Dishonored 2 is out and Bethesda’s new review policy has nipped them in the butt. While the console editions of the game has been doing quite well, but the PC edition on Steam is holding at an average of 6/10.
The issues seems to be with the game being buggy and needed some serious optimization, even on higher end systems. Bethesda is looking to get a patch out ASAP, but because nobody was made aware of these issues, people are miffed.
Anyways, let’s jump into the scores for Dishonored 2 from across the interwebs.
