Thief II: The Metal Age (2000 Video Game)
5/10
Not As Good As The Dark Project Or Theif Gold But Good In Its Own Way
21 February 2018
Warning: Spoilers
The first part The Dark Project/Gold was scary & creepy it was quite the most haunting and scariest game ever made,after this thief 2 metal age release the looking glass studios shut down in 2000 its such a shame because that company was so great in making games,the invented a whole new experiences in gaming world for pc..today there are plenty of games but they all copy & steal the concept from thief series.

the story of this game takes place some time after the dark project 1998.garret battles a new enemy karass & also encounters a former enemy turned friend Victoria.

what else can i say they have set the bar so high here they really pushed the limits.but you have to play theif gold or dark project theif gold is a the re release version of dark project with additional missions for those who dont know.

if you like games like hitman series games or any other similar types then this is for you.you will never forget this .

the lighting is dark here .the weapons are same but few things are new added like new potions & arrows.plus a mechenical eye .

disappointing this is the enemy here is stronger i mean if you encounter a guard or machines tourrets,sentry or steam robots like cambot big or small you will get in deep trouble..those things shoot cannon balls at you..its best to avoid detecting you can disable them using water arrow in their backside but like i said avoid detection this is what this game is all about it takes time hours even days,and this is the best part about the gameplay that you just dont get in latest games i used to be a gamer but then i stopped around 2007,games for the last 10 years have become about graphics only & style .& no substance.

the music ,dialogs,score almost everything is superb here the story is set around middle metal ages,so there is steampunk envoirnment you get to experience all of it..the big houses,mansions,lakes,streets,

the ending is quite sad wich i didnt like at first time because vitoria sacrifices herself at then end,her death scene is quite intense ,this character could have been saved for future games so they could work together in missions anyway the best part is karras himself what a haunting voice ,he appears in the game in videos cutscenes and pictures on walls, its just his voice is wierd. the trickster from dark project was scary but this guy is wierd just by his voice & idea that all the pagans,mechanist's & everyone is so afraid of him.

i don't know if this works in windows 7 or 10.but if you have xp,or know how to play this on latest machines a it expert knows better,but please please please play this game once in your lifetime it will change the way you look at games.these guys who made this were simply genius. my rating is 5/10
