    It looks like a pretty big departure from the original games, but I'm still looking forward to it!

          Haha thanks! But I am genuinely excited for it. I really enjoyed Deus Ex: Human Revolution - they did a good job of modernising the game while staying true to the core of the originals. Hoping they do the same again here. I'll be going straight in with the 'old school' mode turned on, which hopefully minimizes HUD objective markers and the like.

            Any word on how moddable it is, since that could feasibly clear up most issues people may have with it?

              I would assume it'll be as moddable as DE:HR, i.e. you can patch binaries or replace shaders, but no UnrealEd or anything.

                They switched to Unreal 3 engine for Thief, but I bet they don't release mod tools or if they do they will be pared back.

                        Well... to be honest I will also pre-order, but only because it comes with the soundtrack and art, im a sucker for those.

                        Also unsurprising they are not even including the other titles, Eidos Montreal is really doing everything in to rewrite Thief.

                          Where is the Garret figurine that guy from the Thief 2 making of documentary was on about would be available? ... (one day, over a decade later LOL) Adam Jensen but no Garret…

                            Some new gameplay footage from EGX 2013:

                            It's been nearly 10 years since the last game in the Thief series was released. Eidos Montreal (this plane is getting pretty crowded) show off the hugely ant...

                                Mario KO combo! Hmmm, is Eidos reading this forum?

                                Questions start here:

                                About the gameplay.
                                Lots of hands in sight (doesn't bother me personally), leaning seems to be related to what appears to be a wall sticking ability I hope it doesn't require a special unstic, some sort of crouching sprint that doesn't appear to spend focus?, apparent possibility to climb (but I expect this to be restricted to rare special meshes) using small ledges for shortcut, lockpicking based on TDS, interesting feature to search for more secrets (hopefully a few per level) and the return of scatered level clues which wasn't really there in TDS. No clue about loot objectives but I am assuming it's still in.

                                Level design: its a demo level so obviously linear, they are promissing several ways in, let's see how it goes. I did felt that the inside was very similar to the 2nd mission in TDS.

                                Stuff confirmed once more: no Hammers (), no Pagans most likely no Burricks and since there is a plague going we will probably have some variant of zombies like in Disonored.
                                Focus... hmm... so... traps are there only for the old timers, since you can spot the whole circuit with your ubber eye.

                                But ah! Returning caracters! My hastly made crystal textured UED2 ball is rigging a new Victoria in possibly a similar plot of betrayal similar to the original one but without the part where she has no clothes on after shedding her human form.
                                And the voice actor taking trying to sound more like Stephen Russel.

                                Again, im buying it for the art and also because im still hoping it turns out to be good (I will be playing it with very low expectations), but Eidos needs to understand that if they want to unite the community around this new game they need to provide tools.
