Thief 2: I have to stop the plans of a crazy person with a speech disorder with the help of the devil's wife.
I think this wins the thread. I'm tempted to steal this and post it as my FB status

Sorry, I had to say "devil's widow". After all, we killed the devil in Thief 1.

Some of you may find it strange, but when I first played Thief - DP, I was almost a kid. My English then was worse than my English today (if it's bad now, you can imagine what it was like then). And I wasn't into the fantasy genre. So yes: to me Constantine was the devil in disguise, the Hammerites were the church, and I had to help the church so I could kill the devil.

It was obviously inspired by the medieval Catholic church and its archetypal antithesis (GReen man of the Pagans, Devil to the Christians, Pan, etc). In Thief 2, the Mechanists appear to be based on extreme capitalist Evangelicalism, but this was never officially confirmed. Karras seems like a radical Martin Luther type

You have to learn how to see the world through his eyes.

Thief 1 : meet an interesting person, get them to kill themselves, save the world & steal some stuff
Thief 2 : meet an interesting person, get them to kill themselves, save the world & steal some stuff
Thief 3 : meet an interesting person, strip them of their powers so they're practically dead, save the world, steal some stuff
