I loved the thief series...i almost worship Looking Glass studios. But I'm afraid they are going to completely Fuck with my favorite series, like they always do when they go back to old IPs. If they put role playing game stats, parkour, or fancy combat in the game, I'll lose it. I'm so afraid that they will make it an assassins Creed game instead ofa thief game. For some reason, developers love ruining stealth games. Look at the new Hitman or the new Splinter Cell games. Not saying they aren't good games but they change them too much. Why not just start a new series instead of ruining an old one?

It's good to see the old classics get some love, but for something's sake keep the spirit that we loved alive.

Fingers crossed.

Eidos does do good work, and they have thrown enough resources into it. So hopefully it will be as kick ass as the older ones.
