I didn’t buy either, but I still feel like the Arkane that built Dishonored is actually an amazing fit for Blade. Sadly I don’t know if that Arkane exists anymore as over 70% of the staff including many veterans left their Austin studio cause they didn’t want to make redfall and didn’t like where things were headed. And Both Dishonored games were a collab effort from the two studios.
Now Lyon is apparently heading this game, not sure if they collaborating with Austin, and the last game they made alone was Death loop which, while mechanically great, had terrible AI and the loop was a poor excuse to turn a 5hr game into a 16hr game, which was really just the premise of the Prey DLC repurposed.
But we’ll just have to wait and see, if they can still nail some buttery mechanics, but fill out their shortcomings in content and AI, I’ll love the hell out of this game, I love blade as a character, from the comics to the films and cartoons he’s badass and I always wanted a game to really pull it off.
