    Does anybody feel that they've got a good enough handle on the new sight cone mechanic to explain it to me? With some monsters, it looks like you can tell which way they're facing, but with others, they always seem to face the same way no matter what, and whether or not they'll spot you seems a bit arbitrary. Even when you can see which way the monsters are facing, they seem to turn around at random times as well.

    Also what, if anything, do the sight cones have to do with the sneakiness stat?

    I haven't figured it out yet, but I have noticed it's easier than ever to herd monsters and avoid confrontation until you're prepared. Right now they're really easy.
