Thief demonstrates the pinnacle of an up and coming industry that abruptly came to a dead end fork in the road. The game is a national treasure as far as I'm concerned. If Thief was a part of your childhood like it was mine, then you had automatically been set up for perpetual disappointment as you now well know. I was 13 and I remember being so excited about the future of the gaming industry, thinking "Wow, this is only the beginning" back in 1998. Little did my young fresh mind foresee that the beginning was actually the end. Never since has there been anything hoisted to the realm of brilliance that was delivered in this game. I'm so grateful I had this growing up in part because now that I'm getting older I realize that even If I try hard enough to push the "nostalgia factor" aside, there is no denying that opportunity knocked but once and this would never come around again. I will end on a positive note in that I am happy to report the legacy of this series still lives on through fan missions over at TTLG 20 years later. So check them out if you have the time and interest because many of them are not to be missed.

I still have memories of the creepy undead enemies in this game, it was far creepier than Resident Evil in certain parts as the entire game was based upon stealth. It didn't matter how much holy water you had on you, fighting your way out wasn't a good option and the game didn't have to rely upon jump scares to heighten the peril. It made you feel almost like you were prey at certain points and that is far more scary than simply being in danger.
Without a doubt one of my favorite games of all time.

Well, this was awesome.
Here we have Constantine telling Garrett that the artifact's chaotic power has diminished and the only way to restore it is its organ namesake, giving Garrett the "honor" of having his eye do just that by Victoria's... whatever it is. It is revealed Constantine is The Trickster, Victoria is his plant demon servant, the Builders were their enemies, and he seeks to retake the world from humanity with his evil plants, leaving the helpless Garrett to be consumed by them. Not only is this one of the most interesting twists in a stealth game, which is saying a lot, considering other interesting twists in the genre, but The Trickster is one hell of a villain.
