There were no mandatory kills in this level and I was successful with not killing any enemies who didn't need to be killed and therefore my number of kills remains at five. I collected all of the secrets and didn't use any glitches.

I believe that the jump at 1:22 delayed the triggering of a second tiger. Although, I think that the tiger spawned at around 2:05 despite the fact that I could've stopped the tiger from spawning had my routes and positioning been better. I lured the tigers at 6:25 so that I was able to make it to the area at 6:41 without the tigers attacking me. The shimming between 7:56-8:08 stopped a boulder from becoming active. I was very specific with timing during 9:35-9:46 so that I made it through the door but the birds didn't. The jump at 11:21 is an attractive shortcut. I used the block during 12:11-12:57 to try and trap birds. I wanted to trap all of them there and tried luring the rest of them to that area by hanging onto the ledge at 13:05-13:30 but I wasn't successful with this. My reason for trying to trap the birds was so that I could shoot the tigers underneath me at 13:42-14:39 to make them run off, but the presence of the birds affected by ability to aim for the tigers. I took the slow approach during 15:45-19:16 to help with minimising health loss.

Keep playing as you are very efficient and excel in all the games you play.

I'm sorry but I really don't have any grounds to be positive or to believe that I can be helped and get better; my experiences point in the opposite direction.

I'd like to thank you, but my online persona isn't enough for me to be happy.

I'm sorry to hear that you've had traumas of your own. I really don't feel like engaging with people on this forum though; I recently removed all of my contacts on this forum as well as most of my information. I did this because I want to isolate myself and don't have any sense of belonging on this forum or anywhere else.

Okay, that is your choice. Just know, if you ever want a friendly ear, my ear is open and I keep private conversations confidential. Again, do what you want. I'm not trying to run your life, okay buddy?

I didn't go straight on at 0:09 as this would've triggered a swordsman. Instead, I jumped to the side and then proceeded without the swordsman becoming active. The little trick at 0:51 is handy. When I was in that room I did try to shoot at the spearmen underneath me with the intention of getting them to run around a bit, hopefully creating the chance of a clear path for me when returning. I went where I did at 5:59 to see if any of the spearmen were on the bridge. There weren't, but if there had been then I would've shot them to try and make them run away, decreasing the chances of them stabbing me when using the zipwire at 6:39. I went onto the slopes at 11:04-11:24 so that I could get the enemies to run away by shooting at them.

Thank you. I've taken onboard what you've said, and I'd like to finish this sentence by thanking you once again.

Understood.
It looks you're almost finished with this pacifist run. Dragons Lair then Home sweet home. Have fun gaming Greenapple!

There were two mandatory kills in this level; a human enemy and the dragon. I was successful with not killing any enemies who didn't need to be killed and therefore my number of kills increases to seven. I collected all of the secrets and didn't use any glitches.

The first mandatory kill came at 0:58; I needed to kill this enemy for the Mystic Plague that he drops. The other mandatory kill came at 2:51; I needed to kill the dragon in order to open the door that leads towards the end of the level.

Thanks. And yes; just Home Sweet Home remaining and there's no prize for guessing how I'm going to go about that level.

[deadmando9]

Yes, no guessing. You are going to complete Home sweet home with your excellent skills.

There were sixteen mandatory kills in this level; every single enemy is a mandatory kill. Therefore my number of kills increases to and finishes on twenty three. I collected all of the secrets and didn't use any glitches.

This level doesn't change in the slightest when doing a Pacifist Run for this game. However, I stuck to my tradition of luring most of the enemies into the shower and killing them there and setting myself on fire at the very end as ways of trying to make the final cutscene more entertaining.

I was referencing the fact that I was going to kill most of the enemies in the bathroom and then set myself on fire at the end as a way of trying to make the cutscene more amusing. You don't really need any skill in order to complete Home Sweet Home in a Pacifist Run due to the fact that the level doesn't change in the slightest.

Very well.

All of the videos/levels merged into one:

I recently uploaded this challenge while doing one video for each level. I have now decided to put all of the levels together into one big video so that the whole of the challenge and all of the levels are together in one video. There is nothing new in this video; I haven't re-done this challenge. What I've done is taken the videos that have already been uploaded and re-uploaded them into one video. I finished the game with all forty eight secrets and twenty three kills, which is the current minimum number of kills that can possibly be achieved when completing this game under these restrictions.

That is a line that I've been presented with many times throughout the years.

Indeed, and Lara breaking the fourth wall is unique in the Tomb Raider series. When I first saw it I laughed my a** off.
