    Update: As of 2/18/2021, IO fixed the PC content transfer issue. Better late than never, though I maintain it shouldn’t have been an problem in the first place.
    HITMAN 3 provides another batch of quality assassinations to add onto Agent 47's extensive resume and your connection to the HITMAN server has been lost...

    My biggest gripe with the world of assassination trilogy is that IO ties all of your unlocks and gear to an online server. Also if you get disconnected from the server which happens pretty often for me I have to quit the entire mission and start over. Other than that they're the best games in the franchise imo

    Personally Berlin was my favorite for the atmosphere. It made me think of the Meat King’s Party from Hitman: Contracts mixed with a John Wick movie. The grimy, abandoned, unnerving location turned into a night club rave party (with some folks even walking around in masks) reminds me of that classic mission from Contracts. The whole thing of the agents hunting you down is really intense and added to the atmosphere really well.
    I think Chongqing was the most disappointing mission. The city environment was beautiful but it was underutilized and set aside for that shady laboratory and the high-tech underground facility.
    Carpathian Mountains wasn’t what I expected and was a bit too linear but still felt very gratifying. It was very satisfying to be able to just go nuts and let loose with assault rifles, shotguns, and SMGs. It was nice to have a mission where those are a viable option.

Learn something from Valve, accept that pirates will be pirates, and work on rewarding legit copies.

    • @q-tip4723

      There is one solution I can think of: if the game is detected as a pirated copy, 47 can't equip disguises and he's always in a hostile area no matter what. In addition, no alternative starting locations can be used or unlocked, you can only use the default load out, and the game always gives you a 1 star rating no matter how well you do.

    I had never played a Hitman game before Hitman 3 and only picked it up due to every other game that was set to come out getting delayed months out again. And, I loved it. I always assumed Hitman was just the usual action game with stealth mechanics in it as well. It is not often that I misread a game, and even less often I try and end up loving that game. Even less when it is a decades long running series that has a fanbase. I immediately went and bought and downloaded Hitman 1 and 2 into Hitman 3. Game is so much fun. And the replayability on these are high given how many different ways you can play a level and the open nature of how you can proceed to your assassinations in each level. Consider me a new fan of this series for sure. Awesome awesome game. Not sure if any of the previous games hit 60fps but the smoothness of 3, and 1 and 2 if you import them, plays really well especially in 4K. So much fun and would recommend to anyone looking for something to play right now. And you’re right, the murder mystery one was unexpected and a lot of fun as well. On one of my later playthroughs I set a personal goal of killing everyone in the house. I’m not a sociopath, you’re a sociopath. What.

      Hitman 2: Silent Assassin's Steam page has a screenshot of 47 violently gunning down someone and then Absolution plays like an action movie but is a stealth game. These can cinfuse people I imagine.

    • @Furymgs3
      @Furymgs3 Před rokem

      The very very first game in the series (Hitman: Codename 47) often ends up playing like the usual action game with stealth mechanics because it was a pretty novel concept that wasn't well thought out at the time, but the formula started to improve immediately from the second game onwards. If you don't mind somewhat dated graphics, you might want to consider picking up Blood Money, which introduced a lot of the more modern Hitman concepts to the series (most notably accidents, distractions and expanded environmental kills and interactions). That said, Hitman 2: Silent Assassin and Hitman: Contracts are excellent as well. But yeah, the very first game is skipable if gameplay is what you're looking for, unless you're interested in the lore and the origins of the series. Especially since Contracts is partly a remake of some of the best missions in Codename 47.

I wouldn’t expect that.
      I know it costs money to sustain servers, but don’t fucking do it in the first place, if it’s a problem.

Then right before I pull the trigger I notice it's on Xbox Game Pass on PC, full trilogy for free! If anyone was unaware and has an Xbox or gaming PC, go play it there, best way. Unfortunately you won't have access to DLC content, but considering how many countless hours of content are there between all 3 main games it's hard to complain.

    So far I've only played the first two missions (+tutorial) from hitman '16 (played them all in H2 of course) and it's already 20 hours. Judging by how much content it have (over 10 more levels at least + different mods that I didn't even play) I think I have enough content to wait untill the H3 release on steam, until then I'll enjoy what I have.
    So hey, thanks for getting me into the series!

