Deus Ex and Thief Plans

A Rob Dyer Q&A on 1UP from earlier in the week (thanks Eurogamer.net) has word from the former Eidos president (who recently joined Crave as president and COO) on future plans for both the Thief series and the Deus Ex series:
We're going to try to get more of a consumer focus into our games. Deus Ex: Invisible War was a good game with solid reviews, but not enough people bought it. We'll fix that in the future. There definitely will be a Deus Ex 3. People want another Thief, too. We'll make that series more modern, though...the medieval thing's run its course. The coming year will bring some really new, innovative titles, plus comebacks from many brands gamers are already familiar with.

Holy crap. 0_o

I can't believe they'd move Thief to a different setting... Holy crap. Are they just trying to go the "no press is bad press" route and piss everyone off for attention?

Holy crap. Besides, I woudln't even consider Thief as medieval. It was totally steampunk with a great, unique twist, and that is why it stands out as a great world and game. If this moron thought it was "medieval" in the first place then he obviously needs to check himself. What a fucking moron... holy crap...
