With the release of Arkane Studio's highly anticipated "Dishonored 2" last November 11, fans are excitedly playing and witnessing the story of Empress Emily Kaldwin and Corvo Attano. However, if you are a PC gamer and you pre-ordered the PC version of the game, you might want to keep the packaging intact for a while.
Huge waves of gamers are complaining about the game's poor graphical optimization on Steam reviews. According to various reviews, the follow-up stealth action-adventure game suffers from lags and rock bottom frame rates even on beefy computers. Even if the graphic settings are set to the lowest doesn't do much help as it just leads to miscellaneous errors such as laggy mouse inputs and bugs.
According to GamenGuide, fans are claiming that Bethesda deliberately did this atrocious rip-off in purpose. It is well known that before a game is released, it should undergo several play tests so media can put up a review of the game. As opposed to Bethesda's new policy of sending out review copies, media are kept in dark regarding the games status. One reason that we can link to this negligence is the immense amount of pre-orders for "Dishonored 2" that would go to waste if bad reviews came out.
The report says that PC owners are furious about this event and others are saying that Bethesda doesn't respect PC gamers. However, we should get hasty as the players share the blame. If players have just waited for initial reviews of the game, strategies such as this will never happen. We should just be cautious and weigh the risks when buying the game early.
Arkane studio announced that they are aware of the scenario and are working hard to address the issue. Though there are no confirmations as of the moment as when it will be available, we can rest assured that a fix is coming. As far as we can tell, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of "Dishonored 2" doesn't appear to have the similar issues as with the PC version.
