How much can I kill and still get good ending?

[sull]

If I focus on stealth and non-lethal takedowns, but occasionally mess up and have to kill a few people, do I still get the good ending? There are dead people all over Dunwall, I seriously doubt that adding a few more would impact the plague much.

I HAVE KILLED ONE-TWO PEOPLE IN EACH CHAPTER AND MAYBE I WILL NOT HAVE GOOD ENDING.... (MAYBE)

I know Americans who type with WAY worse grammar than you in these forums. Trust me, bino477, you're fine.

You should be ok, I did the same and got the good ending. At the end of each level it will tell you your overall chaos (or something like that), I believe if it is low you get the good ending.

i feel like what effects her more is if you kill the last guy or not

I killed 12 people and still got the good ending.

I think it`s mean killing the poor doggies doesn`t add chaos or death count.

Well that's a relief. I'm going to do one playthrough stealthily and cautiously, and then another as a bloodthirsty murder monster.

That makes sense based on the supposed reasoning for how the chaos system works if I remember correctly.

In my most recent play-through I began the last mission on "low" (having killed all main targets plus all Whalers, those Tall Boys killable without using blink, and all guards in the second but last mission). In the last mission I killed all enemies (stabbing most of them), which drove my over all chaos to "high". Nevertheless I got the "low chaos" cinematic. Apparently the cinematic is determined right before the last mission starts.

I got a high chaos rate on the second mission and killed around 15 on the others missions together. I still got the good ending

i had a high chaos level in almost every mission - quite sure of it :) - and got the good ending. besides... whats the bad ending? she falls to death?

If you got the "good" ending, then you didn't finish the game with high chaos. Finishing a single level with high overall chaos doesn't mean anything; you can still bring it back down by being stealthy and merciful later. Hence "overall" chaos.

"Ending" refers to the clips that play AFTER the very last mission. As in, what happens to the city and its inhabitants. Just because you saved *someone* doesn't mean you got the good ending.

I guess around 15 kills per mission is the maximum (not on short missions)

You're right, I've done that. High level chaos means you killed a lot until that level. The question was how many people (i guess hounds counts too) he can kill and still get the "good" ending
