I have been playing stealth games non lethally for years, Splinter cell, Mark of the ninja, Hitman, etc... Note that in most of these games, there are usually available lethal arsenals that would either lower your scores or make you easily detectable.
So even when the developers try to appeal to all the play styles, they would punish you for having fun your way (although you could say it makes the game too easy.) Metal gear solid 5 for example, has a huge list of fun weapons but they punish you in scoring if you choose to use them.
Non-lethal was how I approached Dishonored 2. However, on my second play through, I tried High chaos ghost and I had so much more fun than my previous Low chaos playthrough.
So, how do you play your stealth games? Is there a game that balance both styles without compromising difficulty or punishing you for choosing to play in a certain way?
