Deus Ex: Human Revolution vs Thief 2: The Metal Age
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
Deus Ex: Human Revolution is the game that had literally blown up the Deus Ex franchise, rocketing the series to fame. Seriously, what's not to love about Deus Ex: Human Revolution? The game not only retains but also improved on many aspects that had defined the franchise, from its stealth-heavy gameplay and the amazing arsenal of augments to its choice-driven, moral dilemma-infused, well-crafted and non-linear storyline, but what made this game really stand out is its incredibly immersive, cyberpunk world that is oddly very relatable (despite being set in the future and all) and a dark yet charismatic protagonist (a bit like the Max Payne in the first 2 games) that everyone can truly feel for.As usual, the game's story has many ethically-charged decisions and choices that you'll have to make, which in turn will result in very different outcomes and sometimes, may even trigger a cascade of other events. You can also opt to avoid killing anyone in your gameplay (a full stealth run) or you could simply end every encounter with a blood bath. The best part in this game though is that at the very end, your every decision will affect the overall summary of your character's very being.
It's not at all surprising to see how Deus Ex: Human Revolution has managed to reach out and attract the interest of so many gamers. The game is incredibly well-designed and created and every bit of detail in the game is simply exquisite! If you want to get into the series, this is THE game to buy.
Thief 2: The Metal Age
Thief 2: The Metal Age is the highly anticipated, award-winning sequel to the incredible, stealth-based game, Thief (now called Thief Gold). This game features 15 new, non-linear and complex levels filled with tons of stuff to steal and guards to outwit. The AI in the game has been drastically improved as well, along with the addition of new tools to use and a compelling storyline set in an alternative world where powerful technologies and fanatical religion streneously co-existed.Despite being a rather old-school game, you can experience why this game franchise has blown up back then. Its stealth-based gameplay is pretty awesome and the plot is the best in the series. It is actually this second installment which had inducted the Thief game series into the coveted games' Hall of Fame!
