The Dark Mod - Free Thief title

[Lucki]

I'm not sure if this has been brought up yet, but The Dark Mod just became a standalone game.

"After nine years of development, The Dark Mod is now a standalone game. Thief fans can now enjoy over 60 fan made missions which capture the essence of the Thief 1 / 2 games. Originally created as a reaction to Thief 3; with the upcoming release of Thief 4, many are comparing what was done here (a faithful extension of the old gameplay) to what Eidos has shown thus far. Can a little Doom 3 mod compete against a blockbuster AAA title? Should we even compare them?"

What? Almost everything Eidos has shown on Thief 4 has been a complete and utter butchery of the original gameplay.

Regardless, I have no doubt that this will actually be better than Thief 4. Thanks for sharing this, I hadn't heard about it until now.
