Spoilers ahead.
After completing the first couple of missions, I was in the apartment building where the guard is patrolling in the hall. I started to swing my dagger/blackjack in his direction and he began yelling at me. I kept this up for a little wile longer and he said something like "I won't tell you again... stop threatening me!". I kept swinging and he then pulled out his sword and came after me! It just really made me smile... especially after playing Invisible War where the AIs were *way* too lenient.
I also enjoyed being a menace in the city... I would knock someone out, place the body in a well-lit area and hide in the shadows near by. Eventually hammerites/guards/pagans/enforcers would come by and start searching for the assassin. Needless to say it became a war zone!
I think the funniest thing I ever saw though was at the small hammer church in the city (not the mission). I went up the elevator, and noticed there were gates at the top. Then the idea struck me. What if I led a hammerite through the gates, but made the elevator descend before he could get on it? I've never laughed so hard in all my life! As the lift began to descend, the gates in front of the lift closed. The hammerite was now in between the gates and the top of the descending lift. The gates pushed the hammerite off the ledge, and he landed on top of the elevator, whose ceiling was comprised of bars and not just solid. Needless to say, the ragdoll physics took over. His legs were hanging through the ceiling, and I heard him taking damage as the lift went down. A moment later, he died and flopped down through the top of the elevator. Try it! I guarantee you'll laugh. I had to reload and try it a few more times because the outcome will always be different. Sometimes the elevator actually splits apart and the top goes back up, while the bottom goes down to the bottom floor. That's very strange.

I experienced lots of ROFL moments in Auldale during Gammall's rampage.
A guard started chasing me once from the small square in front of the museum's stairs. I didn't want to mess with him, so I lured him to Gammall and hit her with the dagger... :cheeky: Needless to say, she went berserk and started shooting at us. I was fleeing, but the guard didn't get hit somehow, followed me again... but so did Gammall ! She crossed the small bridge through the canal and kept chasing us, until we got to the Pagan Park ! :eek: She couldn't fit there anymore, so she started to battle with anyone who walked by. I managed to slip into the shadows and view the whole firefight between her and the Pagans. Heard "You waits, I bez a monster killer !" and the "Wrrrrhhhh... Ddddddiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeeee !" shreek more than a hundred times. :)
Even more ROFL was when I was wrecking havok in the Pagan park. Once my health had seriously diminished and I had no healing potions left, I headed back to the underpass (or how should I call that tunnel). As you know, it has a mild slope. A Pagan swordsman and a female shaman were hot on my heels. I stopped for a moment and threw 2 or 3 oil flasks on the slope. I ignited the oil puddle at the entrance, the shaman slipped on it, fell into the flame and got fried. The swordsman was more lucky, but he started skidding down the puddles directly to me, wawing his hands to gain balance and uttering something like "Aaaaaahhhhhh, woooooodsssssiiieeeeeeee..." :cheeky: I aimed a fire arrow at him when he got close enough. The expression on his face was really funny, he looked quite shocked. :) I released the arrow, he got blown up... and so did I ! Forgot about the self-lethality of firearrows on close distances. :o
I jumped on the cart near the fence's store, while two gargoyles were pursueing me. I waited to see what happens. Of course, they kept bumping into the cart until I was nearly at Drept's office window. I waited for several minutes and watched them bump into the cart, when I suddenly realised, that the racket they were making resembled some reeeeaaaallly bad techno tracks... It really had a certain amount of rhytm and melody, accompanied by depressive "lyrics" : "Found you and found you and found you and found you... Crush and kill and crush and kill and kill and crush ! Flee and flee and flee and flee and run and... DIE !" :thumb:
Once I dispossed of them, I threw all of my 5 oil flasks and 2 mines under the cart. I stepped back for a few metres and shot one of the oil puddles with a firearrow. The explosion propelled the cart as high as the roof was, then it safely landed back on it's two wheels. :D
