@@memes_the_dna_of_the_soul5487 Amid Evil is fully out And honestly their stuff in progress (with the unfortunate exception of Gloomwood) is so good, I don't even mind. They take their time to make sure stuff comes out right, if not quickly
The original Petty Thief series is how I was first introduced to you Civvie11. Thief is the reason I still absolute love stealth games and the reason I'll still try ghost every game that gives you the option. Still by far my favourite game of all time. Memories man, memories.
This was the Civvie series that got me into Thief, and until today I am still playing fan missions, while gleefully waiting for the full version of Gloomwood.
@@louthinator It's a "stealth shooter", it is more like Splinter Cell than Thief imo, but atmosphere feels like Thief what with Victoria era designs and stuff.
The dumbwaiter part in the first mission confirms that Garrett is an ancestor of System Shock's Hacker: both have absurd arm reach to grab and search (but not for lockpicking).
Civvie is easily my favorite part of TH-cam. Just wish I could have more. Still watching old episodes over and over for years. They never get old. Keep it up.
I have to say, when I get home from work in the morning, I sometimes like to see Pro Doom while eating breakfast. Not that it will help to put me to sleep, but rather help put me in to a coma of content and happiness that only his deadpan delivery and witty analysis can deliver.
Thief 1 & 2 were some of the first games I ever experienced and damn did they leave an impression. Absolute masterworks, even if those last few missons are uh, *cough* 'imperfect'... So glad to see this series continued!
Very much appreciate seeing more Thief. Honestly didnt expect it for a while since the original series wasn't super popular but as a life long Thief fan I am stoked to see it back. Time to rewatch the whole Petty Thief series again.
A new Thief series?! A this time of the world, in this part of the Internet - localized entirely within my feed? The Woodsie lord smiles upon us all this day!
Ah yes, the *nightmare siren* level. They really outdid themselves again with sound design and music, the first two Thief games in general hold up incredibly well. I played them for the first time a year ago and was just blown away. A faithful remaster or actually good sequel would be very welcome.
I haven't even watched the video yet, and I already know you're talking about the cop-shop level. I've used that for years as an amazing example of using sound to mess with the player.
I could recommend to try out the Dark Mod. Lots of community made content, game feels pretty smooth and authentic (expect lockpicking, updated with proper mechanic). Have to fish for the good scenarios but you can find hidden gems if you browse through the maps.
I rather liked Thief: Deadly Shadows, I think it has a good atmosphere but also some camp factor due to the ragdoll effects and some of the voice acting. Some of the added mechanics were cool (such as wall climbing) and the "open-world" hub. It also sports one of the spookiest levels in a (generally) non-spooky game (Shalebridge Cradle).
@@-chrgrpeasant4274 I keep meaning to do that, actually. A twitch streamer I watch does the occasional taffer stream with Dark Mod, and some of the stuff he's found is legit impressive.
Petty Thief was one of my favorite series of yours. It displayed a lot of creativity and input from you and I’m incredibly happy to come home from a 10 hour work day to see this.
Shipping... and Receiving is one of the best missions in the whole series. Though I never got why the guards in this industrial environment look even more medieval than Lord Bafford's henchmen.
The original steal 'em up. Garrett's characterization is so refreshing compared to a lot of newer characters. He doesn't steal out of some moral high ground or convoluted reasoning, the dude just needs to pay rent!
@@ianperiquet5141 In fact Garrett expresses a lot of dry wit about it and isn't just being like "lmao the things we do for rent." The fact he took the first job knowing he'd get a favor out of it solely for his own gain along with all the potential loot involved says a lot about his character instead of just being like "It's my first day a-thiefing! Look how zany and relatable I am to you, audience!"
Honestly the "don't knock anyone out" objective made Framed one of my favorites, it's really tense and cool because of it. Also nobody tell Civvie he could have just jumped down the well to get past the guard in the control room under the precinct
These are my favorite videos on TH-cam. Excellent work. Such fond memories of Benny and the Gang. Also, that invisibility potion must have been placed specifically to get past that guard. Seems cheap but, hey, what are you gonna do? Ghost it? Nah. Cheap mechanics require cheap tricks. Good on ya.
