Glitches? Art style? Graphics? Or simply a genre? What's the one thing that when reading a review or watching gameplay will almost instantly turn you away from buying it?
Mine would, sadly, be art style. If the game looks cheesy, I won't buy it. I simply don't want to look at big headed characters or overly dramatic features. After watching the first Dishonored trailer I was very excited, however later on my brother showed me the first uploaded pictures of the in-game characters and I literally said, "Well I'm not paying for it." Don't get me wrong, I love artistic touches in video games. The Walking Dead, Soul Caibur, No More Heroes, Mirror's Edge, Mario games, RPG's, Limbo, Minecraft, etc. All are great games, and not only do they have strong artistic aproaches to them, the art actually adds to the setting and makes the experience even better. Dishonored however... after seeing such an amazing looking trailer that looked like a mixture of an art style and realism, it was so disappointing to see it change so much. I'm still looking forward to playing it and I'm sure I will enjoy it, but I won't be paying for it. I'll borrow it or play my brother's copy if he gets it.
