you magically fall on your sword during a heavy battle simply because of a bug. THat makes no sense. the rules set aside on a game that is working correctly is how the game should be experienced and bugs should be destroyed. Then again you are somehow assuming a newer person to the game will KNOW thats not on purpose. All things that are actually irrational.
_"Still, if you discover that a singleplayer game has a spammable attack..."_
I get your point, but I see things a bit differently. First, if it is a bug, than this bug needs to be fixed, but this is not even the point. The real point is that, assuming the problem is not a bug; you can't blame people for using an actual part of the game design.
It is in our nature to look for the smart and easy way and good games will actually use this and reward the player for being smart or clever. They will not punish you for being smart and the devs will not say things like _"You are playing it wrong!"_.
"Crysis 2" was a terrible game anyway, but the point where it became ridiculous was the actual playtime. I beat the game on my first run, on the highest difficulty setting _and_ without even upgrading (because Crytek never cared to fix the damn upgrade system) in less than 4 hours. And part of the problem was that one could just skip whole battles by just walking around them.
People pointed that out and Crytek and many fanboys claimed that we were "just playing the game wrong". No, I don't. Assuming I was a soldier and tasked with reaching a certain point on the map and do this incredibly crucial thing... now would I rather be under the radar as much as possible or would I join every random fight I see on the horizen, because... hell, this is war afterall and this is what we do in war?
this channel is the new "goto" channel for me. love these reviews, they are incredibly entertaining!
Once again a great review, thank you mate. Keep up the great work!
So glad I pre-ordered the collectors edition when it was announced, never had any issues on ps4.
Excellent review, I got it on a good sale and it turns out that it just had a major patch (2nd patch infact) that seems to address a lot of issues. Thanks for the upload.
thanks
The issue with the controls is infuriating. The center dead zone is huge, the look acceleration is absurd. It's like Halo 5 before 343i patched in the option to adjust both, which basically fixed Halo 5's controls. Arkane needs to do the same.
You are extremely entertaining ,glad i have subscribed,thank you .So much time you put into these reviews awesome.
thanks
one of the best most professional reviews I have ever heard from a game reviewer I subbed thumbs up and I will be coming back for more good reviews good sir!
This guy is my favorite reviewer these days. Good job dude!
Damn, was not expecting a review this fast. You must bust your ass playing through games that fast. Appreciate the effort.
Nah just sit back and play lol
ACG love how ign got the game first and still haven't created a review
Haha I guess I meant mentally bust your ass. Probably have to play for 4-6 hour chunks at a time.
I like games a ton too
They seem so fucking lazy, it's unbelievable. Reviews in progress and shit.
Love your reviews! 👌
Hey man, just found your channel and I have to say this is a great review. Keep up the great work.
thanks spread the word
Glad I watched this. Loved dishonored 1 but will wait until this one gets patched. Severely.
Finally a upload from you 😁 are you going to do a review for PS4 pro? Ima buy it anyway but just asking
Steven Day can you spell did you mean to say peasent ?
Dude don't it's a buggy game and you're only support Bethesda and their shitty policies.
Zenith Wills All Bethesda games are buggy... He can buy it if he wants, it's a fun game. APB Reloaded is a shit game but it's fun.
Jack Gardere That's not a good thing. And still it's good to protest.
TheRustiestPunk Oh didn't see that thanks.
Great vid as always sorry I'm super late. What do you suggest for tags on your videos?
Just suscribed! Awesome and informative content
thanks so much man
"Like everyone shows up to an ass-kicking contest but you have 3 legs, and no ass". That is the most amazing description I've ever heard about the importance of sound hahaha. Never change Karak, never change...
thanks Vidler!
How did you manage to upload a full review that fast? I mean, it's even official now that Bethesda sends out their review copies only one day before the games actually release. So even i got my review copy just yesterday afternoon.
I just play the game and talk.Its pretty easy. Its not a huge or overly long game either.
Oh, ok. I'm a reviewer myself (only german and for written reviews) and just wondered how fast you got through the game cause i just started it. Anyway, thanks for the reply, i love your videos and wish my review-style was as fluent as yours. Keep up the great work.
you bet. I see 11 other reviews prior to mine with completions so just assuming folks are sitting down and playing hard.
