Hitman 2: Silent Assassin

I feel spoiled by Blood Money's polish because does so many things wrong. For one, levels often drag because you move slowly in large, empty levels. The game gives you limited stealth options since enemies see through your disguise almost immediately and with limited means to interact with them otherwise. you're very limited in how you handle guards. You can't attack anyone without a weapon on hand often leaving you with little means to dispose of enemies non-lethally and without causing notice.

A cool creepy atmosphere and badass soundtrack raise the game from good to great

Tried to make Hitman an action game.

"Hmmm I don't remember hiring a giant bald pale ninja, ehn whatever" *Gets garroted*

It was a very well crafted piece for its time imo.
