I have fond memories with “All ghillied up”. I was at a friends house and I just sat next to my friend as he played that mission. It was my first time seeing a first person shooter and I was mind blown. Quickly after, I begged my parents and got a PS3 and played my first CoD game. More than a decade later I’m still playing tons of games, and none of it wouldn’t have started if it weren’t for that “All Ghillied Up” mission.
John Drumm Lady Bolyes last party was my favorite mission as well. There’s so many ways to accomplish it as well. Really hope they do more in the world of Dishonored. I am super stoked for Weird West though.
I feel like the Batman Arkham games are often overlooked when it comes to stealth, the games are always celebrated for their combat, but their stealth mechanics are also amazing
The Royal Conservatory in Dishonored 2 is by far the best gaming experience I’ve ever had. Everything about it (mainly the way it incorporates atmospheric horror with stealth) is perfect and when you’re playing it you forget that anything outside of the game exists.
A Crack in the Slab was also a good Dishonored 2 mission as well. Going back and forth through time. Destroying something in the past to affect something in the future is pretty dope.
I honestly don’t understand why, it wasn’t very fun. Cool concept with the ghillie suit and all but it barely even constitutes a “stealth mission” in the first place considering it’s completely on rails and you have to wait for Captain MacMillan before you can do anything.
jib rodriguez ikr, like it’s iconic and has had a super huge impact on the industry, but the mission gameplay itself is just Simon says and make you feel cool and doesn’t require any discussion making except, hey shoot guy on left or right.
This is the easiest mission from the entire game to get S rank on and should not be on this list. Get a car, throw a smoke grenade in the car, drive the car to Skull face. That's it. S Rank clear in under 5 minutes.
Dishonored 2’s “a crack in the slab” is my personal favorite. Using the timepiece to jump back and forth in time to get the drop on enemies, brilliant level.
Splinter Cell was my first stealth game. It blew my mind when I first discovered stealth gameplay as a kid. I was obsessed. My big brother would nervously call my name whenever he entered the basement at night knowing I was probably hiding in the shadows waiting to sneak up and put him in a headlock. He was once in a room watching TV with the lights on and I was crouched in a slightly dark corner and he never noticed me the whole time. Once I was in the backyard at night and my mom let the dog out to pee. I managed to sneak up and grab her while wearing soaking wet sandals. Her heart felt like it was going to explode. For years I could never walk anywhere without thinking about how I'd climb every building I saw. I was always trying to find new ways to break into my own house or infiltrate restricted areas. Stealth was my childhood.
The COD mission is one of the few times playing a game that I felt really tense. When you're laying in the grass and they're walking right by you is INTENSE!
Agreed lol stealth missions are some of the most memorable and fondest memories that I have with my gaming throughout my life, you remember all the tense and anxiety filled moments you had when you were hiding and fighting the bosses..and feelings of relief and excitement when you are able to slide through any level without getting detected at all, I absolutely love watching lists about stealth games because it makes me nostalgic and makes me want to play the games on the list that I haven’t yet lol DO IT GAMERANX!
Here's the thing. I know the game is amazing. I've watched StealthGamerBR play the shit out of this game. But, I'm not a stealth gamer. Owned a Splinter Cell and absolutely loved the permiss of the game, but I couldn't pull off the moves. Most people don't enjoy the pressure of stealth games. So we sit back and watch masters craft their art i.e. StealthGamerBR
I don't think it's underrated, it's a beloved series by the majority of people who played it. Problem is many people haven't played it :( personally I LOVE the series so much. One of the great things about the series is that one doesn't need to be a fan of stealth to enjoy it because you most definitely don't have to play it stealthily. Run & gun/hack is just fine as well.
Clockwork mansion in Dishonored 2 is the most exhilarating stealth mission I've ever played. Also Chaos Theory is basically every level up until Seoul a masterpiece. But Blacklist has some of the coolest level designs ever. And the odd thing about it was it feels more action-like than stealth, but it totally gives you a lot of chances to 100% stealth it in various ways. My personal favorite is the timelimit ending of American Consumption where you have to disable the poison pumps.
