    Im at a loss as to how the Dishonored series wasnt included. Those games always provide, fascilitate and reward stealth only gameplay. And the stealth gameplay in the series is sublime

    One thing I discovered about myself personally is that Im not really much a fan of stealth games, but I like games with stealth elements, if that makes sense. Like, for me, Ive had more fun in games that have stealth segments, rather than the entire game being centered around stealth. I mean, there are of course exceptions like Mark of the Ninja and Dishonored, but for the most part, games where Ive had fun with stealth it wasnt really that big to the core of the game or enough to put it in the stealth genre. Games like the Batman Arkham series stealth parts I absolutely loved. Also I have fond memories of Slys missions in the Sly series, as well as I miss Assassins Creed Brotherhoods multiplayer because the stealth in that game was super fun and so were the chases, and having to use stealth to both break chase and hide, but use it to sneak up on your target.

    Watch Dogs 2 is literally known for having broken stealth that never makes sense. Worst part about it is that whenever you get spotted by an enemy who you then take out without him making a sound, the entire area will then IMMEDIATELY be alerted, even tho no one heard anything.

    Having sekiro and watch dogs 2 but not including mark of the ninja, styx, thief, dishonored is really one of the choices ever made.

    Watch dogs 2? You’ve got to be fucking kidding me. Every time you took down about three guards stealthily, somehow the rest of the guards would suddenly become suspicious; even if they weren’t in sight of you or anywhere near you. Also, it seems kind of ironic that for a video about stealth games, most of your metal gear solid 5 footage had almost every guard in sight shooting the shit out of you.

    Pandora Tomorrow instead of Chaos Theory, and TLOU PT 2? Really? Terrible list. Maybe upload a couple times a week instead of every day. Also hilarious that you couldn't help but put TLOU PT 1 higher on the list, since everything about it is way better than PT 2. The AI in PT 2 is basically retarded, the gunplay is awful, and don't even get me started on that story. "An intricately woven tale about the never ending cycle of revenge." Ah yes, so intricate. That's why there's no ability to spare anyone. When they "surrender", they sit there for a minute, and then go back to shooting at you after a short time. Revenge is bad, but Abby gets her revenge and pretty much gets away with it. Only Ellie suffers permanent consequences for pursuing it. Remember when Abby was about to kill Dina, Ellie told her she was pregnant and pleaded for her to stop, and Abby said "good"? Before almost going through with it? Only relenting because her friend begged her to stop? Then you have Ellie, who accidentally killed Abby's pregnant friend (because neither of the people there with her could be bothered to say "wait she's pregnant", including the father of the child). Ellie was traumatized and heartbroken. Long and short of it is, that story is terrible. Abby gets pretty much everything she wants after pursuing her revenge, and Ellie gets railroaded. There's not even a choice to kill or spare Abby, because the devs knew that most people would kill her, because she's a horrible person. Never bothers to ask Joel why he killed her father, just brutally tortures and murders him in front of his surrogate daughter. But Abby's dad saved a zebra, so we should feel bad for her. What a joke. "Intricately woven" like a coiled dog turd.
