Skacky to mój ulubiony twórca misji - to autor, który doskonale czuje ducha pierwszej odsłony serii Thief, potrafi tworzyć zajmujące misje miejskie i nie ogranicza się z architekturą. Ponadto jego styl z każdą kolejną misją się rozwija, czego jest przykładem to jego ostatnie (póki co) wspaniałe d...

This small (1MU Contest ) mission is a very nice distraction while you're taking a break off something bigger or just need a quick and relatively easy mission to play that won't eat up a lot of time. This one took me around 50 minutes. You end up in a limited area around a small Mechanist faci...

The mission in question takes us through an ordeal in a haunted snowy castle in the mountains. Our objective is to grab a cursed book from the place for the Keepers, (optionally) find out what happened to members of the previous expedition to this place (some nice DnD references!), grab some loot...

I can't help, but there is something about these keyhunt missions I just can't take - and Cabot is (only from the keyhunt aspect though) one of the least tolerable I've ever played. The amount of locked doors that can be opened only by using a specific key you have to find first is (I can't find...

I often wonder why Deadly Shadows fan missions are usually... not really great. Actually, average at best. While a whole topic could be dedicated for discussing the different reasons, I only brought this up to put my 7/10 rating in context. Is this a good mission compared to fan missions created...

topic about The Hobbit
author:   Matt | Jan. 11, 2022, 12:03 a.m.
A great atmosphere can save a mission with bad gameplay, and great gameplay can save a mission with dull atmosphere. I believe 'The Hobbit' has unfortunately none of those - even though the concept was certainly interesting, and I suspect the creator was perhaps going for a surreal level design l...

This mission has everything a short bit sized mission needs. I just wish that visually it would keep up with the engine more. Too many flat textures, clunky geometry and not enough contrast and variety. However, still a great mission, good for a newcomer!

In its core, I think the concept was interesting. I always appreciate when fan mission creators think outside the box and come up with a non-stealth based mission. Too bad, the creator here had either a questionable concept about how to design an adventure game, or just didn't have enough time/mo...

As one who loved Oblivion back in their childhood, I really admire the effort that went into this mission - though it also has to be said that levels in Oblivion were... not so great (especially on a Thief scale), so as soon as you put down your nostalgia glasses, it becomes clear that this is a...

So clearly there has been an enormous amount of work put into this campaign. Its detailed and has a tone that is very promising. But why in lords name it went overboard with whimsical non sensual stuff. It could have been the greatest campaign ever if not for a few things: - Restore the Classic ...

I don't like key hunt missions. I don't like when previously non-existent enemies appear when you trigger something. While this mission have all those two aspects above...... I can't help, but admire it anyway - since this is an expertly crafted mission. Varied areas, interesting enemies, lots...

You can tell the author is in game dev or really needs to be. Iconic hubs are unique and full of details. The engine is put to the test with the scope of the main atrium at times. The attention to detail is sublime. My small gripes are: - Connections between hubs felt less detailed than the hub...

"Deadeye" is not story-heavy. All you should know is that there is small gang of street thugs and their leader is the one you should either kill or take for ransom. The mission is essentially small (you can complete it in 12-25 min.) but twisted corridor with occasional branches, and obstacles - ...

This big fan-made campaign deserves exactly those words I put into the title - I rarely played the fan-mission that evoked such mixed, contradicting feelings as this one. We are play for the Reuben (not the Reuben-leader of Thieves' Guild, but other, younger), who lives not in the City (yet) but...
