Thief II: The Metal Age

This would be the third game agreed with Eidos, since 2 was an improvement on the first. And he would face great changes and problems.

Due to the situation of the studio, where on many occasions they were close to going bankrupt, many of the veteran employees left, but that gave the new ones who came in a chance to shine in this game. They moved away from the paranormal theme and focused on new forms of the idea of being a thief, although losing some variety along the way[3,3].

With Thief 2 the engine was in its 3rd iteration, making it enrich the experience, the guards could notice more details of the scenery and your actions, and the engine could generate new lights, rain, and fog for certain levels… The number of polygons increased and improved cinematics. The game took everything players loved about the first one and focused more on those parts, with more emphasis on stealth, and strategizing and less focus on combat[4,3].
