If you've seen game walkthroughs, you'll understand that these "lives" represent attempts at a game level. Litteraly, the writing style is chosen to show how easy it is to get warped into the game reality, show how captivating the story and gameplay is.

I hate what's left when you strip all the journalism away from journalism.
It's quite clearly a preview of the many ways you can attempt a single level of dishonored.
I'm disappointed in you though Joe: why'd you feel the need to kill the guards anyway? Garrett would be most unimpressed.

Yeah, I understand - and I'm usually not a fan of this sort of 'new games journalism' either. On the other hand, I've written about Dishonored and my thoughts on it in other ways before and wanted to try something different. I also wanted to answer the people who ask 'How flexible is the game?'
Seriously though, the game sounds like it is going to be GOTY. Can't wait.
What sort of hardware are we going to need to max it out? I see multi platform - is that likely to be DX9? Similar to Skyrim. Shots look good, but you know what we're all like. Moar candy!

It certainly looks like tweaked Gamebryo engine to me. I'd be surprised if its at all difficult to run. As I understand it the world isnt even that open so I would imagine it'll run better than skyrim in most cases.
Can't wait for release though, this will probably be my first break from GW2
just make thief again. not part 4.. thief!
im also excited for dishonored but i might not like the magic stuff as much. want a normal game without special powers. wait that was thief :'-(

I need to update my 460gtx at some point but have been pretty happy with its performance in Skyrim, so it may not be necessary.
Weight off.... me thinks
Strip the place down to its foundations while not a single guard notices....
Seriously want to play some Thief now
