The devs didn't title this thread, and @datiswous said they're attempting to mislead people by using Russell's name and a retro style to make it resemble Thief, which is cynical. I grew up on forums like I'm sure anyone who likes a game from '98 did. I actually left the Discord immediately after joining it because it was more off-topic doom-posting than anything relevant to the mod. I thought the forums might be better, but it's mostly just grown men yelling at clouds and telling strangers how mature they are, and a few brave souls actually developing anything. Depressing place, I'll just stick to enjoying new missions every 6 months without an account.

I don't think they're trying to make anyone believe it's 1800s Thief: the trailer is mostly blowing zombies up and away with an explosive Sharps and a coach gun. I appreciate that this is a forum for a Thief fan game, but from what little I've read it seems like you guys are very cynical here. Games should be celebrated in their own right, and not how they match up with a 25 y/o game because they share a VA. I played it all the way through thanks to this post and had a great time: it's part Resident Evil, part Deus Ex and part Hunt Showdown, all of which are fantastic. I'd have liked more enemy and weapon variety, but it was a very fun 8 hours.

These are the bee's knees!
