Story arc ≠ Universe
But the old Thief Universe was buried under 400 years of fires and rubble. Jenivere is now (err... was) a bird, Basso is not himself, and Garrett is all about fashion and has a different voice and persona. The old Universe was wrapped up nicely and tossed in the waste bin thanks to the story :) Can it be salvaged, or was it "wrapped up" ;)
The lack of Thi5f news at E3 gives me the gloom.

There's roughly 15 years worth of fan missions on this board that say the universe wasn't 'wrapped up' or 'tossed in the waste bin' by anyone except the developers

Indeed! I was kidding :)

Hey, long time no see, man. How are you these days? Have I missed much? Life got a lot busier for me, the forum changed to Square Enix's style, which I'm not to big-a fan of, and there wasn't much new Thief news to discuss, soooo....
Code:
"I wish there was a sloop stall nearby!"

PS: I saw you once did a poll to see which game people liked better: TDS vs. THIEF 2014. You should also do head-to-head polls someday of: T2 vs. THIEF 2014, and T1 vs. THief 2014 ;)

Yeah, ever since that big blow-out back in '12, that place has really tanked...Plus, there's no NuThief community, so that place is a graveyard.

That would be a close one!...:laff:
TDS is smoking NuThief in that poll 90/10...but what do I see?...you haven't voted yet!...:grr:

Hahaha, those collectibles cracked me up :D Nice! Did you make those up?
I just played some NuThief to hear some of the broken record quotes again. I think it's "sloop stall," not "sloop seller," right? Internet search earlier said sloop seller, so I figured if it must be right. (I thought everything on the Internet is fact ;) ). I've edited my post to say, "Sloop stall."
I like the idea of Thi5f having load screens that show images/quotes from Thi4f with the quoted medium being "broken records," instead of ancient scrolls and such, hehe. So many broken records in that game, repeating the same thing over, and over, and over again :-o
Here's where I got the sloop-seller quote from...
Quote:
Considering their limited repertoire (they've done the weird Elder Scrolls thing of having different voice actors record the same selection of five stock lines) they repeat themselves frequently and often to the point of absurdity; witness the guard patrolling the ancient underground ruins where no-one has set foot for centuries who said, and I quote: “
Wish there was a sloop-seller nearby!” If it's not sloop it's coffee, or sleep, or a tooth coming loose, and it never, ever stops.

You're right, I didn't vote. You caught me. I will vote now :) UPDATE: You didn't vote either!! I'm not voting unless you vote! :D

That sounds interesting, maybe good? But, no.... they meant, "sloop." Repeated incessantly in the game. Turns out there is even a recipe you find... it's a soup:
Quote:
(
http://thiefgame.wikia.com/wiki/Document:_Sloop_Recipe)
Father, mother, forgive my crime. This ‘broth', I refuse to use the street term ‘sloop', would not pass for runoff in Auldale. But I must make coin to rub together, and the common man must eat.
Broth base: four parts water, one part animal blood, one part cooking grease.
Boil the base. Add sweated greymeat.
Separately, boil vegetables until the rot rises to the surface.
Skim the froth, add vegetables to base. Add alcohol or pickling brine to taste.
Serve piping hot.
