I've only watched three of the Thi4f videos but I fully intend to watch them all... uh, some day.

I've been using the thi4f videos as background noise while I play kerbal but i actively watch the dark mod vids.

I'm not sure, but based on some discussion I've read about possibly moving the note before reading it, if you manage to break the scripting for that area in any way then you basically just wind up stuck.

I am enjoying both halves, both ripping mercilessly on G4rr4t [and occasionally showing a few decent parts of the game where it could have been so much better] and showing off the love and care of the Dark Mod, grime and all.

I can I'm looking forward to seeing where the level goes next. Everyone - including Looking Glass - seemed to be of the opinion that normal human-inhabited environments were the way to go after Thief 1, but personally I like exploring the more unusual, maybe "uninhabited" places as well.

I think that the burning witch that was mentioned in the Tales of the City book on this map was actually the Lich Queen, not the Hag. The ruby statuette is probably another dark mod map. It's nice for them to build this interconnected world thing, and it seems like we're going to get into more of that Lovecraftian stuff that has been occasionally hinted at in both the dark mod and the original Thief trilogy.

Just because Thi4f is a game that should be mocked doesn't mean the LP videos aren't worth watching. Bobbin & Co. make them quite worth my time to watch! As for the Requiem map so far, all I can say is GODDAMN GIMME MORE. It's just clever and beautiful and well done and has so much going on around it that you know it's a living, breathing city and you're just one person in it. And how that video ended? I felt like "Aw yeah here we go"

As a matter of fact, I do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YxS1ML88P1I The singer's name is Marianne Lihannah, and the work was evidently composed sometime around AD 1220.

Awesome, thanks Bobbin! That song is definitely one of the level's high points, and hopefully we'd see more of its like in the level.

Ah, Bobbin. You sounded so depressed when you said "Welcome back to Thi4f" that time. Don't worry. It's almost finished. Then you'll be free of the brain-melting stupidity.

NuGarret may be a drooling cretin with less personality than the plank of wood his ancestor appeared to be, but at least he's not an actively hateful sociopath with little beady eyes and an "Iconic(tm)" cap.

That guardbox moment was just magical. Still, it deserves mentioning that even for its final big setpieces Thi4f resorts to ripping off its much better prequels. Project Cetus, that was a great level, let's water it down.

I'm sure there's a Dnd feat exploited in a campaign that lead to the events of that battle sequence. My guess is hide in plain sight used wrong.

I have no idea why but for me at least, your youtube image on lpix is broken. If I go directly to it, it comes up for a brief flash and is instantly gone, despite ublock not having any filters for it (at least, none that I put in, and other lpix images work fine). Mildly annoying because I use youtube to watch the videos because I hate dailymotion's autoplay and also magic actions lets me fit youtube videos to full window size. Edit: I have found something that at least looks like the three-bladed "surgical scissors" in Thi4f. Took me a bit to track down the actual source because it's been used like crazy in a bunch of clickbait site articles about crazy medical tools.

One thing that The Dark Mod definitely lacks are non-human enemies other than the undead. There are spiders and one extremely harmless and innocuous-looking bot and that's pretty much it. Some of the monsters from the first Thief were downright silly, but sometimes I miss them.

Each video of Requiem will impress you more than the one previous. I'll leave it at that. I personally think the stuff implemented in the next section of the fm is a paradigm shift for the game, and should be included in any future stealth game that aspires to Thief-style gameplay. It's that good.

Can we, like, gather a huge pile of money to throw at the people who made the Requiem map and get them to make a new Thief game? Because so far I am loving 100% of everything they do with it.

I would personally recommend against it- although I think the map is incredible, the creator is also apparently a strong follower of Reverend Sun Myung Moon. I think this might have appeared in the first video, but the fm is dedicated to him and there's an easter egg reference to him(46:42, "Delivered us from the Evil", the only casket that gets that line) and everything. Not someone I'd particularly want to give a AAA budget. I'm content for a future devteam to appropriate all his ideas. Discendo Vox fucked around with this message at 08:36 on May 15, 2015 |
