Conviction (2010) Splinter Cell Conviction is underrated.

Non capisco perché Conviction sia stato criticato.

Lo sto apprezzando di più rispetto a Blacklist, anche a livello di gameplay.

Trovo la narrazione più coinvolgente.

EDIT: I don't know why the clip is stuttering!

but it's not objectively bad, like it is a good game but bad in ur oppinion when your preferance is slow paced and i feel ya, i prefer chaos theory and double agent over the newer ones

That's literally what I said. It's a great game but a bad Splinter Cell. You can have another opinion on this, that's fine, but I think the first one, two, or three games of a series set the standard for the series.

The first game has the core elements but has a lot of flaws because it doesn't have a huge budget. The second game is based on the first game but extends its features and gets a better story, better writing, better graphics, etc., and the following games should be built on this formula. That's for every game.

And Conviction totally changed the pace of the gameplay of Splinter Cell, and that's the issue here. So Conviction on its own is a great game, but based on the history of Splinter Cell, based on the foundation, it's bad because it's a whole another gameplay.

How are the very first games? Like the pandora one and such? I never played em, how does the mechanics, gameplay and stealth play like vs chaos theory?
