I could have sworn there was an achievement for that last death, but I must be mistaken.

The tools of a hero mean nothing without a solid core.

A stealth game is at its best when things go awry and chaos-panic ensues. This LP is at its best.

This video was less "things went awry" and more "Tea said gently caress it and murdered everyone" which is equally hilarious. :classiclol:

Bravo on getting this far. Hope you check out the Low Chaos executions of the various villains as well as the High Chaos ones, on your own time if necessary. They’re all fun!

Just -ZAP- gotta -ZAP- get down these -ZAP- stairs -SIZZLE-

Something about this game is melting down Tea's brain and it is amazing.

e: Shame we didn't get to siege Burrows' panic room, that's one of the few actually challenging parts of the game especially if you're trying to ghost it.

e: Honestly kinda surprised you managed this long without a Top Gear reference.

For interested players- breaking into the Regent’s panic room is necessary for the more challenging Low Chaos resolution to this quest. I ultimately found it the most satisfying part of the game’s Low Chaos content. Players wishing to experience it for themselves are encouraged on that path.

It isn't. Tea did the low chaos solution, you just grab the record from his room and play it from the top of the tower. He just forgot he rewired the wall.

e: Unless there's an alternative low chaos solution I'm unaware of?

You’re remembering the game better than I am. My bad. My apologies. I need to make time to actually watch these videos before I post anything about them. Thx for the reminder.

High Chaos is also challenging against the Lord Regent. Serious amount of guards surrounding him and lots of obstacles to overcome. Perhaps it is the more challenging experience. I’ll let the player decide.

Daud is my favorite character in the game. Kudos to Michael Madsen and the other artists who portrayed him. I will watch the video boss battle when I can.

That's one way of dealing with Daud I have never tried myself. :v:
My favorite way is probably to ghost through and pick his pocket before sneaking out without him ever noticing. Probably quite embarrassing when he suddenly realizes that Corvo, master assassin, outclassed him that much.

Same. Also while he is definitely not a nice person he is at least not betraying you.

I still can't figure out what even happened to Daud watching the replay back. He just vanished I guess?

When you do enough damage to Daud he teleports to a Cutscene Spot for a save/kill choice. He was marked on the hud at the end of last video but, well, if you don't see it it's easy to just walk out the exit as was done.

Daud’s save/kill scene is worth watching on another playthrough- or your own play if you prefer. This LP is awesome with or without it, the whole game is cool. Just saying. :)

You did the right thing. Slackjaw might be an evil bastard but Granny Rags is far far worse.

If the options presented are "Help Slackjaw, Kill Granny Rags" or "Help Granny Rags, Kill Slackjaw", then what's the non-lethal option?

Either knock Granny out after burning the cameo or take the key and run.
