Thief is awesome but this is utter nonsense

The love affair with Eidos Interactive's Thief ended here when the game decided it was time to bite back after too much sneaking around. It sets a bad precedent that games can be released in an unfinished state with the aim of patching after money has exchanged hands.

I just played through this section once... twice... and a third time trying to replicate. Sorry it's happened to you.

I just finished it few hours ago on Ps4, I didn't encounter game-breaking bugs like BetaField 4. Very few minor bugs, nothing game breaking.
Sorry for the player.

starchild3720d ago (Edited 3720d ago )

I didn't experience any serious bug either. The most I saw was a guard spinning in a circle a couple times. I've seen bugs in every game, and no more bugs in this game than in the majority of games.

I'm playing the PC version on an HD 7950 btw and it runs extremely well.

legionsoup3720d ago

Nearly every game has glitches. While I agree with you that this sucks, nearly every single game these days gets released with the expectation that a patch will fix any bugs they don't find.

Also, the video doesn't address the fact that you can just reload the last save (or if reloading the last save doesn't work).

I played through Thief on the PS4 without any issues.

ziggurcat3720d ago

that's bad, but it's just a bug... and probably not a common one, either because i replayed that three times without any issue.

choujij3720d ago

I played the PS3 version. The only "glitches" I experienced was often when the city/level was loading, you could see the higher res textures popping in.

BlackBeardGames3719d ago

Finished the game 700 difficulty on X1. Love this game only bugs i have seen are rolling without pressing a and a spinning guard once. Played level in question twice once for story and once for collectibles. No glitch.

Thief - Taken From Us Too Soon

The Thief game series has had many ups-and-downs, and 2014's reboot showed a great deal of promise nearly a decade ago.

Notellin295d ago

This would be such a great franchise to reboot. A darker game than Dishonored, but focused around stealth and large scale heists from an oppressive monarchy.

That's probably my dream game. I love immersive sims and stealth!

Noskypeno295d ago

People say they hate forced stealth sections in games. But a game focused on stealth with good mechanics and level design feels refreshing from the guns blazing games which I also enjoy. I really enjoyed playing Splinter cell, a game that not many try to mimic today. Not too many games let you shoot lights out, or throw cans or bottles to distract guards. Sure there are games with stealth options like the new Wolfenstein but it doesn't feel necessary to play it that way. Hitman might be the only game that has that feeling, except for that Korean game that may or may not ever come out.

You should try the Sniper Elite games, so good, especially with coop

Notellin294d ago

Same here. I'm glad there are some other people who enjoy these types of games!

@isarai I tried Sniper Elite 5 and ended up really enjoying that one. Went back and played 4 as well!.

The last one was a trainwreck and has been in the bargain bin since just after launch. If they bring it back, they need a massive change in direction.

Inverno295d ago

only direction they should take is putting it in reverse and going back to what the originals did. I couldn't finish this game, and I made a choice to never play it again. I watched a video about the og Thief and Deus Ex games and the current AAA standard will forever hold back these games. These 2 games alone had already solved so many problems with modern gaming that I don't think they'll get a chance at something great unless they're made by a dev that actually give a damn.

monkey602295d ago

Jesus the last installment sells at about 2 euro and even that is over paying for it. Absolutely diabolical game

SimpleSlave295d ago

Ups and Down? More like Up, UP, Pot Hole, Free Fall into the Abyss...

Rutaprkl294d ago

Thief Deadly Shadows remaster would be awesome.
