Any word on when the steam version is supposed to unlock?

[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;37955652]Haha, punny, I just don't like graphics style, it reminds me of Team Fortress 2.[/QUOTE] How? It's way more detailed than TF2 has ever been.

what? I thought it was supposed to come out on the 8th. WTF?

[QUOTE=Kenori;37955762]what? I thought it was supposed to come out on the 8th. WTF?[/QUOTE] Games always release on Tuesday in NA. Unless it's a Nintendo game, or special Friday release.

[QUOTE=Fussy!;37955691]How? It's way more detailed than TF2 has ever been.[/QUOTE] Water colours.

Bah, fucking bullshit.

[QUOTE=Delta616;37955584]You insult and [B][I]dishonor[/I][/B] Viktor Antonov, and all his work in Half-Life 2 for saying such an ignorant thing.[/QUOTE] yea you can really tell he did some of the design work, not a bad thing. [thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20218574/hl2vibe.JPG[/thumb]

[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;37955787]Water colours.[/QUOTE] Dishonored's art style is Half-Life 2 meets Bioshock. How the fuck can you compare that to TF2. Water colors don't exist in TF2 nor Dishonored. TF2's art style was designed to look like a cartoon, where dishonored has no cartoon art style. Just a slight cel-shaded overlay.

[QUOTE=Delta616;37955820]Dishonored's art style is Half-Life 2 meets Bioshock. How the fuck can you compare that to TF2.[/QUOTE] he means the textures have a watercolor style instead of a photorealistic style. personally Ii think the watercolor style can be great. Apparently some people hate it.

[editline]8th October 2012[/editline] Basically I don't feel like I can take it serious with the art style.[/QUOTE] Why did you pre-order it then in the first place if you don't like the art style, it's not like it's pulled a Borderlands and changed radically during the development, it's always looked this way.

Seems a silly thing to cancel a pre-order over.

[QUOTE=Kirbyfactor;37956272]Playing a game for the art style is like watching porn for the story.[/QUOTE] lmao yeah right because if TF2 looked like BF3 it wouldn't change your opinion strongly about the game...

Why? I'm not macro spamming. Thats legitimately how I feel about that idea. Its a great idea, and something that should be considered WAY more. Personally I find the artstyle of Dishonored (at least from what I've seen of it) to be pretty decent. It fits in a sort of Bioshock-ish style, which works well with the steampunk design they're going for.

[QUOTE=silentjubjub;37955169]Fuck me, why did I have to order from the one digital distributor that hasn't received keys yet? I wonder what GMG did to piss off Bethesda[/QUOTE] I don't mind waiting a little longer if it means getting it $15 cheaper.

[QUOTE=Delta616;37955688][t]http://cdnstatic.bethsoft.com/dishonored.com/img/slides/pistolshotagainstweepers.large.jpg[/t] [t]http://cdn.steampowered.com/v/gfx/apps/440/0000002578.1920x1080.jpg?t=1345487884[/t] Yeah, they totally look similar.[/QUOTE] but you get what he's saying at least When exposed to the light of day especially, it looks reminiscent of TF2 but with a more serious, desaturated, and more realistically proportional tone but still noticeably cartoony. Like if you took the artstyle of TF2 and Bioshock and combined them: Dishonored is probably what'd you get.

This game was under my radar for a long time. Now all the reviews and footage is out, this looks really pretty good. It would be nice if it was a bit longer though (20 hours as opposed to 12 or something like that).

I still hope they add a patch for 90+ fov, 90 is the bare minimum I can play at before getting physically ill, while I prefer over 100.

[QUOTE=thisispain;37956277]lmao yeah right because if TF2 looked like BF3 it wouldn't change your opinion strongly about the game...[/QUOTE] Exactly. Case in point: Fuse/Overstrike [editline]8th October 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=ac/14;37955818]yea you can really tell he did some of the design work, not a bad thing. [thumb]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20218574/hl2vibe.JPG[/thumb][/QUOTE] He had full involvement in practically all aspects of the art. In HL2 he merely designed C17 and some combine tech, mostly architectural but in this he was able to take a director role and influence the rest of the designs. I'm glad they allowed him to take on that role, he's got some fantastic works and I hope that at some point he helps to write as well as design the visuals.

Even if you ignore the whole steampunk aspect the character design reminds me a lot of Bioshock. The environments look like Bioshock mixed with Half Life and I think they look great. I also enjoy the colour palette personally. I'm going to be spoiled for choice when both this and XCom unlock on the 12th.

Am I the only one bothered by the apparent lack of color? There's way too much grayish blue to it. That wouldn't be so bad if other colors actually stood out when they are present. Look at the blood, it's almost straight gray. I'm all for setting the mood in a game, but just making everything gray and desaturated just makes the visuals uninteresting.
