Sometimes I forget how fun it is to put together a nice, simple, straightforward part of a series. They go fast, and sometimes hard, and then also sometimes soft, like Thief, and I've honestly forgotten whatever metaphor I was reaching for with this. 

Not much to say here because I think this is one of the more joke-heavy Thief videos and it is all the better for it. Im-sim (and, arguable im-sim Postal 2) videos are always greatly helped by the game doing weird things to put an unexpected roadblock to progress (except crashing.) 

Got some Doom content coming up next - No Rest For The Living, which I said I'd make forever ago but got sidetracked by other things. This time I'm actually going to do it and since I've recorded all the footage already I'd feel like an absolute idiot for wasting it.

Sneaksy breeksy, -Civvie

Or if you want one of those fancy colored names that everyone gets now if they want. The credits in the video are usually a couple of days behind the actual patron list so if you don't see your name, it will be in the next upload.

Ooh, always like dem Thief episodes!

maskedhobo

Love the thief episodes.

YukoValis

Ah more fingersmith. good stuff.

Ilkka Karppinen

Ah, you can never go wrong with a little Garrett. 👍 Nearing the endgame, I wonder if Karras’ personal quest for genocide might prompt a visit from a certain rodent... There’s an allegory to be made with certain real-world events there somewhere, I’m sure. Cough.

Rad. Watching this while working on AMD GPU drivers. Thanks Dad!

Bryan David

Best Thief video yet! What's that nasty metal song during your full assault? It kicks ass.

civvie11

Ethan Meixsell - "Thor's Hammer" Some royalty free music I picked out for the montage.

You cannot hide from Chex Quest forever Civvie. It will haunt your dreams, make your nightmares real. It’s coming Civvie and there is nothing to stop it.

M-A Richard

Ah the lost city again! Sure didnt have enough of that god awful level in thief 1!

civvie11

I already can’t hide from it in my comments section

Thanks for the vid! Random suggestion of the month: Dark Arena on GBA. Also been replaying Gunman Chronicles lately and while the shotgun is as fun as I remember, my nostalgia clearly made me remember the writing as better than it was. Still a fun romp through dino infested jungles, robot infested factories, and gunning down space desperados. The fire mode system is something I wish I saw in more games, if less clunky.

John Labor

I was almost certain the “Pirate Theme Park” fantasy was a Monkey Island 2 ending joke.

Samuel Albert Mell

Thanks for another entertaining video, Civvie. Have you ever considered playing and doing videos on other boomer-era games, like Red Alert/Command and Conquer?

Nathaniel Dolynchuk

I would also LOVE to see some C&C and/or Red Alert content!

Adam Williams

Hell yes, sneaksy time with my boy Garrett.

John Labor

Ah one of my more memorable disappointments in an “ending”.

Citizen Cain, PhD

Great episode Civvie! Love the TV Puppet Pals reference.

Dennis Carradin

Great episode! I absolutely love this series but what was the music starting at 15:37? It's sounds way too familiar

Garrett rarely interacts with friendly in-game NPCs. I believe Lotus is the first one since Cutty 1.75 games earlier. Cavador's patrol script isn't triggered until you read the papyrus. There's an engine exploit that can be used to separate Cavador from his bodyguards for ghosting purposes. I've never done it because I'm not insane. "Hey Civvie, did you know about the bonus obj - " Thank you! Only 1 or at max 2 more OG Petty Thiefs :(. I would like to officially request Petty Thief 2X! You've covered mods before.

FunkEngine

Don't worry Civvie, you can still feel like an absolute idiot even if you don't waste the footage...

Snowflake3114

Bro, that blunt weapon fight in the cavern next to the gate had me rolling bad 😂😂😂

Hammer of Thor by Ethan Meixsell. I asked this on the discord. The harmony and solo are the best parts and you rarely hear them. It's the theme song for Hydraulic Press Channel, is where I heard it before.

Dennis Carradin

Thanks man! I think its just because its non copyright, I just hear it a lot throughout youtube

Joshua Sears

I know these maybe don't get as many views as some of the other videos, but I love your Petty Thief series.
