Decline The new Thiaf game is MASSIVE decline - Eidos Forum Refugee Camp

[KazikluBey]

It's noticeable that in TDP the story came first and missions were created to fit with it. In TMA, they came up with the missions (at least the ideas for them) first, then tried to stretch the plot to cover them.

I was never much a fan of the "supernatural/new-agey shit" - hearing about that stuff is one of the things that kept me from buying TDP back when it was new and only getting into the series via TDS when that was new.

Oh, no! Some non-central aspect of our holiest game does not appeal to his personal taste!!!

I don't know about you, but I think mystery and supernatural are pretty much central to Thief. If you think Thief is about stealing, then you deserve the shit that is Thiaf.

Isn't it? I've seen a lot of footage of the Thief games that feature the player going around being a thief.

They should do one of those maps for Life of the Party.

Or better yet: The Sword.

EDIT: Am I the only one who notices the watermark?

Not anymore.

Err... alrighty then.

 

[racofer]

That guy seems easily amused.

According to the comments, this is on Master difficulty.

 

[racofer]

Truly a master thief.

I think my favourite part of that vid are actually the conspicuous planks hung above the guards, just waiting to be brought down by a slimey thiaf.

The game is full of such things. Planks, grates, rope arrow spots, just where you need them. Even magical ropes appearing there in the burning house just waiting for you for no reason. Well, other than the obvious one where they conveniently help you escape said burning house.

FFS, Skyrim had better thief game elements.

This. And it's already pretty fucking bad in Skyrim.

Just noticed that this image uses the first mission from Thief 2. Its not like this is the super-duper complicated last mission, no. This is pretty much Thief 2's tutorial. And it already shits on Thiaf

 

[Infinitron]

That's the second mission. The first Thief 2 mission is fairly small/linear by that game's standards.

This mission is actually huge, not Thieves den huge but there are two relatively big warehouses with multiple levels, with a courtyard between them with a crate maze and a lot of guards and even a ship on the other side. There were 12 secrets, I think, I spent hours trying to discover each one, Dear God, I miss those days. Openning the box, reading the awesome manual and spending hours exploring each corner of the map. Is still smile to this day when I remember finding a painting with a riddle that vaguely implied shooting something with an arrow, when I shoot it, there was a secret behind it, I almost came afterwards.

Why people have so shitty attention spams? They appear like dumbfuck hamsters on heroin.

Shitty moderation and white knighting is what they are best at. Don't expect it to make much sense. It never did.

You mean this?

That's right. I just quoted myself quoting others.
