AWKWARD ZOMBIE

i just beat this game so this comic is perfect timing
NOW DO ONE ABOUT THE ORIGINAL

Yet another reminder to me that even the original had better stealth mechanics and nothing with ever rival Thief 2 in the area.

Shades = Douche Ex Machina.

Have you played Thief 2 recently? I did, on the hardest difficulty, and I could still basically run up to any guard and klonk them over the head before they noticed me (so long as I wasn't on a ridiculously loud surface like metal or tiles), or if they (or even a group) did notice me, I could just drop a flash bomb and then klonk them all in turn while they were stunned. The third Thief was actually a lot more challenging in that way, once an enemy was fully alerted you couldn't knock them out in one hit no matter what, even if they were flashed.

That said, stealth in DX:HR is ridiculously easy once you have it figured out. Just make a noise (shoot a bit of ground with the silenced pistol, throw something, jump, etc) just within earshot of a single guard and none of his friends, wait around a corner for him to show up, knock him out, then repeat for every other guard in the level.

Comic theme.

Here's a tip tip, Katie. Alarm comics are out. This season's all about insta knockouts.

This comic is now

I love that Katie seems to intentionally use the same stock gradient for any form of shades.

I've watched that video clip Vrom posted like four times now and I still can't understand what he's saying.

Lurker away!

I loved Deus Ex, the pistol is horribly overpowered though. And I was chronically low on ammo. But BY GOD those shades are cool.
