The massive choice of how to play each level is something so nice to have in what is still a 'linear' story game. It is also very replayable, because of the [versatility] of each playstyle/character/level."

"You get most of the powers from the first Dishonored plus some new better ones. With New Game + you can use all of Corvo and all of Emily's powers," commented another player with the username Herm00r.
