Thief vs. Dishonored: Superior Stealth Game Showdown

Dishonered was everything I wished I could do in thief. Its just amazing!

Theif still takes the title, though- in Dishonored, your goal isn't thievery at all. It's just an option. I love them both, but Thief will forever remain my favorite….

Probably going against popular opinion here, but I unironically had more fun playing Thief 2014 than I did with Dishonored. Since it emphasizes hiding in shadows , ghosting and avoiding combat a lot more than Dishonored, where you can just wipe out entire squads of goons. Both are still pretty shit as far as stealth games are concerned though.
Honestly if you want a good modern stealth game, give both these games a miss and just play Styx or Gloomwood.

2020 here. And i dare to say, thief is actually a better game if you didnt compare it to dishonored. thief had its own style, and overshadowed by dishonored because its released almost at the same time.

Dishonored is better than this teef game you are talking about, I played the original Thief games before so I know what comparisons we are talking about here,
in terms of which game is a better stealth game, well its Dishonored hands down, but problem is that Dishonored and Teef made the requirement bar to be a stealth game so low that it merely requires the option of stealth in it unlike the inspiration they are trying to imitate or improve on.
all in all those games are not stealth games nor do I think that teef 4* is a continuation of the Thief series, but if you were to ask which game does stealth better when in comparison to one another, than again its Dishonored, despite being an action slasher first and a possibly stealth game second.

I find Dishonored 2 better than GTA V or MGSV

Dishonored is MASTERPIECE!
Still Thief didnt deserve all the flack.

I had thief in 2014 and played it with pleasure, until I saw dishonored gameplay. Idk why I didn’t buy dishonored at the moment. So I was playing thief with thoughts like “Ah, it’s not that bad, it’s just like dishonored”

Oh this was about Thief 4? I thought this was gonna be a video where Dishonored would put up a good fight against the old legends but ultimately face defeat.

Seven years later and im still mad this man took a dump on my favorite game vs. My other favorite game

Thief: Exists

Dishonored: "Clear the line!"

The older thief games are a masterpiece. Even the thief 3(deadly shadows) was a great game, even thou they changed the game's mechanics completely, it still had a great story. I was completely disapointed with thief 4… they seemed to care more about the realism than everything else. I was so happy yo hear that my childhood game was being released again, and then… a very sentimental garrett, without stephen russel's voice… no hammerites, no pagans… it was a complete disaster…

Thief 3 And 4!!!!!

The only I point I disagree with here is the one about the first person immersion. In dishonored leave alone animation but corvo doesn't even have a body beyond his arms. No legs, no torso nothing. They clearly didn't wanted to spend time making animations out of combat. The game tries to make up for it by the head bobbing feature when running or climbing. But it was simply not enough. Dishonored is not the only first person game to do this but this is definitely annoying when a 2012 game does that. Also no, freedom of movement alone doesn't make an immersive first person game when you literally feel like a floating camera. And the animations don't even need to be perfect, just having a complete body and some simple animations would make the game much more immersive than it is. Trust me, I speak from experience, my Gta San Andreas with that first person mod feels more immersive than dishonored despite the dated graphics and 2004 animations which were not even meant for first person gameplay.

Still playing Dishonored❤️

I mostly agree with this but the last comparison seemed very biased, I don't care what you tell me dishonored is NOT an immersive first person experience, you don't have a shadow, a torso, legs anything except the hands which aren't even animated out of combat and magic. I installed a first person mod in gta san andreas and seriously it feels more immersive than dishonored does.

Dishonored was inspired by Thief

It’s hard to compare these games because thief is more of a stealth/looter game whereas dishonored is more stealth/shooter

I can't believe there was even a time where I was unsure as to which game I should get among these two.

Team thief

Truth is, we need more stealth games.
Dishonored is indeed the best, by the way.
