an actual dog posted:I think the most likely culprit is valve legal thing. Don't think there's any cases out there where you can buy something on steam and access it elsewhere. It's not exactly the same thing, but when Rocket League got delisted from Steam and became an Epic exclusive you definitely got to carry over all your purchases there. With the Hitman 1 levels being free during the launch window but the Hitman 2 levels not being, it makes me think it's more some publisher thing with WB, because they only published the second game. After that Tim Sweeney post I'm guessing Epic just finds some way to eat the cost because this is one of their bigger exclusive buys and they don't want any extra friction for people jumping over from Steam

Lmao. I love the "sorry, we're looking into this" type stuff that always just so happens to come out immediately after bad PR about a very specific decision they likely made months ago. Hope they're able to get something worked out for the PC users, but honestly getting a previous Steam install to work with a current EGS install seems tricky so I don't really blame them for giving up on the idea. Maybe just make it so that anyone who buys H3 on EGS in the first few months gets all the H2 and H1 levels for free.

Whatever the decision I'm going to buy it anyway because I love Hitman.

i don't think I own an SSD large enough to fit windows + every hitman Level. The download is gonna be like 170 gigs.

Nah they used a new compression algorithm. When you download H3 it actually downloads all of H3 and H2 and H1 in one package. That way if you wanna play the old missions you don't have to download anything else, you just have to unlock them (by either buying them or connecting your previous license). So all 3 games is like 70GB total. It's cool.

Its stupid but ioi are some of the only devs that give you a full working game at launch these days and some of the only devs that deserve their money, and they should continue to make money off of all the fantastic hitman levels. They should unfuck this though because this really only hurts their most loyal players.

These are the only games I buy the deluxe versions of because IOI's post-launch support is so good but I would definitely be irked by this situation if I was playing them on PC On second thought the extra costumes in the deluxe version look kinda lame so standard version it is MeatwadIsGod fucked around with this message at 17:12 on Jan 17, 2021 |

No real news but it's clear that they want to make it work and I highly suspect they'll just eat the cost and give it all away for free. https://twitter.com/IOInteractive/status/1350899132966318084

Yeah, having their incredible work overlooked by pedantic idiots with fifteen year old hardware woes, over poo poo that is irrelevant to the gameplay

Realized I never played the last DLC mission for Hitman 2 so I'm gonna do this while this downloads from the Epic Games Store

Apparently the VR works pretty well once you get to grips with the controls.

Dubai is sick. Seems like there are fewer listed Mission Stories for each area but there are still lots of dialogue bits and unique interactions that aren't covered under the stories, you just have to find them yourself now. Now I'm also faced with the big new Hitman game dilemma of how much to replay each mission before doing the next one...

I do a straight shot through every level first, only reloading a save for really grievous mistakes, then i go back to the start and spend like hours on a level at a time

The bank and haven in 2 really feel like they could be blood money levels theyre so well designed

elf help book posted:play the same mission for a week straight 👍 Yeah I played Hitman 1 as the episodes came out and did this for way longer than a week, I respect that. I'm thinking I'll do each mission twice before moving onto the next one -- one time following story clues, and once just freestyling it.

I'm pretty sure the game didn't tell you how to move your progress over on boot. Had to figure that out online.
