Step into the silent shoes of Garrett, a veteran thief with an unrivaled set of skills. The most challenging heists, the most inaccessible loot, the best-kept secrets: nothing is out of his reach.

Explore the sick and troubled City, from its shady steampunk back alleys to the heights of its rooftops. Sneak into rich houses, infiltrate the best-guarded mansions, and lurk in every dark corner... unnoticed and unsanctioned.

Leverage Garrett's arsenal to take down guards with your blackjack, shoot one of your many arrow types, or use your newly acquired focus abilities to manipulate the environment and outsmart your enemies. What kind of master thief will you be?

The non-definitive 2014 edition has already been free on Epic, not sure how different this one is

Is it actually a bad game or just an unworthy successor? Or I guess to put it another way, what would you think of it if it wasn't calling itself Thief?

At the time, the 2014 game was a big departure from what made the original 2 so much fun. Where the original games were more true sandboxes, this one was a bit more on rails and overall less fun. It might be worth a revisit a decade later though, I'm interested to check out what makes this "definitive".

This comment makes it seem like I guessed correctly

Steam already has the Master Thief Edition, which is the same total content which has been available since 2014. The only changes I see are that GOG bundled it into one download for the game + DLC and renamed the bundle to Definitive Edition.

So basically not much! Still, I might give it a look if the price is right.
