Stealth Sections (Rant 1)

Hello, I’m James and I’m the guy who likes spending time ranting about various video game topics like today’s topic stealth sections. So enjoy this rant.

Forced stealth sections in otherwise unstealthy games are some of the most annoying things in gaming. For example don’t you hate it when you’re running around as deadpool shooting things and blowing stuff up and then suddenly BAM forced stealth section to ruin all the fun. See, forced stealth sections should only ever be in stealth games putting them in any other game is just idiotic and it ruins the good things that the game does.

Now occasionally you see an example of a stealth section that flows with the rest of the game but for this to work in anything that isn’t a slow paced game would be so difficult due to the abrupt change of pace between normal gameplay and forced stealth gameplay.

now you may be wondering what’s the difference beetween the stealth game and these forced stealth sections is that in stealth games you know you’re getting a stealth game and you’re ready for stealth the game would be made for stealth or to have an option of a stealth play through rather than forced sections which would just be stealth pushed into something un stealthy making it not abs good advice the rest of the game.

disclaimer this next part mentions Spider-Man for the PS4 on writing this the game is not out and the views expressed may change with the release of the game.

Now Spider-Man is witty and fast paced and regardless on wether or not the game is good on release it’s obviously gonna be fast paced and full of action so my issue is with the Mary Jane sections it’s been openly revealed that Mary Jane is a playable character and the gameplay is about taking photographs and stealth now as Spider-Man a force do stealth section would be bearable cause of all the cool gadgets and abilities that come with playing as spider man however with Mary Jane there’s no powers no gadgets so the stealth aspect will probably even just stealth and a downgrade and a bit too big a change of pace to the rest of the game. However according to some articles there’s a  smooth transition into playing as Mary Jane and the stealth sections are good but combined with the massive change between the forced stealth sections and the fun Spider-Man adventures would be too much making the stealth sections a bit of a drag until you can play as Spider-Man again.