That's why i'm glad we're more likely a small online magazin. Still happy enough to work with all big publishers but with no need to rush. But yeah, Bethesda brought this competition to a whole new level. I'm really up for an early release day review when it's like how MS did it for Gears 4 or Quantum Break and they send it out to us weeks before but Bethesda somehow ruined it for the small reviewers that have a "normal" life in addition.
Because Karak refuses to sleep.
Thanks for the great review, Karak.
I can't wait to get this in my mail...
The art style is still phenomenal !
When you mention bugs / glitches / etc., does this take into account the "day 1" 9Gb patch or not ?
stated in video yes
An excellent analytical review, more informative and entertaining than any of big name gaming site reviews. Keep up the good work!
glad I found this channel also I loved the three leg joke. Usually your jokes are corny but ill give you that one.
appreciate that
If I ever get a boat, I'm calling it "How does she float?" Great review as usual.
lol
haha wow.. this has been the first review/video I have seen from this youtuber, and i can definitely say its an instant subscribe.... Amazing in depth review and I love the wordplay he uses to explain things. Very fun and engaging.... Cant wait to check out some more!
thanks so much mitch
ACG for sure man. Watched a few since this video and i am onboard 110% dude. Keep up the amazing work.
Great review. Very thorough. I've been impressed enough this fall to subscribe. Keep it up.
thanks so much man spread the word
Thanks karak, great as always
you bet
this games badass man; playing it on ps4 right now, its doing stuff ive never seen before in the stealth genre, next level game and definitely worth playing for any fan of stealth i also appreciate the hard difficulty this time around
Grayson Guice I wanna buy the game but does the update or the recent update fixes the framerate
Grayson Guice and what about the frame rate and how stable is it
on ps4 its always at 30 and doesnt drop
Just finished my GOTY stuff and sent a shoutout to you for being the only reviewer I saw mention the slide move. Hopefully at least one of the 5 or so people that actually watch it will come your way!
Ugh, I love your reviews so much! You go into crazy detail.
thanks
Now THIS feels like a Bethesda game!
Because it has a lot of bugs?
Rogerio yes
Paul Staker well, they do have a lot of points, but skyrim special edition set the new standard, when they linked fps with the physics engine.
elliot lemon ha ha
there's got to be a reason
I don't think Bethesda would actually purposefully gimp there own game
bethesda didnt make it, arkane studios did.
Allways the first, always the best. This is a hard working man.
thanks bro
I really like your reviews. You're the first reviewer I saw to give sound the attention it deserves, and perhaps the only reviewer ever to mention the importance of directional sound. Good job!
thanks
Really appreciate your timely reviews when no one else has posted theirs and yet the game is already out... Thank you ACG!
Does Dishonoured 2 have new game plus with all your previous unlocks. I think that was something that was missing in Dishonoured.
No. I don't think it needs it though
Totally Markiplier it definitely needs it
Dishonored was never a grind despite not having the NG+ and not having all your already acquired skills...though honestly you replay it for the "fun" factor...so hampering those already acquired skills made it a little tasking...lets just say this is more of an improvement suggestion than a "must" have feature...w3 was able to add NG+ I hope the devs listen more this time...:D
***** oh, I get what you mean
DLA Graphical Not only that but the mission menu is missing. Wtf were they thinking.
Thank god i waited before buying, thanks for the review as usual!
indeed
I used shadow walk in a lot of the game, to win those fights against groups of enemies. Freaking love that ability! The gameplay and story was everything I was hoping for and more. The performance is seriously lacking though, and I had some problems with the negative mouse acceleration. I agree with the recommendation; waiting for updates and fixes is ideal. Shame to see such a good game held back by terrible performance issues (and even some that may even find the game unplayable).
I really love the fact you uploaded the video in 1440p, great stuff!
Technical issues aside this is one of the best stealth games ever made. I played on PC and it is terribly optimized, running at medium settings with questionable frame rates sometimes dropping to 20 fps, when most modern games run at 60 fps nearly maxed out on my machine. I also had a lot of weird sound bugs with sound cutting in and out depending on where I was facing and volumes glitching out relative to their location. However despite this, the level design, challenge, immersion and varied skill sets made this an incredible game in my eyes. This would be one of the best games in recent memory had it been released in a better state. Still one of my favourite stealth games and a big improvement on Dishonoured 1 in my eyes.
man acg reviews are so good
thanks
As soon as the main title screen music started to playI thought of Dexter and some further research confirmed that Daniel Licht did compose this game which is pretty cool
there you go
wonderful review. love the style you have when making reviews.
thanks
I really wanted to preorder this game, but I waited for your review, thanks man!
