There was another spot in Chongqing where an NPC wouldn't talk to me to progress the mission story until I flicked the guidance on and off.

Just finished the campaign. Time to go back through the levels. What a fantastic game, though that last level sucks. hitman should never be ON RAILS

Hitman 2016 is the only one with good cutscenes. I hope they put a bit more budget into the Bond license when it comes to story presentation.

All the CGI stuff for 2016 was so good. The E3 trailer, the montage of memorable assassinations from earlier games, etc. They had a David Fincher vibe to them. You could tell how much they had to cut back for Hitman 2 when IOI went independent because the cutscenes were just still images.

1's cutscenes were outsourced to somewhere else in square. after leaving square they had to make the cutscenes themselves. between 2 and 2's dlc they hired people who actually could do something better than the freezeframe cutscenes and they were bragging about it lol

There's a lot of buggy challenge unlock stuff in this, and I'm guessing the weird mastery transfer thing doesn't help. If you're a person who has OCD about seeing a list of things and having to get a checkmark next to each one you might be struggling a bit.

Been replaying the 1 and 2 missions since it's been a while. I've got the full mission story helper stuff on, mostly in the interest of time since I have other stuff to do all the time. I like to get to a location, look at the mission stories list, go "ooh don't think I did that one before" and just let the game guide me. For locations I like (sapienza is cool and quaint as hell imo) I'll go back and go to town with exploring and murdering freestyle.

I just did Berlin today and that's an incredible level, which my first run ended in a really wild way where I stumbled on a special assassination that did not pan out the way I thought it would. I stumbled on to the club owner shortly after I'd killed 4 of the ICA agents. I knew where Montgomery was and no one else so far. I knew it had said to kill 5 of them, but I wasn't really sure how it would play out once you killed a fifth one since it was my first time through. I decided since I'd basically explored everywhere and hadn't found any more agents, I'd go ahead and do this one now and kill Montgomery through it. As soon as you place the call and sit down you hear over the headset that they know it's you and that your "trap" completely backfires! Montgomery sat down at the desk and brought FOUR other dudes with him. I was like oh poo poo the game actually hosed me like this and then at the end of the conversation hit the kick button and upended the desk and 47 hides behind it. Then you find a shotgun that the owner taped to the bottom of the desk so I decided gently caress it and just started blasting. Since I was then in a fire fight with 5 dudes it meant I ended up killing all of them even once the mission no longer labeled them targets, getting me a bunch more of their challenges and the one for killing them as they try to evacuate lmao. Normally I try to avoid letting things descend into that kind of chaos but for the context here it just felt so appropriate so I ran with it. Really brilliant twist on the formula for the whole level.

This is massively old news to everyone Im sure but god drat it feels good to hound a target for what feels like hours and then realize with overwhelming animal adrenaline that you have a legit opportunity sitting right in front of you. After following Dalia Margolis for ages I basically screamed when I was able to clock her in the head with a wrench without witnesses. Sick poo poo.

My other favorite moment so far was my first time in Dartmoor. I'd already been in the level a long time but was still just exploring. I knew I'd missed some events like the detective entering and the family meeting but I made mental notes to check them out next time. I noticed everyone was gathering again in the sitting room so I got to the bar as mansion staff just before Alexa arrived. She started talking and walked to the bar and I was just thinking this would be the perfect opportunity to poison her on a future run when she took a sip and dropped dead. I completely flipped my poo poo because I had absolutely no idea who did it or how. Took a while for me to realize I'd caused it because the first thing I did in the level was explore the outside, including fixing the poison brewer in the greenhouse, allowing the murderer to make and use another dose.

I just did Mendoza actually following the mission stories and it was a really cool subversion of the usual format. All the things like 47 narrating to himself the briefings that Diana usually does, Diana creating environment distractions that you'd normally do yourself..... such a cool way to mix things up. I was kind of disappointed in Hitman 2 that it never felt like Lucas was actually your "partner on the ground" but you totally get that here

It's so cool having Diana in your ear for all these games and then setting up a hit with her in person. I also really liked that the opportunities I've done involved killing several non-targets. It's a cool way of showing that 47 and Diana are doing their own thing without the ICA.. Gonna spend a ton of time in Mendoza.

Gonna spend a ton of time in Mendoza. All of the other maps run perfectly for me on PC in Hitman 3, even ones that were choppy for me when I played Hitman 2 on the same computer, but for some reason Mendoza is janky as poo poo. It happens in when I'm at the big overlook above the garden party with a bunch of NPCs which makes sense, but I also get weird stuttery parts in some other, closed off areas. It stands out strangely because the rest of the game is like perfect 60fps edit: and yeah I really liked that I was following the opportunities and expecting to Silent Assassin it but then going along with Diana's plan ended up requiring me to plug a room full of guards after she stabbed someone in broad daylight lol

I wonder if there are people who don't understand it and just think the graphics are really lovely and get turned off of the game because of it. I loving love it. They're great tutorials and I'm glad they kept them for the people who just buy 3.

This game is so loving good. I am starting to GET it. It somehow feels both like a dry realistic simulation and like an incredibly robust play set. I’ve cleared Paris like 5 times now. Dropping the stage lights on Novikov made me howl like a mad ape.
