Even the developers said it didn't have nearly as good stealth as Thief did...
Deus Ex is an excellent game for other reasons, such as merging stealth with action and RPG.

RE4 was such a defining game it changed how games across multiple genres were made for years (and still do).

The RE1 remake for GC defined jack shit.

>>386838912
Actually based around playing as a team and not a single player game with tacked on MP elements

>>386839361

RE4 is an action game, not a survival horror one

Gears of War did the same as well, and it was a garbage game that made an entire generation of other garbage games copy its garbage cover mechanics. Don't confuse a game's influence with it actually being good.

It is survival horror, just with better action.

>>386839996

It has no survival and no horror, it is an action shooter

DMC wasn't the first action game you dumb twat, it redefined the genre which 3 did all over again by being better in pretty much every way. You could say it spawned the 3D action genre but you haven't bothered to form a sentence that conveys that information.
