The whaler song. Some people will whistle it and you can find the lyrics lying around in books occasionally but it's not actually in the game. Warning, comments may contain spoilers.Zomborgon posted:Is there question that he isn't? What?

I'm pretty sure those random grunts are all cycling through the exact same heart clips though. For example Cecelia just gets the same generic female quotes as other women.

The only time I've accidentally killed someone after choking them out was when I dumped a guard at the top of a staircase. But it's completely understandable that he broke his neck and died after all that uncomfortable tumbling.

I don't think you can level up all powers. Just going with improved blink and improved agility is easily enough to get through the game and during my last playthrough I ended up with quite a lot of unspent runes.

Weird, I remember the conversation with the sick overseer after the assassination being very different. Maybe it was a different place. Possessing is really fun, it even works on fish. Who hasn't wanted to possess fish every once in a while?

I'm so tempted to start a new playthrough of this game now. Apparently I only have 66 hours logged on Steam. Maybe try for the ghost achievement or the one where you don't spend a single rune. Can you feel the new day rising, Climbing up the east horizon?

Personally I kinda like the low chaos scene with the three overseers on your way back from dealing with the high one. Another detail that really helps with the atmosphere is in the sewers when you escape the prison and run into the recently lived in area with dead people. In a corner you find the bodies of a man and a woman with a mattress, cooking tools and things that makes it clear they've been living there a short time. And Damien's Journal.quote:Amanda and I only had enough coin to buy half the elixir we needed. Even that's all gone now, and there's nothing to do but wait. We're very sick and there's no place above to hide from the city watch. They're breaking into houses all over our district. So we'll stay here and share the last hours together. Our fire will keep the rats away, but they'll inherit this city. On my latest playthrough I wrapped up a few days ago I somehow got both the Ghost and Shade achievements. Possession is amazingly helpful. After choking a lady and leaving her on a basement floor, which apparently also had a pack of rats, I learned that it doesn't count as you murdering people if they die from environmental hazards so to speak. The box "didn't kill anyone" was still checked after it was over despite the contrary and mildly gruesome evidence.

warhammer651 posted:I'd be hesitant to call the non-lethal options the "Good" method High and low chaos is completely separate from lethal or non-lethal of terminating the target. You'll still be low chaos if you stab every single target and spare the guards like a professional. Likewise you'll be high chaos if you murder everyone in front of you and want the bastards to suffer far worse than a quick death.

Maybe the branding iron was kept at the ready because the ol' high overseer was using it to threaten the rest as part of the blackmail. It would also explain why the two guys on the street were talking about it, it's been mentioned more lately.

I just went through The Knife of Dunwall, yet again. That freaking close up of the oil processing is, still, really really unsettling.  Incidentally I'm really looking forward to when the LP gets there and I'll learn where in the world some of the runes and bonecharms are hidden. While I could look it up it's not nearly as fun.

One of the guards will talk about how great the big spinning wheel is and how important it is to never let it stop, but he doesn't react at all if you shut it down.

I had no idea you could possess people to remove wale oil tanks. But it does make so much sense. Except for the other guards not caring that one of them suddenly jerks up, starts shuffling towards the tank, removes the tank and then continues shuffling away out over a ledge and disappears.

I don't remember if it has been mentioned yet, but Sokolov would probably suspect Piero to send the assassin since he's making the main (and only) competing elixir against the plague. And since Piero got kicked out of the academy or whatever he likely harbors resentment.

It's not difficult to get into the upper floor if you use the balcony above the guy in the wolf mask. The guard is, for some reason, the same as any of the ones of the ground so you can casually walk past him and choke/stab him at your convenience.

Yeah, this is the one mission when the non-lethal way is just way too horrible for the person's crimes that you must be one evil bastard to not just slit her throat. The other targets have a poetic justice to them, this is just... no.
