Whose philosophy on stealth is "If there's no one left to raise the alarm no one can raise the alarm".

Especially in Ghost Recon Wildlands or on the Colorado map of Hitman. If you know you know.

Trying to stealth kill a camp in RDR 2 is neigh impossible. Somehow those fuckers can spot you crouching from 50 feet away

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 1 points 8 hours ago

To be fair you were crouching on horseback.

I am a stealth perfectionist thanks to Metal Gear series and wanting you to be perfectly stealthy to get rewards. If I get caught, I repeat instead.

Using grenades on all the alarm buttons in Deus Ex

Wanna say the sniper rifle destroys alarms and cameras if we're talking about the original Deus Ex. Also the GEP gun may be handy if the two are close enough to each other.

Yeah, sometimes you need to make a silent takedown. I'm now rewatching all the related YouTube poo, thanks.

That's why stealth should never be mandatory, I mean even the dumbest of Ubisoft eventually understood it.

If the alarm goes up, let us deal with it, but none of that "you've been discovered, restart mission" shit

If I want to be a real evil developer I'll allow blown cover in stealth missions but there will be consequences. Like enemy alert/tech level going up permanently and they will counter the approach you used in the previous mission.

Hmm that sounds like Nemesis system but for stealth games.

MGS5 does this.

Slap a silencer on and it'll be just fine.

Even most stealth games allow you to pop two heads at once if you're fast enough the second guy can't yell.

I'm a big fan of Watch Dogs and Cyberpunk style stealth hacking though. Jump into the security cam network and kill everyone in the building using environmental hazards (and in Cyberpunk, spontaneous combustion and other fun tricks) while you sit comfy a block away. Real fun to still get the stealth mission objectives popping up after when you walk in like you own the place. Or when the game still has pre-scripted dialog about how tight security is while I'm walking through a pile of their corpses.

In honor of your gaming buddy, I'm going to murder every person in the Oblivion Remastered quest "Whodunit?" and then resume stealthing after.

He would indeed feel honored. I am abjecty horrified.

[–] Guidy@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

More like if there’s nobody left to be alarmed then there’s no alarm.

[–] brap@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

A-fuckin-men

I've being a stealth archer this time around in oblivion and I was actually proud of myself.... Until I got 5 grand soul gems and now I'm always invisible.
