A Game Where You Don't Have To Kill Anyone

You need educating with a series called Thief. I'd rather play a game where i don't have to kill because there's skill in it.
Gamers like this make me sad.
That said, Raiden makes me sad too

You never kill anyone in that awesome King Kong game. Just creatures.
Actually, I think the entire concept and how that game was handled was genius. Shame the last level sucked and the entire game was so short, but it was still a meaty and immersive experience. Personally, I think I might have enjoyed it more than Half-Life 2. Well, the first person sections, anyway.

It's only because people complained about how they turned Splinter Cell Conviction in a run and gun, rather than a stealth game. In the old Splinter Cell games it was probably just about possible to go through the entire game without actually killing anybody. They're just pointing out that they're sticking with the roots of the game.
Hmmm, Heavy Rain technicly, you can't get the best ending without one of the characters killing someone, but it is possible.
You kill GLaDOS at the end.JaymesFogarty said:
In the Portal 2 trailer, she mentions coming back to life after having been killed by the player.
The GL stands for Genetic Life, so it CAN be killed.
Iji. You will do a pacifist runthrough. Maybe not the first time, but it'll happen. I actually switched to a pacifist runthrough halfway into the game. Check it out here: [link]http://www.remar.se/daniel/iji.php[/link]. Do it. Do it now.
Knocking over gun turrets, taking down GLaDOS and incinerating the companion cube don't count? I guess that would make any game with robots and zombies as enemies are games where you aren't killing anyone...JaymesFogarty said:
It's possible in Morrowind iirc, and possible in some Black Ops missions (the game will take control of your character periodically though, and kill certain people).
EDIT:
EDIT:
Enemy officers die; there's always a cutscene or a one liner that make it very clear whether they've died or just retreated. The player must deal the final blow to enemy commanders, so it's inevitable that you'll kill some.AldirTK said:

The game never pretends to be devoid of violence perpetrated by the player. The game does however imply that the player should never use a gun and yet puts the player in plenty of situations where using a gun is the most reasonable solution to a problem. And even if one chooses not to use a gun, I'm quite sure there are cops that would not have survived the beating I delivered unto them and I'm equally certain at least one character is killed by the player after being kicked out of a helicopter resulting in a thousand foot fall.Phoenixlight said:
Lessee... several Geneforge games. Thief. Almost no kills require for Planescape: Torment. Technically possible in Arcanum, but in practice not. Iji makes a very, very big point out of this.
All I can think of, off the top of my head, that hasn't already been mentioned.

now the game lost some charm for me...tho i never played it.
There is nothing living in that game you could possibly kill. The companion cube is certainly not animate, the turrets (though almost adorable with their programmed voices) are also not real, and the closest thing to living that you kill is still a robot. I don't think it counts if they're not living.badgersprite said:
I will JUST about accept that. But generally, I don't accept that you can, "kill" robots. It just doesn't really work; unless of course it has enough of a character, (such as GLaDOS) to be considered living.LightOfDarkness said:
I think it is a challenging option in a game where you are expected to fight. But one of my favorite old games is called "Below the Root". You did not fight at all. You were searching for a lost person and developing special powers. It had political factions and gliding-flight in a huge tree city. It's bound to have a mod out there if you want to see an interesting game where you don't kill. It is really old graphics though!Polaris19 said:
