    I've bought several humble bundles over the years. If they say "more to come", then they mean it.

    If you buy the bundle before all the games are listed, you'll get emails from them saying "We've added <GAME X> to your bundle, come get it!".:thumb:

    Epic game. One of the very best I've played in years.

    Want me to nab a copy for you? You can pay me back when ever.

    It is excellent yes, the DLC is also well worth getting, so the GOTY edition would be my pick.

    Does dishonored pick up later in the game? I bought it in a previous steam sale, but never got past the pub due to profound boredom.

    Depends how you play, its the same thing right through but you do get new enemies later in the game like the tall boys and there is a great Thief reference much later on (going after Daud mission)

    You can go for high chaos which really mixes things up or go slow and steady and work through it, bear in mind though if you go high chaos you get the bad ending and swarms of rats and dogs on the street, there are 3 endings in total so playing stealthy you do get more from the game.

    No problem, enjoy! :)

    I actually purchased it near release, played it for 40 minutes and couldn't get into it. Then one day I decided to give it another ago and got completely hooked. Think I have something like 80 hours into it now doing two runs in the game and DLC, which feels like the right way to play it. A fun kill everything that moves run and then a Stealth kill nothing run for a challenge.

    So yes it picks up and is well worth keeping at it until the proper missions start. :)

    Definitely does, though I would say I thought the last level was pretty weak. And there are some parts where the game has been clearly limited for consoles.

    Still great fun though!

    What were you bored of?

    There is a bit that sucks a level or two near the end, but otherwise it ain't bad, and if you like those missions where you infiltrate a party or mingle, there's one of those too.

    I thought the gameplay and feel echoed the art style; Mechanical and paint-by-numbers...
    Although, now that I think about it, I have the same criticism of most UE3 first person games. Perhaps it's just that my familiarity has bred contempt.

    Or it's tempered your expectations on a massively-hyped game, allowing you to appreciate it even more ;)