The fact that there's a secret compartment connected to hitting the bull's eye on the archery range doesn't speak well for the guard's shooting ability.
I respect Civvies ability to just upload whatever he feels like. I know if I were doing this as a fulltime gig I'd just upload whatever was going to get me the most views, which would ultimately cause me to hate doing it after awhile lmao.
I really wish thief 2 would get a Ion Fury treatment, make a new episode using thief 2 engine. I'd love to see this done for a bunch of older games like this. I'd drop 30$ to play Thief 2.5
Already done: Thief 2X: Shadows of the Metal Age. There are other fan campaigns, of course, but that one's probably closest to a proper sequel (not much shorter then Metal Age, has briefiengs, cinematics, voice acting, new tools).

Yes! My favourite game of all time. I was hoping you'd make a Petty Thief series for it. Can't recommend it enough to others. There are still things that this game does with sound, stealth and atmosphere, that no other game does as well.
@@KeksimusMaximus You don't need to shame people for enjoying a game. Civvie has had high praise for it as well. But it's my favourite because no other stealth game has had the same type and depth of stealth, sound, atmosphere and just general gameplay as this game. The bigger question is how have no games taken things like Thief's sound system and improved upon it.
So glad to see someone else who considers the storytelling in this game to be GOAT. Lots of people prefer the first game but it isn't as matured, and the third game has some truly exceptional levels, but isn't cohesive outside of them. Metal Age, for me, has always been the pinnacle not of just Thief, but of immersive character and story work in videogames in general. You're a champ Civvie.
Been eagerly looking forward to the return of Petty Thief for a while now. I really needed more Civvie playing Thief in my life 14:21 I don’t know what I meant by that either. That’s probably the mead talking. I always drink on duty
Civvie, like a true chad, got me into a great many games. Thief was one of them. Stealth games have always been a favorite of mine, like retro/boomer shooters and RPGS. When I played thief, though, I went above and beyond. I went beyond Ghost. I became the wind. No knockouts. No turning off lights. No weird arrows sticking to the wall. I closed every door and chest I opened. If someone detected me, I reloaded the save. And on top of that, I went 100% loot collection, too. And god damn, it was fun. The Thieve's Guild in TG1 took an entire day to do, though, but I did it. Not using all your tools also really saves on loot spending, too, which means that sadly Garret's landlord stole even more from him.
So excited to see you come back to this series. You and Mandalore got me interested in the Thief series and now I get to see you sneak around to defeat Droopy.
Petty Thief is back baby. I absolutely love the thief trilogy. Just before the first Petty Thief i started my own Thief Trilogy retrospective and have since completed all 3 games all on expert. Can't wait for more from you Civvie!
Seriously Civvie, these thief videos are some of my absolute favorites you have ever done that is in no way respective of how much time I spent beating the hell out of these absolute classic games. Muah *Chef's Kiss* If it helps, I have recommended your channel to any friend of mine who was willing to listen and a few that weren't.
The Petty Thief series actually introduced me to Civvie a few years ago, because I was going through an immersive sim phase and after beating Deus Ex 1 and 2, I was hungry for more content. Now his channel is one of my absolute favourites. Can't wait to see where this goes.
Thanks for getting me into the Thief games. Took me a while, but DAMN those games are good! I even played both on expert from the start and they're absolutely amazing.
Holy shit it's back. I know Civvie lamented the lack of interest in the original series, but frankly, fuck you if you find these games boring. I'm down for a full run-through of all these games, including hopefully the utter despair as he plays through Thi4f :P
@Shenaldrac @Sam Cooper Awww, poor babies. Imagine reading this and thinking its a personal attack, rather than a generalised joke. Also, taking this comment as a "reason" to not watch this series just shows you weren't gonna watch it anyway, making your "point" moot. And also proves how much of a child you really are. Here's an idea for the both of you: grow the fuck up, go outside, see the sun, and come back to the internet when you can handle it maturely. Have a pleasant day. :)
@@Logan-xo9uc Also to be clear, I _like_ the Petty Thief videos. I'll never play these games, but it's cool seeing Civvie play them and experiencing the story that way. It's just this guy's attitude I have a problem with.
