A TF2 promo for the game was just added in the latest TF2 update:

Seems like they are trying to get money from yet another audience. And as a TF2 fan myself, im not falling for it.

Over dramatic much? :rolleyes:

 

I mean I wished he voiced the game too but c'mon haha

 

Also how do you know that he didn't turn the role down himself? maybe he doesn't want to voice Garrett.. people change a lot in 10 years. We probably wont ever know for sure the real reason (it certainly wasnt that motion capture bullshit excuse they gave) but yeah

This is from the TTGL forums, where Stephen Russell personally replied to the fans.

 

Well Taffers, I just checked my e-mail and sure enough, Mr. Russell had responded to my (our) posts on the W.H.A.T. FB page. Here goes:

 

Dear Dia,

 

Thanks so much for getting in touch and for letting me know about all the posts at TTLG and the petition. I've been aware of some of this but, nevertheless, I am truly overwhelmed and astonished by the appreciation so many people have shown. I have been meaning to write something on the forum to thank all those who have taken the time to post and I hope to get to that later today. The fact that people all over the world have responded so positively to the work I was fortunate enough to be able to do means the world to me. Creating Garrett's voice (and Benny and Karras) and working closely with the incredibly talented and encouraging audio team at Looking Glass, particularly those geniuses Eric Brosius and Kemal Amarasingham, was one of the highlights of my life and I'm extremely grateful to them for the opportunity. I'm also more grateful than I can ever express that so many fans responded so enthusiastically over the years and continue to do so even now. I hope you do get a chance to visit WHAT this Summer and that you get to see one of the productions. I think you'll like what you see.

 

If I could ask a favor of a stranger, I would really appreciate it if you would not share this email address. Maybe it's the lingering Garrett in me, but I've always preferred to keep a low profile.

 

Thanks a million, Dia, and all best wishes to you.

 

 

Stephen Russell

 

 

My day is complete. Just wish I could sign that petition again. And again.

Thats just him showing appreciation to his fans, he doesn't mention anything positive or negative about the situation. So we still don't know the real reason, if anything actually he is talking about other productions he is in so possibly he just doesn't want to voice Garrett anymore. Unless we get a real answer from SR or EM we obviously wont know

The light gem is from Thief 1 and 2 as well, but it's definitely a concept that could be adapted to TDM.

 

Actually I like TDM's better. It doesn't have that yellow "you're in full light!" indicator and lets you learn on your own.

"once I leave, I can't go back here". I really hope that the game doesn't have many points of no return within levels.

 

I've read more than one review that says it does.

      Stumbled upon a documentary on Enki Bilal, he is one of the most influential comic book artists of my adolescence. English auto-subtitles is rubbish, so you might need to brush up on your French

      Today I did a bit of an experiment! I wanted to see if I could get a dark radiant map into garry's mod, the quickest and dirtiest and not-workiest method is "OBJ2VMF" which converts .obj models into VMF files for hammer to then compile, the way its supposed to work is that you input a 6 sided cube and it turns it into a 6 brush room (not exactly ideal for this since that's not how TDM maps work, this honestly would have been a better idea with any thief game from 1 to the one from 2014 since they all work like that) so what ended up happening was that for every brush there was 6 brushes would be ontop of that almost inflating everything in the map like a balloon, map scale was also an issue that I couldn't fine-tune easily either so the scale is way off ontop of everything being inflated making the space inside the map very tiny! anyways heres the result of that and it looks almost nothing like footloose (plus I did add a bunch of random props in gmod for funsies and better visibility since the process involved replacing all the textures with dev ones that look very flat when in full-bright)
