I disagree. 
I rarely play new games, but sometimes, something come up that I consider worth trying. After reading few old posts here, I realised that most people on this forum, have pretty much the same taste, so I've decided to recommend this one in case someone dont know about it. Name of the game is 'Dishonored'.

Only bad thing in it, is the story (well, not bad, but it is a bit clishe). Although story is one of the most important things for me, I'll make an exeption for this one.

It's a first person shooter (with RPG elements), but it is possible (and more interesting) to finish it without killing a single person (including the main targets), or you can go through levels butchering everyone in sight... Or butchering everyone silently one by one. There are many choices, and atmosphere of the game is totally in the hands of the player. That is why its so good.

If you liked thief series, I strongly recommend this one.
Enjoy.

I actually did play through without killing people and only using Blink.

The story isn't terrible. It's not really cliche. I think what I absolutely love about the game is the world they created, and how much depth was put into it. It's a little short but the game is very re-playable so whatever.

I've heard good and bad things about it. For instance, I hear the AI is so terrible that it ruins a big part of the gameplay :/

Is that the game people are making no-kill walkthroughs for?
Anyway, I recommend Valkyria Chronicles 2. It changed my life. You are not a complete man if you haven't played it.

This is a funny conversation when you have deleted messages set to off xD

For the record, I find it hard to shell out the full 60 euro price for a game as well these days, mostly due to the great indy/cheaper games coming out and because of Steam sales

I find it hard too, since I basically don't play games these days.

@Kyle, I feel the same way. Steam sales, Humble bundles and similar sites have spoiled me so much.

I just bought the last Humble Indie bundle for ~7 bucks and just bought Megabyte Punch from Indiegamestand today (also pay what you want.) For 60 bucks, I could have a hundred new games to try out.

Btw, I've only just completed the tutorial level to Megabyte Punch and I've got a good feeling about it. It plays a bit like smash bros.