3:58 Didn't know you can use flares to set things on fire. I always thought their purpose is to provide a source of light. You know, so that you don't have to rely on night vision. But unfortunately, it seems that a lot of players ignore flares entirely, perhaps opting to increase the game's brightness instead. It's something that occurred to me when I noticed that fan missions often don't feature any flares, even when they require the player to explore some really dark areas.
Well tbf you are a thief, you live in the shadow and the darkness is your friend, there is no reason to use a source of light to betray your best friend if your eyes are already familiar with the dark
@@zaholykrusedar1459 Yes, the idea does seem counterintuitive, but the game is not always about sneaking. Often times you're just exploring with no enemies nearby (or just no conscious ones), and Garrett has no supernatural senses. Darkness is not so much a friend, as it is a temporary ally.
@@Mrityugata A temporary ally that help ya about 80% of the gameplay And yeah i get what you mean, but people are lazy when it comes to this, and nobody know what may happen if suddenly someone ambush ya
I am extremely glad you took on Thief again. Viewers be damned, they wouldn't know a fun game if it hit them in the face. It's not your fault they choose to ignore two absolutely fantastic games!
The black and white clips at 1:30 are from the silent film "Metropolis". Its a Weimar Era German film about labor and capital, industry is portrayed as a monster/god who human lives are sacrificed to.
You should check out "The Dark Mod" if you havent already. Its based round the theif games. Started as a doom3 mod, but is fully standalone now, free and opensource. Runs on all platforms as well
@@alexmelik4030 I just started replaying it the other night, finished a couple missions so far. Not sure of the past with it being taken down, but it's still up now
12:00 I remember loving that melody so much I learned how to play it in my guitar. Looking forward to the best NPC dialogue ever created, when you ride the thieves' highway.
The half of civvies audience that doesn’t watch petty thief is the same people who wear punisher shirts with their punisher chain wallet and denim vest
Everyone who played this when it first came out knows how amazing it was back then. It holds up incredibly well in ways that most games from 22 years ago simply do not.
After just playing Thief for the first time, and watching the first Petty Thief series just a few days ago, I feel like I've manifested this. Thank you so much Civvie!!!!
'Can a guy nap around here?'
'ABSOLUTELY!'

It's not a popular series because Theif isn't Doom or a bad game.

If you wonder why TH-cam is doomed, that's a clear indicator.

So glad to see someone else who considers the storytelling in this game to be GOAT. Lots of people prefer the first game but it isn't as matured, and the third game has some truly exceptional levels, but isn't cohesive outside of them. Metal Age, for me, has always been the pinnacle not of just Thief, but of immersive character and story work in videogames in general. You're a champ Civvie.
Honestly I loved the petty theif series I thought it was one of the best series you did civvie. I'm excited for this.
Been eagerly looking forward to the return of Petty Thief for a while now. I really needed more Civvie playing Thief in my life
14:21 I don’t know what I meant by that either. That’s probably the mead talking. I always drink on duty
Bennie isn't the only one who says that. Which makes me think that people just... try not to think about ghosts that very much real in that world.
Y'all really should go watch Civie's first Petty Thief series, it's one of his more fun series. I'm so happy to see it return!
Civvie, like a true chad, got me into a great many games. Thief was one of them. Stealth games have always been a favorite of mine, like retro/boomer shooters and RPGS. When I played thief, though, I went above and beyond. I went beyond Ghost. I became the wind. No knockouts. No turning off lights. No weird arrows sticking to the wall. I closed every door and chest I opened. If someone detected me, I reloaded the save. And on top of that, I went 100% loot collection, too. And god damn, it was fun. The Thieve's Guild in TG1 took an entire day to do, though, but I did it. Not using all your tools also really saves on loot spending, too, which means that sadly Garret's landlord stole even more from him.
