What is the canon ending?

[Parboleum Loyce]

Anyone know? I can only assume it was Clean Hands, but beyond that there's a lot more that could be different, as opposed to the first game, so anyone know?

If we don't, we could at least suggest what we think it is.

I'd have said Corvo, with powers, Clean Hands and doing all chaos lowering activities.

Low Chaos without a doubt!

Spoiler for the second to last mission:
From the trailer for Death of the Outsider, it likes like Billie Lurk is missing her arm, so I guess canon is that you didn't save the mayor guy during the time travel mission.
Aside from that I'd assume low chaos, since that was the first game's canon.

In D2, Billie's right arm torn from the elbow; in Death of the Outsider Billie has elbow, she's arm torn from the under her elbow. just a difference from producers :)

Well, I was asking for the sake of DotO. I mean, she lost her arm in one timeline, who's to say you didn't save Mr. Mine Baron, then she had her arm removed anyway for the sake of the void arm. Obviously less obvious but

I'm guessing Emily is canon, due to the devs much more supporting Emily as the protagonist of this game. Originally, during middle of Dishonored 2's developement, Emily was the ONLY playable character.

Right now, I would also say Canon is also low chaos.

Billie is "displaced in time" and exists in two states according to Harvey Smith, as a result of a crack in the slab. So it's not clear what happened to Stilton yet.

Oooooooh.


Okay I can totally live with THAT, semi. Do you have a link?

See this is where games like Bioshock Infinite blew it badly for me. I wanted to throttle the devs who wrote the atrocious homicidal maniac girl. This though... could be perfection for that theory of time fracturing.

[Zekiran]

ooh my gawd I just had a thought on that regard too.

what if it's NOT after the main d2 game, but DURING the 3 years when Delilah was summoned but before the time line was changed? if Billie is in this half-state, that implies that the *entire world/universe* is also fractured. So in that world, when she loses her arm and eye, Sokolov *fixes them* and this is her out looking for Daud because (fill in the blank reason she's not in the main universe)....

yeah this has the making of a very interesting game, I can't wait to see just what it is they've come up with.

Low chaos is always the canon ending for the dishonored series. But who the main characters decide to kill in series's lore is based on the creators.
