The Looking Glass's Thief is the best stealth game series , the original stealth games. Absolute masterpieces, all three games. Now, what makes the Metal Age the best, in my opinion: + More complex plot than in Thief 1, comparable to Thief 3. + Better level design that makes you rely on stealth only (Escape! from Thief 1 - I am looking at you). Numerous ways to go through the levels. + All the goodies from Thief 1 and more! Compared to Thief 3 the first two games give you significantly more freedom and Thief 2 does not disappoint in that regard. + Tougher missions due to all the Mechanist inventions getting in your way. + Very various environments and missions. + No Bugbeasts, Praise be to Karras!
