As far as I know Garrett doesn't have supernatural powers in this THIEF either.
Tis' true sir, Garrett has no powers. The various potions give him certain abilities, speed, slow-fall, invisibility, health and also his mechanical eye in T2.
Wub!, Wub! (parkours) Wub!, Wub!

I wanted Thief style game. I did not want Thief with the Dishonored style "supernatural" powers. Dishonored was very good however. Dishonored Thief is what we are getting, sadly.
Not sure if you played the later thief games, but as the series went on there was more and more occult stuff going on.

You can also view other trailers, gameplay trailers from E3 that show continuous gameplay and you shall see the supernatural powers.Overon wrote on Oct 9, 2013, 17:35:

where did you see supernatural powers? i didn't see any magic in this clip. a few poofy stealing effects, but nothing i would call magical. funny considering how a previous poster was complaining about how this wasnt supernatural and mystical like the original.

PC Gamer article:
...a prompt appears telling me I can jump across. Jumping is now a context- sensitive action. “Jumping, bouncing up and down, kind of broke the immersion,” says Schmidt.
Free jumping is immersion breaking but popup text that says 'We allow you to jump here' is not? What planet are you from? Seems to sum up the design decisions.
Hahaha, that's definitely one of the bigger loads of shit I've read lately. Basically we were too lazy in level design and jumping would let the player break the shit out of our game, sorry!

The video was awesome (The new Garrett isn't THAT bad...) . What has me worried is that interview I read this morning.
can you say what you found was awesome by the vid? didn't look so great to me... at least it didn't look like the good 'ol Thief from back in the day.
Well as much as I love Thief and Thief 2 (even Thief 3 to a lesser extent) I'm okay with it not being exactly in the same vein. The huge dark city, the stealthy stealing of stuff that I find so goddammed addictive, and the overall mood look incredible. He is seen doing classic 'Thief' moves like using water arrows and such, so that was cool. It obviously doesn't guarantee a good game, but it was a very good trailer I thought.

I thought Deus Ex:HR was outstanding & I thought this was the same team doing this game, I guess i was wrong?

Read the hands on material people are talking about, they aren't really discussing the video content when they are expressing concern.

To me a lot of people want to rush to judgement on this game. To me it looked good, just as long at the main mission is still that same atmosphere, modern engine will be nice and if there are some scripted events, that they don't take away from the main game-play and at worse don't add much... I'm ok. There are somethings going on there that the original would of been better off having. I liked all 3 so far, believe it got better as it went along, we'll see if this is all that. Totally don't see the horribleness. Half way through 2 again now... we'll get to the Dark Mod once through all three again. Also played that other one that came out years ago that had MP, that was very good as well. The slowed down sneaking atmosphere is just aces.
