That was incredible!
I adore the warehouse scene at the start. The lighting and detail there is sublime. To be honest if it had stopped there I would be happy. But then going on to show rope arrows and funky mantling, swimming, massive armoured guards.. Great stuff.
I liked the team name as well.

That was thrilling stuff, you guys really have managed to capture the feel of the first two Thief games (maybe just a little too well, given how basic some of the textures look at this moment in time ;)).
Looking forward to this a lot more than I ever looked forward to Deadly Shadows, that's for sure :)

Yes, guilty as charged. :) However, the maps you see are only 'test' maps...mainly proof of concept or for tech and at this stage aren't what I would call playable. Although, the footage is much older and the AI have matured since then, so they are definately beginning to react in a much more thieflike manner.
Sounds good. Was that also the reason why the water seemed to be missing shaders? It looks illuminated or something. :)
I have one more question. (Perhaps something to add to the FAQ?) Will it work with Doom 3 on Linux?

That's the plan.

After finishing thief 3, I thought to myself "god what a disappointing gaming engine for a thief game this was"... and now I see this!
Anyhow, the video... where to begin....
first off, the movement, very nice, just fast enough to feel like thief.
Secondly, the limited ragdollynes, I like it, these guards really FALL down to
the floor like a human being would, they don't dreamy-esque-drop-into-a-strange-shape like the TDS guards do, great work!
(even though I understand it's in beta stages)
The rope arrow really got me going "oooh" and "aaaah" because it damned looked like ROPE! (I couldn't spot any jagged edges!)
But, most of all.. the graphics are great, and the enviroments, albeit TEST enviroments really blew me away! That mansion, hahah, nice touches, and the shadows.. great work!
Goddamnit, that last throne in the darkness just beckoned at me, it told my thief inside me that the place in question would have alot of loot, and hard to get aswell! And honestly, TDS failed miserably in that regard.
So, to sum it up, your demo *feels* like a thief game should, now .. time to prove it ! :D
So kudos to you guys, for proving that thief has now grown into something that's larger than lookinglass studios, or eidos for that matter, it's turned into it's own reality. God I love you all taffers who makes this real =)

You compare a full game and an editor..

So? You somehow forgot to make a point... (And here's my point: An editor that is as flexible as the one they're going to provide + a community with highly talented mappers = lots of Thiefy goodness.)
Great trailer - very exciting! Any news on how much more taxing this'll be to our machines than regular Doom 3? In other words, will a P4/3GHz with a Geforce 7800 GT and 2 gigs of memory be just fine, or is my processor slowly getting old?
And one nerdy quibble: "The faithful didst"? If I'm not mistaken, 'didst' is second person, not third. ;)
