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!

I see people complain about it being too difficult or overwhelming, but I found that if you approach this FM as any other (Where you create a plan in your head, get most of the loot, build layout in your mind etc), you will not have fun here.

I started playing this like I would any big city mission, but quickly got overwhelmed, almost gave up...

Mefix    April 23, 2024, 5:22 p.m.

With an intriguing premise and a promise of infinite descent into the depths that keep going, with beautifully crafted underground city this FM is absolutely ruined by the ginormous factory section. You are forced through an infinite collection of identical rooms containing a piece of loot and sometimes a lever.
Great effort derailed by pursui...

This is a very hard mission, its not for the faint of heart and you absolutely need to play it. You may need a guide, or dive deep enough to read a LOT of readables, but in the end the experience is worth it.

There is a lot of love in the mission. The ambiance is one of the best of any FM out there, author knows how to be subtle. The design ...

Amazing setting and superb execution. The mission flows smoothly as butter with max loot being achievable by non-excessive poking around. The fresh additions such as deployable ropes, small bit of puzzle solving and clever traps add a refreshing rhythm.

Secret area is a great cinematic set piece with brilliant set building and effects. A lov...

There is so much love in this mission it goes off the charts. All the placements of objects, the rooms plans and loot, everything is meticulously placed.
Its a very rare breed of FM's that make a world that feels lived in, and this one nails it. It was made with a feel for line of sight, rewarding curiosity, perfect mix of scale that feels tig...

So clearly there has been an enormous amount of work put into this campaign. Its detailed and has a tone that is very promising. But why in lords name it went overboard with whimsical non-sensual progression and objectives.

The entire campaign suffers from Brilliant level design and scripting being plagued by bad game design decisions that a...

You can tell the author is in game dev or really needs to be. Iconic hubs are unique and full of details. The engine is put to the test with the scope of the main atrium at times. The attention to detail is sublime.
My small gripes are:
- Connections between hubs felt less detailed than the hubs themselves
- Occasional forced detour takes a l...

It would have taken real nerves of steel to pull off this alternative ending in the original Thief 2: The Metal Age, and for better or worse, would ended the series on a much higher note.
...With room to expand.

Original ending always bugged me by being empty, desolate and much easier than previous missions. The Builder's Paradise takes a de...

+ Huge room for exploration horizontal and vertical
+ Hilarious moments scattered throughout the roofscape
+ Solid 3 hours of content
+ Explores lore and future potential
+ Tons of secrets
+ Side-objectives are story driven and immersive

- Deadend/fake doors hinder immersion.
- City is more fun than the main objective area.
