Do we really need a Thief reboot?
Anyone that has played the old games knows how much fun Thief games can be, but the old graphics can be a bit difficult for all of us spoiled new graphics lovers. So here it is, a Thief reboot that promises the same things but now everything looks so much better! Which is nice, but what does that say about the game itself?
I´ve mentioned before that graphics aren´t the most important thing in a game for me, sure it´s nice when things look good but that´s not the main reason to buy a game for me. But there is no denying how good this Thief game looks, the environment is dark and creepy which makes you want to stick to the shadows even more. There is even a creepy level where things look to be a bit haunted, so that´s definately something I´m excited about! The characters look good and I do like the detail they´ve put into that, it sure makes it pleasant to look at character that don´t all look the same.
So how do you play Thief? Well not like an idiot, because if you decide to run around and try to rush through levels then you´re not going to last long in this game. It´s about planning your next move and some good timing, if that´s not your thing then Thief is probably not a game for you. But if you enjoy sneaking through levels, thinking before you act, then you might have a lot of fun with Thief. Having that Mirror´s Edge free running and your bag of skills and tricks, you might just make it through this game without making too many mistakes. Of course you´ll find puzzles that will make your head hurt and a lot of secret doors to use to your advantage.
I guess we don´t really need a Thief reboot but it´s sure nice that there is one, if things are done good then I don´t really care about that! This game looks good, plays nice and probably has some challenges for you to beat. It´s perfect for someone who is trying to escape from all the first person shooter supremacy of the last couple of months and who isn´t looking forward to Titanfall. Of course you can be a fan of both types of games, but Thief will really make you slow down if you compare it to a game like Titanfall. I think even players that aren´t familiar with the Thief games have a nice introduction to it in this game, it´s not a perfect game but it looks good and it´s fun to play when you know what you´re doing!
