For the past while, Bethesda has been offering some really cool gameplay videos for their upcoming game, Dishonored. Developed by Arkane Studios, Dishonored is an exciting new supernatural stealth game rich with possiblilities. There are several ways to play the game, so even if you're not the best at stealth or full-out action, you'll easily find a mode suitable for you.
The "Creative Kills" gameplay video features some interesting new ways of taking down your enemies. Let's go over each of them:
Death By Rat: This one is pretty straightforward. As Corvo, you have the ability to summon a sea of rats, attatch a spring razor to one of them, possess it and quickly take down your foes with the tiny rodent. At the same time you can also summon the rats and have them all take down your foes together. It might sound pretty ridiculous, but both tactics are very effective.
Friendly Fire: This has to be one of my favourite kills yet. In Friendly Fire you actually bend time just as an enemy shoots, you possess the enemies' body, reposition them and watch their own bullet take them down. At the same time you can also reflect the bullet right back at them for an explosive attack. These are definitely some of the "fancier" kills possible. I'm interested in trying them out during my playthrough.
Reversal of Fortune: The opening scene depicts a group of men tossing rats into an electrical gate. Never gets old, right? Well, if you find the rewire tool and reverse the polarity of the gate then you can easily take down your foes by pushing them into the gate or by leading them in. This method is pretty mindless, but if you're looking for a high death toll this might be just the method.

Bethesda also realeased another interesting gameplay video called "The Study of Stealth", which is great for anyone interested in this form of gameplay. There are several tips to take in mind if you decide to play with stealth:
Out of Sight Out of Mind: Here we learn about the enemies line of sight and how manipulating lighting and sounds, leaning around corners or crouching as you walk can help avoid an unecessary danger. Each of these methods is pretty basic if you're already familiar with stealth, but if you're not this video can serve as a useful tool.

As you can see there are a plethora of ways you can go about playing Dishonored. There is no "right" way, so instead find the way most comfortable for you or, if you're brave, try a tactic you've never used before.
