Thief

[Freddie1980]

A bit of a long shot but do we know if this game will ship with any modding tools which will allow players to design their own levels like LGS supplied with Thief and Thief 2?

I assume you can only pre-load if you've bought from Steam?

I bought it from GMG for £18, I was emailed the code last week to preload.

Very disappointing.

I preloaded Thief and Steam seems to have done a further download today. Maybe they are patching the game already?

I see TotalBiscuit has uploaded a review. Can't watch it yet (at work), but my money is on him rating it a stinker.

Glad I did not pre-order. Looks like a solid stealth title though which continues the series legacy and does not look that bad.

However, this one will drop to £10-£15 real quick so will wait until then. Maybe even longer when it is sub £10......

Wonder if they can patch a refund.

He seems to like it. So now i am kinda wanting to play it, even though i recently cancelled my pre-order.

Indeed. Only skimmed through it (haven't got time to watch it now) but he seems to recommend turning off some features to increase the difficulty and make it more interesting/challenging to play. Plus you can harass the NPCs

I am a tiny bit suspicious of some of the bad press the game is getting tbh. Quite a few reviewers seem to be hanging up on very trivial issues and focusing on them as if they are the most important thing.

Really? Are the missions just "get from A to B"?

Seems so from what I've read What is the actual point in this game then?

More like the Kotaku review that devotes two paragraphs to the detail that some windows and doors close behind you, as if it is a game-breaker

if I were a thief I'd close the doors and windows behind me too so no one would notice them
