The Hitman franchise is one of my favorite game franchises, with the exception of Absolution.
Blood Money was my favorite game and when I learned the latest Hitman would be very similar (sandbox, free choices…) I was in awe.
I bought a copy last week, as I got a PS4. I must say I was not disappointed. The amount of different challenges and opportunities for eliminating your targets are astonishing. The maps are very well designed, with my favorite being Sapienza. Open shops and buildings, people sitting in cafés, taking photos of the landscape… Everything seems so lively and realistic.
I do think some features could be improved and here’s a list of the things I’d like to see in season 2.
Accents. Most NPCs in the game, from the bartenders in Sapienza to the hotel staff in Bangkok have flawless American accents. The maps would have an ever better feeling to them if the NPCs spoke English with foreign accents.
At least one sniper rifle should be made available for suitcase carry.
Weapon costumization, a least on unique weapons, like the silverballer.
Picked up weapons could be transferred to your inventory like in Blood Money. Using desert eagles, six shooters and elephant hunting rifles wasn’t practical, but it sure was fun. And I’d love to see more weapons, I think the game lacked variety when it came to guns.
More animations for meelee kills. For example, kitchen and combat knives could have a different animation.
More ways to distract NPCs. For example, you could approach a guard and tell him there’s someone lying on the ground somewhere, then lead him there and take care of him. This should be random, maybe the NPC would follow you, or become suspicious of you or simply refuse to follow.
Some maps that would be cool: a cruise ship. Shopping mall. A small rural town. Airport.
I can’t wait for the extra missions coming on November 7th!
