Dishonored vs Thief 2: The Metal Age
Dishonored
Dishonored is one of the most highly acclaimed, first-person action-stealth game that puts you into the role of a supernatural assassin set in a city, Dunwall, where somehow technology and the paranormal collide. Unbeknown to you, the cost of your supernatural abilities that had made you into one of the most efficient assassins ever is incredibly high and once the cost is made known, you can't help but feel betrayed and hence, your path to exacting your vengeance on the dark forces who gave you these powers begins.The gameplay in Dishonored is amazingly free-form - you can approach each assassination your way as long as they are stealthy enough to keep you alive. Aside from your new-found ability to possess any living creature and stop time itself, you can use distractions and the pockets of darkness to your advantage as well. Interestingly, your chosen way to kill will affect the world around you and the outcomes of your missions will also change as a result. There are plenty of ways for you to customize your character to fit your play style too.
Since its release, Dishonored has garnered a massive amount of approval from fans and critics alike. After all, it has managed to provide a stealth-based game that's not only unique but also incredibly immersive and addictive to play. If you enjoy stealth games with a bit of extra mystique, this is definitely 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!
