Not the game for me

Thief Simulator starts out strong - it has pretty solid sneaking mechanics, and the idea is certainly not one you see around a lot - where the emphasis is on stealth and stealing stuff without it being detected, and getting away before the tenants notice. No combat, no assassinations - hurting people is actually a fail state - so its an interesting twist. As you unlock new tools and abilities you can try different entrances, which is all very fun. ... Problem is it kind of... starts out strong and doesn't go anywhere from there. Once you've completed the tutorial heists you've kind of seen it all. Find a way into the house, ideally while the tenants are out. Cram as much valuable crap per pound into your bag as you can. Maybe steal a few paintings or a flat screen TV, get out. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Once you've broken into one house you've kind of broken into them all. Don't get me wrong, the tenants have different routines and sometimes tenants stay at home all day, and the layouts are different, but... the gameplay loop is always the same. The items you're stealing are generally the same. And you're only selling the stuff you steal so you can.. what? Buy expensive new equipment that lets you open a door that arbitrarily needs a better lockpick? There's just not a lot of variety once you get past the initial tutorial, which is a shame. Its not a BAD game by any means - i'd rather give it a "middling" option if I could - but it IS thoroughly meh. Get it on sale, play it for an hour or two, then play something else and let your memories of it fade until you fancy playing it again. But hey, they're making a sequel, so maybe that'll be better.
