dylanjosh Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 (edited) Finished this game today. My first Mafia game. Its pretty good, as long as you're not expecting GTA style open world. Which is important, because on first impression the game kinda looks like it'll be a GTA-esque game. But its mostly all linear missions with the open world only there for some chasing sequences and for you to drive to mission location. Best thing was the vibe. The graphics, sounds, atmosphere are amazing and give a great sense of 1930's America. The city looks amazing, especially the neon lit places and when it rains at night. Story was good but I wished they would have done more of "show-dont-tell" when it came to things like Tony's family at home. Spoiler He makes a huge decision at the end in favour of his wife and kids but it felt flat for me because we never see him spend time with his wife and kids. There was also a moment where it was revealed that he was trying to stop drinking alcohol because he was drinking too much and I was like wtf????? he was an alcholic?? when did that happen??? The combat was the weakest part. I switched to using Keyboard/Mouse towards the end because I wanted to just end the combat parts quickly. Stealth also was pretty meh. Couple of same animations all the time. Overall I enjoyed it. But keep expecations in check as theres nothing to do in the world. This is like the polar opposite of a Ubisoft open world game. The game is short, about 10 hours or so, which is good. Edited October 22, 2023 by dylanjosh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zod Posted April 22, 2025 Report Share Posted April 22, 2025 (edited) Mafia 1 DE is amazing. Absolutely loved the story and characters. I hated the gameplay and driving but story kept me hooked from start to finish. Absolutely brilliant. Mafia 2 however, im not liking much. Its same old 360 game with barely any improvement except sharper resolution. Feels like cheap gta clone. So i decided to drop it for now. Idk if i will ever go back to. Feels too dated.

Zod Posted May 13, 2025 Report Share Posted May 13, 2025 What u guys think about Mafia 3? I feel like open world ruins the game and makes it really boring. ME 1 DE was so good but 2 and 3 feels very generic and bit boring. Anyone here completed 2 and 3 here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like you have to do lot of boring side activities before you start a story mission? ME1 was so focused and compact. I was hooked to the story. 2 and 3 feels really boring.
