Who likes the forth game being called 'Thi4f'?

I just wanted to see who agreed with the name Thi4f...
I personally think the name is ridiculous, for a medieval game like Thief.

I don't know how to respond, because as far as I'm aware, EM have said that Thi4f is not the name of the game. It was just their idea of a clever way to announce it.

I think it looks stupid, just like trying to make it supercool and fail with it. T4 will be my personal name for it.

According to Thief 4 FAQ:

Quote:

Is it really called Thi4f?
That's a working title.

Personally, I think that's just a working title.

First of all, I'm EXTREMELY sceptical about Thief 4.
I know few about it, but in the few I learnt I read Garrett probably wouldn't be there anymore, and that none of the original LG developers were part of the team.
So you can guess I'm never in a great mood about it.

And now I see the title will be as lame as the game...

They will change the name before the game is released. There is no doubt in my mind about that. I just think it's bizarre that they've made t-shirts with "Thi4f" printed on them... :rolleyes:

Brother_Murus, surely you didn't need a poll to see if others agreed with you. Right near the top of the index, this thread has been kept alive:

And recently resurrected:

You are not alone by far and it's no secret.

The same kinds of sentiments are expressed weekly over at the Eidos forum, too, with new threads getting merged into the main anti-Thiaf thread.

People have no life, like the OP.

And Thief isn't, never has and never will be "medieval".

Sorry Mr. jtr7, sir. :o
And I didn't know what to say about the medieval thing, because it's not in the future or the present, but in the past. I don't know what the time Thief is set in is called.

Sometimes, giving a series to an entirely new team can give it a fresh lease on life. Sometimes. I'm hoping this will be the case with Thief 4.

Though I do wish they would at least get Eric Brosius back onboard for the sound. The new guy, whoever he is, has alot to live up to.
