LOVED Mafia 3. From start to finish. I never minded the grind since the combat is so good. And the main missions are awesome. Story is amazing, the soundtrack is out of this world the muscle cars are badass. Overall an outstanding game.
Van Steel I actually liked it the most out of the series. The setting is amazing, the world is unique the storyline and documentary style was so good. The repetitiveness of disrupting revenue was just so tedious but the main missions were very good, mafia 2 was good but when I played it again you realise the pacing issues, short story and nothing to do in free roam. I really loved how they had the balls to depict an accurate depiction of what society was like for black people then. Especially when a lot of people don’t like to face the truth.
Yes it's very good game problem is their title which didn't suit to this what Mafia Games used to be. Titles when you play as mobster as Tomy and Vito were and Lincoln Clay doesn't suit to be mobster of any kind. He is absolutly bad ass who cannot match absolutly any mobster what is obvious casue he is former spec ops soldier with Vietnam war tour but he dosent fi to game about Mafia and mobster.. I think whould be better if they make it as different Ip which could be connetced with Mafia universe but shouldn't be sell as next Mafia game
I've always been jealous that I don't have a cool accent like you LOL. I had high expectations from Mafia 3 as I've been a HUGE Mafia 2 fan since release day in 2010. However when it did release in 2016 I was let down by the repetitive nature of the game. Albeit the cutscenes at the end of the chapters were really amazing. I loved how they also implemented Vito into the game. Because I never gave it a chance after I rushed through the story - partially because I got bored of it but also was going through a weird time in life - I never got the full experience. I think a lot of fans can relate. Because in retrospect there's so many things about this game I never experienced but have seen in videos. Like secret areas, beta content, things like that. It is a shame that just like Mafia 2, Mafia 3 has so much unused content that never made it to the final release. That said, the soundtrack, atmosphere, and so much about Mafia 3 is very nostalgic to me. It takes me back to a time in October 2016 when I was going through what I though was a major health scare, beginning of a 2.5 year relationship with my now ex-girlfriend, and a time of change in my life as an 18 almost 19 year old dude. Looking back, I think it was an amazing game. I've always wanted to replay it, but for some reason because of the personal reasons I listed above. My mind associates this game with a weirdly, negatively, positive time in my life and it makes my stomach hurt thinking about it. Super weird I know. But that's the power of video games haha. I'm so excited to experience the new/old MAFIA. I played it way back in 2004 but as a 7 year old kid never got the full experience. I made it a couple missions in and never played it again and returned it to Blockbuster because it was too hard for me (that's what she said).
I like Mafia 3, it wasnt the best but it wasnt the worst For me: Negatives: Repetitivness, some glitches And the mirrors Positives: driving, combat, stealth, story, music and Vito
you're not being objective. the driving and stealth sucks. collision physics are non-existent, and you can stand right in front of enemies and they won't even notice you.
Preach it my guy! I can totally agree, this game was certainly looked over, and it's a shame cause Lincoln's story is so resonating and relatable in certain aspects and I am sad that it got swept under the radar.
Honestly, I shamelessly adore this game. I bought it as the bundle with the other two mafia games and I just adore every piece of it. The story is so good. Classic revenge story and Lincoln is such a bad ass. I think Hangar 13 did a great job and I will continue to support the company. I just don't think the repetitive nature of the missions is really all that bad. You never have to complete every side mission to continue with the story so it gives you, the player, a lot of choice on how to proceed. You can vary things up or do the same thing over and over until you finish damaging rackets. Hangar 13 leaves so much to the player and just gives you the tools you need to complete every objective you choose. I think a lot of people just forgot how to make their own fun in games. They expect the game to tell them how to have fun rather than creatively seek out ways to make the game a blast. And I believe Mafia 3 really nails that player agency. You have so many choices. Sure you can do it all the same way every time but then why not just watch a movie or show? This is a truly open and well-made world with a lot of unscripted free-form missions. You can make your own fun and it's been a long time since I've had this much fun playing a video game.
