Just got the original three Thief games during this sale. Never played them before, so getting ready for some serious retro fun.

If System shock 2 is on sale you should grab it as well. Same genre but in space. A really solid immersive sim.

I bought it during a previous sale, but had forgotten about it. Given I'm currently playing OG Deus Ex, and about to play the Thief series, would fit in nicely. Thanks for the suggestion!

No problem! Yeah it'll really sit well alongside Deus Ex, though admittedly in my opinion Deus Ex has really weird mechanics for shooting, whereas SS2 is pretty much built to be a shooter first with the immersive sim built around those mechanics, though melee and psionic builds are valid as well (If you've played 2017's "Prey" you're pretty much set for what to expect with SS2, just with 1999 textures.)
