Hmmm. Well, I liked that you could not meet all of the goals in the hard 
level of thief by playing on the easy level. There was loot you had to 
collect on the hard levels that just weren't *there* in the easy level. The 
door to the hall that led to the part of the castle with loot #3 was a blank 
wall on difficulty #1 or #2. You literally couldn't play the easy mode and 
see the whole level.

That doesn't seem like too much of a "cheap trick" to me. But then the AI 
wasn't really what you'd call stunning.

Plus, of course, there were things like not needing to get back out again 
once you got the loot, on the easy levels. And you had less health, and the 
bad guys had better hearing, and so on, on the hard levels, as expected.
