People were freaking out about FPGAs, microcontrollers, etc. that were in some of these drones. Fact is most (all?) of it was older & EOL things that you can find on Ali Express and other sites for peanuts.

Apparently the Thief IP was part of this deal. I would love to see a new game in the Thief franchise that played like the first three games and not a hand-holding, quicktime event mess like the reboot.
