Hey, I'm starting a Thief thread today. Ya wanna come with?
>>339861979
What does a Thief ripoff need to be good?
Anyone wana coop?
>>339861979
Bah! Couldn't pay me enough!
>>339862070
New ideas, beyond obvious improvements to AI and graphics (since TDM covers that). There's no point to simply replicating Thief's gameplay, since the developer in question will probably not be able to outdo the originals and the collective efforts of all the FM authors over about 2 decades in terms of level design. So basically it shouldn't be a Thief ripoff.

Garrett needs to become a transgender woman named Janet. Also, romance options.

I thought the co-op mod was abandoned.
>>339862070
sound propagation
>physically based rendering is real
>physically based sound propagation nowhere to be found in simulations
>>339865939
It'd be too difficult to track how much noise you're making if the sound properly propagated.
Don't open this.
>>339863442
why janet?
Actual living level design, none of this faux corridor bullshit.
>>339862070

Is the "Objective Complete" sound supposed to play when I enter Lord Baffard's mansion? I have the GOG version and I never hear it.
>>339871389
In Thief Gold, I believe it only sounds when you get a new objective during the mission. In Thief 2 they started using it for completion and secrets.
>>339870758
I wish there was more pirate themed Thief shit.
>>339862070
Basically do what Dishonored did.

The level where you steal the Black Sword freaked me the fuck out, especially because the cutscenes weren't working on my version of Thief Gold, so I was going into the levels with as little context as possible

>especially because the cutscenes weren't working on my version of Thief Gold
Oh shit nigger what are you doing

>missing out on the cutscenes
For once in a game you're missing out on not watching them. The cutscenes are short and look amazing.
>>339873586
>>339873501
I actually don't mind. The lack of context I get going into the mission just makes them more fun for me.
It's like getting dropped into a labyrinth with a sack on your head.
>>339873732
You'd probably like Ultima Underworld and the first System Shock.
>>339873874
I played System Shock 2.
>>339873117
I thought Dishonored was a bad thief game made for this retarded generation.
>>339863889
>arrows react to physics
This game was really ahead of its time.
>>339874668
Did you play Thi4f?
If not, do it. Then go back and try Dishonored again.
IIRC, Dishonored actually had some of the old Thief team.
>>339875015
That's true for pretty much all their games. LGS was too good for this world.
>>339875042
Thief 4 is definitely worse than Dishonored. I don't think anyone would argue differently.
I just don't think Dishonored was a very good Thief game regardless.
>>339874668
the problem with Dishonored is that it's too easy, and gives you so many ways to kill enemies that a true stealth approach isn't worth it.
>you will never ghost levels like Travis Whitsitt
I'm don't usually watch lets play, but his ghost playthroughs of Thief are amazing.
>>339875607
>no ghost tdp
>>339875160
That is entirely fair.
RIP Looking Glass, you were too much class for this world.
If some Elon Musk type motherfucker wanted to turn the vidya industry inside out, they'd have to find and recruit all of the former LGS staff, give them 10mil and then walk away for 3 years.

THIEF LOOKS SO OUTDATED
FORTUNATELY YOU CAN FIX THAT WITH SOME HD MODIFICATIONS
>>339880537
ACTIVE, MODERN CHAPEL OR DECREPIT BONEHOARD?
YOU DECIDE

>>339880645
>thief hd textures
I hate this mission, I always justtoss a skull next to the door that closes behind you, door canĀ“t close when the skull is blocking it. Walk in, walk out, mission done.
>>339880924
How about some extra trees?
It's nothing like HL2 ferns but the creator tossed in some trees here and there for some reason.
>>339880924
This is why I don't use HD textures with older games, it doesn't fit with the low poly models at all.
>>339880937
That doesn't work in Thief Gold
>tfw going through pic related for the first time
jesus, this game could give me the chills like nothing else.

WHERE DID I FOUND THAT KEY?
>>339877528
Closest thing to LGS right now is Otherside Entertainment.
They're making Underworld Ascendant and System Shock 3
Maybe this universe will wink at us taffers and have Square Enix rent Thief to OSE for one title. Selling the IP and voiding the chance of publisher slapping developer wrists would be a godsend.
