Just out of curiosity, if you don't care about alarms going off, why did you take out that camera? All it can do is set off the alarm.
I don't care from a gameplay perspective, but those sirens are pretty damn annoying. I had just left an area full of them and was hoping for 30 seconds of peace.
I try to avoid sirens and contact and be stealthy, but since I'm loading solely upon death I have to live with all those times I'm caught dragging a corpse, or hacking a computer, or just barely missing that headshot, or dropping a guy that I think is alone but has a buddy around a corner and outside the radar looking at him. The rush of having 5 guys come at me while I scramble to pick them off or seek cover is far more rewarding than 500 XP, especially considering I have about 10 praxis points I don't intend to use already.
Yep, in a game with emergent gameplay, it's awesome if you don't quickload. So much cool stuff can happen.
I plan to try a No Contact Ghost without quicksaving or loading next.
