The chances that's its a good game is high because its the same development team from what I have read.
I liked DXHR very much, I have not played the Directors cut of that but its supposedly fixed all boss fights and a lot of other things.
So the chances that they improve on their last game is very high. Overall DXHR is one of my favourite stealth games, and I love the hub aspect of these games where you go from different cities around the world, some minor exploration elements, and the game doesn't feel on rails at all, but has a very well crafted story and focus to it, it takes similar design philosophies from HL2 and Dishonored.
Will definitely pick this up next winter sale.
