Dishonored 2 vs Gone Home
Dishonored 2
Dishonored 2 lets you reprise your role as THE supernatural assassin but this time around, the game brings you to the once-amazing coastal city of Karnaca, where an otherworldly being has usurped Empress Emily Kaldwin's throne, throwing the fate of the Isles off-balance. The gameplay in Dishonored 2 has been greatly improved with the new Mark of the Outsider and a whole myriad of new powers along with a much advanced bonecharm crafting and upgrade trees, weapons and gadgets as well. Similar to the previous game, your actions during a mission will change the world around you and often results in different outcomes.Dishonored 2 was unfortunately plagued with performance issues during its release, and hence, the game has been overlooked by many. However, if you can forgive the downsides which are pretty much rectified over time with patches, the game is definitely a step-up from the original and is worth every cent you spent in buying it.
Gone Home
Gone Home is a story-rich, point-and-click adventure game where you find your childhood home devoid of life after returning from a year abroad. The mystery of it all sets you off on an investigate mode as you examine clues and uncover what had happened to your family using what they have left behind. The storyline you'll gradually reveal is both heartwarming and incredibly relatable as it touches on a family's struggle with uncertainty, heartache and change.Being a point-and-click adventure, this game doesn't have any puzzles to challenge you or intruders who will attack you on sight. There isn't anything supernatural about the whole event so there's no need to fear looking behind your back or into a mirror. All you need to do is to find and collect clues, and eventually piece together the story of what had happened to your family while you were away.
This is definitely the sort of game that a fan of story-rich games would love. The entire game's premise is centered around its storyline and hence, it's as good as it gets.
