I somehow don't trust you.

One of the finest of the original missions.

And, yes, I understand your objections about the spike in difficulty. It's also something most FM authors don't understand. That many of their missions are MUCH more difficult than the original missions, thus hard for casual players.

Is that really what's "behind those doors", or the FM authors imagination what could be behind those doors?

By the way, as we're at it: Thanks for hosting this site (I think you are the creator?). It's a really nice site, and helped me a lot figuring out which FM to play next.

If you want to stick with how it's done in the original Thief games, then it's indeed rather a difference in loot count, additional objectives, no kill objectives, sometimes even no knockout objectives, rather than raising the overall difficulty with the difficulty settings. But, I think I prefer it that way anyway. I always play on Expert, and, the original missions are all absolutely doable, as are other fan missions.

I can only repeat myself: The problem is the general difficulty with t...
