Thief gameplay preview video

[James]

I haven't seen much in the way of preview for Thief, which isn't always a good sign... Eurogamer has now put up a video, and while it sounds like the game can stand on its own merits it may disappoint die-hard series fans.

I've already put in my pre-order, so I'm remaining optimistic :P

Watched this too now from Eurogamer and came here to post somewhere about it...hoping that maybe it opens up a bit more and also provides a few more choices (I'm not too keen on the game being too linear and/or easy). Also not quite as optimistic as you though so I'll only consider picking up a copy once I've seen a few reviews post launch but at the same time I'm hoping it turns out to be a worthwhile game

Yeah I am a little bit underwhelmed. I loved the original Thief games and expected a little bit more. But it's still early so I'll continue following it, but they don't have my money yet...

Yeah I concur with that thus far; and we've all learnt how much things can change between promo and release

Sounds like they're off to a good start:

I'm super paranoid about spoilers, so I'm not going to watch ANY gameplay footage. I already pre-ordered the game, I just really hope it's not a huge disappointment.

I think most reboots are a let down

I don't know about that. Off the top of my head, I can think of way more good reboots than bad ones, at least from what I played. In fact many of them were pretty damn awesome:

• Mortal Kombat
• Tomb Raider
• Shadow Warrior
• Rise of the Triad
• Deus Ex: HR
• Xcom: Enemy Unknown
• Rayman: Origins

Only time will tell though.

Is it bad that I completely forgot about those.

As for tomb raider that was a let down for me.

It's gone the easy button route ....... no choice is a lose for me. I probably won't even borrow this game purely because of it being that linear, pssssssh.
