Now on twitter!

   Just in case anyone is interested, Gamer's Oracle is now on twitter.  Link is at the bottom!  I have never been a fan of twitter, which is why I took so long to make an account.  I must admit it's not that bad.  It's definitely more active than Facebook, and you feel more connected to people and things you care about.  Which is mostly gaming related, for me.  So if it works out I might end up shutting down the Gamer's Oracle Facebook page.  Oh and Happy Thanksgiving!  Don't stuff yourselves too much!   ;)

Dishonored first impressions

 

 I know I said I wasn't going to get it.  But the original Dishonored is one of my top ten games, so I couldn't resist.  I still have the Tarot deck from pre-ordering the first one!  So far I've done two and a bit chapters, and I couldn't be happier.  The graphics are gorgeous.  The game takes place in Karnaca, which fans of the first game should be familiar with.  We didn't get to go there but it was mentioned quite a bit.  The island setting is a nice change from the somewhat dreary Dunwall.

   The game gives you the freedom to play anyway you want.  You can either play as Corvo, the protagonist from the first game, or his daughter Emily.  Who is the Empress of the Isles.  I picked Corvo, because even though I happen to be a female that doesn't mean I want to play one in a video game all of the time.  Nice of them to give us a choice though.
   You can also choose how to play the game: full on stealth or shoot-em up.  I prefer to go full stealth, but some people will prefer to just run in and shoot anything that moves.  There's multiple paths and ways to complete your objective.  And you can upgrade powers that will support your style of play; there's plenty of choices for both types of players.  Just keep in mind if you decide to go the shoot-em up (high chaos) route you will get the crappy ending.  I plan to play through both ways, just because it's that good of a game.  Seriously if you plan on buying one more game this year, make it this one.  It's worth it, trust me.