@@samgruzinskiy How is the rest of the game not stealth? You sneak your way through the jungle. Up into the mountains down into the compound and fight shagohad for the last hour of the game. It is through and through a stealth game. How else would one play? The shooting mechanics are designed to be somewhat clunky and hard to master. As a player you need to have an advantage over the guards to take them out. Not being spotted is said advantage. Please tell me how you believe that the only real stealth part is once snake gets into the compound.
I still remember one of the first bandit assaults in Alien Isolation. Since you suck ass at combat and can go down real quick I thought "Hey, why not toss a sound bait?" Seeing a xenomorph jumping from a vent and charging towards a group of panicked goons and shredding them was one of my best gaming moments of all time.
Maybe a lesser known one but i loved the mission on the (moving!) train in Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow... such a unique mission that stayed in my head since i played it for the first time
For some reason multiple maps of Pandora Tomorrow really stuck with me. The train, the absolute bonkers curfew mission on Jerusalem where you accidentally crash into people's bedrooms, and the TV station level in Jakarta. All intricate and memorable maps, though time has probably somewhat enhanced my fondness of them.
@@lokki9203 it's hard to argue because some Spinter Cell games are really good but as a franchise it has a few bad games when Hitman's only sin to me was Absolution and even absolution was not that bad
Splinter Cell is along the lines of MGS/Mission Impossible with its own twist. Hitman takes it to an art form, with albeit intentionally hilarious results. When done correctly it really looks like stealth as an art form.
The sad truth is it was also poorly made. I know it's a kick in the nostalgia gland, but go see how poor is the combat. And the collisions in general. I love Tenchu and its squared people, don't get me wrong. It could have been amazing, if done a little better.
i really prefer to be that way. i like the idea that tenchu is a hidden gem that only the ogs will know about. besides, tenchu for me started losing its luster starting with fatal shadows. it could be that i was bummed that rikimaru wasn't available but it didn't give that same nostalgia that the first three games offered.
I don't think it's an unpopular opinion. Probably unpopular to the general community, but to the stealth dudes like me, absolute gem. I love Watchdog 2 so much.
I just wish the game really let you infiltrate however you like, you can't really just hack your way in from afar because eventually the game requires you to go inside, kinda annoyed me tbh
22 seconds into the video and it had inspired a comment: definitely make more videos about stealth games and missions, the thumbnail showing a scene from Dishonored and the title had me clicking watch without a second's thought!
Nice pick from Thief 2. That mission is HUGE! That's my all time favorite game series. Suggestions for other picks would be Cragscleft Prison or mission 2 from Thief the Dark Project. Also The Sword (aka Constantine's Manor) mission 5 or 6 depending on which version you're playing. That mission still rolls around in my head on nearly a daily basis. Also the asylum mission in deadly shadows still haunts my nightmares.
The first one was extra stressful, because the other assassin created some time pressure too. I'm used to just taking WAAAAY too long to plan things out.
@@andyrobins8261 they weren't that hard if you know how to get rid of them. And I don't even think they were part of that mission. I just thought it was cool changing between two different points in time as a stealth mechanic.
I always find myself replaying the second to last mission of Dishonored 2, where you have to eliminate the Duke of Serkonos. Not the best level if you ask me, but it's the most aesthetically pleasing; sneaking through essentially a modern day mansion, spying on the rich and corrupt, and having to discern whether one of two Dukes is either the real man or his copycat. Its just a really pretty level to me
@@raidengoodman8754 you'd have to observe how a level works then execute. Stealth games are pretty much trial and error. Always satisfying to pull off infiltration without being detected.
My absolute favorite stealth mission was MGS3 when you go up against The End in the jungle. Are there probably better stealth missions? Sure. But that shit blew me away in middle school.
Number 1. What a shout. If you accessed all of the computers in that level you got an encrypted message that had the numbers for a key pad with some goodies for the sc20k as your leaving the building before the guy goes for a smoke break. Those were the days.
