Why? Giving a "brutally hard" mode is pretty normal nowadays.

Gaming has changed over the past 20 years.

Sarcasm based on previous comments in the thread that it was a guarantee the game would be completely dumbed down.

Whew...gotcha. That makes sense, i'm a little slow this morning and forgot about that one poster...

Everything I'm seeing about Thief has me excited...hopefully it turns out awesome.

Yea, sounds like it's really coming along nicely.

Patrick Klepek from Giant Bomb said the demo that was at E3 was pretty bad. He's a big fan of the original Thief and Deus Ex and Dishonored so that's troublesome coming from him.

Not to mention this game has been in development hell for a while and this isn't the main Deus Ex: HR team developing this game.

Yeah, it looked rough to me when I saw it on Spike after the MS conference. It's not releasing until sometime in 2014, so hopefully they can bring it together.

10 minute demo on Gamespot



Doesn't look awful. Graphically it doesn't look too great, and I see what the Giantbomb guys were talking about with the awful dialogue.

Gameplay wise it seems alright. AI doesn't seem challenging, but its a demo so it could be on an easy setting. It definitely doesn't get me as excited as Dishonored did. But to be you aren't a badass supernatural assassin like you are in Dishonored so you can't get as creative.

Still got hope for this one. Not too many games for us stealth guys anymore so hopefully they can patch this up a little better before its 2014 release.
