: : : : Ive got into modmaking for thief 2

: : : What's thief 2 like?  Is it similar to Dink in game play, or is it one of those games you've got to memorize multiple letter combinations to play?

: : I assume he means Thief, The Dark Project. I've only got Thief 1. It's a 1st person action adventure, 3D. You have to steal things - go figure! I didn't like it that much, though, the NPC's are with strange angles, not very humanlike. I quit after the first assignment. Guess I'm no thief, huh?

: hmmmm..... Thanks for the review Bin ~but what about the controls?  I've tried a few other demo games of the "newer" sort, and find the complicated key combinations (well, complicated when compared to Dink I suppose) frustrating, and the 3d angles hard to see where you are and it tends to make me dizzy and want to barf tsk.

It's a while ago that I played it, but I do remember that I had also difficulties at first. I believe that it was this game that had this training area; best thing to do is to do that for as long as it takes you to get a grip on it. I think I remember something with climbing, jumping, a bow and that sort of things. And don't try to fight; the best thing to do is use stealth and stay in the dark - only attack from behind.

Hope that'll helps...
