    Few things I forgot to mention:
    1) Olivia Marcano was a Marcano by marriage. She was married to Sal's brother Lucio, but Olivia killed him, and became a capo
    2) As of 2016, Lincoln Clay is wanted by the FBI

      If anyone hasn't figured out how Tommy was found residing in Empire Bay. In the remake, the money pick-up mission Paulie and Sam explained the motel is a front for stop by for all the dons or capos to reside, making drop off/pick ups. The in and out of town families or bosses are making business and meetings. Morrello was included in motel reside to make business. At that moment, he and Falcone met, started the drug business together, splitting the powder and cash. Then war ignited between him and Salieri Morello, he had to cut off business with Falcone. With Morello killed, leaving the motel in possession of Salieri. He and Falcone met, and Falcone convinced Salieri to get into drug business with Falcone support. Then Salieri behind bars, addressing his acting boss handling business and talking to contacts of cops, feds, and friends of the family. By 1950s the search was over, Salieri called in Falcone favors.

    Salieri thinking Frank was killed by Tommy was the main reason I suspected that there would be betrayal at the end of the game. Apparently, Salieri never talked about Frank, his best friend for almost his entire life ever again after his ‘death’. It just made me think if he can let go of someone he’s known and trusted that long that easily, it would be even easier for him to put 2 through your head

      There's a theory that Salieri found out pretty early about Frank and the reason that Tommy never heard Salieri talk about Franky afterwards were because he couldn't stand the fact Tommy would've betrayed him on it.
      Of course this all assumes that Sam was wanting to betray both Paulie and Tommy years before the bank heist.

      It reminds me of the Rat in the first season of the Sopranos. He had a remarkable career as a member of the mafia, then left and had a whole new life and family in Maine, until Tony comes along, strangles him with a cord, and leaves him dead in the dirt. It shows that associating with the mafia is a deal with the devil no matter what: if you stay in then youll likely get killed by a rival or police, or end up with a lifelong prison bid. If you get out youll be looking over your shoulder for the rest of your life, and the moment you let your guard down the men you once called blood brothers will put you down without a second thought for your treachery. As badass as the mafia or any other gang is, its a poison that latches on to you the second you go near it and it takes an act of God to get it off.

      All that being said Mafia 3 was just boring and repetitive and the story coulda probably just been told with a much shorter game cause clearing all the gang operations and everything was just grindy filler that distracts from the real meat of the game which is the fantastic story.

