Aside from bugfixes, some spruced up levels (as well as a few major additions such as Little Big Land) and of course the new missions and the Mages replacing the craymen, Gold is basically identical to TDP.
@Ostriig- I guess my obsession with horror games/FMs kinda precedes me? ;) Nah, Song of the Caverns is definitely a straight up traditional mission, albeit rather large and I'm a sucker for the whole Victorian thing.

That too, but mostly the way you said it. I read THE FUCKING OPERA HOUSE the same way I'd say THE FUCKING BLOODSUCKER NEAR THE WILD TERRITORY ENTRANCE. I've got a bone to pick with that cocksucker.

Gold is definitely rarer and more expensive. TDP/TMA get released like every other Thursday but Gold is difficult to find. I got mine for $30, but you'd be hardpressed to find it that cheap nowadays.
I got my copy of Gold from a friend in Canada. He paid $5 CDN for it new and gave it to me. I only had TDP, TMA, TDS (and a pirated TG).

Oh fuck that guy. Fuck the one hanging out in the train tunnel in Garbage right by the Agroprom entrance, too.
But no, THE FUCKING OPERA HOUSE is basically the best Thief 1/G OM with the possible exception of Assassins. Hence my enthusiasm. ;)

Yeah, they are good, but Cragscleft is my fave.

Definitely silly to get pissed off about the mages in the Lost City, but the Dark Project version is certainly superior. The fact that there are no humans in it reinforces the feeling of isolation far more.

I will give you that.
I wonder if there's a way to swap them back out?

Should be pretty easy to just swap the .mis files. Of course, if you wanted to go all out, you could remove the extra talisman and objective from the mission and still have it in keeping with the other gold missions.

I know I've read somewhere that Thief Gold was how TDP was supposed to be. The TDP that exists was a cut-down version of TG, not the other way around. Primarily, they cut The Mages Towers and Song Of The Caverns (and Thieves Guild), moved an extra Talisman to both Undercover and The Lost City, and swapped Mages for Craymen. The proposed Thief 2 Gold, on the other hand, was going wedge four or five new missions into the existing T2 storyline.

I can confirm that the Mastertronic Complete Collection (which I now have in my hands for £9.97) includes the Thief Gold Version :)
Now if they have fixed (i doubt it) the dual proc issue then ill be happy!
