If you played the first Dishonored then this will feel very familiar to you. I find overall that I can pretty much complete everything by simply sneaking around and using blink - much as I did in the first game (with some other abilities thrown in on occasion just for variety). This is an evolution in gameplay (not a dramatic revolution) although there are some nice improvements overall:



> Graphics have been enhanced as you would expect from the previous installment.

> There are new enhancements to abilities if you're playing as Corvo (and entirely new abilities if you're playing as Emily.)

> The world of Karnaca is brighter than the dark, gritty world of the first game.

> The levels are generally much larger than they were in the first game with lots to explore - but levels are still linear overall. This is not an open world game which would allow you to find quests and complete them at your leisure.



Personally, I enjoy the game quite a bit, but even so I'll get bored if I play it for a long time. I'll typically do a level or two at a sitting and come back later. Of course, I'm a bit of a completionist so I'm typically exploring every nook and cranny of each level which can take quite a while given the size of the levels.
