No idea. If I look at my DLC in steam I own it, maybe it's integrated into the story somehow? Or one of the free missions in the city?

I think it's accessible in-game from the City Hub.
Btw, what's "exclusive fullscreen?"

God this game is trying to be so edgy and failing miserably. Everyone says "fuck" and "shit" instead of taffing, taff, etc. They sucked out all of the lovable humor and made something sterile, lifeless, and scripted.
Also, the bank mission is a side quest. It's not all that big. It's about 5 large rooms...and lines of floor plate traps that Garrett can't jump over just because.

I think it means "fullscreen" basically. I initially had it unchecked, and the moment the game started I was getting MASSIVE tearing. I think the other fullscreen option may just run it windowed-full-screen? Enabling exclusive fullscreen made the vsync options work.

I have a feeling this game is going to take me forever to finish, what with my OCD exploration and experimentation. For instance, even in Lockdown, which isn't very open, there are still short hallways and whatnot to poke around. Right near the beginning of the level, where I thought "what's down there" while watching the official Eidos preview, is a readable. Not a big deal I guess, but still, it seems there are small things like that and the odd piece of loot in areas that you won't see if you're making a beeline to the objective. The guard speech about the lockdown that you can view from the roof is interruptable if you throw something behind them, and, joyously (after how rigid the tutorial is) the game actually lets you jump down off the roof instead of taking the walkways that go over that street. I tried fighting the guards with focus disabled, and it seemed like it would be doable if I had a sword (or if the blackjack does damage - no idea since threat health indicators are off) as you have a dodge key. I was able to whack them about a bit but they eventually started blocking my attacks and stuck a blade in my ribs. Took about 3 hits to die, which seems about in line with Expert on Thief Gold. According to Steam I have 117 minutes so far and frankly, all I've really done is the tutorial, cutscene, and faffing about for a few minutes at the beginning of lockdown.
The swoop is...ok I guess. It's basically like a very short-range blink, but it's kind of hard to control exactly where you're going to end up. I tried to use it to sneak up on a guard who was walking, since the crouch movement is so slow, and ended up running right into him.

Because of people like you who buy these terrible movie subgames the triple A games industry has gone to balls and is dying horribly. The script was written by the same untalented Pratchet something who also wrote the critically disclaimed Mirror's Edge and Tomb Raider harhar

How do you say that, is it
Za-jazzed!
or
Za-jah-zid!
or
Za-schaad!

I've always pronounced it Zah-jazd, myself.

Jesus, don't pay attention to it.
