Is there a thief 2 mission after "Masks" before Soulforge?
TheGrimSmile on 20/11/2010 at 05:44
I don't believe so, but there is a lengthy cutscene that makes a transition between the two.

Correct!
No mission between the two, but the briefing movie is actually a full-colour cinematic.

Not unless a Thief 2 Gold mission would have fit in there. But since they were never ordered (as I understand) we'll never know that.

No, but there would have been a T2 Gold mission in between Casing and Masks (a museum IIRC).

The museum was mission 3 actually. We were going to put Fallen Hammers between Masks and Soulforge, and split the cutscene in two. The others weren't certain according to LGS iirc.

After Masks, the story finally gets to covering all the last details in the briefing, and there's really nothing left for another mission to deal with in there.

Ah, one of my favorite topics. Yes, according to Emil's notes, the mission "Fallen Hammers" would have gone between Masks and Soulforge, if Thief2 Gold was finished. The premise was that Garrett broke into an old Hammerite church, searching for an item that might help him defeat Karras. A Guiding Beacon prototype, perhaps? Or maybe just the blueprints.
Kinda curious MILO, what made you wonder if there was?
