08.06.2022Why is Cyberpunk getting so little love? Should have been on the list as a more recent game. Basically allows you to solve almost every quest without enemies ever taking note of you. Even gives you different stealth mechanics to play around with and many quests reward you for playing stealthy.

08.06.2022I used to love watching my dad play syphon filter when I was a kid.

07.06.2022Splinter cell and dishonored are definitely my favorites

07.06.2022I think payday 2 has a pretty good stealth element

07.06.2022Man, I agree with your list, but since you also included old relics you forgotten one series who pioneered stealth strategy games: the Commandos series. There was also a similar but not so good one setted in wild west called Desperados, but the Commandos series reaally rocked in the 90's and early 00's.

07.06.2022I'd say a Far Cry series counting from 3 is worth mentioning too, since you can approach some missions quietly, and take down posts silently

07.06.2022Good list, though I would replace #19 with 2010's Alpha Protocol. Yeah it's one of those games you can chose how you play it, but being as stealthy as possible really was the way to go. At the hardest difficultly it really made for a good challenge. Plus depending on some of your choices during the game there were some endings the bad guys didn't see coming. Also there were some spots in the game if you tried running in guns blazing, i mean, you were just dead.

02.06.2022What about Manhunt? where's that game?

02.06.2022Having Tenchu on the list makes this list great.
Shadow tactics resembles Commandos games, therefore I will try it.

01.06.2022Sly Cooper was possibly the very first game I fell in love with as a kid, such a fantastic game, I didn’t end up liking the following games as much but the first will always be a classic.

30.05.2022The original AC games were not stealth games at all. I remember one mission from AC2 which required you to go undetected and they removed all of the prostitutes and hay from the entire city. The game only had tiny amounts of stealth mechanics and for the only stealth mission, they took them away. AC3 is still the best AC game and you could do the entire thing without being seen. Most missions had a side objective of not being detective which made you think about how you were going to tackle it. Black Flags was obviously similar but then they changed the games and they're not as good for that now.

30.05.2022Thief's cyberpunk cousin System Shock 2 has a stealth element that I've always really enjoyed. Because they both share the Dark engine, the player in both games has this weighty quality to it that you never see anymore. You can bump into objects in the world and if you knock something heavy over, the sound it makes will draw enemies.

30.05.2022The Arkham series is stealthy right

28.05.2022I liked the stealth in Ghost of Tsushima ONCE I got the ninja suit. It felt wrong to sneak around in samurai clothes.

28.05.2022Thief The Metal Age is the best PC Game ever

28.05.2022You missed Splinter Cell series.
Mr. Ditkovich
28.05.2022I have never played Splinter Cell games before. I already downloaded Blacklist, but I will still ask if it's fine to start the series with it.
