Way Hay and Up the Dishonored E3 Trailer Rises

[Sacman]

Lookin good so far... though we haven't seen a whole lot... not much as far as gameplay... though it looked pretty stylish, but at the expense of possibly interactivity... given how many insta-scripted kills there were... but regardless the setting and art design are fantastic... I just hope Harvey Smith can bring back the superb level design the truly facilitates personal exploration and choice... like in the original Deus Ex...<.<

Also, character animations look a bit stiff... especially that girl who was running...

I was more annoyed at the fact that 'Drunken Sailor' (variation on it anyway) was being done in an American accent. THAT IS NOT HOW IT SHOULD BE SUNG.

You know what, me too. I kept wanting them to go "Er-Lie" rather than just Early

I'm engaged in a similar quest regarding lyrics. I THINK the first verse is:
"What shall we do with the drunken whaler"

The second verse.. I have very little idea. Actually, having watched the trailer. The second verse kicks in at the same time as an image of rats - "Feed him to the hungry rats for dinner"

Third verse - no idea until "and up she rises" which is fairly easy.

The final verse - Slice his skull with a rusty cleaver?

Wish I coulda understood more of the chorus.

The lyrics in the trailer are both modified and in a different order, but many of them remain in some fashion (shave his belly with a rusty razor for instance has been changed to slice his throat with a rusty cleaver).

So it's like if Fable and Half Life had a baby, and then that baby grew up and had a baby with Bioshock, and this game is that baby.

...I'm in.

The open world stealth-action game Dishonored [http://www.amazon.com/Dishonored-Xbox-360/dp/B005C2D2MO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1338564717&sr=8-1] comes out on October 9 in North America and October 12 in Europe for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

I don't think that Dishonored is open world; i seem to remember from an interview that you went directly from level to level, with an interlude at your base to upgrade and purchase things. Admittedly, the levels are massive and open ended, but I think the game's structure is less like Grand Theft Auto and more like Thief, which makes sense when given its heritage.

 

[Susurrus]

Actually - third verse: Way-Hay and up she rises - ought to have been the easiest one.

Guys, this and Bioshock are completely different things. Dishonored is aiming for a Steampunk approach, while Bioshock was Decopunk, a sub genre of Dieselpunk.

I can't tell if you're being serious or not.

If you are, I doubt anyone cares. It looks somewhat like Bioshock, regardless of what kind of punk it is.

...

OT: I continue to be interested in this. It would be nice to see a solid ten-minute chunk of gameplay.

Well I for one appreciate the pedantry. It's nice to see someone actually not be a dick about clarification. And I learned something today. All punk descends from cyberpunk.

Thank you, Raiyan.

Oh, you're most welcome.

 

[imnot]

That looks kinda cool, colour me intrested.

There's a lot of stabbing in this game.

 

[JordanXlord]

This guy really loves stabbing people

he seems like a pleasant Chap

 

[BrionJames]

I'm looking forward to this. It's always nice to see new titles, the gameplay looks interesting and while some of it is Bioshock-esque, this seems more stealth-action then anything else.

They finally updated Thief, my favourite stealth series, & added what admittedly looks like a dash of Bioshock.

I have high hopes for this. If they can give it a good enough plot it should be able to take up where Thief(s) left off.

EDIT: I hope it's not supposed to be set in England, otherwise they spelt 'Dishonoured' wrong.

For those wanting the lyrics this is what I got while listening to it:

what will we do with a drunken whaler
what will we do with a drunken whaler
what will we do with a drunken whaler

way hey and up she rises
way hey and up she rises
way hey and up she rises

stuff him in a sack and throw him over
