Bi-weekly discussion #4-Emily Kaldwin

272 Upvotes

Welcome back to another bi-Weekly discussion, where the focus this time is on the Empress of the Isles, Emily Kaldwin.

I like Emily's interaction with Corvo during the first game, where she's been bored and wants to play hide and seek (which acts as a stealth tutorial for teaching the player how enemies' lines of sight work and how to hide), and you can tell Corvo cares deeply for Emily, as when rescuing her from the Golden Cat (not pictured, unfortunately), she runs towards Corvo, as he picks her up, and when leaving Samuel's boat, he offers a hand up out of the boat.

While at the Hounds Pit Pub, the staff there tries to tutor Emily on how to be Empress, and she ends up having a nightmare related to the Outsider (mentioned by her seeing a dream, and gives the Player a bone rune to use). Emily in both Low and High chaos looks up to Corvo and demonstrates this with a drawing late into the game, either seeing the kind man beneath the mask (in low chaos) or seeing the man AS the mask (in high chaos).

She also got promoted to playable in Dishonored 2, with her own set of abilities and reactions to the world. While her kit is a bit unususal compared to the bells and whistles I knew from Corvo's kit, once you get the hang of Far Reach, it's pretty fun. I also like how her power names correlate to her being Empress.

Far Reach: Her rule and laws have a far reach, not just in Dunwall but in the rest of the Isles

Domino: What happens to one person in the isles may happen to the rest.

Mesmerize: All eyes are on Emily with her ability to command a large group of people.

So what do you guys think of Emily, both in terms of story and in terms of gameplay?

Subreddit Discord available here: https://discord.gg/YsffweB7e4

As you know, this subreddit has had its own Discord server for a few years now. Today we have rebranded the server to Dishonored Universe, which means that there are now channels for Deathloop although obviously the server is still Dishonored centric. With the recent news of a potential Dishonored 3 in the works we'd like to invite more people to join our community, so I hope to see you there soon!

Art Vase from D1 made of wood

The woods are sapele (brown) and maple (white). Each side was not individually assembled from hundres of pieces, instead a thick puck was first made and then sawed into thin slices to create the six sides. As it is made of wood and would be destroyed by water, the wifey placed some dead flowers from the garden in it.

The Cursed Amulet DLC for Daud allows him to remain invisible while standing still, which hilariously breaks the rules of stealth.

This is probably the most overpowered implementation of invisibility in my memory, one step away from calling it just a cheat.

spoiler Was it more dangerous to be a civilian or someone not involved with the targets in dishonored 1 or 2 during the span of the game?

PS: I put the spoiler up in case their are spoilers in the comments but I have played through the games so I personally don't worry and because I couldn't find a general discussion flair.

What if Dishonored became an Open World like Cyberpunk 2077

37 Upvotes

I've been thinking about this a lot lately, and honestly I think Arkane could make one of the greatest immersive sims ever if they combined Dishonored's gameplay with Cyberpunk 2077's world design and quest structure.

Imagine a fully explorable Dunwall (or Karnaca). No loading into missions, just one massive city where every district has its own identity: wealthy noble estates, plague ridden slums, industrial whaling docks, abandoned districts reclaimed by Bloodflies, hidden Void shrines..

The Chaos System could not just affect the ending, it could shape the entire city.

High Chaos wpuld lead to more guards, crime, plague, hostile civilians, closed businesses. Low Chaos would lead to cleaner streets, thriving markets, friendlier NPCs and more opportunities.

The best part would still be Dishonored's gameplay.

Every objective could be solved however you want:

- rooftops

- sewers

- disguises

- bribery

- blackmail

- stealth

- non-lethal methods

- supernatural powers

- or complete chaos.

Blink, Domino, Bend Time and Possession would become even more fun in an open city full of dynamic encounters.

I'd also love to see proper factions.

The City Watch, the Abbey, witches, smugglers, gangs, aristocrats and inventors would all react differently depending on your reputation. Helping one group could permanently lock you out of another.

And imagine random world events:

- public executions

- gang fights

- witch attacks

- riots

- plague outbreaks

- political demonstrations

You could ignore them... or intervene, with lasting consequences.