I didn't want to watch bc spoilers. I've paid ZERO attention to this game. I haven't watched a single trailer. I LOVED the first game. Whats ACG's verdict?
"Wait for a sale."
Thanks!
"Wait for a sale until technic problems are fixed"
Was waiting for this to make my decision, and I guess I'll wait. Performance issues frustrate me to no end. Thanks!
Ethan Richardson I have it and I have 0 performance issues
CrashingCoyote On ps4, xbox or pc?
if you own a PC then you might have to wait until patches roll out but if you are planning on getting for the consoles, buy it asap!
Seems more and more likely unless it's an online game you gotta play with your friends, it's just better to wait (often until the GOTY/Complete edition... because then you end up with all the DLC content and tons of time for them to patch the game to full functionality.)
Sure you usually gotta wait a year, but damn there are so many great games (despite issues) constantly coming out over the last few years its not that hard to do once you get in the pattern of purchasing that way.
I love the channel. love the reviews. Keep the goodness coming.
thanks man
Another great review, keep it up. Been loving your channel
thanks
On the original ps4, I had little to no issues. The footsteps are kinda misleading but in all honesty I never used them anyways because of dark vision. I had an absolute blast playing it
thats awesome man
ThePartyBoss24 it was shit for me
your reviews are fantastic.
sadly, the PC port is horrific
Amit Kalderon it is , but in consoles it's pretty good , but easily could be fixed , i think this game is pretty good
Don't know how you turned out this review so quickly....well done!
Karak, you are TBE (The Best Ever) on reviews. Just gotta let you know I'm still subbed and watching your vids, even though I don't always comment. That's just me though. Love your channel as always. One of my top favs no doubt. Great review on Dishonored 2, thanks for the heads up on performance issues that know one else has described with your level of details. Just awesome. So much appreciated.
thanks sir
Ok so this is the sequel to one of my all time favourite games so to see it land on PC in such a mess is gutting. If I'm being fair my 980GTX is running it ok until I hit the streets and then it's a laggy mess, even running on lower presets.
Isn't it funny (as in not funny at all) how this is the first big game out since Bethesda removed review copies from their things to do list. Reviewers like your good self Karak would flag all these issues but sadly many people will have rushed in assuming at least Dishonored 2 will be free from problems, right? :S
What I also find astounding is that Bethesda have just posted about the PC issues basically saying 'have you checked the system requirements?' I saw that and winced, obviously a little mushroom cloud just appeared over the steam forums :)
Tech problems aside I'm loving the game, the mission Clockwork Mansion especially is just exquisite. Anyways, cheers for getting your review out so fast Karak, I'm sure you will save people lots of money.
Rigged for Epic your the second person in 10 comments that said this was running like shit on a 980. Wtf? I mean seriously wtf. There isn't an excuse for this shit.
man this sucks
Corey Lindgren They have said a patch is in the works so we shall see what they come up with. I still think Bethesda have come across almost in denial about this, yet the way I see it they must have known about these problems before release.
+Rigged for Epic the thing is, if you were careful like me you could have known about this in advance. The system requirements were a big red flag that something was wrong.
I review PC games so I need to get the game anyway but I take your point about the system requirements being a sign. I have to say though, from a dev like Arkane this caught me off guard being their so well versed in PC development.
How does it run on your rig?
3:28 That guy just jumped 18 steps of stairs to kill you. HAHAHA wow they really want you dead!
I liked the rating, definitely waiting for sale. That's most games for me since there are so many coming out.
plz also give reviews of game after patch up it would be realy helpful
Yo ACG, you make awesome reviews man, i only go to your channel now for legit reviews before i buy. Thank you.
thanks
Really feel bad that they fucked up the PC version of the game..why couldn't they just either use the engine they did for Dis 1 or ID TECH 6 (like Doom was)..makes no damn sense.
The red flags by Bethesda withholding the review copies were because of this. I doubt they will be able to fix this port with just a patch, but here's hoping because I LOVED Dishonored 1 and there's a good game underneath the hood here...but bad performance can ruin it big time for me (like it did in Mafia 3 with constant crashes and low fps).