Amazing, Mandalore and Civvie dropping vids on the same day! Come on Ross Scott make it a perfect 3!
Perfect 4, if we can also count SsethTzeentach.
It really is a shame that the Thief vids don't get more juice, I love this series so much and you cover it in such a genuinely hilarious way.
Mad respect for whoever does the subtitles for these videos.
Thank you. 👍
So excited to see you come back to this series. You and Mandalore got me interested in the Thief series and now I get to see you sneak around to defeat Droopy.
Awwww hell yeah, best series on TH-cam is back.
Petty Thief is back baby. I absolutely love the thief trilogy. Just before the first Petty Thief i started my own Thief Trilogy retrospective and have since completed all 3 games all on expert. Can't wait for more from you Civvie!
Somewhat perfect timing actually, now that Gloomwoods' in early access. Just finished that and the hype for Thief-likes seems to be spreading around.
Thief really has a charm that I've struggled to see emulated in other games of its genre (other than maybe Gloomwood)
My entire day is made, no more need for "petty thief 2 when Civvie?"
Dude, your theif series has always been some of my fav rewatches, please see this series to completion my man, youre easily the best here
MY FAVORITE SERIES RETURNS
Thanks Civvie, I know the last one didn't get the views, but I'm glad you're continuing.
"Arrest the landlords they're the REAL thieves!"
Man...I felt that...
Guards' comments were one of the things that made this series great, they are hilarious, the sound design overall was so immersive.
As a DOOM Eternal fanboy, i'm feeling properly cucked and i love it. Keep up the content sludge, civvie.
I enjoyed the little Gloomwood cameo at the end. Love that game, wish it was done already!
Yay Thief 2! Glad to see it. Let's show those Taffers what thieving is about.
This series is SO GOOD. I'm happy you picked it back up!
for the record, your thief series is one of my favorites on the subject, by all means, keep blue balling doom fans
Doom Eternal Fans*
They're a whole different breed from your standard Doom player.
Seriously Civvie, these thief videos are some of my absolute favorites you have ever done that is in no way respective of how much time I spent beating the hell out of these absolute classic games. Muah *Chef's Kiss*
If it helps, I have recommended your channel to any friend of mine who was willing to listen and a few that weren't.
I’m excited to see where this story goes.
The Petty Thief series actually introduced me to Civvie a few years ago, because I was going through an immersive sim phase and after beating Deus Ex 1 and 2, I was hungry for more content. Now his channel is one of my absolute favourites. Can't wait to see where this goes.
Yes, this starts again AND there's a spiritual successor in Gloomwood, in early access! Thief is a brilliant game and series.
Thanks for getting me into the Thief games. Took me a while, but DAMN those games are good! I even played both on expert from the start and they're absolutely amazing.
Civves sure uploading a lot more.
Honestly thought he would never get to metal age. Then again why wouldn't he.
I'm a Doom Eternal fanboy and if being blueballed means we get videos on the best Thief then I like it 😏
Kinky
Loved the first Petty thief serie, bought Thief one and two after that. Thanks Civvie !
Glad this series came back thief is one my favorite game trilogies and the 2014 "reboot" is actually a guilty pleasure of mine
Not gonna lie, I missed these, probably my favorite series of yours!
Holy shit it's back.
I know Civvie lamented the lack of interest in the original series, but frankly, fuck you if you find these games boring. I'm down for a full run-through of all these games, including hopefully the utter despair as he plays through Thi4f :P
"Fuck you if you don't like the things I like." Wow what a mature reasonable attitude.
@@Shenaldrac exactly, makes me care about this series even less.
@Shenaldrac @Sam Cooper
Awww, poor babies. Imagine reading this and thinking its a personal attack, rather than a generalised joke.
Also, taking this comment as a "reason" to not watch this series just shows you weren't gonna watch it anyway, making your "point" moot. And also proves how much of a child you really are.
Here's an idea for the both of you: grow the fuck up, go outside, see the sun, and come back to the internet when you can handle it maturely.
