Well, since they are going to perform important ritual they must ensure that everything is okay and (esp. after treason of Keepers Aramis and Alabastor) any possible threat (including those from Keepers) is to be eliminated. Therefore extreme security measures.

'Among the positive aspects of the middle of the mission is the good difficulty of stealth: there are many guards, and the author organized patrols well.'
For me it's a downside of the mission. That dummy right at the doors to the appartments building ( Flats or something like this, cant remember the name exactly) says it all. He just staying there and waiting exactly for some kind of master thief who have managed to squeze right through those double-triple patrols along every little corner...

You don't have to re-edit anything. I think this messaging can improve the way we see things and understand each others opinions and how we see things in many different ways. Let's go on and remember to keep taffing and keep Thief alive!!

@Lord Taffer: I think that the question of the AI comparison rather falls into the perception of the reader. I'm not anti-AI, by the way - so much so, that I even forgot that someone could be, and interpret that part completely offensively. I do feel like that the mission, while very well implemented, has this aspect of an "uncanny consciousness" if that makes sense. This is pretty much connected to how I found it very intriguing the way you went from your first mission to this one. The autho...

@trefoilknot: You mean what do I expect from posting a sarcastic comment targeting a - to word it politely - head scratching aspect of a review? I suspect that both of our questions are rethoric.

By the way, I actually adore quite a lot when someone goes for full enthusiasm towards an fm. If Mefix really loves Tolham and wants to support the author, then sure, cool - can get behind that. Unfortunately the review has cringe white knighting aspects trying to protect Tolham from... I'm not e...

Matt, I hear you, you have some good criticism in your review. Still, I must admit that I didn't like at all that sentence with AI comparison, felt like a low blow. I know no fan mission should be above the criticism, but to compare it as a work of an AI is rough. And, yes you had positive things to say too and I read the whole review and except that certain part I understand your points here. But exactly like Trefoilknot said, that kind of sarcasm is unpleasant really and tasteless. Thus, th...

Matt, in case you’re confused, most of the flak you’re getting is not really about your review, but rather your snarky comment.

You posted about how this mission was very unique. And then when someone else does the same thing, you sarcastically comment on it: “oh wow, it’s almost like a CITY MISSION!?!?! How wild and cray cray and unique.” (Paraphrase)

Honestly, how did you expect people to react to you being a condescending jerk?

What the hell are you talking about? Seriously.
Look man, I'm really sorry if you cannot sleep at night, because I said something about this mission you cannot process mentally (for whatever reasons I'm not even sure I wanna know). But going this deep into nonsene is not necessary. You are one click away from finding out I've rated more than 100 missions on the website and my ratings are usually positive. Not even mentioning how many times I've supported beginner authors first attempt in my ...

The very funny thing is I called the misson imaginative in the title of my review, and even said "the atmosphere is pretty unique". Strange, because if you read the AI "comparison" you had to read the rest of it as well.

Almost seems like saying anything, but borderline delusional level of praise about this mission is a total crime (regardless of how much stuff you praise at the same time). If it's because my final rating is not visible (yet), I gave the mission an '8' by the way, for it b...

The video isn't the only way to reach the rope, you can get to a balcony from the Notary building that'll bring you right up next to it.

Yeah, Matt is off mark on this one for sure. You know what you created and people recognize its uniqueness. If people cant see it yet, thats on them.

If you feel this was too hard for you, maybe try smaller city missions. Im sure if you play more than a few dozen missions you would start to recognize differences between vanilla expectations and when people try to do something bigger and more difficult.
What is obvious is that you didnt understand this one, which is sad, but maybe with some additional experiences in a few years you will, keep playing!

(See how dumb that sounded? Thats how you sound, relax and dont take someone's creativ...

I appreciate all the feedback and I won't stop building if someone compares my work as an AI work. I appreciate the critisism especially if it tells me what to improve in the future. I'm honestly glad there are people who enjoyed my FM! Keep on taffing everyone!
