"I know someone's gonna 'Aah you could've just gone up to the mansion, taken a left, a double right,
a double back left track right up, climbed a rope arrow, then climb six ladders, up back left
and then another right and you would've been RIGHT to the streets, but you went ALL the way, back
THROUGH the mansions and you went backwards and went in a circle.. AGAIN! Ugh! Khad you're so bad
at this game! I don't know why you bother playing it, why you blame the developers every time you
make a mistake.. why don't you have any sense of humour and think that you're being 100% serious
in this LP when you're yelling and stuff and telling people that they're f****ring g**bubbles or
va***a bloodf***s or d**k-cheesing, q***ring don't make the world work and b***loafs..' " - Khad
Impossibly hilarious.. :cheeky:

Ha, it's funny how much like a normal FPS that is.
(But no, really it did: "Thief was first conceived in spring 1996 as "Dark Camelot", a game focused on sword combat. Its plot—an inversion of Arthurian legend—featured Mordred as the protagonist and Arthur as the villain.")

It looked like a poor man's Hexen2 (which was really nice by the standards of the day). It has come a long, long way. Though I wouldn't mind playing a game or even FM campaign based on the original concept.

It was nice to see him enjoy Constantine's, however minute an amount of enjoyment that may have been. I think it is certainly one of the most visually impressive levels in all of Thief, so I'm glad he didn't completely ignore that

Then again, he's a USian, so he's a retard by default until proven otherwise
You, sir, are a faggot

OMG hehe LOL this guy's frustration is hilarious! I have the feeling he won't finish the whole Thief series, though. like he announced in the beginning.
I have to sympathize with him about some things. The absence of locational damage, and having to shoot guards in the face like 12 times before they fall is frustrating. Ladders DO suck in Thief - though ropes are AWESOME! The textures for OMs 1 and 2 do really suck. And a lot of stuff feels unfinished or maybe not well thought out.
I have a certain amount of admiration for how he stuck to it, in spite of his frustrations. I hurt my ribs laughing last night, and watched a few of these vids until about 3am.
Fave lines?
-"Yeah! Drink much last night?" (crooked walking ai in Training Mission)
-"I killed innocents? What innocents? Who's innocent in a prison?"
-"Dinosaurs? They have F-g DINOSAURS?" (sighting 1st burrick)
-"I've killed myself more times than the ai's in this game! I'm a bigger danger to myself than the f-g enemy!"
-"I LOVE this game!"
-"I HATE this game!"
Khad can't be all bad - he loves his blackjack ... :thumb:

Forgot to mention I consider this video the classic training video of where NOT to autosave in a game. Through the whole thing, he saves in all the worst possible places - AFTER losing tons of health, while hanging on a rope from which he can't safely make any jump, standing in a lighted area with ai coming after him in droves, AFTER he uses up the fire arrows he'll need to solve a puzzle coming later. Almost every time this guy saves, I cringe.

Because it's a pro save. Only pros use it correctly.
Nah seriously, Khad fails at quicksaving pretty often but regardless of how retarded one claims him to be, his progress in game comprehension can't be denied. And although I don't expect him to reach Soulforge by Christmas (at least at this pace), there's a chance that it will be a so-so video showing Thief gameplay (unless he decides to go on a killing spree again. that will hurt)
For now, I'm looking forward to seeing his dealing with Torc's guardians :ebil:
