Completed without help?

[RayMarden]

I got stuck in one part...from the demo no less.

I feel really stupid now, but I couldn't figure out...

Spoiler below!

...the part with the burning barrel and the fire alarms. It occured to me that I needed to set the drum ablaze and it would trigger the alarm. However - in what I could consider a very bad game moment - when my flare would not set it ablaze, I was just mentally stumped.

I had seen and used the broken fuse box and I saw it sparking when you pull the lever, but I never made the final connection. Because you had dealt with a fuse box earlier in the demo (and in the previous game,) I just had it set in my mind that I would get a cable to repair it later.

Basically, duh @ me. I did manage everything else, though. Of course, I did read that one computer manual a lot of times before I figured out the correct options.
