    "Why would you design a trap with a way to avoid it?"
    For the same reason you don't clog every square inch of your own home with traps. The designers also need to be able to navigate these spaces, and so need failsafes or work-arounds that won't kill _them._

      But also, if it's a tomb or something, the tomb designers and builders probably want to be able to navigate around. Tomb keepers need to be able to go in every few years to reset/repair traps and clear out bodies. Priests might want to leave offerings at the deceased's tomb, so they need workarounds. And who knows, maybe the dead person will be raised (through one mechanism or another) at some distant point in the future.

  • @GmodPlusWoW
    @GmodPlusWoW 4 года назад +169

    *1:* I dunno, burricks are kinda cute, even if they can be a nuisance.
    *2:* Pro Hit The Road when, Civvie?
    *3:* While Constantine's manor might be somewhat more abstract, I remember it being better than the Thieves Guild mission. Mainly 'cause it's a more stylish kind of abstract, as opposed to the sewers which, in reality, would get clogged up pretty quick since good sewers are designed more like a grid than a wandering maze.
    *4:* Speaking of nonsensical video game sewers, the sewer level in Strife would probably give Civvie an aneurysm and add +200 to the Sewer Count. Not just because of the maze-like design and samey appearance. Not just because of the dread-inducing hopelessness in the music that plays. Those aren't even the worst parts. The worst part... is that it's mostly hurt floors, even though you probably have a hazard suit by that point. Seriously, I think it made Ross Scott just a little more crazy. I'm not as sensitive to sewer levels as Ross or Civvie, but I feel like it could definitely have been done better.

    • @GepardenK
      @GepardenK 4 года назад +18

      on *3*: Constantine's Mansion is a shining beacon of level design brilliance. One of the big highlight of not just Thief but gaming in general. To even mention it in the same sentence as the clusterfuck that is Thieves Guild should be considered heresy. Constantine's Mansion has pace, flow, atmosphere and style; Thieves guild has none of those.

    • @masterexploder9668
      @masterexploder9668 4 года назад +16

      Constantine's mansion is one of the best examples of how can you use level building alone to tell a story. It all starts like a standard deal for Garrett/player. Old rich guy who keeps lots of fancy trinkets at home, nothing unusual. Then as thief goes deeper into the mansion, it starts to look like a stuff of nightmares created by a really warped mind. We start to feel uneasy and get completely confused trying to navigate through this madhouse. It's brilliant and it's also a setup for another twist on the way.

It has been working well for us (statistics wise), we have very low fatality rates (under 2000 as I type this).
      Those death figures will rise, but lock down is slowing the spreading of CV19 drastically for the time being. We also have many test kits (enough to test in mass) and even hotels like the one my brother in law works at, have been dedicated as CV19 testing stations (with no hotel guests obviously) and medical staff. The hotels are being compensated financially by government, so it is a fair deal for the hotels who cant have guests with CV19 running rampant and uncontrolled through the population anyway.

    You haven't played Thief until you tried it with an Aureal 3D soundcard from back in the day. It was a TOTALLY different game listening to guard patrols with fully 3D sound in your headphones. The zombie levels were terrifying listening to those shuffles in the dark. Of course, this was back when you were still scarred at the thought of having to hide in an FPS for a change, and hadn't yet figured out how to cheese the enemies.
    Reposting my A3D comment from the Messiah video:
    "Aural 3D is a strange instance of one area of computing technology that's actually REGRESSED as time went on. A3D was a technology that simulated positional 3D audio, and it worked FANTASTICALLY. With just a regular set of stereo headphones, it could simulate horizontal AND vertical sound positions.
    But then those bastards at Creative Labs (makers of Sound Blaster) brought them up in a frivolous patent lawsuit. Aureal eventually won, but the legal costs involved in the suit burned up their money and they were forced to sell out to Creative, who shitcanned the A3D tech to mainstream their inferior EAX soundcards. Positional audio technology STILL hasn't caught up to where it was back in 2000."

    If you get EAX emulation working (the thing that makes sound come from different directions so you can pinpoint exactly where it came from when wearing headphones) and have a good monitor that can display dark colors well, playing Thief 1 and 2 is one of the most intense stealth game experiences you will ever have.

      Both super easy. Majority of people have IPS monitors, and even cheap TN monitors do good darks, only failing when looking from an angle.
      Getting OpenAL working is as simple as dragging and dropping a single file. No special sound card needed.

      Unfortunately EAX has nothing to do with positional audio, common misconception. EAX stands for environmental audio extensions. In thief it was used for adding realistic reverb in rooms of various sizes, but was dependant on mappers properly using it.

    Man, it's cool that Civvie is doing Thief videos now. I've yet to beat Thief: Gold myself so it's a race against the clock to finish it before watching Civvie's next video on it.
    Bonehoard is pretty cool. Who said that a fantasy thief must keep robbing nothing but mansions and other lively city buildings or that only British chicks can raid tombs? Burricks are cute, and fucking Civvie, you bastard, stop killing them! I learned that you can blackjack them only after finishing the mission but I just hopped away from them, they are cute and mostly harmless with their noxious breath. Their tunnels got a bit confusing at one point where I couldn't figure out the purpose of one part of it right before the section of tombs you have to go to. Zombies are pretty spooky. At first I tried clearing out the place from them but when I destroyed like 5 of them and saw another 5 shambling my way I got an impression that there must be a spawner for them somewhere and they are endless so I hopped away again. A great mission.
    Assassins might be the shortest mission in the whole game but it's cool too. Back to the usual thief business, robbing mansions. But with a bit of a "plot twist"? I like how mission objectives change during it. Ramirez might understand the cuteness of burricks since he keeps two as pets, but he has one or two heads mounted on the wall as props in one of the rooms, so he is still an asshole, all that crimelord business aside. Fire Poker can actually be accessed by flipping a hidden switch in a fireplace in the most lavish bedroom, which is logical, where else would you keep your prized fire poker?
    Thieves' Guild is bad, it's okay for completing once but I am not sure about replaying it. Thankfully, my memory is good enough to not get lost in the place, a couple stumbles here and there don't count, but it takes forever even if you know where you're going. Didn't know about the secret door in the casino. I found it, but through the other side, because I didn't find the secret switch. Which made the mission a bit better, because you see, when you sneak through the non-secret backdoor in the casino, you immediately find two dudes conversing and telling you that the vase is in the safe at Donald's but the safe key is at Reuben's, that cuts backtracking a lot. The way the loot is sprinkled through the mission is really bad, makes you feel the thieves are poor or something.
    Civvie's complaint about hidden safes with mission objectives isn't totally right, there IS a note in the mansion that says that the key is behind a secret panel in the bedroom. Now, the fucking bracelet though. Maybe I missed a note or a part of a conversation somewhere, but I had to quickly look that thing up on the Internet. Which, thankfully, I did before trying to find it myself and before exiting Reuben's domain. I don't usually use walkthroughs but I felt I had to do it that time, that's how bad the mission is. And the bracelet costs way less than all other special objective loot and less than plenty of regular items! Why does Garrett need it?
    Still there are some good parts here and there, it's also funny how almost everyone can recognize you. By the way, I bet ghosters hate it. Well, the next mission is way better. Can't wait for Civvie to get to Thief 3, I love it.