I recently did a new playthrough of Dishonored and on the Lady Boyle mission, I found out that you can sign your name in the guest ledger after disappearing lady Boyle and it was one of the most satisfying and cool moments in a mission that I never knew about. Definitely worth a spot if you guys do another episode.
The first two have to be my favourite games of all time. The level design is simply amazing. Atmosphere is also jusy incredible despite the old graphics. Don't forget the patches, tfix for thief 1 and tafferpatcher for thief 2.
I feel like a ducking idiot... I started playing theif 2014 because it looked bad ass with the thumbnail but it opens with a card game and I thought the entire game was a card game so I never played. Will have to play once I finish the entire AC series full synch... for the second time... Only have unity and oddest left to go but I really don’t want to play those two again (mainly odyssey).
It may not be a mission but thief simulator does this really well. Especially when you get to the late game stuff, from the stake out, finding out residents daily routines, getting inside dogging security cameras and guards, to the escape with whatever massive item your carrying before the resident gets back. Plus it has VR
I thought it was gonna be a pretty straightforward game but there's a ton of thought put into it. Having to prep so much is the big leagues imo. Those screams when you're noticed give me much more of a rush than any alarm or gunfire in any other stealth game. I think it's mainly due to your guy not being any kind of badass. Can't run fast, can't parkour, can't shoot the snitch, can't drive well. Dude is super vulnerable
The mission that taught me the word "Stealth" is "All Ghillied up". This is after I had played assassin's creed. My god while playing that mission I was on my toes... Just 2 guys going right under the noses of military personnel. Wow that was just amazing and that last leg of the mission where we literally have to carry our teammate and not die simultaneously oh my god. That whole mission was a kind of revelation to me, that sure we can go guns blazing but by using our mind and patience we not only conserve ammo it tests our skills our patience. This mission will always have a special place in Gaming History.
Most of the Payday 2 missions were super fun to play stealthily, but you either had to play alone or with friends because there was always that one guy online who would ruin it for everyone
Totally! Those games were magical. The diversity of missions in different environments was soo cool, very creative. My personal favorite was The Metal Age, but all of them were pure gold
The original Thief series was awesome. I replayed many of the missions over and over again because they were so much fun. Extinguishing torches with water arrows was an awesome mechanic.
I just replayed the first two games to try to get the trophies and different endings,Sure,Stealth can be fun,Such as in "Sniper team" and "Pavel" missions,But the Stealth makes no sense,Artyom just goes around and beats some metallic helmets,And for our surprise,No one hears the sound of Metal and screams two feet away in a perfectly visible shadowy corner,The shadows are so bright you never actually get to use your NVG.
I was hoping you'd mention Thief 2. Who can't mention Thief 2 when talking about the greatest games of all time, let alone best stealth missions? I'd definitely say Life Of The Party was amazing, but also, in the same game, Shipping & Receiving and First City Bank & Trust were amazing.
Shipping and Receiving is still one of my most favourite. Bank is huge, with lots of ways in (which Life of Party was not great at). Still "ultimate stealth: is "Casing the joint", which you must ghost through. This is a great stealth mission. Generally almost every Thief 2 mission had something in it that was special.
After I replayed Hitman 2's "Invitation to a Party" mission.. it never took me more than 5 minutes to successfully get a Silent Assassin rating and I didn't even had to take a disguise to complete the objectives.. it was one of my favourite mission of the Hitman 2: Silent Assassin game and this vid just brings back those old memories ☺️☺️
I used to HATE stealth games (although I did like Metal Gear since the NES days) but then I played "Tenchu" & realized just how fun they were, then I played "Deus Ex" & I fell in love with stealth games.
Great video man. I’ve never played Chaos Theory, but Splinter Cell: Double Agent is one of my all-time favourite stealth games, thrilling from start to finish. The missions are based in incredible locations (the Chinese New Year Shanghai mission is a personal favourite) and the freedom to choose between both sides of your double-agent status is SO cool. Metal Gear Solid 2-4 all absolutely outstanding too (especially 3 and 4 IMO).
