SS2 pacifist challenge run

[Nameless Voice]

I decided to do another pacifist challenge run of System Shock 2, only this time I've recorded the whole run.

The rules are:

• No damage dealt to enemies
• Impossible difficulty
• No damage dealt to anything else if avoidable, with exceptions allowed for mandatory destruction of
  
  • Black eggs
  • Membranes
  • Nerve clusters
• Only allowed weapons are the psi amp and stasis field generator, all other weapons are forbidden
• No hostile psi powers (with the one exception being allowed use of cryokinesis for mandatory destruction, if there is no other alternative)
• No psionic invisibility
• No hacking turrets or Imposed Neural Restructuring
• No exploiting prior knowledge (e.g. have to legitimately find a code before I'm allowed to use it.)

Played with SCP Beta 4 + cosmetic mods.

YouTube playlist of the run, 8 parts, runtime: ~2h 42m


It's not really a Let's Play as such, because I reloaded a lot while attempting this, and the final video is only of the actual run, not the attempts where I reloaded.

I just finished watching the first video and the end of the last video.
This is awesome!
Thank you for sharing! I look forward to watching them all.

Impressive!

Are you playing with a trackball?

[Nameless Voice]

Nope, just a normal mouse (Steelseries Sensei Ten). Do I turn strangely?

Nice. Watching the videos got my heart rate up.

Your facing movements generally seem a bit abrupt and jittery. Maybe a high mouse sensitivity thing? Contrast with, for example, this guy.

[Nameless Voice]

I definitely have a much higher sensitivity than him. That feels very slow to me.

[heywood]

Yes, his movement seems exceedingly slow. I think I fall in the middle of the twitch spectrum, but closer to your speed than his.

I tip my hat to your knowledge of these levels. You play quick and I could never survive that.
