With hundreds of links to choose from, I'm not even going to try and guess which one will relax you, since it seems you want more negativity and a bad outcome for me than I've ever wanted for a new Thief title.

I am taking a personal risk by responding to your persona at this point. Listen to me, if you didnt take the time to read jtrs posts over the years... nevermind. This is comical. You want a link to where jtr clearly pointed things out? I shall give you a link to his posting history. What in gods name is going on around here. Perhaps some people spent too much time identifying any negative in his posts, and spent those years not even listening to what he was even saying, to not only recognise, but fully absorb the raw information he presented from the start. If it was up to me, I would block you from his post history, as I dont think you are worthy of this information. Maybe thats what I will do with my time off. I will make a tribute to jtrs long line of illustrious, thought provoking, and visiously intelligent posts on classic game design ideals. Follow along if you can, because its right there in every damn thread, these days.
Question. Why do I need to know his posting history to know...
What have you seen that makes you think Thief 4 is going to be exactly like Assassin's Creed.It's so simple. He makes a statement, I expect him to back it up with an answer. It's not arrogance or negativity on my part. It's the basic freaking rules of discussion and argument. You can't say something without having proof to back it up.
So if he doesn't have a reason to say the things he says. Makes the claims he's making. Then why is he saying it at all? To stir up trouble? To heap pointless angst and melodrama on a board already rife with it? Why?

You don't have to find links. Just make a post in the parkour thread answering...

Thief 4 will be awesome because...
Remember that one? It was so long ago, eh?
YOU look, and try not to read ugliness into it. I've repeated some things elsewhere as they've come up. If you want peace, you gotta want peace.
Renzatic on 6/4/2013 at 05:29
If you want peace, then don't go around making baseless accusations you have no intentions or even means of backing up.
Discussion? That's peace. Or at least a step towards it.
Blah blah blah! THEY'RE RUINING EVERYTHING LOOK AT IT IT LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE THAT DUMBED DOWN CONSOLE GAME BLAH BLAH BLAH! That's stirring a boiling pot.
Or to put it another way, jtr. Practice what you preach.

Tip of the iceberg.

Until this discussion returns to some semblance of order, I can only plead to thee. Renzatic? I almost feel foolish for saying this, but would you please stop "bullying" jtr? lol There is seemingly no intellectually gainful point to what you *think* you are doing here. Yes, you are following the internet rulebook of forum debate to a T, and overachieving in that respect, but the choice of target and application is intrinsically flawed. You are using time tested tactics to try and expose someone who is clearly a never ending font of knowledge and passion for the Thief series! The guy just never seems to dry up. I like you, man, when you are goofing around and stuff, dude, you are funny as all hell. But these long winded counter-jtr posts have seriously got to wrap up, and soon. I have never used my scroll wheel this much. Please? And if you think you can just try and attack *me* now, oh boy... I would *not* do that if I were you. I have all spells through Level 8 committed to memory, and I have a spell of Immolation that I have just been dying to let loose! Not on you, just on anyone Im saying. This is where I am just being a fanatic, because I want to have fun with the video games I love. I dont mean anything by it. Buy Might and Magic X: Legacy (when it triumphantly arrives). :ebil:

jtr7 posted! Attack! Pounce! Zot! Pow! Biff! LOL! Ingratiate ourselves to the popular kids for a sense of power and protection we cannot find within!
Renzatic on 6/4/2013 at 06:04
I was going to write up a post about what it is jtr does that I do not like. And no, it's not disliking Thief 4.
But you are right, I was bullying him, and I probably went a little too far with it. I'll stop.

I love you Renzatic!!! (in a friend way of course) :p

They can't leave Assassin's Creed junk out of Thief.
Please continue.

They cannot let go of their nostalgia for having worked on AC titles and which sold well.
I see...I would think you would have some examples, in order to verify your reasoning behind this.
Quote:
Acrobatics isn't Garrett!
Of course not...That would be something one would see in an AC game.
Quote:
3rd-person pre-determined takedowns aren't Thief! Garrett visibly showing off isn't Thief!
Not THIEF, indeed...Sounds more like an AC game.
Quote:
Totally different, and yet they've built AC into Thief[4]
Meaning, not exactly like Assassin's Creed, but some elements of AC look to be included in NuThief.
Quote:
...and AC's assassins into Garrett,
Yes, his assassin's appearance seems reminiscent of AC.
Quote:
...and turned the rulers and nobility into his targets in an AC fashion...
This is an extrapolation based on an analysis of current evidence, which will likely turn out to be true.
Quote:
...with the big new game mechanic and objective of prominent stealing.
Again, this is an extrapolation based on an analysis of current evidence, which will likely turn out to be true.
Yes, it seems reasonable to conclude that NuThief will includes game design elements that were inspired from Assassin's Creed, given the information received, so far.

What have you seen that makes you think Thief 4 is going to be exactly like Assassin's Creed.
So far, he's only indicated that there will be elements of AC-like gameplay in NuThief...which seems reasonably true.
