A quote from Mortem Desino

Quote:

"B: Hey. The Dark Mod just released a new version. Ya get it yet?

G: (dismissive) *scoff/spit* 'Couldn't pay me enough.

B: Waaaat? You soft-belly. The Dark Mod is free, open-source, and it doesn't even need Doom 3 anymore. Heh...last time I was there, the servers were all down from all the downloads.

G: Nah, Naaah. It makes me sick. When *I* was a kid...

B: Ho! Surprised you even consider yourself a gamer. "OooOOoH, Thief! That game looks boring!"

G: Shaddap, you taffer! You want fun? You should've been there YEARS ago. 'Tell ya: They games then...they were something to see. Those games, they didn't need no pre-order exclusive DLC, Quick-time events, or cinematic takedowns, or all the knavery you straps to 'em now.

B: No quick-time events? What'd you do? Just...bump into each other?

G: Hah! Naaaah. The games back then, they had stories as good as a novel! And wicked gameplay!

B: Well, the Dark Mod plays a ton like ol' "Thief". But Games look pretty mangy watered down now.

G: That's why I can't stand games now! Y'don't know what you missed. They just don't make games like they used to.

B: Woah! Old-school stealth! Would like to see thaaat."

Good thing that guard can go back to stopping real thieves in the dark mod :thumb:

That guard is compos mentis and would be an extremely formidable AI opponent blocking NuGarrett's cakewalk to the heart of the lion. As a bonus, the guilt that the guard unleashes upon NuGarrett for not being Garrett is a true NuThief challenge to resolve in cutscenes.
