Poll: How do you like your stealth?

[The Madman]

As close to Thief 2 as possible, that game pretty much got stealth perfectly in my mind.

I like the option of stealth. I don't like being forced into it, mostly because then I fail the mission for reasons I, personally, don't see fit. "you didn't do it our way so it's wrong". Call of Duty does that in its campaign missions

Kind of mixed, I like to play sneaky but if shit hits the fan I like to have other options available to ensure I survive.

Mark of the Ninja pretty much nails it.

I prefer my stealth optional. You can sneak through if you want, or you can beat the crap out of everyone. At the same time, I want a gameplay advantage to stealth like in Deus Ex HR where it is often fairly dangerous to try and kill everyone without taking at least a couple of them out with stealth first - at least until you become god of killing things, but anyway...
