It's strictly 25 years, but the first demos of Dark Camelot, the precursor to Thief, go back to 1995, and the Dark Engine and Dromed must have been essentially in place then. Thar's soon to be close to 30 years, and I find that a little sobering

Many of us started as teenagers or young adults and are now probably sporting dad-bod :)
Hoping for people like Nightdive will continue to do remake. I haven’t got a chance to play the SS remake but seeing the streamers playing it and the positive reception the game garnered is heart warming to hear. More people get to enjoy LGS legacy!

I was 28 when TDP came out. Glad I'm still alive and 83% coherent. :p

Happy Thief Anniversary Digi! I'm well. Estrogen has done wonders for my mental health. :)
If you'd like a hit of nostalgia, I just posted this over in the Black Parade thread:

Known issues:
- Due to the complexity of the missions, there can be cases where some NPCs might get stuck walking against walls. There is unfortunately not much that can be done about this.While working on Mission X, I used the Dromed command to display pathfinding cells, and used this visualization to make numerous minute adjustments that reduced the number of cells and formed more orderly patterns, chiefly by aligning object boundaries. I did this in order to make the pathfinding database build less likely to crash, but it had the side benefit of helping the NPCs avoid getting stuck on walls. It's an immensely labor-intensive process, so I don't suggest actually doing it, but you might be happy to hear there's a solution.

Also. For the younguns here. Trimfect and Digi co-created the first ever FM, Gathering at the Bar, in order to demonstrate to LGS that fans could handle Dromed. I believe the idea to petition LGS was Trimfect's, but the FM itself was a shared effort. Trimfect handled the gameplay, Digi the architecture.
Everyone here owes her a thank you. :cheeky:

Estrogen? What do you need estrogen for?
Curious to see how this community changes in the next 5 years, if there are any big updates like NewDark coming or if we hit our peak and now it's a slow death... who knows!

Alchemy.
Also, you didn't thank Digi.

I really hope a new FM editor comes out so that it's much easier to handle complex geometry and build breathtaking, immersive levels

I am... I'm sorry I exposed you to attack, Dana.
