It has been 7 or 8 years since I had played Thief 2.. A few months back, I was going through some stuff in my desk and came across the set of disks, so I decided to install it (special thanks to the developer of Tafferpatcher).
My first instinct was to play some of the newer FMs. But I decided to start at the old FMs on Thiefmissions. I started back at the earliest FMs and working my way up. Honestly, I have forgotten many of these. So it has been kind of like starting fresh, again. Some fantastic, some weird, some are creepy, and some just don't make any sense.
But regardless, thank you to EVERYONE!!, over the years for keeping this game alive! It is still the only PC game I have ever really liked. So, it has been a real treat running back through these old missions.
(FYI - I am getting closer to that !@$#%! Elevator Mission. That craziness no one could ever forget!)
Cheers All!!

I've yet to play Elevator Mission - maybe one day.
You're quite right though, RJS66, our 'Thief fan mission authors' are an international treasure to be nurtured and kept happy with cake and beer and 'thank you' on a regular basis.

Absolutely true! I can't even count the hours of fun I've had over the years with all the FMs and I greatly appreciate the time and trouble people devote to making them. Thanks! :)

Welcome back! If it's been that long, you have missed some truly outstanding missions. So when you're done with the old ones, you have some serious catching up to do. : )

I remember bits and pieces of some of these old FMs. Like, in Art Of Thievery.. I remembered immediately being able to scale the gutters and that giant angel watch statue. But from there, I recalled nothing. So, just like starting over again :D I figure I have a good year to go before I get through the entire list of T2 missions, then I will probably go back to the Dark Project FMs and do the same thing.
And now, with a considerably faster PC, larger screen and really good full sized headphones, this game is much better!

Install Necro Age for some added visual enjoyment. Very atmospheric.

Okay, so maybe I have a few years of enjoyment out of the 850 T2 FMs.
