Dishonored Definitive or Dishonored 2?

[Tek81]

I'm looking for a decent game to play over the weekend. I've narrowed it down to Dishonored, compete with all the DLC or its sequel. I just can't decide between the two. Although I played the original on release, I haven't played the DLC nor can I remember much about storyline. I've not played the sequel, but as good as it looks, the performance issues that some people have reported are a bit worrying. I'd get both but I don't have the time to complete them. What would be the best choice for a weekend gaming binge?

Cheers.

Is the second one a longer game, or about the same? I seem to remember the original being quite short.

I ended up getting Dishonored 2. I still want to play the DLC from the original, so I might pick that up at a later date. Fingers crossed it works....

No no no. Go and buy the 1st game and play it first. It's not mandatory, but you're gonna get *way* more outta DH2 if you do.

This isn't some generic gameplay-focused game. The world-building is amazing, and the Corvo situation will make a lot more sense.

Plus it runs like a dream. A GTX970 will get you 4k/60fps at max settings - not kidding.

I dont care if the original isn't on sale. Buy it at what price it is available at, along with the DLC(which is fantastic!). It is honestly one of the best games of the last generation.

I played the original upon release, albeit on a different platform. I just haven't played the DLC for it.

Starting to think I might have made the wrong decision. The game crashes to desktop without an error message every couple of mins. Runs fine aside from that...Can't even refund because I bought through GMG.
