In regards to Thief 4, I dont believe Garretts circle has been closed with TDS. If anything it has only opened the doors further.
If you compare the beginning of TDP (T1) and the end of TDS (T3), you will know what I mean when I say that the circle is complete. Sure, we could take that circle out for another spin and it could even be fun, but where would the innovation be in that?

It depends on what you expect from a game. To me, usually the story is secondary. If I want good stories, I read books. I expect good gameplay and an atmoshperic gameworld. So to me, it doesn't really matter, what the story is about, as long as the gameplay is sound.

Garrett has passed his knowlegde to a little child ( I think it was a girl). So That girl must play the role of Garrett now.

Lol, "Master of Evil"...? I guess that depends on your definition of "evil."
I agree that the story has come full-circle, but since when has that stopped us, the fans, from just makin shit up? :cheeky:

I agree to the extent that Gameplay has to be spot on but thats no reason why a good story should come secondary. I think that the accumilation of story and gameplay should be exemplary, Just like the Thief series :thumb:

I think Thief 4 could start off with the training for the girl from TDS. Maybe garett wouldn't play such an active role there anymore, but then again, such a campaing, could also get involved into plots between the Hammerites, Keepers and Pagans, which he could get involved with involuntarily while he wants to train the girl.
Sounds like a plan but I would prefer it if Garrett was the central role I.e Intro cutscenes could show Garrett training the girl while he adds commentary.
Then the first couple of missions could be the girls solo field jobs where she becomes dominated by an evil, Keeper spirit locked up in glyphs, a Hammerite priest with a powerfull spell, a pagan god or becomes involved in a Mechanist splinter group - a few examples. and so the story shifts to Garrett where he has to find out what has happend to his apprentice while doing what he does best in order to fund his quest.
I also believe there should be a guest star apperance (or more) from Zaya, T2X Shadows of the metal age.