    I too thought Lucas Grey's death was rushed, so I did some thinking. My conclusion? He's not dead. He fires a military-grade pistol straight at his head, from point blank range. The bullet would have gone straight through his head, and since it was straight up through his chin, it would've caused very little to no damage to the brain. And the damage it would've caused wouldn't be fatal. His other wounds from the CICADA officers obviously weren't even near any vitals, because he was able to run and even break an officers arm. And on average, it takes around three and a half hours to bleed to death, even from multiple gunshot wounds. This would've left plenty of time for hikers or townspeople to find him and nurse him back to health.
    In short: Lucas Grey faked his death to escape CICADA officers.

    • @courier6960
      @courier6960 Před rokem +5

      If you think a point blank shot from a military pistol that goes directly through your brain isn’t going to be lethal, you have never taken an anatomy or physics class in your life. Also 47 had the time to take his clothes, he certainly would have noticed if Grey was still alive.

    Dubai was the perfect intro.
    Dartmoor Hounds of the Baskerville hints are incredible, and the murder mystery was extremely fun.
    Berlin was spine-tingling. 47 at a complete loss. Panic, stress, anxiety all juxtaposed with the darkly euphoric underground techno scene. Insane.
    Chongqing carried depth and beautiful aesthetics.
    Mendoza felt climactic.

    My first thought when I saw the train level was "I can't wait to see what kind of Trans-Siberian Railway type missions we'll get later", like how we got with Hitman levels such as The Icon, Landslide, Snow Festival, etc. I think it'd be a really cool type of mission, kinda like how they made a murder mystery type event in one map, they could do a "Murder on the Orient Express" style one there.

      @breadbread4199 Před 3 lety +10

      Yeah Dartmoor feels almost more linear than Romania, just because after the first time the murder mistery is more annoying than anything and you're just checking off a to-do list. In berlin you have many targets, which, in my view, justifies the many many layers of the map. It gives you more experimentation and IO doesn't hold your hand with the story missions. It also features cool easter eggs like challenges for the florida man, the ufo exit, the talking hippo and many ways to kill your target, as most of them are roamers. It's the perfect hitman map, only this time, you actually have to use all the things you've learned from the first 2 games. Dartmoor is dull and boring, berlin is fresh and creative. That being said, that is only my opinion.

    I only decided to have a peek on Hitman franchise now, and that without knowing anything about it before, because of one Hitman vs Payday video uploaded just recently. This is why I think I'll stick to whatever I'm interested in currently and just look on the entries from other videos if I'm going to look into more of it and have better understanding of the games itself.
    As of the review itself, fair enough I guess. Sounds like it was the last entry anyway, so I'm unsure how to feel about that.

    This is one of my favorite Hitman games now with all 3 in the package. My favorite maps in the trilogy rn are Sapienza, Miami, and Dartmoor. It seems I have a pattern of the second map being my favorite. I love how Hitman III shook up the mechanics with Dartmoor and Berlin shaking it up the most. Berlin was kinda annoying on first play through but I loved the lack of mission stories and I felt that I could try something new each time. In Mendoza it was just kinda weird for me but the level was good. My favorite part of Mendoza was getting the sniper to kill Vidal. With the final level in the mountains getting Suit only was a pain in the ass because even though it says “Providence members are permissible targets” killing them counts as non target kills in regards to silent assasin

    Something that plagued Hitman 3 was an inventory limit of 200, that wasn't foreseen until the amount of inventory reach that number. IOI had since patched it, but there was a time where you only had access to 200 inventory items, and carrying things over from the first 2 games, put you at that limit almost immediately, and the result was you would be missing items. My account, i was missing the ghost sniper rifle among other things.

    Yeah, the Hitman WOA Trilogy as a whole are some of my favorite games of the 8th generation.

With that said, hopefully for future titles they get rid of the need to be online for anything other than saving leaderboard scores or potential multiplayer modes. Great review!

    The real reason Ghost Mode (and sniper co-op) was shut down was because the EG launcher doesn’t support the framework steam used for the multiplayer modes, and ioi didn’t feel like developing a work around for the epic games version. I guess they shut down the H2 servers to prevent competition with H3 on epic games? You can still mod it into the steam version of H3 and its completely playable.
