Yeah, saw that yesterday. I thought about mentioning it here except that
it is more a commentary on the way that author plays Thief than a fair
commentary on the game itself.

You have never experienced a guard/creature saying, after you have stolen
something, saying "oh no! somebody stole it! Wonder who did that!? - Oh
well..." then going about his business as usual without investigating
furter? Or, after having put out a torch "Who put out that light!? oh
well", then not investigating this either?

How do you do that?

I remove all the guards and other witnesses before taking any loot. I
thought this was SOP? Disable guards, hide bodies, then take loot, then
search for that last dang bit of hidden loot.

Yeah, the "clearcut" approach. Quite utilitarian, certainly.

However, once I got done playing the original T1/T2/TG missions through
a couple times, I began to find it much more interesting to disturb as
little as possible. I feel like I'm getting away with much more by
making things disappear, whilst leaving no other sign of having been there.

I'm not into ghosting, though. Not that masochistic. 8)
