Inspectable Objects

Inspectable objects are objects in Dishonored 2 and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider that either Corvo Attano, Emily Kaldwin or Billie Lurk will comment on when interacting with them. In Dishonored 2 the nature of the comment is often based on the chaos level, while in Death of the Outsider they stay the same.

Stamp (Hypatia's Office)

*Emily Low Chaos: "Help thugs like the Howlers, or the zealots from the Abbey - I just don't know."

*Emily Low Chaos: "Corvo used a metronome to help me develop my timing, when we'd duel with sword."
