Technically the game runs flawless. Very well optimized. I'll write down some impressions tomorrow.

They optimized it by removing all textures. I bet Bethesda proper is already taking notes for Fallout 5.

How much upgrade depth are you expecting? There's six skill trees, every weapon has multiple stats that can be improved, and you can install upgrades for your suit and psychoscope.
I bough from cd keys... it's still expensive, but it was half the price on steam...

Hard difficulty is actually kind of hard. The word finally has some damn meaning again. I wonder what Nightmare is like.

Tried the demo on ps4, controls were shit. Anyone playing the release version that can confirm they fixed the control lag?

I'm playing on nightmare, I think the only difference from other difficulty modes is how much damage enemies do. Certain aliens can kill you in one or two hits which forces you into a more stealthy play style.

The question I have is do any of these things matter? Do you feel like you actually have to think about what upgrades you want to get, other than for how fun and cool they sound to you? The key to solid RPG design is having some upgrades that you feel you want and some you feel you need, so there's tension in the experience. Minor improvements to healing and weapon accuracy and a suite of gimmicky powers do not fit this bill.
I don't know how the game actually plays out, but the impression I got from the list of powers was that you don't have to think much about your approach to character building, and just go with whatever sounds cool or immediately useful. Compared to something like System Shock 2 (which is the prime object of comparison), it appears to be a downgrade in depth, even if not necessarily in complexity or breadth. I hope I'm wrong about this, but that's how I'd characterize Dishonored.

This has been fixed in the final release.
You're not gonna get very far if you play it like a classic FPS. Difficulty, lack of ammo and Typhon wickedness/randomness is starting to show once the game truly opens up in the Arboretum. Till then the game is quite confined and easy. But then again many of the patrolling Typhon soldiers and the roaming Weaver in the Lobby can be avoided. The search-and-collect metagame in this game is real fun.
The game is much closer to Shock2 than Bioshock in terms of gameplay systems and level design structure. A proper FPS/RPG hybrid.
Yep.
Yet, the game looks very pretty. Graphics whores gonna ceeveevee.
