but there are only 2 thief games, their silly little cousin (T3) and some sets of wonderful mods

Nah, it's actually decent.
Out of three - IMO - biggest issues with the game, most crippling one (missions being divided with loading zones) was fixed by modders. Other two, clunky-ass movement and tedious hub, are worth dealing with.

No need to convince me, I love T3 almost as much as the first two, I was just being a little trollish calling it a silly little cousin. T3 is part of the family, and it is a true Thief game, it just has some shortcoming as you mentioned.

Was hoping someone just made it all up.

I wanna say, let's see what they come up with first... but yeah...

I wonder what people behind development thought when they decided to make another thief. Let's be honest, did it have ANY good thing inside?
Literally every possible part of the game sucked. Every.
Sneaking, AI, stealing, story, level design, city traveling, technicals, long pointless animations, scripted events.
Thief didn't have a single element to give people fun, it was a massive dissapointment and catastrophe.
There's no point in making continuation.
Unless it's a total reboot.
Another one.
:hmmm:

This doesn't really make a lot of sense, does it?

Maybe they lied and told the Hollywood people that they "were working on a Thief game" as an incentive to do the movie (because it would give the movie more publicity).

At this point its not rape, its fuckin necrophilia.

Prepare for nostalgia goggles, new audience, innovations, modern tech an even though we love Thief we need to improve on the flaws of the originals.

"Hey Basso you know tailoring? This sneaking getup I was given is too small and they don't show off my guns"

"Hey Basso while I'm sleeping in your guest room and with your wife, can you get me a new set of lockpicks, they keep breaking under my large fingers."


"The large amounts of time i've spent climbing my own arrows have given me these muscles.............. Well I dunno how they hold me up either Basso."

"They call me a master thief because i'm an expert at breaking and entering.............. mostly the former."
