Killing people sneakily is incredibly pleasing to any and all gamers. This is evident when we look at how popular doing stealthy runs of Dishonoured was, despite the more up-front killing techniques being so incredible. One of the most satisfying and memorable stealthy kills in games happened in the 90s, and it happened in the Facility level of Goldeneye. In a toilet. After dropping down into a cubicle of your very own through a system of vents, you then saunter over to the next cubicle over and interrupt an unsuspecting guards wee break with a bullet to the face.
