Dishonored Wiki

Post » Sat May 12, 2012 3:58 am

Hello everyone,
A month or so ago, I created a wiki for Dishonored. For those of you that don't know what a wiki is, it is essientally a user generated and maintained "encyclopedia" of sorts, based on a specific subject. It's kind of like Wikipedia, but much more user friendly, accurate, and much more detailed. The problem is, so far I haven't had any traffic or edits on the website. That's where you guys come in. For some reason, I hadn't thought of going on the Dishonored website. I think this is the best place to find people who are excited about Dishonored! So come to the wiki, check it out, or edit it. Here's the link:
http://dishonored.wikia.com/wiki/Dishonored_Wiki
So come on by, tell your friends who are (hopefully) excited about Dishonored, and get the word out! Help expand the wiki as much as you can!

Thank You,
Makatak7

It's kind of like Wikipedia, but much more user friendly, accurate, and much more detailed. If you still don't get it, check out the Call of Duty Wiki (http://callofduty.wikia.com/wiki/Call_of_Duty_Wiki). The problem is, so far I haven't had any traffic or edits on the website.

On the main page someone should edit in this


As it is written now it sounds like Viktor is ripping off Half Life when in fact he is one of the creators of city 17, the combine and the architecture in Half Life 2.


"Dishonored is a first person stealth-action game developed by Arkane Studios, creators of Arx Fatalis and Dark Messiah of Might & Magic, and Bethesda, creators of games like The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and Fallout 3. The project is headed by Harvey Smith, creator of Theif and Deus Ex, and Raf Colantonio, the founder of Arkane Studios. Viktor Antonov, the visual design director, who also designed most of the City 17 style ,the combine architecture and technology in Half Life 2 & Half Life 2: Lost Coast , has said that the game has a Lovecraftian feel to it, and draws some of his inspirations from Half-Life 2, at the request of the production team. Besides Half-Life 2 , Viktor said that they got inspiration from books and artwork, as opposed to video games and movies."


Something like that , the wiki needs to show Viktor is also a Half Life 2 visual design creator

I just browsed a bit this wiki, and it definitely looks nice! I hope it will help all of you guys to communicate what IS Dishonored... And I can't wait to see its content grow & evolve ;)

Great idea makatak, and good job! :goodjob:

Thanks to you, I'm working on one for Arx Fatalis. Real-life of course demands a very strict schedule, but it's worth the effort to get the great minds behind Arkane into the google limelight. B)

Wow! Great to hear that you are starting a wiki! I would help out, but I know just about nothing about Arx Fatalis. Good Luck!

We really need more info about Dishonored. Looking at how small this wiki is just drives that point home. I hope to see the wiki expand in the next few months. I'll add to it if I find anything of use.

Reading that Harvey Smith, creator of Thief is involved with Dishonored just made me want this game ten fold..... Thief was, an is still one of the best stealth games ever.

There's some confusion over Harvey Smith's work credits. He clears it up at his website in this post: http://www.witchboy.net/2011/08/22/insert-credit/

The wiki's looking sleek. Good work, makatak.

Also, thanks for including this reassuring line: "Viktor said that they derived inspiration from books and artwork, as opposed to video games and movies."

:twirl:

Apdenton, if you make any more edits, make sure to sign in. Make an account if you don't have one. This way we can see that it is you making the edits.
