How is the mage towers like?
If you went back in time to 1992 and gave the Wolfenstein 3D team ability to make truly 3D levels...

It's interesting to me that after all these years, there are still things in Thief that I've never run across. I never knew there was a note that gave directions as to where the torc was located, and I've never been on that ledge above the area where the burrick and the power switch is. Never even noticed that ledge until Khad climbed up there. I've always picked the door lock leading into the Keeper's place. Never occurred to me to rope arrow over that to escape the sliding wall trap. There have been a few other things in missions that Khad has happened upon that I'd never seen before, too.

And that is nothing new to the community. Exploration and study of the environment, and bothering to check out places that don't seem likely to offer anything, is encouraged. Experimentation with excess equipment (which increases with skill, since the higher the player's skill, the less equipment is needed to get through a mission). If there's a bit of wood texture anywhere. Khad's not so dumb, he just acts like it, and that's one of the two major reasons why he's derided, otherwise, it would be pointless to waste energy on a dummy. The other reason is that someone who's never played Thief might watch and believe what Khad says when he is factually incorrect and think it's true and never play the game themselves.
Quite a lot of discussions on this board cover things people never knew before about the games, and is one of my favorite aspects.

I also think that this is the point where Khad needs to start considering playing at Normal difficulty. Places like the Lost City and Mage Tower are where my Thief fevers usually end. At least, for every level you should ask advice from people what difficulty you should use. Otherwise I fear it could just become too much like work for you.

What's wrong with Lost City now?

So Khad quit his job today, which hopefully will mean more frequent updates.:cool:
Also, he fixed his Fraps menu recording problem, which should make it easier to record videos :)

To be fair, I think he spent most of his work time playing Thief. :rolleyes:
