Dishonored

I-Dishonored ngumdlalo wevidiyo odumileyo wezenzo nezinqaba, owenziwe yi-Arkane Studios kwaye wapapashwa yi-Bethesda Softworks. Udume ngowezi-2012, lo mdlalo ubekwe kwisixeko saseDunwall esiyintsomi, esigcwele imikhuhlane, esisekelwe kwi-steampunk kunye ne-Victorian-era London. Idibanisa izinto zokufihla, ukuhlolwa, kunye namandla angaphezu kwawemvelo ukwenza amava anomdla, anomdla wokuziqalela, adlale amanxaxheba kunye nabagxeki ngokufanayo. Ezingqondweni zeDishonored kukho ibali layo, elijikeleza umlinganiswa kaCorvo Attano, umlinganiswa ophambili kunye nomgcini-khaya weNkosikazi uJessamine Kaldwin. Eli bali liqala ngokubulawa kweNkosikazi nokuthinjwa kwentombi yayo, uEmily Kaldwin. UCorvo utyholwa ngokubulawa kwakhe, kwaye emva kokubalekela kwakhe entolongweni, uqalisa ukufuna impindezelo nokuxolelwa. Isishwankathelo somdlalo sikhangeleka kwimixholo yokukrejelwa, ukuthembeka, kunye nefuthe lokonakalisa lamagunya, njengoko abadlali bekhokela uCorvo kuhambo lwakhe lokucoca igama lakhe nokubuyisela isiqhelo eDunwall. Enye yeempawu ezibalaseleyo zeDishonored kukudlala kwayo okunamandla okungapheliyo, okuvumela abadlali ukuba bakhethe indlela abaphatha ngayo umsebenzi ngamnye. Umdlalo ukhuthaza ukuzama, nokuba kuku hlolwa ngokufihla, ukulwa okuthe ngqo, okanye ukusetyenziswa kwamandla angaphezu kwawemvelo anikwe ngumntu ongaziwayo owaziwa njenge-Outsider. Lamandla, njenge-Blink (ukuhambisa ngokuphazima kweliso) kunye ne-Possession (ukubamba izinto eziphilayo), zinikezela ngekhubalo elinamandla nelinokuguquguquka kwabadlali ukuhamba ngamanqanaba omhlaba enziwe ngobuchule. Inkululeko yokujongana nemeko ngeendlela ezininzi yongeza kwimdlalo ophindayo, njengoko abadlali banokufumana iziphumo ezahlukileyo ngokusekelwe kuzo izigqibo zabo. Ukwakhiwa kwamanqanaba eDishonored yenye into efumene umdla omkhulu. Inqanaba ngalinye liwumdlalo ngokwalo, linikezela ngeendlela ezininzi kunye nezisombululo kwimisebenzi. Le filosofi yoyilo ikhuthaza abadlali ukuba bahlole baze bafumane iindawo ezifihliweyo nezimfihlo, yongeze ubunzulu kumhlaba osekhona sele unobunzulu. Isixeko saseDunwall sinenkcukacha, kunye nesitayile sobuciko esohlukileyo esifakazelwa kukukhanya okungenamoya kunye nesitayile sobuciko sokudweba esihambelana nomoya omnyama nogqithisileyo womdlalo. Inkqubo yokuziphatha eDishonored yongeza enye inqanaba lobunzima kumdlalo. Izenzo zabadlali zichaphazela ihlabathi lomdlalo kunye nebali layo, zikhokelele kwiziphelo ezahlukileyo ngokusekelwe kwinkqubo "ye-chaos". I-chaos ephezulu iveliswa yizenzo zobundlobongela nokubulala okugqithisileyo, ekhokelela kwihlabathi elingakumbi eline-chaos kunye nelimnyama, ngelixa i-chaos ephantsi, efumaneka ngokungabulali nokufihla, ivelisa isiphumo esinethemba. Le nkqubo ikhuthaza abadlali ukuba bacaphule iziphumo zezigqibo zabo, yongeze ubungcali bokuziphatha kumdlalo. Ukusebenza ngezwi kunye nokuyilwa kwesandi eDishonored kuphucula ngakumbi ibali layo. Ngabadlali abanetalente, abalinganiswa baye bavuswa bubomi ngokubunzulu kunye nemvakalelo. Imisindo eziluhlu kunye nomculo ohambelanayo zihambelana nomoya oxhaphazelayo kunye nomoya onobunzulu, zisenza abadlali badumele ngakumbi kumhlaba waseDunwall. Ngokubanzi, iDishonored yingqungquthela yeebali, umdlalo, kunye noyilo lobuciko. Ukugxininiswa kwayo kwisigqibo somdlali kunye nesiphumo, kunye nomhlaba onenkcukacha eziyimfihlo kunye nebali elinomdla, kuyenza kube yinto ephumeleleyo kuhlobo lwe-stealth-action. Impumelelo yomdlalo ibe ngenxa yezinye iinxalenye kunye nezinye izicatshulwa, ifaka indawo yayo phakathi kwemidlalo emikhulu yevidiyo. I-Dishonored ihlala iyinyaniso kwimbono yokudala ye-Arkane Studios kunye nokukwazi kwabo ukwenza amava okudlala anenkumbulo kunye nomdla.
