I'm just wondering, does anybody have what The Eye says in Thief 3 written down? I couldn't quite hear what it was saying at certan points.

Go to the options menu and click on the box next to "Subtitles" :angel:

Those subtitles are handy. I forgot about them the first time around. . .and the second until I could not make out what the Enforcers were saying. Click that and suddenly you can 'hear' everything. lol
The only thing I don't like is *where* they come up. They aren't hugely 'sub'(lower in the screen would have been nice)

There's probably something in the config files you could tweak to change the text size and placement. I haven't checked, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's in there somewhere.

The only quote by The Eye in Thief 3 that I can remember completely -
"Did they cry? Did they scream 'Do not do this thing, it will destroy us all!'? I suppose that is what they must believe. And I suppose they are right."

Them all =
[SPOILER]1.I’m over here, little man. Can you see me, with your one good eye?
2.How will the man get to me? Thinking, planning...but only the stealing will bring us together.
3.Comes a thief in the night. Am I the prize? But I like this place. So many humans…they entertain me. What have you to offer?
4.It’s been a long time, little man. You stole me then. And here you are to steal me again. Fascinating.
5.So you've found me once again, little man. But I'm down here sleeping, in the arms of a statue. Do you want to see me? Then go to the curator's balcony - there you must raise me up.
6.Do you miss your eye, little man? I've seen many interesting things with it. Some day I might come looking for the other one…
7.I never thanked you for your eye, little man. Who knew that humans could have such keen vision? And yet see so little…
8.We have much in common, little man. We are both marked…destined always to be part of history…never just observers.
9.Who knew you would survive this long? I'm rarely impressed by humans. I admit, I never expected to see you again.
10.These machines tend to damage little humans like you. There’s a room with a switch that makes them stop humming, if only for a while. I could tell you where it is, but that would spoil all the fun…
11.Collecting all the Sentients, is he? This could be interesting. Only once before, long ago, were we all together.
12.Trying to get all the Sentients, little man? Now I remember, old plans, long long ago. The safeguard, should things go…astray.
13.Ah, it’s my brother, The Crown. So now the thief fancies himself a king, does he?
14.Ah, you have found my sister, The Heart. Does she whisper to you? Many have wiled away their very days waiting for just one word from her.
15.You have found all my siblings, little man, all five of us. I believe we will consent to come along on your journey. This should be exciting.
16.What are you doing, little man? Do you know about the ancient plan? The pact between us Sentients and the early Keepers? Or do you act on instinct?
17.Ah, the failsafe, the Last of All Glyphs. Have things become so bad then? So soon? Tempting is the power of the glyphs…and weak are little humans, like you.
18.We share flesh and blood, thief. It is through your eye that I see. Painful, was it not? To lose it. But that's why you are the One. Only you are attuned to me. And only I can initiate the failsafe.
19.Did they cry? You're quasi brethren? Did they scream 'Do not do this thing! It will destroy us all!'? I suppose that's what they must believe. And I suppose they are right…
20.The other Sentients… so sad and simple. Most of them cannot even speak yet. But we are all happy to have our potential unlocked at last, our power. But only I am the final one. The last one.
21.Fascinating. I thought that Hag was trying to reunite us all. But now I see it is the thief who wishes to unlock our powers. Either way…our destiny approaches.[/SPOILER]

and there in lies the main plot problems of thief 3. *sigh* so much potential.

I thought Thief 3's plot was the best in the series by far. More developed characters, more twists, with just as much depth as the previous games.

care to elaborate?
Slato Metakide on 5/5/2006 at 05:43
Yes, care to elaborate? Or just satisfied with making an empty comment and then leaving?
Perhaps pass like a shadow and matter not in history, and leave those attuned to be part of history and just be a mere observer, just as The Eye said.:joke:
