Please can someone post the objectives since they are not visible for me?
Or just tell me the fifth one from the begining as it is the last one I have yet to do?
It is a little boring to go again everywere just to find something that I do not even know what is it.
Savar you are awsome !!! :thumb: :thumb:
I played all of your missions and I should say you are a Master Builder! My favorites are Hotel and this one (but you have a fixation with crates not to mention that you give poor Garrett so few gear and then throw him into the lion's mouth :cheeky:)
Thank you again for your fine work, I hope the next one will be out soon :)

My impression: this mission is overall very good, except the execution. The exercises in precision box stacking and polishing every ceiling like the thing that goes bump in the night were a little too frustrating. The architecture purposely made to render climbing gloves next to useless (at least, for any meaningful task) was quite detracting from fun, too.
Having to cycle through trash to find real loot was pretty nasty, too. Still, better than missions 1-2 in the series where you needed some REALLY assinine acrobatics to essentially even START the missions... Not everyone is too good at these, so I understand why so many people dropped Keeper/Hotel to trash bin after half an hour's worth exercise in frustration.

Overall, I'd give it a 4/10 -- exactly because of these additional difficulties imposed. If it was easier to spot and get into places at least on easier difficulties, it'd be a solid 8. Why only 8? Because having the secret room *EVERYONE* searches for behind a transparent door that just doesn't open is a little too absurd. It would have been found long ago, if not by ramming the door off the hinges, then (assuming it's a super-duper-forcefield door that is resistant to everything elder Keepers can throw at it) by making a plan and thorough search of adjacent locations.

And now I am wondering if anyone has a lootlist for the mission, as I found only 98% (9850). And I'll give the first mission another try, but frankly, I am pretty sure I'll just give up on it after spending another half an hour trying to climb those beams from the place purposefully made so as to make that as difficult as possible (thanks to that banner and the barrel being destructible even in updated version).

Despite all spoilers, I still cannot find the weapon room. In the scribe room I climbed over the bookshelf and dropped down to a room with a balcony. What next?

This mission is not enjoyable, I rarely look for walkthroughs for any game but this mission is so frustrating. I feel like I'm in an endless maze. So many hidden buttons, levers, not shining loot. I'm clicking the right mouse button like crazy to see if there is something hidden that I cannot see, and to test for lootable object. If that is not enough then guess what - there are so little arrows and there are stupid restrictions that totally ruin the gameplay. Yes, I know that its supposed to be a stealthy game but sometimes I want to kill and drink my enemies' blood.

It seems that I'm stupid so I would like someone kind enough to make a complete walkthrough video and to upload it on youtube. That will make me happy. Otherwise, I will delete this mission and I will never play it again.

I have never been so desperate and frustrated when playing Thief. The only other mission that made me crazy was the massimilianogoi's labyrinth.

@Stingm, Thank you! I found it today. I suppose that yesterday I was a little tired and nervous and I've missed it.

The mission is good indeed and that's why I was angry that I'm stuck. Because it should be a waste not to finish it. :)
