Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, Dishonored 2‘s first story-DLC, which was announced during E3 2017 and coming in September, is the DLC everyone who played the main game saw coming from miles away. You did not even have to have played the two story-DLCs of the first game with assassin Daud as the main protagonist. … More Give Me More Story (DLC)
Mirror’s Edge Catalyst, which was published in 2016, is the first reboot I have played where I have also played the original, Mirror’s Edge (2008). Now, while the reboot of TV-franchises and movies over in Hollywood may suggest otherwise, reboots are not a new phenomenon. Usually, reboots serve one specific purpose: to cater to an … More Are reboots a good thing? With Mirror’s Edge the answer is yes and no
I don’t like shooters. That was, for a very long time, something I firmly believed. The main reason for that was not necessarily that I really suck at shooting, which I usually do, but had more to do with the fact that I find picking off targets arcade style incredibly boring. There are a very … More SNIPER ELITE – A Stealth-Survival-Shooter, I think. And pretty awesome.
So, in case you were wondering what I’ve been up to these past few days, I actually did a lot last week and tried a few games I had wanted to try out for ages. Also, I played the For Honor Beta-version. Destiny First, I finally started playing Destiny on my PS3, only to find … More A very pleasant weekend in games

Since the level of Chaos affects the world itself, you better choose wisely. I absolutely adore … More Dishonored 2 – Three Ways to Play
This is the second of my favorite missions, straight off Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. As I have already elaborated, this game was not quite what I expected. That is not, mind you, a bad thing per se. The story left the player adrift, forced them to find their own approach, their own inspiration and motivation, … More Favorite Mission Two – Claiming Jurisdiction
I swore to myself that I would be buying only one more game this year. Actually, I already preordered that game, Dishonored 2, which will be released in November. But then, while waiting for the Deus Ex: Mankind Divided DLC System Rift to come out, I bought WATCH_DOGS, an open world action RPG set in … More How I got hooked on WATCH_DOGS
So I promised to publish my first favorite mission somewhere during the first week of October, but unfortunately there was lots to do at work and also, I got totally hooked on Watch Dogs (That story! The hacking! That soundtrack!) and didn’t really play anything else these past days. Still, here it is, finally, one of … More Favorite Mission One – Hopeless Romantic
I’ve decided to do a series about my favorite missions and how I like to beat them. Favorite missions are those missions I like to play over and over again, for various reasons. Some for the thrill, or the possibilities, others for the romance, and some for both. These missions feel comfortable, somehow, like a … More New series: Favorite missions
The beginning and the ending of any story are pretty much the trickiest parts to write. While the beginning needs to draw viewers, readers, listeners or players deeply into the tale, the ending has to see them off with a sense of closure. A happy ending is never a must, I feel. And some stories … More About endings
