I know, but that's always better than making a new thread about this topic...

I also feel that we needed a new thread about this topic.
We haven't done this enough, and I for one would enjoy the oppurtunity to repeat the same old arguments another hundred times.

Ok, it had its flaws - sluggish movement, garrett cant swim, no rope arrows - but it was a GOOD game, albeit not quite on par with its predecessors.
SO, stop whining and accept what has passed.
That is all.
Agree it was an OK game on its own. Just not on the level of a Thief game, thats all.

Guys, you might want to take note that this idiot just dredged up a three-year-old thread.
Well i just responded to the last thing i wrote since i was here!
I see you still visit regularly ZylonBane. Whats your take on the whole Thief DS thing though? I was sorely dissapointed, i wont lie. I thought it killed the thief series. The only reason im back is because of the impending release of the Dark mod :)

I like parts of the old T1 and T2 and I also like parts of Deadly Shadows..

Yup.
It should be understood by all the regulars here that not liking TDS has less to do with how good a game it is, but how bad a Thief game it is after the bar was set already. In fact, for a lot of us, "it was a good/great game" is irrelevant. Lots of games are good and great, but they aren't Thief, they are their own thing. TDS was a cousin rather than a sibling. We didn't get triplets.:p

Pay no attention to ZB. Many new members and players will find threads that are old and post, justly so, to add thier comments.
It is so common as to be expected rather than bitched about. If you want to drive yourself nuts with such nit-picks, then look at all the FM queries and entries in the FMs that are dredged up from day one in some cases.

Yes, they do. And that's why the admins added the big red NECROMANCY WARNING when they try to do it. Doesn't seem to slow them down much though.

Oh Zylonbane, time works rather differently in the thief forums! Years, even decades between replies is but a drop in the ocean of eternity we traverse between unbroached subjects!

Some people are just so damn concerned with the cinematics, and the plot, and the blah blah blah. What about the gameplay? Because if you take away all of the dramatic aspects to the presentation of the game, you are left with core gameplay. The difference here between Dark Project and Deadly is that Deadly cannot survive without the "cinematics". :) Take away all the graphics, sound, and bloom or whathaveyou, and you are left with a really strange handicap simulator. The gameplay in Dark Project was masterful and honed to perfection. The graphics (cutting edge at the time) were just another ingredient in this elite endeavor. The sum total of all these classic elements allowed for a much greater whole. Deadly is like a retarded little brother. One arm went this way, eyes were crossed, drooling all over itself. As you can surely see, comparing Dark with Deadly is not only absurd it is also insulting. So please...
