How would we feel about being able to kill the xenomorph in Alien Isolation 2?

Me and my buddy were talking about this, and going back and forth on whether this would work…

It’s a natural evolution of the game, and might follow a similar step up of intensity like we see in the first 2 movies

If it were possible, how could they do it? Obviously no one wants this game to turn into an action shooter, but having some limited options (if done right) might make the intensity of the game even greater…

Imagine situations where you need to place traps, set up turrets, or otherwise defend yourself with limit resources. The levels could be far broader and larger, requiring you to set up mechanism to monitor map. You could view motion detectors, turret ammo, trap status etc. The aliens could be much less forgiving if you’re able to fight back

This is something they could introduce slowly….

Early game: no aliens can be killed
Early-mid game: you manage to trap and kill one as part of a major plot beat in the story. The game has revealed to you that they can indeed die
Mid game: you have access to traps and turrets you need to use to get through certain missions. They have a limited capacity to kill, and you can monitor ammo / activity in parts of the map
Late game: you have a limited access to bombs, or a powerful gun that could kill or wound the aliens
Final act: Only now you have a real opportunity to properly fight back against a swarm. Potentially get access to the mech suit. End the game in more of a blast.

What do you guys think? Could this risk ruining what made the first game so good? Or could the ability to kill them actually make the sequel more interesting?
