The remake has much better gunplay and graphics, and overall has been ‘smoothed out’, but personally I think the new casting choices were unbelievably bad, and take all of the soul out of the game.
If you can get past the jank of the original (and get the community patch to add the old music back in), I personally think the original is the better game by far, but I was a huge fan of the original, so I’m biased.
It’s an okay game, but far worse than the first two. They forced an open world onto it, and made it pretty repetitive. The DLC is more linear and feels a lot more like a typical Mafia story telling.
Oh man I remember the open-world obsession era. It’s still sort of with us, but a few companies are daring to stick with linear narratives that don’t allow as many branching paths, like Control or Alan Wake 2. Even non-linear narratives are being pulled off in non-open-world games like Baldur’s Gate 3.
You could buy any Asus gaming mouse with user replaceable switches and order a bag of Huano silent switches from AE. (if the noise increases or the switch dies just replace the switc+h)
This is not a cheap option, but could potentially endure for a longer time.
I remember it was fine when I played it 14 years ago. Not as good as the original, but quite enjoyable. The remaster is comically bugged though, at least on Xbox.
-I finished Mafia 2 long before I finished Mafia 1 and I loved it. But after playing Mafia 1 DE, I replayed Mafia 2 and the story felt worse than Mafia 1. -F***ing police. They are everywhere. -Stupid achievements like “drive 1000 miles”, “collect 150 posters”.
I’m not going to play Mafia 2 since Mafia 1 was way too short for me, like 5-6 hours and I didn’t rush it. Not much to do after the main story ist complete and not the biggest replay value.
I kind of liked it but there was not enough content to justify the price, even at the sale i got it from. But maybe i was just asking too much from a game that has been released more than 20 years ago.
This makes a lot more sense! You feel you didn’t receive what you thought you had paid for, and don’t want to do that again. Sorry for downvoting you initially, but I hope you can see how it originally came off
I liked it, I guess I could have emphasized that a little more. I just wished there would be more to it, since the game is coming from a big publisher (2K) and the imho hefty asking price of 40€ (for the definitive edition, without sale).
No need to feel sorry for voting on opinions either way btw ;)
