Is Erin from the end of Thief 3?

No, that girl was unnamed. This is a reboot too, so she's a new character. I remember back in the Thi4f forum days we would speculate if the girl from Deadly Shadows would come back and how it would work: maybe as a sidekick, or a new protagonist, or alternate campaign...

Fuck, nobody predicted this.

Didn't expect anything less but it still hurts.

Will it have dubstep for the final boss fight 5 hours into the game?

Ahhhh, I see. Garrett isn't a thief! It all makes sense now.

He's some kind of stabby jumpy broody photo-op romancey cool dude hero. Guys, it's fine, everything is correct, Garrett just changed his profession.

It hurtsssss!

How could anyone think this trailer should get not only approved, but budgeted and produced? It is embarrasing. The music! The evil mc evilguy ritual! The sidekick/love interest falling into the portal! The... I mean, I get it, this whole project reeks of a group dynamic where someone pitches in bad idea after bad idea, and it goes into production because everyone around the table prefers drawing a paycheck to actually speaking up about the hideous problems everywhere. But, damnit, these clowns could at least have tried making something like... well, not Thief or Dishonored, but maybe Deadly Shadows or DX: Human Relations. :deadhorse:

At first i was like where are these guard sounds coming from? Then i realized, you are the guard? You play as a guard in this mod, catching taffers? That sounds ... interesting.:o

So, I don't know why but I decided to check the Eidos boards out of boredom and, yep, stumbled upon some classic "mods twisting words" shit on the VGX thread. This isn't even funny anymore. Stop trying so hard.

So, I contacted the Eidos forums admin and he is pretty cool.
My ban is lifted, and I can continue to spread the love all over the forums.

Even if it's just delusional hopes that they won't screw the best series ever.

They already have. Sure hope you like EPIC! and AWESOME! and IMMERSHUN!

Also, from that german vid, I thought focus was supposed to be optional in this decaying abortion, but apparently you have to use it to pick locks?

That trailer looks so incredibly generic. Looks like a mix between Diablo 3's brand of generic plus a lot of Dishonored "influence". I also don't know why they seem to be forsaking the use of color in the backgrounds, it's not like you need to make everything black in order to generate a "dark" atmosphere anyways.

I'm not gonna read this huge-ass thread but I just saw the new trailer for Thief and I have to say, looking good! Garrett's new voice is great, never liked the old one.

That's not how you troll Thief fans. Have you learned nothing from reading this 155 page thread? You need to throw a "i will be playing this on console" bone otherwise it doesn't stick. For maximum pain enjoyment tell us how the old one was unnecessarily complicated and that the removal of features streamlining is a good thing.

Overall :1/5: would not get trolled again.
