Why are sequels and remakes hates in the gaming community? 'Thief' may have the answer.
From outer space to stealing in Europe, The Epic Games Store has two free games you might like.
The Thief game series has had many ups-and-downs, and 2014's reboot showed a great deal of promise nearly a decade ago.
This would be such a great franchise to reboot. A darker game than Dishonored, but focused around stealth and large scale heists from an oppressive monarchy.
That's probably my dream game. I love immersive sims and stealth!
The last one was a trainwreck and has been in the bargain bin since just after launch. If they bring it back, they need a massive change in direction.
Jesus the last installment sells at about 2 euro and even that is over paying for it. Absolutely diabolical game
The online retailer Fanatical has not one but four new game bundles that should interest PC gamers.
They're not
And you're confusing reboot with remake
If it was a remake, people would have gobbled it up. But it was a reboot made for plebs, of course it's gonna be shit.
Bad remakes are hated. Good ones aren't. And if people are sceptical about yet-to-be-released remakes and reboots it's because remakes and reboots have a reputation for being bad. Good ones are certainly possible, and they do exist, but it's hard to get excited when so many of them are bad.
Probably because the devs change so much of what was loved about the original when they do a remake.
Thief could have been better if it was more open and sandboxy. But it felt like a very linear experience. The next Thief should be more focused on player choice
