Show of the Week: Thief and the Case of Jane's Missing Jewels

Show of the Week turns to Thief, the classic sneak-and-steal series reboot in which Garrett returns to steal everything that isn't nailed down in a gloomy, pseudo-Victorian city. What is a master thief? Where did Jane's jewels go? Thief director Nicolas Cantin has (some of) the answers.

Tune in next week, when Mike tries to stealthily escape from the police station with hilarious consequences.

Forced action scenes in a stealth game are just as bad as forced stealth scenes in a action game. If your games good you don't need them.

[MegaSantaclaude]

Kinda disturbing that Jane had jewels to begin with. :P

[FearDeFreak]

Why do stealth games need to have those god damn action sequences?! The only way for me to except them is if earlier during the mission I personally fuck up and get detected, then it makes sense.

I hate when you're playing a stealth game, being super careful and sneaking everywhere, then a cutscene start and all of the sudden your character gets detected in some manner, so now you need to run a linear path to finish the mission. It's just stupid and annoying.

Janes pick pocketing herself. Good job on putting Mike in jail. You deserve a medal.

I knew the bit was coming… still did it well. 😂

[GameGlider]

Garret's dream isn't to be a master thief, it's to be a hand model!

[KaiSaeren]

i dont understand why so many people disliked this, i mean sure, the story wasnt all that great and you couldnt steal everything but its still really good imo

[GameGlider]

The look mike gives when Jane asks why XD

[SaganNotPagan]

Everyone likes a jeweled necklace, few like the pearl variety.

[muzboz]

Thank goodness for Dishonored 2, and Stephen Russell's inclusion there-in.

These Guys and Gal need their own half hour show on the XB1. Nah, lets make it an hour.

[VisyTheElf]

Jane was the thief to begin with, stealing things from herself to get others caught and thus clearing her own name to do it all over again

[Insanestreatco]

Jane looks really awesome with those jewels but I am starting to think that even Garret would'nt want those now that Jane sat on'em.

[tongey]

I think thief took Andy's little red book, I wonder what was in it

[bradywright]

holy crap mike's such a master thief he stole Jane's jewels and put it back in her pocket without her ever knowing. kinda.

[mousegsm]

How will Mike escape? Will Jane admit to framing him? Can Andy finally eat a snack? Next time on Outside Xbox!

[chumpzilla]

What could be sweeter than  to meet a cheater in a beta?

[kiwiO]

Where does Garret put all the things he stole, does he have a bottomless pocket or a hand held teleporter?

[leondelafonte]

You guys need to set your cameras' white balances right.
