I've now started playing the Dishonored 2 Demo.
Not to happy .
The main characters voices are very, very USA to an extent that annoys my
British self, given the games mid 19 cen. setting.
Wonder what they sound like in the e.g Chinese version ?

The intro tutorial emphasises key mashing movement ...run - jump - slide 
under
My impression so far is like Thief 2014 / bit Splinter Cell / Bit Deus Ex.

I'm glad I have this Demo as I have been wanting to want the Game
and now feel I have seen it & do not in fact want more.

I played as Emily and took no issue with the voice.

I didn't use the sliding crouch more than the one time they made me do
it in the intro. You don't need it. The intro was weird, it felt like
Half Life OpFor's boot camp which was quite an anachronism. Completely
unrepresentative of the broader game which is excellent.

That's a relief :) 
Thanks Toby.
I'm now playing the Demo game proper & am warming to it .
Might become a purchase after all.
