    There just aren’t that many first person stealth games, and none of them have topped thief. There was dishonored but it wasn’t a pure stealth game. Same with Prey. It’s simply a unique game that only came into existence by accident late in the dev process.

    No one would risk creating a first person stealth game these days without inserting a lot of combat options that thief didn’t have.

      Gloomwood is the only close spiritual successor, but its been in early access for a long time (though it does still get substantial updates).
