How come Equilibrium is so well liked? It wasn´t my cup of tea at all, cause it´s more of a fighting-style misison which is not like Garrett at all. Maybe because it´s the first mission ever made with (almost) invisible keeper enemies?! :weird:
I think it's the architecture. This is the first mission that pictures
the places and vibe of keeper-ish cutscenes in an actual mission - huge libraries, high ceilings, books everywhere. Technically, the
invisible enemies (with both sword and arrow) were surely a new thing, but at the same time, very unthiefy and unfair for me. You, the guy who has been taught to be low-profile to be successful, suddenly face a situation where
you can be attacked anytime by invisible enemy - I did not like that, ever. In fact, when I wanted to enjoy the vibe and the architecture of this mission, I always went via DromEd and Ai Forget Player....

I picked Embracing the Enemy - it's always been a hidden gem to me. It's got the Garrett voice lines done by Loanstar (same guy that did them for Calendra missions). The mansion is well designed, challenging but not TOO hard. Plus it has a winery - complete with the grape-crushing machinery - which is cool.
The tension of having another thief going after your objective at the same time (and you can see him a couple of times in-game!) adds to the fun.

Equilibrium's the most memorable one for me, that's for sure.
Also really liked Stowaway and Benny's Dead since I feel they were both somewhat unique for the time, stood out, in a good way.

I agree with that. It´s sth. totally different compared to most other FMs. Definitely a big bonus and also why I voted for this mission. I also voted for Saturio returns home cause the story was pretty good imo. Other than that I voted for Errand Boy and Raid on Washout Central, both really good missions from Belboz :)

Congratulations! :D
Unfortunately (or rather fortunately for me) I am currently on holiday in Sardinia. So I'll try to post the next poll tomorrow! :)
