Plainly stated, if thier CD collection includes N'Sync, Creed, or Britany Spears, they won't get it. If they listen to the Cure, it'll snag 'em quick.
Or Medieval Chamber Music, Gregorian Chants, etc?

I've had little success convincing people to play Thief. Although they are, of course, missing out on something great, I feel with them. Thief has a steep learning curve and require patience above all. And not all gamers have that much patience...
I had ONE friend though, who went all the way. He was a true hero. He even played it on a shitty computer with a broken monitor that was too dark (and, as you know, Thief's pretty dark as it is...) and NO graphics card. But I just had to introduce him to stackin' and he was hooked :D

No graphics card? Wow. So he just played it by ear?

yes. And also; no mouse, no keyboard, and no arms.
Like I said, a damned Hero, he was.

I play Thief in another room using telekinetic powers while the computer is off. Its the only way to play, noobs! :joke:

I find any people i have introced fall into one of three categories.
1. The Coward- barely makes it passed Cragscleft without a change of pants. The Coward usually returns the game to me at approximately the Haunted Cathedral. (The first one)
2. The Dumb Dumb- usually gives up when he cant kill the guards in Lord B's place.
3.The Cowardly Dumb Dumb.

That's very witty, but I was quoting DukeNukem. ZylonBane would've "got" it.
