| Guide 12/26/18 11:29:47 PM #7: | I love stealth in general, but the what makes the series unique is also its biggest flaw, at least before the 2016 reboot which I haven't played. The maps are generally nonlinear and multipathed, which is nice, but once you know what to do, you've sucked most of the flavor out. Sure you can go for other routes to see what happens, but the puzzle is already solved, and often, the patience required to handle the rest of the content is annoying, because you're waiting to take action for something you already know how to do. It's like a red light on your gameplay ride. Cool the first time, annoying on replays. I recently went through Blood Money again, because it was free from games with gold. The unlockable weapons serve almost no purpose. You either glitch them into making a stealth run feasible yet slower, or you're essentially turning it into a rushed mob hit instead of a classy stealth run. Which is its own kinda fun, but the novelty is cheap. --- [break the meta] https://youtu.be/Acn5IptKWQU ... Copied to Clipboard! |
