    Default Did you storm Shinra or sneak in?

    What it says on the tin (I have become like Wolf!)

    I always snuck in through the staircase and then by the guards because it just seemed like the obvious tactical choice instead of barging in and fighting a bunch of people. I did that once just to see what it was like and didn't care for it. Plus, I enjoy the interaction between the characters while they're going up the stairs.

    I always stormed in until my last playthrough I snuck in. I much prefer sneaking.

    I went up the stairs to get that elixir. Plus I wanted to conserve items and not fight in a bunch of battles before necessary. I'm sure the exp would have been nice, though.

    Got the elixir, then trekked back down the stairs so I could storm the castle building. I like killing things.
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    This time I'm going for the Barret date so I'm going to choose the option storm in, but then I'm going to sneak in anyway as you can choose one option then do the other.

    Yeah I generally do this. I always say we're bustin' in too then proceed to take the stairs to grab the Elixir. I always come back down for those sweet experience points in the main building.

    I love this part of the game.

    I, too, sneak in to grab the loot, and then backtrack to smurf trout up, because Shinra needs to learn to fear AVALANCHE. They are not safe, not even in the HQ; my wrath will follow them to the ends of the Planet.

    They see me rolling. They hating, patrolling.
    Trying to catch me riding dirty.
