Nothing new, but another mention from Kieron Gillon. I'm wondering why the
Thief banner is a scan of a worn-out printed image? :p

Thief 4 seems imminent...and thats a good thing.
If they choose to build upon ending of TDS, then the main protagonist would not be Garret. but some female thief. Garret would likely make 'guest appearance' though! :)
Also, it a given that some features of TDS would definitely be in, especially Third Person view, so I expect another round of rant from TDS haters...should be fun! :thumb:

Yeppers, it's most probably Thief 4.
I wonder if they could get Eric Brosius back for the sound design? Of course, that's probably a pipe dream, but hey what's wrong in dreaming? :)

I would really like to find that quote from a TDS dev about wishing they could squeeze another 10 MBs from the XBox (I can't remember the quote accurately enough to hone in on it).
I remember that quote too. I felt really bad for them, because you just knew they were backed against a wall.

Three years of silence, and he's back! Where have you been man?

I think the most obvious route would be playing as the grow-up girl after being trained by Garrett.
Since I really enjoyed T2X I can say that it´s a nice way to move the plot.

Howdy? Whats New on the Horizon?
And oh, I was lurking here, on-off, posted some stuff in General Gaming forum etc. Last I read about your Dark Mod is that in some trailer you had a mansion named on my name, something like that. Apparently no one got that or cared for that. Surely, you could have taken more efforts to make me famous?! :D

Best news i heard in ages!
But i hope they don't screw up! Deadly shadows wasn't a bad game at all but it was nothing comparing to the first 2 games

If it gets all twitch and precision and cannot be played at a leisurely and thoughtful pace as well as fast, I won't enjoy it or get very far. If it adds fancy moves and cannot be played without them, I'm out. Increased maneuverability is very desired, but gymnastics and parkour as necessary tools to solve the game are not. Give us the freedoms we were promised in TDS. Add motion-capture to the improved AI. Give us quadrupeds already! Give us scary enemies that rival our preconceived notions of what the Enforcers were going to be, before we found out they were lame. Do something radical and risky for the good cause of being different and cool, and because it will get stolen by other game companies for being ground-breaking. Don't turn the sneaker into a shooter. Make head-bob a slider-adjusted option. Give us true wide-screen. Don't make it modern day earth as we know it. Don't make the player character a thug or a gangster or a car-jacker. Bring back the sewers 'cause real cities and old
Thief had sewers. Give us crime lords, hitmen, petty thieves, a corrupt mayor, street cops, industrial religious fanatics encouraging urban sprawl, religious fanatic farmers fighting for their shrinking land, and a shadowy group of immensely powerful people that influence the people of lesser power in charge.
Q in its entirety FT.