Splinter Cell 1 my first ever played stealth game in older windows XP pc. I remember how frustrated I was even in the training section as this was an entirely new experience for me and all I can say it really teaches you the essentials of how to play a stealth game in non lethal manner. Hardly anything I can find in modern day titles.
Yeah but it’s not really a stealth mission when it’s COD. It just doesn’t feel very stealthy compared to other missions in other games. Sure it’s stealthy and cool but no where close to something like dishonored, or AC.
MgsV was always stressful in a good way. Creeping past enemies, choosing who & who not to send to base. Grabbing Intel, & creeping back out of sight, then taking off full sprint to the extraction point. It's always a good time
I think Dishonored 2's "A crack in the slab" and "The clockwork mansion" levels deserve a mention. Both because of the very interesting level design. In the former, you walk back and forth between two points in time, basically hiding from guards in the future and getting over obsticles in the past. The Clockwork mansion is also a very well built level, the whole place shifts at the push of a button, you can jump between the panels or hide within the disappearing rooms. These two were certainly the among the most interesting level designs I have seen in stealth games. Not to mention that you could skip an entire level and mission if you figured out the riddle in the level before "A crack in the slab", which was a very cool thing in my opinion, showing that you really can change the narrative, unlike other games that wouldn't let you try solving it and would just say "Go and get the answer from XYZ!"
@@hashbrownslinging-slasher872 without a doubt, it really set down the groundwork for even wilder outside the box level design. Everyone talks so much about map size and never enough about density or quality.
@@SzatanistaDzezowy it isn't too bad but it just doesn't feel like a Hitman game and like the disguises were literally useless and a lot of the situations stealth isn't really an option and the game itself it felt more like run and gun and get the hell out rather than knock out people silently and take their disguises and try not to get noticed and the instinct system was just AWFUL.
@@ultimatebro5719 Agreed but I gotta add - the story was also awfull. One of the stupidest stories in games ever. And the acting by voice actors and their lines and dialoges were just cringe...
@@ultimatebro5719 And also I might add, the whole game has some wierd BDSM thingy going on. Sexy killer nuns, people talking about genitals all the time, almost all the targets are perverts... Plus even when you hide 2 bodies in the same place they always look like they are copulating. Did horny teenagers write this game?
As soon as I saw the title of this video I thought; "if they don't bring up the ghillie suit mission from MW that would be a sin", and then you mentioned it almost instantly. Because that was one of the coolest video game missions ever.
Nice list! My favourite Stealth level, by the way, is "The Clockwork Mansion" from Dishonored 2. While I still prefer the story in the first game, the level design of the second one is simply amazing Also, I enjoyed the first Splinter Cell more than Chaos Theory 🤷♂️
"[Hitman] was one of the first games where you got that satisfying feeling of pulling something off that was awesome and stealthy"... Commandos begs its pardon!

Hoping to see the masquerade mission from Dishonored on here. Always been one of my favorites
Dang. So close.
Honestly that's one of my favorites
John Drumm Lady Bolyes last party was my favorite mission as well. There’s so many ways to accomplish it as well. Really hope they do more in the world of Dishonored. I am super stoked for Weird West though.
Putt-Putt What is Weird West?
I was hoping for dishonored 2's "Clockwork Mansion"
Me too, Lady Boyles last party is better than House of Pleasure imo. Amazing game overall tho, tough choices.
Have to say the Splinter Cell series has a lot of great stealth missions and the first game got me seriously hooked into the franchise.
I feel like the Batman Arkham games are often overlooked when it comes to stealth, the games are always celebrated for their combat, but their stealth mechanics are also amazing
This!
The whole dishonored game is just an amazing stealth mission
Unless you go loud and shoot people like I did on my first rum, nonetheless a fantastic game

Seeing a xenomorph jumping from a vent and charging towards a group of panicked goons and shredding them was one of my best gaming moments of all time.
Dishonored 2-Cloclwork mansion,One of the best video game mission so far
Ewwww Isolation is trash IMO. The Alien is scripted and doesn't leave areas you are around even if you hide in a locker for 15 minutes.....
