The fact that 2k dropped a serious review embargo coupled with how hard they're pushing this game everywhere else (commercials, email blasts, Internet ads, youtube) makes me think they know they have a buggy pile of poo poo on their hands and are trying to get as many early buys frontloaded before reviews/word-of-mouth kills sales.

The Mafia series has suffered from problems in the past, but they've been inconsistent problems. Mafia 1 had crummy graphics and some pretty lovely AI (even for back then), while Mafia 2 was just cut to ribbons to sell DLC, and some platforms got buggy releases. That's why it's hard to say exactly what could be wrong with 3, but no studio puts an embargo that hard in place without a seriously good reason. Especially 2k, who are usually really good about getting review copies out, which just makes it more suspicious.

Dapper_Swindler posted:this and its a crime story that for once isnt sucking off the Mafia and acting like they are these honorable thieves who helped the oppressed and family and stupid poo poo like that. they were a bunch of stupid sociopathic monsters, just watch the goodfellas. If i can go BJ Blaskowitz on some dumb Goomba adulterious murderous gently caress and their klansmen friends. thats a + in my book None of the Mafia games have glorified the mafia

Bought it against my better judgement and hard crashed 3 times before I could even get through the tutorial opening, one so bad I had to restart my comp. Welp this is why Steam has refunds I guess

Kontradaz posted:Hey man, crashes are just part of PC gaming - why do you expect the devs to have a game that runs without crashes on every spec? It's impossible. 2K tried their best The best part about when devs release dumpster-fire-quality ports is how utterly baffled they are that people don't like their flaming dumpster

UnfortunateSexFart posted:What? I think this game could be one of the best of the year. It's really excellent and brings a lot of nice new touches to the genre. It might be a fantastic game, but since I couldn't play it for longer than 20ish minutes without it making GBS threads the bed I never got to find out.

Dark_Swordmaster posted:The pissing sound doesn't turn off. I just saw some guy come out of a jazz club bathroom and he was still making the sound. Followed him out onto the street and it persisted. The polish on the game is Mafia quality indeed. The patch notes for this game are gonna be amazing

'Witcher 3 style dlc' seems like it's actually just releasing content that should have been in M3's actual release had they not rushed a dated half-finished port out the door. Might as well have tagged the thing with Early Access.

There is no legal reason to not include the KKK in this game. People write/film/etc poo poo that includes the klan all the time and the most that ever happened was a splinter klan group writing an angry letter to Mad Magazine back in, like, the 70s (Mad told them to gently caress off). I think some got upset at Oh Brother Where Art Thou but again they weren't dumb enough to file a lawsuit they would absolutely lose. Like so much else wrong with this game the answer boils down more to 'the publishers are dumb.'
