10 Video Games Bosses You Didn't Realise Can Be Defeated Peacefully
5. Erich Soders - Hitman
The work of a world-class assassin is obviously not a profession built around compassion and mercy. However, even though Agent 47 never lets his targets escape, that doesn't mean he always has to dirty his own hands with their blood.
Sometimes, he can simply watch others do the work for him.
Generally speaking, each target in the Hitman series can be killed in a variety of different ways. One of the targets in Hokkaido, Erich Soders, can even be taken out without the player ever having to pick up a gun or an explosive duck.
You see, the man in question is a patient at the secret Hokkaido clinic, and the chief surgeon responsible for his treatment just so happens to be the son of a man Soders assassinated. All you have to do is help the surgeon uncover Soders' past crimes, and then the man will do all the work for you, purposefully botching Soders' surgery to avenge his long-lost father.
See? Even a seasoned killer like 47 can afford to use more peaceful solutions every now and then.