I like the money grinding aspect and driving and the boss system in this game especially though I need something like this in another game, a game with shadow of war's nemesis system of mob bosses in mafia 4 would be a nice game
@Willie Brazell While I can't deny that, maybe, some didn't like Lincoln was colored. I wouldn't say that is the reason entirely. The game says in the opening he isn't even African American. He's mixed. Something like Dominican and Italian. So he's technically still white, if that's true. He just has a darker skin tone. He identified as colored though because people were too ignorant to see the difference in the past and that's actually pretty realistic.
yes Lincoln is such a bad ass as any mobster coldn't be nor Tommy nor Vito, but Lincoln made me wonder is real Mafia game what I'm playing ??? This game real is called Mafii??I't was my impression and misleading title. I expected to play story of some mobster. And get story about bou who was fucked by mafia but he wasn't and could not be any mobster.
@@piotrmackowiak9636 Tommy and Vito were Italian so they had actual opportunity in the Mafia. They could be made men. Lincoln was considered colored and although he was in the black mob under Sammy, he could never be made. Because no one, I think not even he, considered himself Italian. Or even considered that he was. The only one who mentions he could be part italian is Father James and that was only speculation, really. Lincoln was still a badass tho. He had personality. The only protagonist that comes close is Tommy. Vito was pretty bland, although he was a hothead.
@@rpglife7268 yes and Lincol doesn't suit to be protagonist of game which is called Maffia and for me Mafia it's Italian mob not any other mob. Russian mob i would not call Mafia. And I think the whole Mafia 3 problem is that a whole plot dosen't suit to the title what it's uses. But yes in my country i see tendency to call Mafia any organized crime organizations what it's not true.
Mafia 3 gunplay is bloody awsome and so underrated , mafia 3 problem was repeative missions and having a huge world with nothing to do in it , im glad they bring gunplay in mafia 1 remake , i hope mafia 1 remake gets metharic higher than 78 +
Did they actually add bullet holes in the definitive edition? The second game actually showed entry and exit wounds on people you shot, but when I first tried this game, it was just generic trash textures. Really turned me off of the game.
The actual missions I really liked but 90% of the game was taking over the city which were so uninteresting you did the same thing over and over again.
You should do a video on the DLCs as well. After upgrading to the definitive edition I went straight for the DLCs as soon as I could. The “Sign of the Times” is hands down my favourite and it’s one of the best gaming experiences I’ve had in quite a while.
Yeah, Signs of the Times is great. It also adds a great money sink into the game - renovation, baby 😀 I hated the game when it came out but now, playing the definitive edition, I simply can't stop.
Without too many spoilers, I will say that there’s a scene where you escape some kind of LSD-ridden bar/club, and when I played it, White Room by Cream just started blaring as I shot my way out. Genuinely one of my top 10 favorite moments in gaming I’ve ever experienced. What a god-tier DLC
You get more interesting conversations if you sneak up on criminals. If you use the WeMod program you can go "undetected" and hear boss conversation you normally never would. ( it also has a lot of handy mods as well ) About 50% of the reason I like this game so much is the music.
As a long time Mafia fan, I got this game right when it came out and way majorly disappointed. It just didn't feel like a Mafia game. I came back to it a couple years later in 2020 and fell in love with the setting and the story. Yes the mission structure is very repetitive and annoying, but the open world, the story, and characters were really well done. The level of detail in the world and how NPCs react to your actions is superb. Can't wait for the Mafia 1 remake.
UA-cam's algorithms and shit are out of whack in fairness.. When I did a letsplay of Friday The 13th.. the automatic tag picked it up as Five Nights At Freddies for some reason.. and it took me forever to change it as they literally had the Friday The 13th game tagged as "Fri13" ... >.>
It's almost like there is a Mafia 2 Definitive Edition recently released that the game publishers want to sell and pay UA-cam to add to the description of any related game. Whoda thunk it?
A note about the stealth mechanics; imo, the main reason the stealth is so heavily focused on is exclusively because of the protagonist's backstory. He had fought in Vietnam, and only recently came back. It would make sense for a hardened soldier to approach things in a manner that was similar to what he experienced during wartime. I feel this is most heavily made apparent in the 'river' mission. The way the protag goes about his business in the ending minutes of that particular mission sort of play especially into his backstory's strengths. Sorry for being really vague, but I like avoiding spoilers. Those that have played the game more than halfway will likely know what I'm referring to, and those that haven't might decide to down the road. :P Edit: Typos, typos everywhere.
