    Weird stupid pedantic gripe but the way the headline is written is confusing. Isn’t it only possible “years later” that anything even could be considered a classic?

        Yeah I would interpret that as a wager that it’s going to hold up to the test of time. But we’re really in the weeds with that one

            Yeah I have fond memories of being blown away by it when it came out, I don’t know if any stealth game has grabbed me like Dishonored did.

              I haven’t played Thief but it’s supposed to be a big inspiration for Dishonored afaik. Splinter Cell is fantastic but plays so differently it’s hard to compare… I guess Prey 2017 is closest, if you play a stealth build. There’s also Styx but I haven’t played it yet. Apparently pretty cool
