    And if the Password Recovery doesn't work (there was an error transitioning accounts during the upgrade), use the "contact us" link right down the bottom right of the forums and harass us about it. Include your account name and its e-mail address (or whatever parts of it you remember).

Give us a week to get around to approving / deleting / ignoring your mundane opinion on crap before hassling us about it. Once you have passed the moderation period (think of it as a test), you will be able to post normally, just like all the other retards.

    Sneaky Bastards, a stealth game-focused website, has done a preview-meets-interview on Arkane Studios' Dishonored, coming this October to a PC near you. Have a glimpse:

    With its unbreaking first-person perspective, light and shadow system, intriguing AI innovations, suite of supernatural powers and overpowering ambience, what I saw of Dishonored evoked the very title that was the genesis of the stealth genre and Sneaky Bastards itself: Thief.

    But this was Thief on speed.

    “That was the original intention,” says Colantonio.

    “We actually met with Doug Church early on,” adds Smith. “He’s a friend of ours. We brought him by the studio and we talked a lot with him about stealth systems before we really got rolling. One of the things Doug said, which was exactly what we were thinking already, was, ‘If I had a way to make Thief fast… I might do that. Like, you’re less-seen if you sprint.’ That kind of thing.”

    In making stealth fast, Dishonored already looks like it succeeds. And it does so without making stealth dumb.

    To find out just how Dishonored does that, be sure to read the article in full. It's pretty lengthy, by the way.

    Arkane PLEASE deliver!

    If it's half as good as Thief I will be pleased.

    Somehow this sounds deja vu. Hasn't the exact same information been published a month ago?

    Hmmm, no. This particular preview is pretty new and the most in-depth so far.
