Your poll is missing the 'mixed/combination' option!
I love to be the Marksman but a big problem with a lot of FPS and other games where that option is available is that once you take out that first enemy, EVERYONE on that map knows where you are (not to mention the Far Cry and, Just Cause 2 problem of enemies seeing you from 2+km away)
in western RPG's I prefer the stealth route but I have been dabbling in offensive magic (which I guess would be heavy, what with the area of effect spells)
For the most part though: it's a mix between stealth and, marksman. If I'm playing Batman or Hitman though, I mess with those bastards. [sub]speaking of Batman, can you knock out lights in Arkham City? I hated how you couldn't in Asylum and in the movies there's always the scene where Batman breaks a light, the thug finds the batarang then turns around and is whisked away [sub]well, in Begins and Batman (89) anyway...[/sub][/sub]
