Waited a while to play this game due to the frame issue talk. When I started playing it it played fine. While I noticed some miniscular frame-dips in specific areas, the majority of the game played smoothly. I was playing on the bestestest settings with a GTX 1060 and an i5-6500 CPU, 16GB RAM.

As for the actual gameplay I loved it. I was already a fan of how Dishonored (1) played. The puzzles were good, the fact that you have all these choices in terms of how you want to complete the mission is great. The atmosphere is fitting, soundtrack makes it quite immersive. Graphics and meshes look good, even when I could notice some clipping here and there when characters were moving.

Something odd I noticed was that you would occasionally just randomly be spotted, even when you shouldn't have been spotted. Another thing is that characters will occasionally start dialogue with you when you are (for example) one level underneath them in a building.
Occasionally I would get to places where I suppose I "shouldn't" have gone, making me unable to progress in that direction, even when I should have been able to in terms of in-game ability.

Overall I found this game to be very enjoyable. You have a great amount of space to be sneaky up high and get past enemies. You have a nice variety of enemies; the game also doesn't hold your hand to explain to you what each enemy's abilities are (which I personally think is very good, you just figure it out on your own). The objectives are interesting. The maps themselves hide a bunch of interesting things and for those who go out of their way to find everything this is really great.

Another cool thing is that you have two characters to choose from in the beginning, which adds some re-playability in addition to the different chaos-level completions. So needless to say I will be replaying this game at least once. Possibly twice down the line. I wonder what sort of DLC will be made for this game. <3
