So you're just bickering about a game that you haven't seen in action and
will never play? Have fun with that.
Just like a lot of people are. Why the f*** do I keep getting picked on??

Also, why is it that we're not allowed to give our opinion unless its "OMG NEW THIEF!!!!! YAY, MY LIFE IS COMPLETE I DON'T CARE HOW DIFFERENT IT IS"
Whenever any of us "on or over the fence" people say anything, we get slammed.

I haven't really seen anything to complain about yet, just as others haven't, and I get picked on too.
There is entertainment value though, if you view it all for what it is and don't take others' bias too seriously. :thumb:
Honestly, all opinions are equal... no matter what side of the fence we're on; or even if we're just floating in the middle.

It's happening more on the other forum...I'm just pissed off, tired, and still sick :(

Because you said it yourself just now? I'm equally amazed by the other numbnuts who are bickering about a game they will never have any contact with apart from stating how things were back in the golden days. The RPS article is the first real info, in my eyes at least, about how the game actually plays and there's people like you who have already decided that they won't have anything to do with the game (apart from using loads of time criticising it).

Some people are being hipsters, since the majority of the internet has wisely agreed that the game is shit, these people feel the need to do the opposite. Aggressively.
Several of them are likely being handed cash by Eidos to do a little astroturfing. This is pretty common practice in the industry these days.

YOU. ARE. RAD.
MissyK. I think what your opposition is saying is give it a chance. It's still far too early to declare it grand or bad yet, and as with all new games being aired out in the open during their early prerelease days, there's always some good news along with some bad. Something you like, and something you don't.
But whatever you do, don't be thiefintehdark. He acts all cool on here, but cries himself to sleep at night.

If only you knew how true that is. I constantly wish I'd never gotten into the industry and could look at games without the x-ray eyes of a dev. It ruins everything. :(

Ok, yeah. I did just say it. Touche.
But it's because we've been part of this community since the beginning, or some of us nearly at the beginning. We've played all the fm's, we were involved in Warren Spector's T3 stuff. We are the fan base. We (some of us) don't like what they did with 3, and we don't want that to happen again...unfortunately it is happening again, so we're being vocal and opposing it. We're letting EM know that we don't like what they're doing to a franchise we love.
We're not buying it because of several reasons, some of which I laid out above. If you can't see my post at eidos, I'll put them up here. I don't need to see gameplay when I've seen the bullet points from Game Informer, listened to a guy who actually did play it (and explains what he saw/played), and these have all the elements of games today that I don't like, and therefore I don't buy/play. Never touched an AC. Thought "ooh, it looks like Thief" till the SO played it and I saw how different it was. I CAN'T play games like these. Physically CAN'T.

Yes, I confess. I am a Thief hipster. I am currently swimming in the money I have received from Eidos, because they had the grand idea of hiring a random Finnish bloke on TTLG subforum.
