For a long time, I’m known about Thief: The Dark Project – even seen footage – but I’ve never played it.
Today, I finally played it. And you know what? I now understand why this is considered one of the greatest PC games of all time.
But I also can’t believe this was made by Looking Glass Studios, the same developers who brought us System Shock and Ultima Underworld. For such a short-lived company, what a track record!
I hope some day that someone will re-make this game much like they did with System Shock. As much as I like this game, the max resolution is 800x600, and I haven’t been able to find any mods to upscale it.
Still, this is definitely a classic, and it’s shocking that Thief has never been ported to consoles.
@atomicpoet yeah, I remember playing this back in the day. If you're looking for similar game play, check out Styx, it felt like a spiritual successor, although 3rd person
Here's a link to Tfix and NewDark which should get you resolution fixes. I'm pretty sure the GoG copy comes with New Dark standard if you don't want to mess around with modding. https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=134733