Alien isolation isn't really stealth though. More like a game of hide and seek.
Maybe a lesser known one but i loved the mission on the (moving!) train in Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow... such a unique mission that stayed in my head since i played it for the first time
There is one in Blacklist!
The Wolfenstein series has had various sneaking missions.

All intricate and memorable maps, though time has probably somewhat enhanced my fondness of them.
"All Ghillied up doesn't fit" when I read the title of the video, thats the first mission I thought of.
Ahhhhh the days when Cod was good.
If Burger King: Sneak King isn’t on this list I will be so sad
Every Hitman level. There, that’s the list.
Hitman is probably the greatest stealth franchise. You easily have this list 10 levels from hitman.

Unpopular opinion: I enjoy the stealth missions in watchdogs 2
They were pretty good
Absolutely loved that game in general.
I don't think it's an unpopular opinion. Probably unpopular to the general community, but to the stealth dudes like me, absolute gem. I love Watchdog 2 so much.
Not unpopular
I just wish the game really let you infiltrate however you like, you can't really just hack your way in from afar because eventually the game requires you to go inside, kinda annoyed me tbh
22 seconds into the video and it had inspired a comment: definitely make more videos about stealth games and missions, the thumbnail showing a scene from Dishonored and the title had me clicking watch without a second's thought!
Nice pick from Thief 2. That mission is HUGE! That's my all time favorite game series. Suggestions for other picks would be Cragscleft Prison or mission 2 from Thief the Dark Project. Also The Sword (aka Constantine's Manor) mission 5 or 6 depending on which version you're playing. That mission still rolls around in my head on nearly a daily basis. Also the asylum mission in deadly shadows still haunts my nightmares.
The first one was extra stressful, because the other assassin created some time pressure too. I'm used to just taking WAAAAY too long to plan things out.
The timepiece mission in Dishonored 2
with the gigantic clockwork soliders? i HAAATED that mission
@@andyrobins8261 they weren't that hard if you know how to get rid of them. And I don't even think they were part of that mission. I just thought it was cool changing between two different points in time as a stealth mechanic.
@@andyrobins8261 I feel like you're thinking about a different mission.
It's rewind time !
@@rihara1729
Nope not rewind ..
Thank you for recognising my skill. This mission was one of my proudest moments.
Especially with StealthGamerBR's playstyle
Mayte Exxis Precisely
Sly 2 “Stealing a Tuxedo”
Yeah or some sly mission
Ooooohh yea!
Absolute classic!! Guess I'm digging up my thieves in time disc, it came with the original trilogy too!!
I totally forgot about the sly games!!
Splinter Cell: Conviction when you're at the fair/carnival thing. Loved that shit.
I always find myself replaying the second to last mission of Dishonored 2, where you have to eliminate the Duke of Serkonos. Not the best level if you ask me, but it's the most aesthetically pleasing; sneaking through essentially a modern day mansion, spying on the rich and corrupt, and having to discern whether one of two Dukes is either the real man or his copycat. Its just a really pretty level to me
I generally enjoy stealth missions... for the first five minutes then it’s all helicopters and explosions LETS GOOOO
GET TO THE CHOPPAAA
Same. I always try to sneak but eventually get caught no matter what
100th like, ahh so satisfying.
@@raidengoodman8754 you'd have to observe how a level works then execute. Stealth games are pretty much trial and error. Always satisfying to pull off infiltration without being detected.
I live for stealth. I could sit and watch troop movements forever to clear an area unseen, and I'd never get bored.
The newest hitman games have some of the best damn stealth I have EVER seen
Not as good as Burger King: Sneak King
My absolute favorite stealth mission was MGS3 when you go up against The End in the jungle. Are there probably better stealth missions? Sure. But that shit blew me away in middle school.
Number 1. What a shout. If you accessed all of the computers in that level you got an encrypted message that had the numbers for a key pad with some goodies for the sc20k as your leaving the building before the guy goes for a smoke break. Those were the days.
