havent played the demo and wont (on pc) - but i'd be interested in people's thoughts on this too.

Given how Doom was handled with their absolute kack prerelease pc demo i'm not surprised they've excluded it as a demo this time round for pc.

Yeah,i just ordered it from the playstation app so hopefully its downloaded by the time i get home..

What ive seen so far has impressed me but really need to play it to get a feeling if ill pre-order it or not..(been burned by so many games lately)

Its out next week?

The Specialist

I despised the original so even the fact it's named the same has instantly put me off it. None of the gameplay I've seen so far is grabbing me either.

Played it a bit there, and I enjoyed it. Liked the twist as well, won't pick it up at launch but will definitely get it at some stage.

Is the music cues all over the pace or is it just me?
Sometimes it would kick in (really loud btw) & you'd be nowhere near a mimic or set piece.

Could be to keep you on edge a bit. "Why is there music playing, what's going on?"
I'm just guessing though.

not just you. had it twice too.

cursai

is this the dishonoured engine? Seems like a downgrade too. Did enjoy it though. Very similar too deus ex

bigphil2

Have to say,i really enjoyed the demo,agree that some of the music cues are off but apart from that,i like the story and want to go further into the station.. i reckon ill be picking it up.

No chance i'm touching this till well after launch. No reviews till after release, and their last game (Dishonored 2) was an absolute mess.

Ouch,was great on Ps4 pro (after a couple of patches)

This seems to have solved many of the issues with Dishonored 2 on ps4 anyway,i spent about 2 and a half hours on this demo,just exploring and picking up everything,theres gonna be a lot to do in the full game i reckon,and the powers werent even included on the progression menu..

I get a wiff of System shock 2/Bioshock off it and thats a good thing IMHO

I bought DH2 recently and it was flawless on the PC (for me anyway) played through with the old fella now halfway through with the chick.....It was in bits at launch with memory leaks and other performance issues but its perfect now (again for me)

Well worth the 25 quid or so I paid for it....I preferred the 1st one but its a solid game.

I really liked the 1st prey so deffo gonna grab the demo too.

Temptamperu

While I like the setting and premise the combat (not upgraded) is very sluggish and its a chore on normal difficulty. I think I may wait for a sale in a few months.

Wonda-Boy

Just played the demo there as was said I was not overly impressed....pick it up in 6mths on PC.

gimli2112

Was underwhelmed when I launched it but it kind of grew on me. Think it did I good job with the "I wonder what's in that box in the room I can't get into?"
Probably will pick this up

Captain Chaos

It's good, lots of good potential but combat and movement need alot more polish, like 6 months more.

Were you playing on PS4? Digitalfoundry piece on it mentioned input lag and some other issues not present on the xbox version and that the developers said would be fixed before launch.

I found the Dishonoured 2 console version to be atrocious looking and also have poor performance.
Arklane studios got away with it last year and hardly any of the critics mentioned the issues.

Does this use the same engine? How does the demo perfom / look?

gimli2112

Character movement felt a bit clunky, graphics were functional but not mind blowing.
Didn't feel these issues detracted from the gameplay. Genuinely wanted to explore and find out what was going on.
This is all from messing about for around 40 minutes or less but overall my opinion was positive.

Uses Cryengine as far as I know, think DF mentioned it in their video.

Needs more Hype. Hope this game doesn't let me down.
I Haven't watched anything at all yet nor read any previews. I'm going in cold.

*Edit* Apparently contains spoilers so viewers beware (Why do marketing teams do this??!)

Grahamer666

Thinking of getting this myself. Haven't read or watched anything on it. It's only €31 on cdkeys and that includes the DLC. Surely worth a punt.

question for the PC

Will this have 3400 x 1440 21:9 ?

It's powered by cryengine as someone mentioned above. Tried to find info on scalability and resolution bit got nothing but you could base it on another cryengine game as a start point.
If you are getting pc I'd hold off for a few days after launch
Arkane seem to have a bad history with launch of PC ports
