7. The Thief games
When a guard says things like ”What was that? Sounded like a… a sound of some kind” or ”Someday, I’m not gonna be a guard anymore. I’m gonna be a … manor lord! And I’m gonna hire lots of guards, put ‘em on night patrol, then sneak up behind ‘em and say, ‘Did you hear that?’ Watch ‘em jump” or ”I’m gonna give you until 3 to come out. 1…2…3… … Crap” or best of all, ”I can’t take this anymore… this is absolutely ridiculous, everytime I turn around there’s incompetence, incompetence, and every act I see performed except by myself… well I can’t do it by myself”, you know the game’s damn funny. I don’t care if no other character in Thief is as funny as they’re supposed to be (though they are)- as long as future Thief games have awesome guard quotes, I’ll be happy. Watch that video above if you’re still not getting my drift, you camel mannered tunic wearing mollycoddle.