I recently did a new playthrough of Dishonored and on the Lady Boyle mission, I found out that you can sign your name in the guest ledger after disappearing lady Boyle and it was one of the most satisfying and cool moments in a mission that I never knew about. Definitely worth a spot if you guys do another episode.
Was waiting for splinter cell since first moment. Also glad u recognize mark of the ninja, one of the satisfying games ever. Thank you guys really!
Who remembers the old school Hobbit on PC way back in the day. Sneaking round some sleeping trolls avoiding them leaves......
“Spy theme activated” 🕵️
Snort Snort
I am de spy
A lad on the internet My favorite class is the spy
@@aladontheinternet6363 Right behind you
All Ghillied up was such an original and iconic mission. Straight up badass mission
Tenchu is definitely the best stealth game out of all of these. It's definitely been long overdue for an updated version.
Between tenchu and splinter cell for me, incredible games both are sorely missed
Madd Dogg's Rhymes because nostalgia
Honestly the stealth in GTA games always sucked but that was a good mission
I’m gonna go download the original Thief series now. I feel like as a stealth game fanatic, i have sinned against myself for never playing them.
Have fun! Theif (Lastest One) is my all time favorite
Play them theyre great even if they are hard as nails
God, you're in for a ride there. Fantastic games, old but gold. The level architecture, for example, was fenomenal ♥️
The first two have to be my favourite games of all time. The level design is simply amazing. Atmosphere is also jusy incredible despite the old graphics.
Don't forget the patches, tfix for thief 1 and tafferpatcher for thief 2.
I feel like a ducking idiot... I started playing theif 2014 because it looked bad ass with the thumbnail but it opens with a card game and I thought the entire game was a card game so I never played. Will have to play once I finish the entire AC series full synch... for the second time... Only have unity and oddest left to go but I really don’t want to play those two again (mainly odyssey).
best concept for a series "best *type* Missions of all time"
It may not be a mission but thief simulator does this really well. Especially when you get to the late game stuff, from the stake out, finding out residents daily routines, getting inside dogging security cameras and guards, to the escape with whatever massive item your carrying before the resident gets back. Plus it has VR
I thought it was gonna be a pretty straightforward game but there's a ton of thought put into it. Having to prep so much is the big leagues imo. Those screams when you're noticed give me much more of a rush than any alarm or gunfire in any other stealth game. I think it's mainly due to your guy not being any kind of badass. Can't run fast, can't parkour, can't shoot the snitch, can't drive well. Dude is super vulnerable
The mission that taught me the word "Stealth" is "All Ghillied up". This is after I had played assassin's creed. My god while playing that mission I was on my toes... Just 2 guys going right under the noses of military personnel. Wow that was just amazing and that last leg of the mission where we literally have to carry our teammate and not die simultaneously oh my god. That whole mission was a kind of revelation to me, that sure we can go guns blazing but by using our mind and patience we not only conserve ammo it tests our skills our patience. This mission will always have a special place in Gaming History.
So many missions from Call Of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and MW2 will go down in gaming history as masterpieces. In fact, many of them already have.
Tenchu, Metal Gear Solid, and Splinter Cell were all I cared about back then!
Payday 2 has some crazy stealth missions, takes time, patience and perfection
Thank you! I was gonna say the painting mission with the gold in the last part as well, soloing it!
Yeah the Dentist and the Elephant mission's are the best. And not to forget the Merkiwather wearhouse
Most of the Payday 2 missions were super fun to play stealthily, but you either had to play alone or with friends because there was always that one guy online who would ruin it for everyone
They should really remaster the Thief Trilogy. Thief 3 Deadly Shadows is my favorite stealth game of all time.
Totally! Those games were magical. The diversity of missions in different environments was soo cool, very creative. My personal favorite was The Metal Age, but all of them were pure gold
Remake* But yeah if they were remade with modern combat, mechanics and graphics I think I’d love them.
