Thread 714125553

Haven't seen a Thief thread in ages, where are you at taffers?

New thief game announced and coming soon I'm hyped

>>714125553 (OP)
I'm planning on playing thief gold soon, any mods needed for the official campaigns, or general advice for settings/bindings shit?

I like to support Thief 2 threads, but not Thief 1 treads. Terrible mission design.

>>714126042
Play the dark project instead of gold, or at least skip thieves guild.

>>714126630
imagine getting filtered by Burricks and zombies

>>714126748
>skip thieves guild
thieves guild is kino and extremely memorable

>>714126773
I'm filtered by the mazes and the almost useless map sketches. I don't like running around in circles and wasting my time.

Mandatory fuck theives guild

>the anon who would rail about how VR should be used for a Thief game instead of another first person shooter was me
Feels good man. I only wish they'd have used the old Thief logo instead of borrowing the shitty one from Thief 4. What should I wish for next?

>>714125784
Its just thi4f VR

what's the recommended playstyle for a first playthrough with regards to save frequency, lethal/pacifism, and side objectives?

>>714126748
Sybau nigger. Gold has the theater

>>714127318
Thief ain't for you, zoom zoom.

>>714127424
yeah that' why I'm asking you oldfags how I should play it

>>714127318
don't otherthink it. Just play

>>714127054
You have to use your imagination to make the magic happen.

>>714127318
1. Install Tfix (lets you have modern resolution and controls, plus no crashing)
2. Play on Expert (you'll miss out on side objectives otherwise, plus no-killing isn't even hard, blackjack > everything)
3. Save-scum as much as you feel is necessary for the first level, after that show some restraint.
Good luck taffer.

I haven't played T2 fan missions in ages, any particular recommendations? Specifically looking for detective stuff, unraveling a conspiracy, etc.

when you get to thieves guild, press ctrl alt shift end to skip it

>>714128376
When you get to down in the bonehoard, press ctrl alt shift end to skip it

>>714128497
>skip the best mission in the series bar cradle
The state of this board.

Have the guys behind The Black Parade say anything about making more stuff like that in the future?

Suffering through the sewers of thieves guild at least once is the mandatory prerequisite for skipping it on future playthroughs. How can you skip a level without knowing what it contains and whether it deserves to be skipped? I feel like 15 years ago it was common sense to play a game in its entirety once and then equipped with the knowledge of the game you can tailor your experience on subsequent playthroughs

>inciting innocent first-time thief enjoyers to end up dropping the game forever upon experiencing thieves guild
Cruel /v/.

>>714131309
Hey, if the sewers are enough to break you, you don't deserve to experience the ludokino that is the Sword anyways
The wheat has to be separated from the chaff

I'm halfway through Metal Age, how is Deadly Shadows?

>>714131751
play the black parade after finishing deadly shadows
peak thief experience imo

bump

>>714126042
the lost city mission is completely hackjobbed in gold. use this mod that restores most of the original level.

So now that Nightdive has successfully put System Shock 2 in their KEX engine do you think they'll go and "remaster" the first two Thief games as well?

>>714131751
clunky 00s era console game. it's ok by itself but coming to it after thief 1 and 2 it's going to feel like needless bullshit forced upon you.

>>714133874
No need
I recently replayed them and they hold up incredibly well
Maybe combine casing the joint and masks into one level but that's it

>>714127318
don't listen to boomers telling you to play on Expert, it might overwhelm your zoomer brain trying to explore everything while also not being able to kill anyone
