Thief The Dark Project was my favorite game from 1999 to 2008, when I finally got into Deus Ex. To this day these two games are still my number 1 and 2.
Thief II didn't make a entry in my list, it was a big disappointment for me due to weaker atmosphere and level design.
Thief Deadly Shadows was just a good game for me, I don't include those in my personal top.
Thief 2014 was a misunderstanding, let's leave it at that :p

My top 10 games of all time in order:
1. Thief Gold
2. Skyrim
3. Thief 2
4. The Dark Mod
5. Thief 3
6. Max Payne 1
7. Doom 3
8. Max Payne 2
9. Heretic II
10. Amnesia
The next 10 would include Quake 1-3, Painkiller, Serious Sam, Duke Nukem 3d, Terminal Velocity.
I never played Nuthief, not sure if I ever will

On the PC for me the big three have always been the Thief and Deus Ex series (without getting into comparing individual titles within each franchise), and System Shock 2.
In the SNES days it would have been RPGs such as Secret Of Mana and Terranigma.
In the Spectrum days it would have been the Dizzy series, and maybe others I have forgotten now.
But in the PC era those three were the big three. TDP & the first DE blew me away when I first played them. Oddly enough I didn't really get into TMA when I first played it, but my second playthrough around two years later was another one of my all-time great gaming experiences.

They rank pretty highly for me.
1. Thief: The Dark Project/Gold
2. Quake
3. Elden Ring
4. The Witcher 3 GOTY
5. System Shock 2
6. Unreal
7. Thief 2: The Metal Age
8. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
9. Alien: Isolation
10. Ultima Underworld: The Stygian Abyss
@Azaran: Didn't expect Doom 3 to be in any Top 10. It's an unfairly maligned game imo.

It's a great horror experience. When I first played it (at night), it left me genuinely uncomfortable afterwards, looking over my shoulder (in a good way, no other game has managed that, not even Amnesia)

Putting Elden Ring on this list would be a tough one for me. I do feel like it's one of the best game experiences I've ever had, but it hasn't even been out two months yet, so I feel like I'd want to wait awhile to see if the allure sticks.
Thief 1 would be my clear cut #1 game of all-time. I'd have to think more about the rest. I'm guessing Skyrim, Dying Light, SS2, Doom and some of the early Zelda games would be in there somewhere too.

Max Payne 1&2 were in my top 10 for the longest time too. My current top looks something like this:

1 thief 1=had best mission order and story
2 thief gold=extra missions were nice but the order of missions was bad and they ruined talisman's layout
3 thief 2=dewdrop was epic ,but lack of magic hurt this game,it became to average looking levels
4 thief 3=the turning of character then moving felt like garrett had a hip replacement,everything else was great story/levels,i did not mind loading hubs

I think the idea is to rank the Thief games in comparison to your other favorite all-time games, not against each other.

Thief 1 and 2 are "great but don't rate" for me personally. They definitely land in the top 25 probably:
1. System Shock 2
2. Dishonored 2
3. Deus Ex
4. Zelda: BotW (greatest im-sim of the past decade were it not for D2)
5. Thief: Deadly Shadows
6. Bloodborne (Haven't beaten Elden Ring yet, might swap them)
7. Hitman: Blood Money
8. Dark Forces 2: Jedi Knight
9. Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
10. Starsiege: Tribes
