Every game they made after Dishonored 2 was total shit. The company died a long time ago.

Arkane Lyon didn't make Redfall, and even if it was inferior to Dishonored, Deathloop was still a good game.

>>750236165
>Deathloop was still a good game
The lack of difficulty options for the sake of multiplayer compatibility resulted in the game being braindead easy.
Not being able to break the loop without precisely following the story is absolute horseshit. Certain puzzles have solutions that the player isn't allowed to enter until the story permits you. You have to just follow the quests you're given and let the game solve them for you.
It's disappointing.
>>
Arkane's entire shtick was "let's make LGS games but with mass appeal"
Then they go flood them with niggers and dykes and other such freaks
That's what irritates me the most about them, they were perfectly willing to compromise old great LGS game design for ADHD dudebros while at the same time flooding it with ugly woke nuclear waste
How did these retards ever make something as cool as Dark Messiah
>>
>>750237952
Yeah, and all of that after the Mooncrush dlc - what the hell were they thinking

>>750238202
Dykes and store aunties are the current mandate, anon. Every western game has had them since 2014.

Only Arkane game I ever played was dishonored 1 and that game was absolutely raped by retarded playtesters.

Different studio entirely, that's what.
Arkane Lyon made Dishonored 2, Death of the Outsider, Deathloop and fucking Wolfenstein Youngblood.
Not exactly a great track record.

All these fucking studios haven't produced a game since the 360 eta, they're lucky covid came along and extended their shitty shelf life by a few years. They should've gone out of business almost a decade ago.

They haven't made a good game in almost 15 years.
Once again, I am astounded at how long big studios are able to limp along despite making nothing but garbage.
I think the market was so good up to this point that basically anybody could survive in it, but now that the entire economy - and particularly the electronics in industry - is shitting the bed, they're dying off en masse.
Don't get it twisted though, this isn't a good thing. All it means is further consolidation. Even if [studio you don't like] dies, it's not like [gigacorp X, Y or Z] is going to start making games you like all of a sudden. It's the opposite. Shit like this only makes the problems worse.

its been 10 years since dishonored 2,

its time to close them down

imagine dishonored 2, but take away half the spells, remove map variety, remove sneaking, and remove 90% enemy variety so there is now one enemy, a guy with gun/stick

its shit

1960-70s Dishonored.
That's basically it. The entire time loop mechanic is just a story contrivance and has no relevance to the actual gameplay. The hints at blaxploitation themes are never commited to and were a big missed opportunity.
But it's still a Dishonored game literally, ending spoiler.

It's not worth playing, a 6 hour run that recycles a bunch of shit from Dishonored 1 and 2 and slapped new assets over them. The only actually new gameplay you get is the dark souls invasion thing where you play as the girl trying to stop the guy from beating the game.
You can tell that the game was shat out quickly and was only meant to be a quick flip to fill in the gap Arkane had between Dishonored 2 and whatever got cancelled once they were acquired by Microcock, but because Sony payed for timed exclusivity and game journos could not shut the fuck up about Sweet Baby's "contributions" it got blown up in marketing.
I would only recommend it if you got it for at least 90% off, but at that point you'd have to be desperate to play more Arkane games.
