It's just newer levels in pretty much the same three-part game. Hitman 3 is more like an expansion. Yep. @adity If you like Hitman 3 you should definitely get 1 and 2, because you're just adding new levels and thats it. It's more of the same (in a good way). The "old games" here are not the ones from 15-20 years ago. Edited January 22, 2021 by dylanjosh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant I'm not too bother about getting those on xbox too since already have a lot of games to play. Ah ok that makes sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 22, 2021 Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 Hitman story. Wat. And yes, this is more of an expansion. If you have played Hitman before and known to series, you know the drill. 10-100 times the map, know every area and objects, multiple ways to eliminate the target, all silent assassin master run, etc,. While I like the new trilogy, it got nothing over old Hitman games. The new ones are very watered down for new players to get into the series. Not a bad thing as the games are still done well.

Story is not bad and ending is pretty satisfying of this new trilogy. And I can name multiple game franchises or Series which are more of a same in terms of core mechanics and havnt changed one bit and people give those games Goty. For example Doom Eternal which also feels like expansion to2016 Doom but people give it goty. So i don't know why you have to dismiss it by calling it a expansion. If its not broken or bad then why change it? There's nothing out there like Hitman and yes it streamlined for new players like every other big franchise games, but if you play it on hard difficulty with all assists off then its pretty much gives old game experience. I like new Trilogy more than old games including Blood money and its one of my all time favourite Hitman game.

If its not broken or bad then why change it? I didn't say it is bad? The game is very good at what it does. Am just saying if someone has already played previous games shouldn't be expecting much changes outside the map addition. DOOM Eternal isn't just map addition. 17 minutes ago, WhiteWolf said: There's nothing out there like Hitman Never going to be. That's why I never want Hitman series to die.

Its using same engine technology, which makes it possible to import levels. Lot of other games done that. Improvements applied in Hitman 3 are also applied to old Hitman games visually. So basically you can experience Trilogy all in one place and you say it like it's a bad thing Every game offers brand new locations, gadgets and characters like most sequels. Its Trilogy, you can't really expect ground breaking changes which affects core gameplay mechanics. Name one new gameplay changes or any major changes in UC3 and 4 outside of better graphics, story and locations? Lol. @Joe Cool Lol Doom Eternal is exact same as Doom 2016. Almost identical in graphics and gameplay. Nothing major changed in Doom Eternal. I played it and i was like this can be sold as expansion. You can't really expect them to change whole lot in 2 years time and same goes for Hitman games. For a sequel to change in major way, you have to spend 4-5 years or more like Rockstar games do. IO is also walking away from Hitman games now. They not milking it with 4 and 5. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.gameinformer.com/2020/12/31/io-interactive-on-walking-away-from-the-hitman-series%3famp Moving onto 007 games.

R3D_D3ViL Posted January 22, 2021 Report Share Posted January 22, 2021 These days dlc's, expansions, sequels; everything is a blur. Just a bit of overhaul in the graphics, a couple of minor gameplay addition, and then it becomes a new thing. It is just the amount of new content that dictates whether it is a dlc or a sequel. Expansions are rarities nowadays. All of this is just to mint as much money as possible to get max ROI. AA/AAA games these days are huge investments and to take risks and fail is not an option for many publishers/studios. If you are looking at true sequels, then look at the shift from old GoW trilogy to the newer God of War or RE3 to RE4, where the way you actually play the game has completely changed but the main ethos of the franchise still remains. Those are few and far between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are few and far between. 2-3years not enough time to make huge changes in sequels, no sequel will drastically change compare to its predecessor. Its not possible. In case of Hitman, i will say one more thing that dismissing Hitman locations just as map packs is huge insult to talented devs at IO interactive. Every level in each installation of the series is beautifully detailed and massive in scope. Every inch of those maps are hand crafted and all maps feel like a real place where people work and live. It takes them months to create one map coz they know map design is strength of Hitman games. They not changing core formula much and following tried and tested gameplay structure but that's coz they sequels part of one Trilogy. So its unfair to expect big changes as no other game or franchise part of Trilogy changed much in its core formula. Can't wait to experience this level on SX with RT.
