A Crack in the Slab might have a similar premise to Effect and Cause, but its combination of its themes and mechanics makes it stand out. The game’s seventh mission, A Crack in the Slab, gets less attention.ĭishonored 2 released shortly after Titanfall 2, whose time-travel themed mission Effect and Cause might have stolen some of A Crack in the Slab’s thunder. It’s a great level, rich with the kind of creativity that Arkane is known for. Many people have rightfully singled out Dishonored 2‘s fourth mission, The Clockwork Mansion, as one of the game’s best. Now, after the release of Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, I found myself craving a return to Dishonored 2. Dishonored 2‘s brilliant self-assurance is compelling I couldn’t stay away. I tore through the game in two days, scouring every square inch of its wonderful setting, Karnaca. Last spring, Dishonored 2 ripped me right out of my gaming funk.
