Thief pilfers some needed improvements but forgets to steal a personality (review)

Check out our Reviews Vault for past game reviews.

I’ve just completed publisher Square Enix and developer Eidos Montreal’s Thief reboot, and I’m sad. Not because it was too short — it took me about 10 hours to sneak through the main story. No, I’m sad because this will be the first experience many players have with Thief, and they won’t know just how great this 16-year-old franchise is.