    You also missed out on the 2 other ending as the "Vito Ending" isn't the only one. The reason on the 3 endings is dependent on how many districts you've given to your underbosses and the one with the most would have a alt ending.
    If you gave Burke most of the ending, Burke would become the defacto leader of the gang that Lincoln left behind and instead of running it well, he turned New Bordeaux into a land of total debauchery.
    By Nicki's words (Thomas Burke's daughter), after Lincoln left, they found cancer cells on Thomas's liver and was stated that he would be dead by at least six months but he took the money he earned and went to Mexico and switch for a new liver thru the black market and went on to survive for another 15 years. During that period, he went on and expand the criminal empire of New Bordeaux by expanding on booze and finally drugs with him shipping heroin at first before expanding on cocaine which he became the biggest distributor of narcotics in the entire of the US. Burke got soo rich from illicit activities that he became one of the richest fella in the entire of the Southern US and because of that, he was able to buy a seat in the city council and even had the entire state changing it's name from New Bordeaux to "Bourbon City".
    However, being the biggest narcotics distributor has it's price as every criminal syndicate wants a slice of the pie and during the 1980s, all hell broke loose when the Cuban gang declared war on Burke's operations and during the entire period, acts of terrorism was happening across the city with car bombs, kidnappings, murders, shootout on broad daylight and brothels burnt to the ground. With his operation under threat, the Cubans finally sealed the deal and called Burke out. Not going down without a fight, in 1984, Burke took an M60 machine guns and a few grenades to assault the Cubans alone. He did kill a few of the Cubans but he didn't survive the attack and instead got taken out by the Cubans. Since then, none of the top bosses after Burke had managed to sit down on the seat for more than a year and New Bordeaux till the time of the 2010s was still a lawless paradise.
    If you gave Cassandra the ending, Cassandra and the Haitian Mob would be the defacto leader of the gang that Lincoln left behind and instead of running it well, she turned New Bordeaux into a hellhole and did ruin the whole economical structure of the city and even to an extent, the entire god damn state.
    When Lincoln passed on his mantle to Cassandra, almost all major criminal organization known by man that spans from Boston to Miami that respected that order and everyone went for her blood including the Cubans, the Commission, the Columbians and some say even the Triads but none of these organization knew who they were fighting and how much of deep shit had they stepped into.
    One by one, they lost their leader by murder with Johnny Galante being slit in the throat while watching a porn flick in a porn theater, Manny Moreno being burnt alive during his daughter's 15th birthday party, Severo Garcia being buried in the sand right along the beach and drowned when the waves covered him up and Anton Bagrov being beaten to death with a crowbar. Things got soo bad that more and more mobsters and organizations went after Cassandra time and time again with relentless firepower but each time, they failed and came out worse.
    Things got soo bad that the governor declared martial law and brought in the National Guard to maintain order but Cassandra has other plans as she ordered the assassination of the governor who was then shot in the head, in broad daylight, right outside the steps of the capitol building and that's when people realized that Cassandra effectively runs New Bordeaux and no one can touch her but they were wrong... VERY wrong.
    By assassinating the governor in broad daylight, Cassandra has messed with an enemy that she could not even win and that's the government. When the news reached the senate, they decided to pull all government grants and fundings to the entire state of Louisiana in retaliation of what Cassandra did by cutting school funds, maintenance works fess and all kinds of supportive grants in order to force the people to push Cassandra out while bankrupting the state.
    When the massive hurricane of 2004 hit Louisiana, it was soo devastating and with the state in disrepair even before the hurricane hit, the city couldn't rebuild and is still in a dilapidated state in the 2010s and almost all had nicknamed the hurricane as "Hurricane Cassandra" upon the devastation of how these 2 had brought to the whole state.
    However, the condition and how Cassandra turned out to be was still a mystery as the game ends as some had said that she was killed and got swept away by the tides during the hurricane whereas some had stated that she had hidden out of sight and had hid in the Bayou to restructure another bounce back from there but as people said, god knows how she is now.

In my own playthrough i got Cassandra. So someone who played MIII got Burke as a boss after Lincoln Clay left the city.

    Mafia 1 & 2 had this fantastic way of telling a story in the background.
    Throughout your main storyline - it's mostly Tommy/Vito doing odd jobs, having fun, cracking jokes & starting a gang war before shit gets serious in the late game.
    But what's really happening is they're burning bridges, being played or completely misunderstanding what they're even doing.
    In Mafia 1 - there's this excellent story in the background of Salieri slowly coming undone by power & betrayal.
    It's unclear when Salieri sanctioned a hit on Tommy, but it may have been on his mind since 1935 - assuming that's when Frank was discovered & whacked. It means Salieri was throwing Tommy at the wall, hoping he'd die on a job. Best make use of the guy at least, y'know? The assassination of Turnbull & the resulting 5 Stat chase, with no backup - might've actually been a set up. Kill 2 birds. Or the pressure for him to fix his drinking habits was actually to keep the guy useful enough, before he's whacked.
    Or moving in on the drug trade behind his Capo's backs. Did Sam know? Probably, since Salieri let him in on the plan before Tommy & Paulie. Which means Sam was backstabbing his mates long before he shot Paulie.
    What it also means though - is that Sam sat on the info of the back robbery - went to Salieri, spilt the beans & they both decided to just wait & whack Paulie when home, assuming he had the cash. Maybe even Luigi was in on it, since they never went to Sarah's house, likely through risk of collateral.
    Rich with details. Love it.

    I loved mafia 3 it really portrayed the racism in america during the segregation period and showed just how monstrous people were its a hard hitting story with great atmosphere.

    Fine work. All the Mafia games are badass. It is too bad mafia 3 was overlooked because I loved it, and yes, Donovan is a badass, but Lincoln Clay was an awesome protagonist that even Donovan admired.

    I was pretty upset with Hangar 13 taking over the franchise, especially since Mafia III was such a step back. However, I'm back on board after the excellent Mafia Definitive Edition. They recently announced a new entry, but said it's still a few years away.

    When I played this game, I gave everyone the same amount of territory but since I gave Burke his territory last he became the new boss and now New Bordeaux is basically an Urban war zone as gangs vie for control of the city. But, I lie it best when Vito took over control.
