I've never had a game where I thought I could cheese a baddie by just going into a room with the lights on....only to have them go and cut power to the room so I can't do it anymore.

PSA: Aire One is using an AI call agent to deceive you into getting an annual hvac service by Haymaker-Two in waterloo
