Are you looking forward to Thi4f after Human Revolution?

Adjusted.

 

Sorry for not answering it yet. Just forgot it.

Last I checked on their forums they are already doing preliminary work for a standalone, and I believe it will get done next year, give or take some thursdays. The bad news is that this standalone version will be incompatible with some of the already done FMs for The Dark Mod. The good news is that they began the work on the main campaign of TDM, which of course will be fully compatible with the stand-alone version.

 

After reading the title of the image I immediately had to check the date, thinking it was a genuine April fool's joke

 

If it was an air pistol it would at least make sense.

You are not open to innovation!

 

Wwwwellll, wwwhut? There is going to be a standalone version of the Dark Mod? With a standalone campaign?? Doesn't this mean that TDM will become the new Thief, and popamolefag publishu can go fuck themselves? (barring that the TDM game will suck, of course).

Hm, I wonder what do the guys at stygianabyss.com think about this.

But great information.

 

a bit too asian and killer llike, but it looks like a real face. The general style isn't even bad, looks a lot like Arcanum. I would take such a game any day, even with pistols and swords, if the only the gameplay was not popamolized. Which of course it will be.

And this is only concept art, they will make it look much worse in the game.

 

It's just concept art. Nothing is definite as to whether the gun-blade will be there.

Otherwise, it looks pretty good.

 

Nice concept art, but the ingame graphics will probably be ruined by the shitty and bloomy Unreal Engine. I seriously hope they re-write parts of the lighting engine.

 

DX:HR sucked because it was Thief pretending to be DX.

Therefore, they should have no trouble making Thi4f (as all they need to do is re-skin DX:HR).

 

Why is there a derpy blade on a gun... What shitty game did I not play that would have prepared me for this?

 

More then just stealth....oh god...all the cheesy, useless fucking things they can come up with...exploiting the fact that Garret sealed the magic of an entire city into himself.

Sorry but...yeah...spells with cooldown confirmed.

 

Its just the sorta shitty fix ideas Dev loves to add based on some previous aspects in the plot, regardless if it fit in or not completely stupid.


New ideas...prgogression...ground breaking,. nextgen....and shit nobody wanted to begin with.

 

fuck

how do we get the Looking Glass team, on Kickstarter or something, to do a spiritual succesor to Thief (or maybe System Shock) or to finish their cancelled ,but awesome looking, game Deep Cover??

 

I think they all died or turned bad.
It's a shame too, Looking Glass was one of those very few legendary studios:
Bullfrog, Microprose, Looking Glass Studios, Origin

RIP

 

I have good hopes for the Dark Mod, which manages to capture the Thief gameplay pretty well within the limitations of the Doom 3 engine. They're already working on a campaign, and the few infos we already have are sounding good.

DarkMod and Thief 2 FMs... while I would like there to be a good proper spiritual sequel to the Thief series, the fans will provide enough quality material to last us for the next few years.

 

You know what sucks? Trying to get a friend to play Thief and hearing "looks boring".

 

I can help. I have a shovel.

 

yes,Eidos Montreal is a promising new studio,DE:HR was okayish

could be a lot worse,like...Cyanide(lol)

 

Thing is, the DX:HR marketing campaign was more memorable than the game itself. It's not that long that I finished the game but frankly, I can't really remember anymore what the story was all about, neither do I remember any characters that stood out. Unlike DX1, which is still so fresh in my memory like I just finished it today.

 

Its the same people who loved DA2/ME.

 

"Most" people also think Halo is the next best thing to Sophocles.
