Deus Ex and Thief Plans
[Aug 27, 2004, 9:24 pm ET] – Share – Viewing Comments

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.

I went through the entire Thief III game TWICE, and never used third-person once.

Thief was way way way before Splinter Cell. Thief defined the "stealth game genre."

Thief III was alright. With the exception of the crappy engine and its limitations, I think it followed the spirit of the first 2.

I wasn't saying that Thief 3 was a ripoff of Splinter Cell, I was saying that a "modern" Thief 4 would be a ripoff of Splinter Cell.
