Dishonored Really is an Amazing Gaming Experience.

I haven't had more fun playing a game in a while, probably since Skyrim. But Dishonored is an excellent videogame, for many reasons. It's style and graphics are just so attractive to me. The setting(That steampunk, dystopian setting and atmosphere is utterly sublime.), background, lore and plot are absolutely intriguing and very interesting. The gameplay is spot on, very functional while still very fun to play. Everything is just so good about this title. The objectives, tasks, side options, level design, writing, story; Practically Everything! I was literally smiling from start to finish while playing this game, a feat that is not very easily accomplished. I can go on and on about many of the more subtle things, but that would get redundant. Nonetheless, it is truly an excellent experience, one that I would recommend to most anybody who enjoys gaming and one that should not go unplayed by anyone who considers themself a fan of stealth games. While I will admit the game is far from perfect, it comes real close to being a masterpiece. I just want to say thank you to Arkane Studios and Bethesda, a job certainly well done! If there were one main gripe i had with the game, its that it was too short; as in, the story did not feel rushed or shortened or whatever, only it is that i wish there would have been more missions to accomplish, more targets to eliminate. In any case, I just felt like sharing my opinion. If anyone has any input of the more specific things that they liked in this game, please feel free to add your input into the conversation.

Yeah, I am on the last "chapter" and finding myself kinda bummed, knowing I am at the end game, since it has been a fun, intense experience. I found that I really got into trying not to get detected (I did not get a perfect ghost run by any stretch, but I mostly did pretty good, and got through the game without causing utter mayhem. Left a few bodies in my wake though. The weepers kind of freak me out and have suprised me a time or too, and I get all stabby stabby instead of trying to get away. Heh.)

I've just completed my 7th playthrough and remarkably still found new ways to complete my goals! Well done to all at Arkane for creating a modern classic.
