Why are so many Amnesia custom stories so similar?

It's mostly all about medieval thievery, though, isn't it?

Yeah, it is. I love Thief. I've been playing those fan created mission for years. I'm new to Amnesia. I have found some pretty good ones for Amnesia too. I really enjoyed White Night and some of the custom stories are really good too. I just couldn't help but notice this similar pattern in most of them though. Good explanation. Thanks Old Man.
