Pics or it didn ' t happen . ?<| sep |> Some of those changes were made in response to player complaints though . The footsteps change , for instance , was made because people complained about how weirdly inconsistent it was that guards would investigate footsteps of you were in a trespassing outfit but not if you were in a guard outfit , even though they couldn ' t see you . I was one of those complainers . . There ' s no perfect solution to the problem . you might not like the decision they landed on , but it was definitely a decision made in response to players . I also wouldn ' t be surprised if changes to subduing were done by watching how casual players played the game . Changes to cameras and headturning seem to have been prompted by other considerations .
