This particularly stood out to me:

Ghosting levels is a big part of Dishonored’s expert-level stealth gameplay. Though each mission is an assassination, it’s possible to make your targets ‘disappear’ without killing them. The example Smith and Colantonio gave was having one target captured and sent as a slave to one of his own mines for the rest of his life. These are difficult to accomplish, and require a thorough exploration of the level and eavesdropping on conversations. Take the time, however, and it’s possible to complete Dishonored without taking a single life.

:awesome:

Time to start spending hours to get rid of someone you could had killed in seconds.

I love a challenge!

While that kind of openness and non-linearity is very intriguing and compelling, it’s usually way too complex and just flies over my head even when I try to pursue it.

But it sounds quite neat and my interest in this game just keeps going.

First proper gameplay trailer. Man, I need this game.

[Eric_Fong]

It is like hitman when you said open place assassination.

[mankyman6]

It looks beautiful.

I cannot wait to caress it with my unworthy phalanges.

[brokenfridgehinge]

Oh my god, that trailer was amazing. I cannot fucking wait for this game!

[ChancyWancy]

That song in the trailer fit so damn good. This game better deliver.

[Kairouseki]

Holy aliasing Batman!

Game looks awesome though. I hope there’s a playthrough at E3.

[Bloodshot]

Holy shit I want

Yeah, for some reason game companies usually only show off the console footage during the ad campaigns. Skyrim was the same way, IIRC.

Also, this was just posted on their official forum:

@Gstaff

Dishonored has extensive PC settings. The team at Arkane has put extensive time into this (PC-specific UI with customizable shortcuts, customizable FOV, a whole bunch of UI elements that can be toggled on/off.)

Even with the console releases, we think you’ll be impressed by the # of settings you can adjust.

Fuck yeah!

This is such a fucking great year for entertainment

[Maxey]

Now if only Bethesda Games Studios would take the hint…

[Kairouseki]

First Rockstar releases a near perfect PC version of a game and this game seems to be doing the same thing. Me likey.

[ChancyWancy]

Wasn’t 2011 one of the best years (as far as sales go) for PC gaming? Maybe that sparked an interest between developers to put a better polish onto their PC ports.

[xalener]

2011’s pc craze was kinda kicked off with Crysis 2, which had such a backlash against all ports ever that devs kinda had to take notice. It’s weird, because it wasn’t even the worst PC port. It’s just that it was “meh” after the first one being the PC poster child [lol].

[G-Rona]

Holy balls, that was awesome. Can’t wait.

[gibbelin]

The devs keep posting all the good features on the forum. They need to get some of this stuff into a press release for the PC version…

@Sarakyel

Don’t worry: just like the latest Bethesda PC games, Dishonored won’t use GFWL and will be 100% Steamworks.

@Sarakyel

I confirm again: you can lean, and if you’re behind cover, watch while remaining unseen!

Ahhhhh. Awesome, I was getting worried with all of these trailers showing a FOV of “hands embedded in your face” (blegh).
