Could Garrett be just a pawn in a larger game?
As one of the first big titles coming out in 2014, it’s no surprise to see another trailer for Thief arrive on our doorsteps. This time we’re being introduced to the secretive Queen of Beggars as she narrates the woe of The City. It’s a grubby place, seemingly infested with disease and squalor but there’s still plenty of loot to be stolen.
It’s not the first time we’ve seen snippets of the Queen — she was shown in the trailer that debuted during the VGX — but here she seems like she may have bigger plans for Garrett. After that VGX trailer, Josh wasn’t too impressed with the look of the game, which is understandable. I’m hoping the moddable UI will let me make the game as challenging as I’d want it to be and that The City feels fleshed out with enough detail and character to make it worth spending time there.