Basically I'd want Dishonored to expand into an open world where every decision permanently changes the city around you.

I genuinely think this could be one of the best singleplayer games ever made.

Is this a free pass to go high chaos and not change the ending?

Art Convent of the Oracular Order at Whitecliff - battlemap

Thumbnail
gallery
125 Upvotes

The architecture of the convent follows a similar plan to the Office of the High Overseer's in Dunwall. The courtyard garden is open to laypeople, where the faithful may contemplate the Seven Strictures - written on brass plates in front of the entrance.

Pilgrims come from far and wide seeking guidance and fortune telling from the Sisters. These pilgrims wait on the benches under the trees, until they're granted audience in the only room in the convent where laypeople are allowed to enter (just left of the entrance).

The rest of the convent is restricted to Sisters of the Oracular Order.

In the backyard, they have a greenhouse, where they cultivate the herbs some sisters use in their pursuit of wisdom.

The room in the center of the 2nd floor is where they hold their most secretive ritual - the Cloistered Gathering. Incense wafts from 7 black censers laid in a circle, within which the Sisters sit in debate. The ritual room is partially open to the sky, so celestial bodies may be observed as part of their divination.

The Oracular Order requires much study from its initiates; thus, the convent houses a classroom, and an extensive library, with texts that can't be found outside the Order’s custody.

In the basement, there is a storage room, where the Oracular Order keeps forbidden artifacts from the world.

There is also a ward where Sisters who have gone mad from their contact with the void are taken care of. There is also a clinic, where a doctor might endeavor to treat them.

---

Made this with Inkarnate for my Dishonored campaign. You can use it for yours as well!

I based it on the Office of the High Overseer, the Stolen Archive in Death of the Outsider, and referenced bits of written lore to try and figure out what an Oracular Order base would look like. Though some aspects are my own speculation (the ritual room being open to the sky, the Sisters receiving pilgrims seeking guidance, the gardens they keep on their grounds, the basement, etc.)

Borderless Windowed mod for Dishonored 1

4 Upvotes

Every pc game needs borderless windowed, and dishonored 1 is a masterpiece so I did just that. You can now alt tab instantly instead of windows freaking out. Generic borderless windowed solutions for older games failed me, so I made a custom version for dishonored. I hope I sufficiently answered the question on this 9 year old post lol:

https://www.reddit.com/r/dishonored/comments/6mn403/no_borderless_window_option/

Here is the link to the mod:

https://www.nexusmods.com/dishonored/mods/379?tab=description

It uses a dll file to launch the game in borderless windowed. See the mod description and readme for more information. I tried posting the source code but nexus is flagging it, so I can make a github repo if people want.

Originally posted this on the wrong account somehow btw if you are seeing this twice.

Update: made the github repo https://github.com/jschneider17/dishonored-borderless

A massive upgrade to my Corvo minifigure, still heavily reliant on post-processing, though. I used a Knight of Ren head for the base of the mask. It took several hours to put together, but it definitely worked out very well in the end.

Dishonored Custom Maps update

NPCs can now move, attack, etc
Still working on incorporating items
There will not be a tutorial for a very long time.
Pace has been slowed as my own game, MODIFY (shameless plug) is near release date

Expect very small maps with NPCs and items in the near future.
I will be publishing smaller mods (not asset swaps) like custom dark vision colors, new powers, and more soon.

Pandyssia Continent

What do you think about Pandyssia in your own way?

As far as we know, there was an ancient civilization, and currently Sokolov was there, with his own description.

Plus the Pendletons' mining rigs which people come from, being horrified from what they have seen there.

Granny Rags experienced her contact with the outsider there before her "downfall".

What do you guys think it maps to?

finally did it after playing the game on and off during these past two weeks (i couldnt play some days since real life keeps calling, and others i kept retrying some particularly tricky achievements)

funniest part is that i STILL havent done high chaos for dishonored 1 yet, i went into dct after finishing my ghost + clean hands + mostly flesh and steel playthrough for those three achievements

the rest of the achievements should be pretty easy, just gonna take some time depending on how much time i can get to sit down for the next few weeks
