Thief Reboot Is “More Nuanced” Than Dishonored, Says Eidos Montreal

The forthcoming reboot of seminal stealth series Thief has been widely likened to recent blockbuster hit Dishonored, with everything from its plague-ridden steampunk setting to the ability to complete the game without killing a single person inviting close comparison.

But Thief’s lead level designer has said that their game will be much “more nuanced” than Dishonored.

It will be an action game designed for 14 year olds.

Ezz20134034d ago

so you will enjoy it then :P

TopDudeMan4035d ago

Well, I'd imagine dishonored was somewhat influenced by the original thief games.

Roccetarius4034d ago

That's not hard to imagine, since they helped design Thief.

Chuk54035d ago

I thought dioshonered's stealth system was inconsistent

deep_fried_bum_cake4035d ago

What I disliked was that around 80% of the time you were sneaking around in broad daylight.

I can understand the guards not spotting you if it's night but if they can't see the guy pressed up against a wall during the daytime then they need to get some glasses.

Summons754034d ago

Everything in dishonored was inconsistent, the ai was completely stupid too. Theif>>>>>>& gt;>>>>>>> >>>>>>dishono red

A lot of dudes my age or younger like making comparisons to Dishonored, but the Fact is, Dishonored had stealth elements, but the game was better suited for action.

Thief is the other Way around, at least from what I've played. Stealth is like the PRIMARY style of play, and you would do everything you could NOT to get caught.

If anything Dishonored takes influence from Thief.

Roccetarius4034d ago

I always avoided combat as much as possible. It was much more smooth to stealth kill, instead of running in guns blazing.

They attempted to do a middle ground with action and stealth, but ultimately i went pro stealth.

kevnb4034d ago

I just killed everyone is dishonored.

An update from Eidos Montréal

Crafting emotions since 2007.

OtterX83d ago

The Embracer Group brings the Embrace of Death, once again.

staticall82d ago

Yeah, they should be renamed to Embarrassment Group at this point. Bought every studio they could lay their hands on just to fire people from them, close them or cancel their games.

ROCKY2882d ago

100 % The CEO is a PIG and it showcases how Embarrassment Group has always been a sham of a company
within the game industry !

Eonjay82d ago

Seems like the most turnover is being generated by companies making acquisitions and cuts.

Abnor_Mal82d ago

Ahhhh a man of culture, Futurama is the best.

thorstein82d ago

It's like they don't know their behinds from their elbows.

UPS just signed all their drivers to a huge contract.

In order to afford the contract, UPS is laying off management.

That's how all of this should work. Lay off management. That's how a business can be more "efficient."

God this hurts, I love Eidos Montreal. They make great games.

Si-Fly82d ago

They’ve not closed the studio.

VincentVanBro82d ago

I know, but they laid off 97 employees and canceled my most anticipated release from their studio.

Xenial82d ago

Shouldn't laugh because of the situation. But that did make me lol.

Psychonaut8582d ago

Bro f$&k Embracer. How do companies not even understand basic concepts like “don’t count your chickens before they hatch”? And now all these peoples lives are upended because of it.

KwietStorm_BLM82d ago

Fkn trash. They had no business buying up all those studios with house money. I been waiting so long for the next Deus Ex. All these large scale consolidations are bleeding out the industry one at a time.

CantThinkOfAUsername82d ago

They were banking on Saudi money. When the Saudi Government backed down everything fell apart.
