≠ Its own twist: third-person shooting, first-person shooting and sandbox freedom, while skipping visual isometric

The 2016 reboot that rebuilt the series around a handful of enormous sandbox levels — Paris, Sapienza, Marrakesh — designed to be replayed until you know every route, disguise and accident in them. Depth beats quantity here. The frustration is structural: much of the scoring and unlock system requires an online connection in a single-player game, and the trilogy's ownership and content-transfer rules remain a mess.

≠ Its own twist: strong narrative focus, melee combat and co op, while skipping adventure storytelling

The high point of the series and arguably of stealth: dynamic light and shadow you read as terrain, a knife, and levels with several genuine routes through them, plus a co-op campaign built for two. Twenty years on it holds up completely. The PC release does not — running it on modern hardware routinely needs community patches, and even then it crashes for many players.
