pity it's too late to add free jumping, prescripted jump points are so silly lol.

Oh noez, I didn't know about this, what did they do?

It's essentially Assasins Creed system. You hold down like run button and he'll jump on whatever.

I think anyone looking at it from old thief persective will be dissapointed. But it still might be a good-great game.

Oh. Not the best thing I could imagine. Not the worst, eithe, but I'd like scripts that take away from the player its total freedom of action to be used only when strictly necessary for the plot, not in quite common actions like jumps, where they make sense only to show fancy stunts at the expense of gameplay...

Yeah I agree with you on this. When the best solution is the way it was.

The other problem is that  context sensitive isn't so bad if it's done correctly (IE anything you should be able to jump on, on or climb, the game allows you to jump on or climb). But a lot of times it's implemented poorly where there's a lot of things you think you should be able to jump/climb on and you can't.
