Did the removal of Gamall's powers stopped "animating" the Cradle, or is the building still maliciously active in spite of her no longer affecting it?

Speculate away!

He wades through sewers, waist-deep filth and damp caves on a nightly basis, and yet he never seems to catch anything. On top of that, he moves through centuries of dust without leaving so much as a pawprint, like a cat.

His cloak and the hem of his clothes must be absolutely saturated with every disease known to the City. And given how much time he spends down in the sewers, there’s no way that man isn’t hosting a thriving colony of fleas and crabs in every bit of body hair he’s got.

My own pet theory is that his shadow-blending is actually a bit of Keeper magic rather than pure stealth. If that’s the case, maybe the glyphs ward off plague too?

Just had to crouch-walk and it’s not easy to sustain. Our boy must have legs of iron - the Builder would approve.

I’ve recently started a playthrough of the dark project while using roguepatcher on the steam version to make sure the game works well on my legion go 2, and for some reason the briefings won’t work. What’s a good fix for this?

There's a certain sword swoosh sound effect in Thief that I've heard in other places. It's in System Shock 2 when you use the wrench, Arx Fatalis when you use some swords, and I think in Deus Ex as well. In Thief's own sound files, I'm pretty sure it's the one labeled SWORD4, and in Arx Fatalis it's labeled whoosh06. Does anyone know where this comes from? I know Looking Glass used the sfx library The Hollywood Edge for some things, but I can't determine if that library is the sound's origin.

Klatremus, who mostly posts Supreme Ghost videos, will on occasion issue a challenge in the middle of a mission. Usually involving getting a hard-to-acquire item while adhering to Supreme Ghost or Ghost Rules, I've found these challenges to be quite enlightening for my gameplay. I recommend checking them out to anyone who's willing.

Hello,

I would like to share my recent work with you. It's a UI modernization attempt, using a minimalist but functional and focused design.

Disclaimer: It is just a mod that i did with my hard work, on my spare time (no AI used) and I'm not forcing you to like it or use it. Take that in consideration before posting the usual "the original was better and my life sucks so I'm going to put it all on you" 😄

EDIT: New version released, less bland. Since i can't edit the image from this post, just check the Nexus page for up to date screenshots.

Feel free to take a look on the Nexus,

Hey everyone! I’m writing a series of dark, comic-noir audio stories about a professional modern-day thief named Vance—a character heavily inspired by Garrett’s clinical pragmatism and shadow-dwelling tradecraft, mixed with the real-world methods of elite cat burglars like Blane David Nordahl (the Silver Cat Burglar).

​The stories are built on authentic lockpicking rather than Hollywood clichés like picking a high security lock with hair pins. The first episode is set in Vienna, Austria.

​Instead of a mechanical blackjack and water arrows, what kind of modern gadgets, specialized tools, and EDC arsenal would a present-day Garrett use to slip through a high-end European estate without leaving a trace?

​Curious what gear real Thief series enthusiasts or fans of the genre think a modern master thief would keep in his tactical bag.

​(If anyone is interested in the feel of the audiobook/comic-noir adaptation of these stories, you can find 'em on YouTube as "Thief Archives: Ghost without name")

A bit damaged and a little sloppy, but I was just a wee little taffer back then.

Out of all the Thief fanfiction you've read or FMs you've played, what are some ideas or theories that you've particularly enjoyed or thought were worthy of being official canon?

I suppose this is also a request for fanfic recommendations, if you have any. I'm particularly interested to read anything that explores the history and mission of the Keepers, tries to make sense of the series's cosmology, or just paints a broader picture of Thief's world and the City's place in it.

Bonus question: if you had to give the City a name, what would it be?

i completley get why its hated though, its a massive departure and is the obligatory DmC treatment thief got out of some other games in that era, but it was a ver sloppy production and pushed out the door, im sure it wouldve been great had it been given just more time. i hope it starts becoming more liked like max payne 3 is being liked currently after being shat on for a decade. and honestly its a pretty solid game, with its glaring flaws but its not unplayable or an abomination against the franchise

Just fixed my computer and the first thing I'm gonna do is be awesome and play THIEF FMs. I want to finish my first playthrough of Black Parade since my PC broke during it, but I want to play some single level FMs to get back in the swing of things. Any recommendations whether spooky or cozy?

So, I'm attempting platinum and I need to find a collectables guide for the area/chapter I'm in.

Chapter 2 is the area where we steal the ring from the dead guy. I've checked a few guides and they end after we knock the guy out and leave.

HOWEVER, where's the rest of the chapter 2 guide? Chapter 3 puts me straight into a new area that I haven't played yet so I can't be on chapter 3 yet and the door I need to go through says next chapter, which I haven't gone through yet.

I've spent forever collecting everything thinking this was a single chapter (after we escaped with the ring) and wanted to check a guide to see if I've missed anything before I head to the House of Blossoms.

Why is this section missing?? I've definitely found a collectable and a note so this should be a place to search. It says I'm at Raker's Ditch.

I feel loopy and lost 😅

Not sure if this has been clarified - but will the catalogue of fan missions work in the remaster?

Will thief 2 fan missions work (i.e. Is it the new dark engine being used?).

Will the fan mission loaders work?

Will total conversation type FMs such as black parade or Thief2 Gold work?

I fell out of the fandom a year ago and haven't been participating much, but want to get back into things--what are some of the best FMs to come out in the past year?

Thanks!

My Oculus Rift S just arrived today, is it possible to play Thief 1 in VR?

The first Thief game I played was Thief (2014) on PS4, but I recently picked up Thief Gold, and I’m really, really liking it so far.

I honestly didn’t expect a game from the late ’90s to feel this polished. It still feels rewarding and fair, and I really like how much the game expects you to figure things out for yourself and use the environment as a tool to complete the level.

What Thief game do you have the strongest connection with and why?
