LOL.

 

This reads like an Onion article.

 

I should probably mention that Yahoo News's Oddly Enough section is definitely not the most accurate source around. In fact I'd be downright skeptical of anything they post unless it's confirmed by other, independent sources (which don't draw from it, or from its sources).

My games | Public Service Announcement: TDM is not set in the Thief universe. The city in which it takes place is not the City from Thief. The player character is not called Garrett. Any person who contradicts these facts will be subjected to disapproving stares.

Ah, yes. In law school we read a few of these kinds of cases.

One woman in Virginia sued Satan for mentally tormenting her, and it went to trial.

The judge's opinion was freaking classic. He made sure to cite all of Satan's aliases, quoted Dante and Milton for reference, and then went on about the nature of the charges and the Devil's role in emotionally tormenting her and generally causing misery and evil in the world ... all hilariously deadpan. You could tell he was having fun doing it.

Then he said, while there might be a cause of action, unfortunately the court is unable to find jurisdiction over the Prince of Darkness. There is no known residence of Satan in this district, or this plane of existence for that matter. Nor has Satan been properly served. In light of these facts, we dismiss the case.

Classic.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

      Well, this is just sad...I was not able to play any Thief or TDM whatsoever, why? Too busy the past 2 months, this month I'm not as busy BUT it's also very heaty in my place.
      I can't play Thief when it's not at least 15c or lower, the game demands to be played when it's cold for...Well, may sound stupid but I'll just say it, for that "immersion".
      It's kinda like playing Quake during Summer, which unless it's the Summer Jam mod, I don't think it's as fun.

      The preliminary working titles for the missions in my now-in-development Partners in Crime series: 
      - Partners in Crime 1: A Mere Trinket
      - Partners in Crime 2: Beacon Burglary
      - Partners in Crime 3: In the Bleak Midwinter
      - Partners in Crime 4 (5 ?): Fishy Dealings
      - Partners in Crime 5 (4 ?): A Thief in the Night

      No title stealing, please.  In return, I promise to finish these. I do stress the preliminary part. Beyond the broad strokes storyline, plot, objectives, briefings and the (currently built) layouts of these FMs, I haven't fully decided about every single detail yet, including the exact order of the missions (4 and 5 might switch places, with the story adjusted accordingly). I want the overall plot to be plotted out a bit in advance and not suffer too much from inserting prequels later. I also prefer to let my FM building fill out part of the details naturally.

      Currently working on the second FM, and once I do enough work on the current prototype, I'll work on the first one, until I get that one released. Then complete the second one, get that one ready for release (hopefully) a few months later, and so on. I want most of the early missions to be fairly small and confined, and get a bit bigger as I grow more confident in my FM making skills.

      Though there is an overarching storyline to this series, the missions themselves are mostly episodic in nature. They factor into the character development of the two main characters I'll have in the series, but it's the kind of continuity where the mission's own plot and story wouldn't depend on it.
