Every time I play... - by craigsimas

...Oblivion I wish it had elements of Thief. It is close though. That got me thinking about the new consoles, and thier power. Just the thought of Thief looking like Oblivion, with the enviromental effects, and the lighting... etc. I was just reminded how much I miss the Thief world, and I would like to have it again. Whenever I am sneaking around, and my enemies can't 'see' me, and I pickpocket them, or do a stealth kill, I wish it was Thief I was playing. Some one out there with the know how could make a great, marketable 'new' game, after all someone almost did (Bethesda).

Hi pal.
:)
Ya know, with enough raw imagination you can have all these things *without* a big buggy overbloated mess of a game.
Oblivion feels like thief?
Sadly, no. Only a handful of long forgotten crpg's and the Ultimas "feel" like Thief. Minor exceptions surely exist.

WTF is that? It looks freaking great. I hope there are good stealth elements in it. Maybe we have some hope after all, somewhere, someone will get it right.

It's Dark Messiah. There is a light gem, there are backstabs based on awareness level, and there are rope arrows. Some of the Looking Glass people are working on it. Check out the Arx Fatalis forum here for more information and videos.
