hm.. 2 year ressurection lol. not sure why resurrections annoy some people, but whatever. some threads are worth it. Post 101, woot lol.
Personally, i think the upcoming thief 4 has great potential to bring back the Viktoria/Garrett thing. They had great chemistry, Ive always believed they came to love one another, despite the past events (IE 'ow my eye!'). It could benefit the games plot greatly. any opinions? about the relationship... not my ressurecting the thread lol.

Well, since Viktoria died in Thief 2 I consider the chance of that happening like... 0%.
Except if Garrett goes crazy and makes a Victoria doll to talk with.

Well, he could always travel back in time, I guess. Or regrow her from a cloned seed?

Shhhh, don't give them any ideas.

Wasn't there a flowerpot in his apartment over the time of TDS? :p

Well, she is a nature being. perhaps she doesn't die permanently, just becomes dormant in the earth or something. never know

maybe like a vine, you can take what bits are left of her and stick em in water until they root.

After the rust gas explosion at Soulforge what could possibly be left of her? Viktoria's gone.
I, for one, am glad to see Dewdrop's still in with a chance - once she gets rid of the flowerpot....;)

I think a love interest is damaging to the narrative flow of Garrett's character. I don't think his interactions with Viktoria in TMA were done well, whether intended as a budding relationship or not. It felt plastic to me. I didn't feel it, and Garrett didn't convince me that he felt it either. I know that's just me, and that doesn't mean a relationship never happened. But I stand by it, I think Garrett would need to experience some profound life changing emotions in order to make a love story believable. The major events of the games aren't enough either, Garrett typically deals with the worst humanity and life has to offer, and this typically drives him deeper into his cynicism.
Lust is a different issue. Did Garrett feel some sort of attraction? Maybe. I would buy into that idea long before the idea that they loved one another.