I didn't realize that Tenchu is more popular than I expected. this video brings my memories back
The original Thief series was awesome. I replayed many of the missions over and over again because they were so much fun. Extinguishing torches with water arrows was an awesome mechanic.
Was hoping to see any of the Metro games mentioned! :(
I just replayed the first two games to try to get the trophies and different endings,Sure,Stealth can be fun,Such as in "Sniper team" and "Pavel" missions,But the Stealth makes no sense,Artyom just goes around and beats some metallic helmets,And for our surprise,No one hears the sound of Metal and screams two feet away in a perfectly visible shadowy corner,The shadows are so bright you never actually get to use your NVG.
I was hoping you'd mention Thief 2. Who can't mention Thief 2 when talking about the greatest games of all time, let alone best stealth missions? I'd definitely say Life Of The Party was amazing, but also, in the same game, Shipping & Receiving and First City Bank & Trust were amazing.
Shipping and Receiving is still one of my most favourite. Bank is huge, with lots of ways in (which Life of Party was not great at).
Still "ultimate stealth: is "Casing the joint", which you must ghost through. This is a great stealth mission. Generally almost every Thief 2 mission had something in it that was special.
After I replayed Hitman 2's "Invitation to a Party" mission.. it never took me more than 5 minutes to successfully get a Silent Assassin rating and I didn't even had to take a disguise to complete the objectives.. it was one of my favourite mission of the Hitman 2: Silent Assassin game and this vid just brings back those old memories ☺️☺️
I used to HATE stealth games (although I did like Metal Gear since the NES days) but then I played "Tenchu" & realized just how fun they were, then I played "Deus Ex" & I fell in love with stealth games.
Great video man. I’ve never played Chaos Theory, but Splinter Cell: Double Agent is one of my all-time favourite stealth games, thrilling from start to finish. The missions are based in incredible locations (the Chinese New Year Shanghai mission is a personal favourite) and the freedom to choose between both sides of your double-agent status is SO cool. Metal Gear Solid 2-4 all absolutely outstanding too (especially 3 and 4 IMO).
Was about to scream about Splinter Cell until I saw the list. Such a beautiful game.
Dishonered has to be top 20 best games ever
I'm looking forward to their next game!! So excited! I think it's called Deathloop ☺️
I think Dishonored is my 2nd favourite game of all time. 2nd only to Dishonored 2 lol.
Ah...Sam Fisher. You did it again.
Splinter Cell 1 my first ever played stealth game in older windows XP pc. I remember how frustrated I was even in the training section as this was an entirely new experience for me and all I can say it really teaches you the essentials of how to play a stealth game in non lethal manner. Hardly anything I can find in modern day titles.
I recommend the OG Thief Games for you.
'All Ghillied Up' pure nostalgia. Straight up halcyon days of COD.
Oblivion's Dark Brotherhood quest "Whodunit?" Most fun quest in the series.
Oblivion’s whole dark brotherhood ark is amazing
I just walked around killing all of them before they realize someone died
@@whoami1449 damn the joke really got under your skin
1:56 nothing weird about this choice, amazing stealth mission
Yeah but it’s not really a stealth mission when it’s COD. It just doesn’t feel very stealthy compared to other missions in other games. Sure it’s stealthy and cool but no where close to something like dishonored, or AC.
Great list. I was particularly glad when you mentioned Hitman 2, Tenchu and the original Assassin's Creed.
MgsV was always stressful in a good way. Creeping past enemies, choosing who & who not to send to base. Grabbing Intel, & creeping back out of sight, then taking off full sprint to the extraction point. It's always a good time
I think Dishonored 2's "A crack in the slab" and "The clockwork mansion" levels deserve a mention. Both because of the very interesting level design. In the former, you walk back and forth between two points in time, basically hiding from guards in the future and getting over obsticles in the past. The Clockwork mansion is also a very well built level, the whole place shifts at the push of a button, you can jump between the panels or hide within the disappearing rooms. These two were certainly the among the most interesting level designs I have seen in stealth games. Not to mention that you could skip an entire level and mission if you figured out the riddle in the level before "A crack in the slab", which was a very cool thing in my opinion, showing that you really can change the narrative, unlike other games that wouldn't let you try solving it and would just say "Go and get the answer from XYZ!"
i feel like tenchu doesn't get enough recognition
Totally!!
