I missed The Black Parade.
A download link please. PM me, if it's a secret. :D

Yeah, as Unna suggested with the joking, The Black Parade is not out yet, it's s huge campaign that was only announced this year.

Wow, only one mission released for Thief: Gold this year? Hopefully the Black Parade can make up for it when it does release.

Scary to think that TROTB2, DCE, Godbreaker and TBP will count as 4 missions on this list in 2017, but will actually include close to 40 missions.

Yeah, I definitely take issue with the method of only counting releases. I understand that there's controversy over what counts as a "real mission", but it would be better to list the total number of missions for a year. Just classify a mission as "a level with a starting and ending point", it's not like we get missions that are outright broken these days. Not too many of them anyway.

So, The Tower of Jorge is in; Black Parade is out.

This chart has been using the same methodology since the beginning, which is what makes it good for comparison. PLZ don't break our precious time series. :)

I believe we went over all this last year, though I can't find the thread. Joe Schmoe throws together a mission he spent one night on during a binge drinking episode. Takes 10 minutes to play. Mary Jane slaves away for 3 years on a 12-mission campaign that involved a host of others to complete. At the end of the year, both count as "a release."
Seems a little bogadocious, but the chart isn't there to reward anyone. I suppose the good thing is, we don't get garbage from our authors. I've been very impressed with the FMs released by noobs that come close to what the old pros have put out.
Ahh, it's been another fine year. Let's hope for many more.
