According to errant signal
"Stealth is about dominating in a position of weakness"
ok

"Games like
Dishonored
The first deus ex
The early splinter cell games
Thief
Are real stealth games"

I call BS,

In Dishonored you can go through any level by just running and blinking all over the place, this doesn't fall in your definition at all

in the first deus ex you could literally shoot your way through the entire game with no consequences other than Sam Carter wearing a frowny face decal for 2 seconds in the early game.

In the early splinter cell games, you have a point, that is untill you get the SC-20K, you know, the gun that you can kill everyone with in the game with, and I'm talking about Pandora tommorow.

You have a point with thief though

"
Games like
Deus ex Human revolution
the new splinter cell games
where stealth is an addition to the power fantasy"

Yeah,
Deus ex HR, the game where you die in two hits for even try to shoot anyone, and you can get detected easily is such a power fantasy!

you have a point with the new splinter cell games though.


So tell me,

What exactly IS a stealth game?

"You have a point with thief though"

Why even bother making this thread if you're going to agree with like half of it anyways?

"the new splinter cell games" should not be a thing since there are only 2 that aren't considered stealth games by a lot and 1 of them is a very good stealth game.

Blacklist and Convictions only similarities are the newer "fluid" movement mechanics unlike last 6th gen games where Sam felt really heavy.

A Stealth game should be where you are outnumbered and have to use the environment to your advantage

a stealth game is just like any FPS game but you die easier

why do that when you can just run up to the guards and shoot/stab/ them in the face?
