We forgot to share the latest screenshots of Thief released by Square Enix so here they are along with some artworks. If you want to work your french, we have a preview on the other syde. The game will be out in a month.
General feelings about the game (seeing as i don't read or understand french) any news on how long this is gpong to be? Hopefully something along the lines of dishonored.

Ghost_Deus mentioned an unsteady framerate (the PS4 build he played is some weeks old though).
Verticality is scripted but he didn't feel the level design was that limited as some other previewers said. More various paths towards the end of the chapters he played. Gameplay is good, a lot of things to explore and items to steal.
You can slide, seems weird for a stealth game but some might find it fun, you can look through locks, windows and walls' holes.
Many options, from HUD to specific difficulty.
Yeah, i keep seeing MAJOR stutter in footage i've seen but can't tell if it's the video or the game. I guess a mixture of the two cos it looks almost unplayable based on what i've seen, but surely that isn't the case?
Unplayable? Definitely not but if the framerate/stutter issues are not settled, it could be a deal-breaker for some players. The build wasn't really new but we are just a month away from the game's release.

Yeah, that's my worry. Looking at footage it is an almost CONSTANT judder. No way could i play it like that. Hopefully its smooth by release.
That image is why this game should have 3rd person option or should be in 3rd person view, the genre is best played that way.
I think its just to stupid seeing two floating hands and fingers moving infront you all the time, looks ridiculous.
The actual available memory is about 4GB, but that is still enough for open world. Just bad streaming tecnology I guess. Remember that this game was planned to be released only for previous generation consoles. It also looks out-dated compared to next gen titels.
It's actually closer to 6gig avaliable unified memory.
''It feels faster and fiercer, but also smaller, something that could appeal to more action-oriented players and which isn't likely to sit comfortably with fans of the old series.''
looks like a game i would pick up 2nd hand months down the line
nothings grabbing me specially the dated graphics, this is why i can not wait for everyone to ditch the last gen and just make games from scratch for the xbox one and ps4 atleast we will get some good looking cross platform games then.
i refuse to buy a game now that does not look or feel next/current gen
AC4 was really bad graphics wise, BUT i will say the new updated tombraider on the ps4 looks great, they seemed to have done a much better job putting it on the ps4 than the guys who did AC4
screen shots are starting to look pretty decent now.. how much they actually represent the game in motion via the various devices remains to be seen. Love to see some INTERESTING gameplay - challenging when viewing a stealth game I know.

no its not, there is just no excuse for a big game to not look stunning..non at all
if a game has good gameplay but dated graphics its a fail for me, if a game has good graphics but bad gameplay its a fail...they need both for me
There is far more to how a game looks than the various tech that renders it all out. Of course graphics are important, but it's far more crucial that the art & design fit with what ever engine & tech is being used & vice vera; that the tech is set up to represent the concepts as best it can.
This game might not be technically stunning or even close, but it looks pretty darn nice in these screens & videos to me. Clearly alot of people put alot of hard work in to achieving this.
You might not like the style or what ever, maybe that's kind of what you mean, but I just think to dismiss a game because you label it as having "dated" graphics is immensely shallow.

No idea about how long the game is.
