What do I do in this starting area?
  • 1 of 4: Climb down.
  • 2 of 4: The big chandelier will fall into the water below, and you along with it if you're on it.
  • 3 of 4: You could stay on the part that doesn't fall and shoot the Ghouls from above before dropping down if you want.
  • 4 of 4: However, if you drop with the chandelier, you won't take any damage, and you can quickly run for a nearby door as soon as you're down.
