    Yes, in the following mission. For a mysterious reason this ring, which belonged to his father, grants Garrett a complete invisibility when equipped (this is a stealth game after all), but when Garrett needs to attack he becomes visible again and ring needs to recharge (otherwise the game will not be true to original of which devs are great fans).

    At this point Garrett begins to realize that he is the Chosen One. As he unlocks powers within himself (RPG elements) he starts to see green cones extending from guards' eyes and starts to feel guards through walls before he even enters the room.

    And then Eidos will hire Obsidian to make a true to the original addon!

    Thi4f: N4w Ag4. Carrying all the dumbing down from Thiaf plus stuffed with deep and original characters by Avellone!

    Just imagine what a massive incline over Thiaf it will be:

    The game starts with a main character awakening in a crypt. He is dressed in a checkered pants and a pink trenchcoat. He wears sunglasses - one glass is green the other one is red.
    When character walks out of the cave he realizes that this cave is in a middle of a city populated by people dressed in a fullplate armour and thermal visors, carrying massive blasters.
    These are the Special Operations Order led by a mysterious Commander Penguin - a blonde dude, with a blue eyeliner, fishnet pants and a short T-shirt barely covering the belly with a large rainbow drawn on it.
    Immediately the Main Character realizes that he's hunted by Commander Penguin's right hand - Major Bro. It's a beefy cyan-haired tranny wearing sunglasses in a form of hearts, armored bikini stuffed with flashing neon lights and manly boxer shorts. His main weapon is a twin RPG-7 launcher twice his size.
    Major Bro is mute and thus he has to give orders to Omega Protocol of Special Operations Order by blinking with his eyes. Blinking with the left eye means kill the enemy and blinking with the right eye means don't kill the enemy just yet, he has to have a lengthy, 5 to 10 minutes cinematic dialogue with me after which you are to run at him and die.

    Truly the genius of Maestro knows no bounds.

    I bet they will use 3rd person POV to "make it more accessible".
    I hope I'm wrong, though.

    There was a low res screenshot of the character in Third Person POV so....it'll probably be like DXHR and give 3rd person for cover.

    Also, it's on the Unreal 3 Engine so popamole is a given.

    I hope they will add blindfire from behind cover with bows. Devs need to move on with the times and make the game properly immersive and innovative.

    Thi4f won't be Thi4f without explosive arrows - these were not technologically possible when T1ief and 2hief came out, but thankfully now it's 2011

    You could already switch between 1st and 3rd person cams in Thi3f. Thi4f will surely feature gameplay built primarily around a 3rd person perspective with sticky cover, grenade trails, blind-fireable crossbows etc. since it's using the same engine as GoW.

    Oh and I'm almost willing to bet that at some point in Thi4f, you will be able to play as a dark and moody female counterpart to Garret.

    Climbing gloves confirmed (first pic). AssCreed gameplay likely.

    Thi4f logo unchanged.

    Health regen would not be so bad. See thief is supposed to be set in a low magick world, so health potions are not available enmasse. How else are you going to recover health if not use health regen?

    There were plenty of health potions in Thief/II, plus food items. If you die because you've run out of potions and food, it's because you're playing wrong or really badly.
