Thief 4 announced

    I don't get why everyone has such a problem with Thief 3's level sizes. The individual chunks weren't too bad, and the level loads were fast that I just didn't care at all. Sure, it's preferable to have one singular level for the entire mission so you can have a more non-linear path, but the museum level in Thief 3 had that fine despite being split into segments, with the back wing in a separate level but with multiple connections between the front all over the place.

    How about the plot, then? The same city?General ScreenshotThe setting, the character, the story, the features – anything related to the actual content of the game, we cannot discuss for now. What I can say is that people are going to be very happily surprised and impressed. I think that we've put our finger on a number of things. Innovation and originality will be important, and I think it's going to serve this great franchise very well. Even though it's a franchise that we last saw five years ago, we're going to bring a fresh look and a fresh approach. We're always respecting the history and the spirit of the game, but innovation will definitely be quite interesting.

    Is it fair to say that Thief 4 is going to pay attention to the spirit of the previous Thief games, but perhaps not the mechanics so much, then?

    (Pause) We'll see about that! (Laughs) Sorry, Tim. I wouldn't say it in those words, but the moment that we have more information, we'll relay it over.

    This is going to explode heads

    VATS? Maybe they will make it more noobfriendly, so that they can sell more games.

    But seriously, they need to do something about that logo, it doesn't make any sense. 4 = A (from leet) or D (from placement in the alphabet).

    I will don my pessimistic hat and claim it is going to be rubbish so I won't be disappointed when it is or be really happy when it isn't. Yay.
