i didn't play any of its sequel. it's like the magic is gone. tenchu was an experience for actual stealth gameplay. nothing comes close imo.

No doubt. I remember being younger and always wishing there was a game where you could sneak around and have a free roam map, as pretty much all games up until that point were more of the side scroll games where you went in the direction the game wanted you to. I thought it was the greatest game ever when it came out lol. But you're right, it's like the magic is gone after the first one.

The first Splinter Cell did, IMO

But yeah after that, it was very been there, done that. Stealthy gameplay has it's limits. What gamers really want is something that either makes you think your way through it or not think at all and just go guns blazing or swords swinging
