i think they made it impossible themselves to be happy with any new 
thief game.  the ending was ridiculous!  the outcome of the main 
storyline meant we would never have our thief back (as we knew him). 
providing 3rd person view (mistake!!) as an option destroyed the feeling 
of being there, and gave garett an identity outside of the player.  we 
never really had a face before outside of shadows and some artwork.  and 
garrett turned out to be one *uuuugly* dude!
