fuuuuuck this would be an amazing game. There are so many directions you could take it. Imagine having to get into the next door backyard, but there's a dog. You have to sneak into the bathroom, find some sleeping pills, then sneak the pills into the dog's food bowl.
It would be like a cross between The Last of Us, Hitman, and The Secret World of Arrietty.
Just a minor thing, but Arrietty is just a movie based on the books in The Borrowers series. Doesn’t matter, your point stands, just like to shout out the original inspiration for the film.
I would love this. I have played every Hitman - and am currently playing Hitman III... which basically just devolves into me simply killing every single person in the level.
I don't like the difficulty levels of Hitman III though -- I wish there were a hell of a lot more victims to go after.
But the levels are AMAZING and fun and beautiful.
But anything that can capture the Hitman gameplay would be great.
The thief series was also amazing, but its so dated it doesnt run well on my super high-end gaming machine...
But one thing that was super cool in Thief were the arrow types: Moss, Rope, Water... Moss arrows hit the ground and spawn a soft bed of moss to allow for silent walking.
Agreed, the difficulty is way too low. I actually wouldn't mind if they literally made it realistic - get hit by one bullet and you're dead. I'd also like to see them experiment more with social engineering. Something like LA Noir, with branching conversations, where you have to talk your way into a scenario instead of sneaking in. Make the kills feel much more personal.
