That is what he viewed it as :p, not my opinion. CtJ is my least favorite due to the Coorespondence (the only place in the entire game that you are required to listen to a conversation to even know where to look, and then have to solve a puzzle you don't know needs solving) and the third floor (they should have sealed it off or something, I hunted up there for the Coorespondence and nearly got trapped if I didn't leap from the third floor balcony after stealing the masks that shoudn't have been there), plus the numerous jarring floating objects (I saw switches floating, beds in the ground, backwards chests, and other flaws I didn't even notice in other levels until I tore them apart looking for the smallest glitches).

Everyone does have their own preference. I am glad he gave props to the series, even saying it has the best level design. I just don't get how he can completely ignore the rope bug while criticizing stronger areas. Eh, everyone has their own opinion. I wonder if he was a JK review...

EDIT: Just saw you say he had one for Outcast. Yeah, that is my biggest gripe. The other stuff was more defending his statements as I feel some were wrongly focused (some inexperienced people view it the same way until you waste a lot of time on it). I can't even watch the video for Outcast because he would probably show the end boss in all his glory and then say "I am not going to go too deep into it" (the irony of that part in the Thief video).

In his defense he even says "THIS VIDEO CONTAINS SPOILERS -- YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!*…" for the JK videos. Thief he doesn't say that! Someone goes in watching it and sees a great amount of spoilers without even a warning!

At least one thing I do have to say... it is the vanilla game (or at least close to it, the main menu usually gives away the difference and he used the original menu). It is sad, but so many people have the whole NewDark thing that the original game isn't seen much these days. Watching other reviews I see NewDark and immediately get disgusted as the review should focus on the original game, not a fanmade patch. Sad, but due to the fact that Thief isn't very compatible on modern hardware most people resort to the "enhanced edition".