Have a pleasant day. :)
@@Shenaldrac thats stealth game fanboys for you.
@@Logan-xo9uc Also to be clear, I _like_ the Petty Thief videos. I'll never play these games, but it's cool seeing Civvie play them and experiencing the story that way. It's just this guy's attitude I have a problem with.
you would think Garret's new eye _would_ have night vision, y'know, BECAUSE ITS ALWAYS SO FUCKING DARK OUT
3:58 Didn't know you can use flares to set things on fire. I always thought their purpose is to provide a source of light. You know, so that you don't have to rely on night vision. But unfortunately, it seems that a lot of players ignore flares entirely, perhaps opting to increase the game's brightness instead. It's something that occurred to me when I noticed that fan missions often don't feature any flares, even when they require the player to explore some really dark areas.
Well tbf you are a thief, you live in the shadow and the darkness is your friend, there is no reason to use a source of light to betray your best friend if your eyes are already familiar with the dark
@@zaholykrusedar1459 Yes, the idea does seem counterintuitive, but the game is not always about sneaking. Often times you're just exploring with no enemies nearby (or just no conscious ones), and Garrett has no supernatural senses. Darkness is not so much a friend, as it is a temporary ally.
@@Mrityugata A temporary ally that help ya about 80% of the gameplay
And yeah i get what you mean, but people are lazy when it comes to this, and nobody know what may happen if suddenly someone ambush ya
your theif series is one of my favorite series of videos on your channel, I'm glad you make videos like this despite them getting lower views
I am extremely glad you took on Thief again. Viewers be damned, they wouldn't know a fun game if it hit them in the face. It's not your fault they choose to ignore two absolutely fantastic games!
And you crying about it only motivates people to care about this series even less.
@@samcooper2474 Ok Sam, you don't like the franchise. We get it.
The black and white clips at 1:30 are from the silent film "Metropolis". Its a Weimar Era German film about labor and capital, industry is portrayed as a monster/god who human lives are sacrificed to.
You should check out "The Dark Mod" if you havent already. Its based round the theif games. Started as a doom3 mod, but is fully standalone now, free and opensource. Runs on all platforms as well
It's still there? I thought it has been taken down...
@@alexmelik4030 I just started replaying it the other night, finished a couple missions so far. Not sure of the past with it being taken down, but it's still up now
Even if they don't perform as well as your other videos, your Petty Thief videos are still great, and I always watch every single one of them.
we're now one step away from a Deus Ex video
Or System Shock 2, I think Civvie might like that game more than the 1st one, helps that it's also on some form of the Dark Engines
@@ArcturusOTE I think a video on the first game would also be extremely interesting
your other thief videos are probably my favourites, think i've rewatched them 5 times
Honestly, the Landlord is the main villain of this game series. Good you can rob him in the last game...repeatedly
12:00 I remember loving that melody so much I learned how to play it in my guitar.
Looking forward to the best NPC dialogue ever created, when you ride the thieves' highway.
It's sad to know that your Thief series doesn't get many views. I'm glad you're doing the second game, finally.
Holy crapperdoodle! This is great! Thanks for making my day Civ! I hope you continue this at least through Thief III
Thanks again brother!
The half of civvies audience that doesn’t watch petty thief is the same people who wear punisher shirts with their punisher chain wallet and denim vest
You're first Thief video is how I got introduced to your channel. Fan for life now Civvie. Thank's for this one!
Gotta say, love the intro music. Fits well to Thief.
Everyone who played this when it first came out knows how amazing it was back then. It holds up incredibly well in ways that most games from 22 years ago simply do not.
Petty Thief is how i found your channel, even though it's not the most popular series, still keep up the good work!
Finally! Just rewatched the Thief 1 videos today and wondered where are the next.
Good job civvie!!
After just playing Thief for the first time, and watching the first Petty Thief series just a few days ago, I feel like I've manifested this. Thank you so much Civvie!!!!
I find myself rewatching your old series' of classic games.
I am a happy human being to have found your channel.
Dont know why these dont get views. Pretty fun series.
