Welcome to the second part of Whatchaa.com's best and worst of 2017 series! Now, I don't think that a game necessarily needs a powerful nemesis for it to be a good game (The Last of Us comes to mind).

Dishonored: Death of the Outsider or To die or not to die
The games I start playing and then end up finishing in more or less one really, really long session are rare. The driving factor usually is curiosity. I simply want to find out what happens next. Not necessarily because the story is so gripping, or emotional, as was most recently the case with Hellblade-Senua's Sacrifice. … Continue reading Dishonored: Death of the Outsider or To die or not to die

Since the level of Chaos affects the world itself, you better choose wisely. I absolutely adore … Continue reading Dishonored 2 – Three Ways to Play
Epic Fails or What’s up with sales for WATCH_DOGS 2, Dishonored 2 and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided?
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.

Dishonored 2: The Joys of High and Low Chaos
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, … Continue reading Dishonored 2: The Joys of High and Low Chaos

So, what are you all excited about? I know what I'd like to see: More of Deus Ex-Mankind Divided, of course. Have you paid a visit to Augware yet?
