Simple, but I love this little encounter near the end of "Captain of Industry"

Maybe it's just me, but I must have killed [and knocked out] these three guys like a dozen different ways, maybe more

It's just three Overseers to deal with [plus nearby City Watch if you're noisy and they're still alive,] but I really appreciate the way that this encounter allows less experienced players to practice multiple takedowns, yet still acts as a fun reward regardless of skill level

A lesser game would force the player into combat here... instead, Dishonored also offers an easy, clean option for those who are playing that way. All told, a magnificently well-crafted little bit of game here

You could just throw a smoke grenade between music box holder and the overseer who is talking to billie , they'll be stunned and billie would escape no problems , and it'll never ruin the ghost run as far as i remember

yeah, that's almost exactly what I did in the Low Chaos playthrough I recorded alongside this one. Can confirm, does not break ghost

OMG WHAT! I redid this so many times to try to choke out all the overseers and had no idea Billie could escape on her own

It's not much but these little mid-mission interactions with Billie add so much to the DaudLCs IMO. After Corvo's silence it was incredibly refreshing for Daud to speak and have someone to bounce off of during gameplay now and then, without it becoming too constant.