Thanks for the review Karak! I'm prolly gonna play Tyranny first and wait for patch on Dis 2 (it's coming tomorrow for me from the retailer).
Darkholow you can't compare the flaws of mafia 3 to this. I have both and mafia doesn't even feel like a finished game. It probably needed years of polish.

I bought Mafia 3 and slogged through all of those damned rackets to get to the good parts of the game, but in the end it wasn't worth it because the performance problems killed all my hype for it...and this is coming from a massive Mafia fan.
Constant crashes that impeded me from finishing side missions and awful performance that I was forced to play with everything on low (ON A DAMNED 980) really soured me on the game. The repetitive gameplay loop was such a bore to go through, but since I bought it off a 3rd party site (GMG) I couldn't refund it.
Darkholow you had to play on low on a 980 wtf?
Corey Lindgren
Yup and I would still get 45fps during driving sections in the open world at sub 1080p resolution.
I didnt know mafia was that bad on a 980...oh well just finished it yesterday...playing on a 1070 btw... I came from a gaming laptop then transitioned into desktop (770M ---> 1070) so you can say that Im pretty good in tolerating frame rate dips...mafia 3 on a 1070 is like 60fps to 44fps recognizable but very playable...what I hated about mafia 3 is being too "cutscene reliant" the story was okay...actually it made me quite sentimental on the whole "you'll feel empty despite killing big bad boss bla bla" but the replayability and gameplay is too bland for me...basically what Im saying is the performance didnt kill all my hype its the gameplay itself then again thats my opinion on that game...
I hope this isnt the case in Dishonored 2...I can tolerate frame rate dips maybe from 44-45ish - 60 is ok not ideal but ok...
Bugthesda released a bug infested game? Color me surprised.
Not developed by Bethesda only published. Last time I checked Doom wasn't buggy
The Developer is Arkane Studios.
lol
Great vid-just one question: how do you play these games so quickly?
Wow! Your reviews are the best!!! Touching every aspect.. that's how a proper review should be done! Thank you!
thanks sir
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who cringed at the beginning scene
ya so odd
Michael Brown Yeah pretty terrible storytelling if you ask me, seems like this game was rushed to come out in 2016.
what the fuck happened to bethesda??! there was a time where i could say they made the best games hands down. what the fuck?
loved your review. all the verbal clowning makes sense (with killer references) and your format works amazingly well with your examples. love this channel!
thanks
Thank you for another informative in depth review. I'm still waiting for my Karak Krate.
lol
I'm so excited!
I am as well. And I just can't hide it!
bighollywoodproducer You got it!
I'm actually about to lose control!
bighollywoodproducer You think you like it?
I had already decided I wasn't going to buy it for a whole year because there's bound to be a ton of DLC and for the simple fact that Bethesda isn't being a very consumer friendly publisher. If I had any doubt left, your review has removed it completely. Thanks again
Nicolas De Raedt dishonered 1 had three dlc how do you figure this is gonna have more your overly pestimistic
Lee Worley Fallout had a ton of worthless DLC and besides, I don't like waiting for story DLC in a singleplayer game and given that the game is a buggy mess at the moment, I'd say I'm quite happy I haven't bought it yet
Nicolas De Raedt but if the game keeps the amazing gameplay from the original its worth a buy even if it has useless dlc just dont buy the useless dlc and only buy the good ones
Lee Worley I'm in no rush to buy. If I wait a year, I get the the year one edition, or at least a massive discount
Nicolas De Raedt if you want to support a good dev team this yeat than Respawn is your man. they made titanfall 2 and have said all dlc and future content is free and their approach to patch notes is very interesting. also Rainbow six Siege is a good game as well.
First review Ive seen of yours, I appreciate the work you put in. I was waiting to see a decent in depth look at this game before I asked for it (my bday was 2 days ago, my family still likes to get me a game for a gift because its one thing we did since childhood) Im sad this game is not as good as I wanted it to be, but Im glad I know. So thank you for the time and effort you put into the video :)
thanks sir
Hey ACG love your channel. always wondered, do you buy all 3 versions to test frame rate and such?
I do. Or I buy 2 and borrow one from a friend who has the same source. That kind of thing
lol
