Arkane Dishonored 2 - Emily and Corvo's Serkonan Vacation

[His Majesty]

Looks good. Had fun with Dishonored, hope they don't fuck up too much.

Looks like ass. Is Viktor Antonov working on this game? Doesn't look like it from what I'm seeing. I was hoping for more Daud prequel stuff but I suppose he was too popular and too likable just like Garrett so they have to flush him down the toilet. The Corvo/Emily dual protagonists seems like a really dumb idea, what sort of hack writer came up with this shit? Taking a dump on the endings from the first game just for this is just... And they won't get different levels either, what a complete waste.

also with two new writers (Cara Eliison

Dropped. Harvey has fucking lost it.

 

[Infinitron]

Daud is overrated tho

Female protagonist that walks, talks, and looks just like a man. Wow, so progressive.

 

[Castanova]

Dishonored 1 was overrated. I doubt the second one will be much different.

 

[A horse of course]

Female protagonist that walks, talks, and looks just like a man. Wow, so progressive.

In fairness, that's always been the franchise's art direction, not bull-dyke escapism.

 

[Lios]

Pity Tyvia is out, was horny for some snow stealthing and mutant polar bear throat cutting while flooded by bearded degenerates. Here's hoping for a Dishonored 3 Tyvia.

That being said mediterranean isles of lust and dictatorship sounds promising if not a little bit bland.

Shhh, no need to shill just yet, can't even pre-order the game atm. I could make the point that the walking brick that was Corvo is hardly a character at all and make arguments as to why Daud is good but I think you get your doritos based on postcount so nah.

They do seem to have warped her face Mirror's Edge reboot style though. It's hard to put your finger on it. Saw the trailer without sound first and didn't think it was her. She looks like a quasi-asian womyn pumped full of testosterone now. Just a reminder of what she looked like in the first game:

Yeah, that would have been neat.

My opinion of Daud is nothing new, Xu Fugui: http://www.rpgcodex.net/forums/inde...d-arkanes-new-game.61532/page-69#post-3126448

Is Viktor Antonov working on this game?

Dishonored 2 art director is now Sebastien Mitton - no longer Viktor Antonov

Correction:

@RPGCodex seb was art director of dis1 too - viktor was visual design director

 

[Infinitron]

So...is there a new "visual design director" now?

 

[Morgoth]

I like the "new" art style, if the CG trailer is any give-away for the actual in-game direction.

Also, fuck all the Emily haters. What, do you wanna play a chubby smiling doll instead?

Indeed, in no small part due to the engine of the original being unable to render skirts or dresses (every female in game is wearing pants or otherwise has legs exposed)

Looks like a pissed Justin Bieber though...

I think that was Antonov's role specifically.

Here we go: https://twitter.com/Harvey1966/status/610471099957137408

@RPGCodex viktor and seb are still close

 

[Infinitron]

I guess what he's trying to say there is "No, but Seb will still do the things the Antonov way".

You might be on to something.

 

[Riskbreaker]

There is nothing really offensive 'bout that trailer.
In any case, I really enjoyed original Dishonored & DLC, and I loved both Arx and Dark Messiah. Arkane is yet to make a bad game.
Gonna pre-order the shit outta this.

Dropped. Harvey has fucking lost it.

Hopefully she's there purely for show and won't have any major influence on teh story and characters.

 

[DeepOcean]

The buildings and the way the guards dress remind me alot of colonial era Europe. There are some Thief The Metal Age vibes on that mansion with the robots that I like too. Arkane is the only developer that work for Bethesda that know what they are doing. Funny, Anita Sarkeesian is complaining the game doesn't has an exclusive female lead, you know... if Arkane was trying to appeal to the SJW by making Emily a playable character they really don't understand how the SJW really work. They only make money if there is controversy and the only thing they truly care is money so there will be no end to their bitching even if they make Emily a woman that doesn't need a man dyke, they will find something else to complain about to make money.

 

[Somberlain]

This is the only upcoming game I'm interested in. Not too keen on a female protagonist but at least it's Emily and not some new-to-the-series strong independent womynz who needs no help from a man.

 

[Jedi Exile]

Dunno why everybody is so excited about this. Looks like another shitty console action game.

B-b-but, the tropical setting! It's Crysis!
