Dishonored

The best non-lethal method is the Lord Regent's one. Broadcasting his crimes to the nation so that his own guards lock him up? Yes please. It also has the effect of showing people who was really behind the murder of the Empress, but that doesn't seem to be reflected in the story.

Well after that the Loyalists try to have Corvo killed, so it's not surprising that they don't tell him that he's been vindicated.

the easiest way to take campbell out non-lethally:

spill the glasses campbell set out, choke martin while he follows campbell and take him to a safe hiding place, then either do the same to campbell or follow him to his secret room and do whatever you want to him. then take him to the interrogation room

Alright. Where would be a safe place to put the captain?

I just gutted campbell, and then Curnow was able to fight his way out without my assistance.

Not sure if there are other possibilites, but you can put him in a trash bin.

outside the dining hall where they exit, on the immediately right

thats a hiding place.

Oh, okay. I did do that with two bottle-street guys earlier in the level...is there a trash bin inside the building, then?

Grab him, blink up to the lights and drop him there.

"Oh wow, what happened? Feels like I got choked-ARGH!" *crunch*

Yeah no :P

I sadly I got the Lord Regent killed the first time, by having him on me while guards were shooting at my Corvo. My Corvo didn't kill him one of his own guards did :p

ಠ_ಠ

you sir, fail at stealth.

My first time through, being a vengeful person in real life, I snuck into the Lord Regent's chambers by stopping time and teleporting through his fireplace.

Then stabbing him repeatedly.

I may have tossed his corpse off the balcony, too.

You should have then used Devouring Swarm on his corpse

Speaking of that, anyone else have a little Freak Out whenever they run into a group of rats big enough to start nipping at Corvo's heels? I did that in the sewer and then in the Campbell mission, and on the second one I got fed up enough to waste one of my grenades on the group that had done it.

Downloadable Content revealed. One's a stupid collection of challenges like Bioshock 2's Protector Trials DLC, while the other is much more interesting, in which you get to play as Daud, the killer of the Empress and play with his abilities. Neat, but I'm hoping they make it at least as long as Minerva's Den for Bioshock 2. After all, it is getting released in spring of next year, so it better be long. Also, what's with the fucking Bioshock 2 comparisons I'm making today? Granted, Arkane did the level design for it, but that was it.

Edit: Forgot the bloody link.

I actually really enjoy the idea of challenge maps that's one of the features to the game I felt was missing, plus the pricing isn't bad either.

I'll be interested in learning more about Daud and the Whalers. They were important enough to where that should have been original content though, not a fucking DLC.

id like to see an actual whale.

cuz apparantly their spanish name is el'drichy

Just look on any whaling boat going down the river.

Also, I might have done something that seems rather petty to anyone else...While I was walking around the beginning of the Overseer level, I pointed the Heart at a guy and it said "He spies on his neighbors and reports them to the Overseers." I immediately choked him out. Is that wrong?

I just finished my first play through, a no-kill run.

The game was absolutely wonderful...but that ending was terrible. Might as well have just flashed a YOU WON screen. And the final level was ridiculously easy and anti-climactic.

I'm also a bit saddened we never learned any thing of significance about The Outsider.

You want it to be harder, now do a kill everything run.

I've already started on that.

I suggest Corvo, loudest man in Dunwall.

Just finished my first playthrough of the game a few minutes ago. It was a Low-Chaos run, and although I thought the mission itself was fun, yeah, that ending was underwhelming. Not Rage-bad, by any stretch, but underwhelming.

Ahaha, nice double meaning there.

Anyway, question for the round table:

Do you think "The Boldest Measures Are the Safest" qualifies as Arc Words? I can't tell if that's meant to be advice for the player or otherwise significant, or whether it's just a generic dystopian catchphrase.
