@Machinist: Wait, you said the Overseers killed by Voracious did NOT count as a kill by Corvo in the stats? If they weren't counted in the stats, they don't block the achievement either, cuz that is exactly what this counter is there for to show you.

I think what matters is if the person that got killed was able to defend themselves still. Like for instance, the Overseers in the kennels CAN get killed by Voracious but they can just as well fend him off and kill him. I've released Voracious before as well, and for me the first Overseer he attacked shot him down. Same goes for rat swarms attacking guards. The first one attacked usually dies, but several come to his aid and fight off the rats.

If, however, an unconscious person is killed later on, be it by falling off a ledge or into the water by accident ( I had to replay a mission once for Clean hands because a whaler falling from a ledge unnoticed by me had put a kill in my stats), or being eaten by a rat swarm (no matter if released by you or roaming freely) the kill is on you, even if you did not directly kill them nor intending their death. Cuz if you are going that route (leaving people unconscious) you are to make sure they stay alive afterwards because they can't take care of themselves anymore.
