I AM ACE BEST.
Yesterday I finished the game and got the low chaos ending, but I was DISSAPOINTED. (There wasn't even a cheevo for doing it on hard
). I was going for ultra stealth, and when I finished mission 7 (the flooded district) I saw a CIVILIANS DEAD: 1. I couldn't figure out who or what that was, but mission 7 is the longest in the game. I couldn't be fucked re-doing it so I just completed the last two mission and got Shadow.
After seeing Dimril say that I can't just use the menu option to replay that mission I loaded up one from the start of mission 7 today and then BREEZED though to the end. Once you know where to go and where most people are you can absoutely fly through the levels. I think the very last mission takes about 10 minutes. (The level were you infiltrate the fortress early is also very very quick if you know the way in and out). The house power even browned out half way through and that didn't deter me.
When I first did it I was strangling everything, much like in missions 1 to 6. But this time, to avoid ANY problems with rats/ledges/whatever killed that person, I didn't touch a single person, including the flooded level boss. The only skils I had were blink, eye-vision, stop time, the jumping/speed powerup and a stealthy boots option I found later. It meant I would just sprint around the places like a ghost
I am ultra proud. I wish I did that from the start (the not-choking thing). Anyway: I am now a clean handed ghost in addition to being a shadow.
Whenever I play through to get the high chaos ending I might just slit all the throats, or whatever is required to get the remaining cheevos.
According to steam the only rarer cheevos are these, and two of them seem really simply?