Listen here, Lady Boyle's Last Party walked so Kirin Jindosh's Clockwork Mansion could RUN.
Conner McCollum yESSS.
But Dust District though.
And the other time mansion level.
@@hashbrownslinging-slasher872 without a doubt, it really set down the groundwork for even wilder outside the box level design. Everyone talks so much about map size and never enough about density or quality.
Stealth games are super fun sometimes Styx did a really good job and some RuneScape stealth missions are okay
Blood money was my favorite in the series and you chose a great mission
Dishonored is soooooo underrated its criminal.. the 2nd one is pretty good to but EVERYTHING about the original Dishonored is just MWAHH Chefs Kiss 😘
The Silent realms from Skyward Sword have gotta be my favourite.
Really? Zelda?
Thumbs up for the Tenchu respect
Hitman absolution: chapter 4 “Run for your life” in purists difficulty without been spotted. That would be a memorable mission for next video
Nope. Worst Hitman ever, no good missions. Nothing is good in this shit game
@@SzatanistaDzezowy it isn't too bad but it just doesn't feel like a Hitman game and like the disguises were literally useless and a lot of the situations stealth isn't really an option and the game itself it felt more like run and gun and get the hell out rather than knock out people silently and take their disguises and try not to get noticed and the instinct system was just AWFUL.
@@ultimatebro5719 Agreed but I gotta add - the story was also awfull. One of the stupidest stories in games ever. And the acting by voice actors and their lines and dialoges were just cringe...
@@ultimatebro5719 And also I might add, the whole game has some wierd BDSM thingy going on. Sexy killer nuns, people talking about genitals all the time, almost all the targets are perverts... Plus even when you hide 2 bodies in the same place they always look like they are copulating. Did horny teenagers write this game?
Wasn't that mission impossible to silent assassin on purist because of the bug right at the end?
As soon as I saw the title of this video I thought; "if they don't bring up the ghillie suit mission from MW that would be a sin", and then you mentioned it almost instantly. Because that was one of the coolest video game missions ever.
Great video!! I knew the cod mission would be in this video before I even saw it!! I loved that mission when I was a kid!
Nice list! My favourite Stealth level, by the way, is "The Clockwork Mansion" from Dishonored 2. While I still prefer the story in the first game, the level design of the second one is simply amazing
Also, I enjoyed the first Splinter Cell more than Chaos Theory 🤷♂️
What about Deus Ex: HR police station mission or the Deus Ex: MD bank mission. For me it doesn’t get better than that..
The last of Us is great for being stealthy, I'm hoping part 2 has taken it to the next level.
Stealthy gameplay made the game more intense
I just knew "All Guillied Up" would be here, please continue the series 🔥
Hunting the sniper in the forest in Metal Gear Solid...amazing. Using the microphone...shhh....dont move.....amazing...inmersive..love it!
best stealth game is assassinating jake without being seen by his action figures
The Ghost Recon: Wildlands mission where you sneak in an evangelist church live broadcast to expose the priest and cartel... Mwah 💋
yeah, loved that mission. Wildlands is sooooo much better than Breakpoint.
Bro yessss I remember that mission, took me a few try’s but its a great mission
Hell yeah! Especially if you come in from the mountain side. Or if you parachuted on top of the church and pray your AI doesn't spawn inside.
Try the real Ghost Recon, that's stealth and tactics. Ubisoft turned it into run and gun action game.
@@miceandgods4171 You gotta try GRW with a 4 man all playing on realistic with marks and the mini-map off. It's the only way I've enjoyed it.
"[Hitman] was one of the first games where you got that satisfying feeling of pulling something off that was awesome and stealthy"... Commandos begs its pardon!
All the recent love stealth games have been getting on RUclips is making me real happy
There could’ve been more splinter cell missions. Those are the definitive stealth games that we need more of
