Dishonored is great and OP is right. Fuck you hipsters.
Thief is good too.
>>385099253
Istrongly agree
>>385099271
>What if we make Thief...but also give the player ebic abilities and cool takedown moves, cause you know, kids might get bored.
>>385099067
Game is a bit rough around the edges, and actual combat is a bit lacking but it's good
>>385099436
Damn right. Styx basically shits on everything modern stealth, but it's maybe too hardcore for your average player these days because combat really is not an option in most cases.
It's amazing the difference a bit of fluff does to sell the experience.
If this was dishonored and I blinked past the guards it'd be all sweet, since that's teleporting and shit.
But because thi4f is a bit more grounded me swoocing my way past these two like a gay t-rex just look stupid as fuck.
>assassination
>stealth game
Pick one.
I miss the Tenchu Games. I hope I got the spelling for that right.
>>385099720
I don't see the problem here
>>385099406
Sounds like a better Thief.
>>385100314
The whole point of Thief is the sense of vulnerability, playing the weakest creature in a game and succeeding.
I can't play dishonored 2 because I'm an autist I have to be 100% non lethal ghost. Doesn't help that the game encourages you to play as invisible Jesus
>>385099067
Dishonored is firmly 'above-average' OP
>>385100405
If you're a casual. Once you get enough money to get flashbombs going, you're good to go. But you were a kid when you played Thief and couldn't game the system, so it will forever be retained on your mind as this ultra hardcore game it isn't. Dishonored is great and you're a faggot.
>>385100405
What >>385100497 said, minus the namecalling, neither games are that difficult
>>385099675
Because swoop is simply a get out of jail free card for people who suck at sneaking around. Shit, I didn't even realize it had a hidden cooldown at first because you can use it so often.
>>385100405
>Stealth games are about vulnerability
That's where you're wrong fuccboi.
Stealth games are about being the best goddamn dude there is, it doesn't matter how murderous and killy the guards or monsters are, I'm just that fucking good they won't ever know I was there. It's not your vulnerability, it's about just how vulnerable everything else is, whether your going to do anything about that or not
>>385099406
>>385100405
>Play Dishonored without abilities
>Woah modern Thief
Nobody is forcing you to use the abilities and moves.
>>385100556
>>385100497
>flashbombs
*blocks your path*also if you dont restart the mission upon being discovered, you played the game wrong
>>385100497
thief on higher difficulties actually has new objectives that very clearly enforce playing stealthily. not to mention that what you bring up is a good thing - player should be able to master the game in his own way.

>he doesn't just roll with the punches on his first playthrough and then do a true ghost playthrough next
>>385100625
I actually really like how Dishonored can be played entirely straight without any powers, even Blink which you're stuck with. It is the preferred experience in my opinion.
>>385100625
>play dishonored without abilities
>whoa it's dull as shit
The game is clearly designed around assassination. That doesn't make it bad, but it's not exactly Thief when you remove its core mechanics.
>>385100625
>dude just arbitrarily limit yourself
Every time.
>>385100851
Me too, the main reason pretentious stealth fans seem to shit on it is because they feel like they're being forced to rampage and use the cuhrayzee powers. If you don't like that part of the game then you can literally just not use it.
>>385100904
Exhibit A.
>no Sly Cooper posts
And I though /v/ was actually a place for non Reddit tier discussions...
>>385100889
I love Dishonored but I have to agree. The lighting and floor material mechanics of Thief made the game what it is, I don't even think Dishonored can properly be compared to Thief, they are different games with different mechanics, and Thief is the true sneaky sneaky stealth game.
>>385100904
Are you fucked in the head anon?
Ghost runs in and off themselves are an arbitrary limit and are one of the most popular ways to play stealth games.

DUDE JUST DONT KILL MONSTERS IN DOOM
DOOM IS A STEALTH GAME NOW LMAO
You'll probably like this if you liked Commandos/Desperados.
Mark of the ninja is pretty good too.
>>385101045
Not the slightest bit similar to what we're talking about here.
>>385101046
Can't wait to see what they're releasing next for the game. They teased something.
I had some games called Splinter Cell when I was little. I don't remember much of the first two but the third was great.
>>385100967
>baby's first stealth game
>>385100967
Sly cooper is actually a stealth game?
I thought it was a platformer thing like Ratchet and Clack or Jak and Daxter.
Is Aragami good? Even with a friend?

Top tier stealth games need a sense of tension. It isn't there if you're just a killing machine with half the gadgets existing for that purpose.
Also levels designed around 'do it YOUR way' will never be as good as ones designed purely for stealth.
Dishonored is great in its own way but it's not a good stealth game

Mark of the Ninja:
>complete freedom of choice
>beautiful level design
>relaxing Zen music
>amazing art style
>can be played on a potato machine
>>385099541
One of the many things I love about this game that I rarely see these days is that if you are surrounded by people they will all attack at the same time.
>>385102129
>complete freedom of choice
I doubt it
>>385102129
first played this on a 2011 Macbook Pro. can confirm.
>>385102221
Well you can't romance the enemies but you can do a lot of stuff at least
>>385101045
You actually have to kill to progress you Mongoloid, whereas in Dishonored you can progress with or without powers
>>385099067
Why Emily didn't wear the mask? Missed opportunity
>>385101046
Playing it right now. Great game
>>385100790
Maintenance droid is that you?
>>385102129
>>beautiful level design
masterfully crafted level design
>>385099152
What's this game called?
>>385101046
My GOTY so far. I'm surprised it's not being talked about more often. I enjoyed it more than BotW, Nier and P5.
>>385099406
> I don't know what an Immersive Sim is
Thief and Dishonored are in the same genre, Thief is entirely stealth oriented, Dishonored isn't, that's all. They didn't try to make a Thief game then decided to add abilities.
Faggots, the lot of you.
