What a terrible graphic. I have no artistic skills but even I could do better than that.

That game assassinated my hard drive :(

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did it go Fzzzt! and let out a little shower of sparks like in the game?

(I'm sorry about your hardrive though)

Nah, the game files are just very big. I enjoyed the reboot series tho. Haven't played the third one

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The third one is definitely worth it. Some of the levels are slightly more linear in the way you're encouraged to beat them (although definitely still work as sand boxes) since it was obviously an audition for the Bond game they're now making, but that also let them do some really cool remixing of the usual Hitman formula. The Knives Out-meets-the-illuninati detective mystery and the Hunter-becomes-the-hunted-and-back-again Berlin rave levels come instantly to mind. Also, just in general, I don't think the vibes have ever been stronger than they are in that third game.

the steam store has all these versions of the hitman series as part of world of assassination -- it looks like you can only buy the portions of the game with the base version

[–] MolotovHalfEmpty@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Well that seems unnecessarily complicated. If you'll excuse the reddit-logo link, someone posted a guide to buying different bits of content in 2024 on the Hitman subreddit here.

I had the first one on PS4 & played the rest on Xbox Games Pass.

The whole series is on PC Games Pass too, although I don't know if progress from the previous games carries over between Steam and Games Pass - possibly since there's a linked IOI account used for both.

Of course there's always pirate-jammin too.

I really wish they would remake the Blood Money contracts in the new engine or something. That PC port is a piece of shit but it has some of my favorite missions
