Dishonored leaves the player a lot of choices, the first and foremost being whether to play it stealthy and (mostly) non-lethal on Low Chaos or to go in guns blazing and with a lot of casualties on High Chaos. Since the level of Chaos affects the world itself, you better choose wisely. I absolutely adore … More Dishonored 2 – Three Ways to Play
First of all, I miss Aiden Pearce. Which is why, after having finished WATCH_DOGS 2, I promptly returned to Chicago, police chases and gangster shoot-outs. Don’t get me wrong, WATCH_DOGS 2 is a highly entertaining open world game. It also does a lot of things better than its predecessor. But it still is one of … More WATCH_DOGS 2 – Worth the bucks?
Hey, folks, Welcome to 2017 and welcome to another of my favorite missions! For starters, Deus Ex: Human Revolution remains one of my most favorite games to date and just playing this mission again felt so awesome! Now, why this game? As previously mentioned it is one of my favorites. What I like most are … More Favorite Mission Three – The mother of infiltration missions in Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Christmas is just around the corner and so I recently decided to prowl the aisles of my trusted electronics store to see which games to add to my wishlist. I found two, actually, The Ezio Collection and The Last Guardian, but what really caught my eye was the fact that prices for WATCH_DOGS 2 and … More Epic Fails or What’s up with sales for WATCH_DOGS 2, Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided?
Usually, when I’m taking my car for a ride, which does not happen all that often, there’s a best-of-compilation of The Glitch Mob playing. For longer trips of, say, four to seven hours, I connect my mp3-player, which features the best playlist ever for long hours spent alone in my cute little convertible. The ultimate … More Ultimate car playlist
There is something comforting in family as well as in familiarity, though more so in family. In Dishonored, Princess Emily Kaldwin’s family is somewhat dysfuncional. Her mother, the Empress Jessamine and de facto ruler, is murdered when she is ten and her father, Jessamine’s bodyguard and spymaster Corvo Attano, wanted for killing her. Of course, … More Dishonored 2: The Joys of High and Low Chaos
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
Pritchard is back! But that is not the only good news about Deus Ex: Mankind Divided‘s first DLC, System Rift. Hackers beware! I am not sure what it is exactly that Adam Jensen thinks of hackers, but, fact is, he and they don’t get along. There’s some bad vibes there. Baaad vibes. The very first … More Deus Ex: Mankind Divided – System Rift DLC
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
