But I what pissed me off in the trailer was how many parts they kept showing Garrett in third person from the cutscenes and then it goes back to the boring first person arms hovering, its just a big tease for third person fans...not even a damn option to toggle between the two.
If it was third person, or atleast had the option i would definitely be interested, but i dont want to play a game were i feel like i am a hovering camera with arms straight forward like a zombie hovering on bottom of the screen throughout the game, its annoying.

I like the atmosphere and setting of Thief, but first person stealth always puts me off.
I remember reading somewhere that the very beginning of this game, you start out in third person briefly, but then its first person view to the end of the game, a bummer.
Games like Thief and say Elder Scrolls, has these tiny item picks up and such that needs upclose camera and cursor, unlike in third person were its pretty simple and static with a glowing hint you just go close and press a button to pick up.
Atleast thats how i see it.
But like I said, a toggle button to swap between the two would be fine to me. Third person for your typical run around, cover...etc. and first person to pick up stuff or locate hidden stuff upclose.
I rather see my entire character move around, go into cover, know when i am in shadows, rotate the camera to see more of what i need to see...etc.
But Thief is first person so its not for me, I am getting really tired of this perspective as of late so I guess I will just look another place.
I just thought it was a shame that they couldnt do a camera view toggle and improve it from previous Thief games.
Well, whatever floats your boat.
Its kind of like how third person wouldnt work in third person...imagine playing say for example Vanquish in first person lol
Like I said, i do like the atmosphere and art, its just a shame its in first person.
When I played Dishonored which was almost to mid-end and then i looked at how Thief was, i saw some similairities here and there, so I knew if Dishonored's first person stealth part didnt do much to me, Thief would be the same.
Visually quite weak too, with truly awful facial animation. Even by last gen standards, this doesn't look good.
