Yes, exactly. This is the part that explains it.

Yeah, you can miss a lot of the plot if you run by it and don't read books. I kinda spoiled that this has to do with the Dark Project, but it is only required to find the book on Expert (I hope it still exists on lower difficulties, it could explain some things...).

Thief 4 looks terrible so far. Not sure if I even want to buy it.

Thief has a dense plot, it just is not really at the forefront. You are part of this world, but are only now getting important. Before you were a Thief picking pockets, now you have endangered the world. Good job! Dark Forces didn't really thrill me with its story, it felt rather simple. Destroy three factories. No twists or turns, no real complexity. I liked Dark Forces for its gameplay (last level, I still hate FMs and earlier missions). I am there for a reason, but that is pretty much all you need. Thief always gives you a reason for being somewhere, but also gives you so much more if you look around and find every book in the map.

Eh, it isn't undead. You are fighting pagans, the Trickster's army. Pretty much you will be meeting a bunch of new things (one of which is extremely powerful and is the thing that can kill a Hammer Haunt with little trouble). The combat actually I felt quite impressed with, I never understood what good melee combat felt like if this is terrible.

What I do will decide my fate? Is this KOTOR? Do I have a light and dark side path? If that is so, know that I will want to be evil! I just love causing mischef!

Is there stealth? I have been playing too much Thief lately...