I’m replaying Mafia 3 because when I first played it didn’t finished it.. but man… I missed so much of this game! i’ve been having ana amazing time playing it! it’s a great game with a great story
After finishing the game and all the dlc as well as nearly unlocking all achievements and completing all side activities I think this is actually a real fucking good game that's worth playing
Apart from some visual bugs like odd bad lighting and half of the map around Sammy's bar having an invisible ground it wasnt bad i liked the story a bit tbh
Story I didnt mind at all, really enjoyed it. That early bar scene was pretty powerful & one of more memorable in series. Music amazing, world I didnt mind but the side fillers quests before main quest really took u out of the immersive mafia experience. Also hanger 13 mechanics just feel gamey. Gunplay, movement & interations just felt cheap & snappy hard to explain. Altho the wounded enemies almost made up for it, every game shld show the effects of people getting shot, adds a lot of weight to your actions at least for me
I’m gonna disagree with you on the gunplay and movements thats the best especially the gunplay because it was so satisfying and I loved how it feels when shooting it.
@@vishansilva8546 there were moments it felt satisfying, definitly luved the wounded enemies & shotguns felt good. I felt it catered bit too much to shooter combat tho just with animations, movement, weapon pickups etc. From memory after u were in walk mode & went out of it for quick run, it didnt return to walk & had to hit key again. Simple things like that. Im more methodical gamer with movement & prefer mechanics leaning bit more that way. But that would fustrate a lot of people im sure lol
It's about DAMN time my friend. It's not the games fault in my opinion I think it got a bad shack Hanger 13 basically had 2 years to redo this game with a limited budget. No it's not Mafia 2 are 1 but for what it is, it is a good game. Great No but good pretty good.
Main Warhorse concept artist M.Podprocky also worked on Mafia 3 art. He also designed face of Joe Barbaro. Lot of Warhorse guys worked on Mafia 3. But then they started to work on KCD.
This game, is the perfect example of what GTA 5 story mode should have been. My only complaint is the repetitiveness, but every thing else is gold. Don't disappoint me rockstar with gta 6
I was actually living in New Orleans when this game came out and to see the city and the surrounding area faithfully recreated both in the environment and ATMOSPHERE, I was pretty thrilled
I was really exited when The Godfather came out after having played Mafia 1&2, but it was so repetetive that I never finished it. I never ended up buying Mafia 3, firstly because I would have had to upgrade my PC, but then also because of the bad reviews. I now do own it since I bought the trilogy for a big discount while I was only looking to buy the DE, so I guess I could try the story mod Bisquit mentioned.
@@johnbakker4828 hence I suggested Don's edition or black hand the original game is a bit repetitive. In the Don's edition for e.g. each family has a different compound( interior and exterior) there are many new rackets and fronts many of which have had their interior changed but the best part was you could see the family tree in toms report and as you did the hits they would get rubbed out also you could now have upto 5 guys follow you around which was gangster as hell.
Really great vid! You actually just taught me something lmao and I'm replaying Mafia 3 for a second time already! I didn't know you can do the charged up attack right away, always mashed 3 punch combo, and then charged. So good, I'd call it actual journalism.
This game really shines most when avoiding the slow stealth whistle option it gives you. I personally almost never have a silenced weapon on me and i love going really agressive and fast with the stealth takedowns until eventually they find out i am there and i bust out the loud stuff. Makes things flow more dynamically in these big base of operations takedowns that get old quick if you just cheese through them.
I love Mafia 3 despite it being buggy, unpolished and the mission layout being boring and repetitive, but I can’t wait for Mafia Definitive Edition which I think will become my new favourite Mafia game, I really can’t wait to get the Mafia Trilogy where I’ll be playing all three Mafia games as part of my Mafia Marathon. 👍🏻
I’ve seen very little games that have actual storefront interiors (not pasted on window photos.) It’s such a simple yet coveted thing for me in an open world game like this
I really liked this game, they tried something different there was definitely some tedious things but overall enjoyable game to play. I liked what they did with Mafia 2. They should do something in Mafia 4 and maybe use actual historical events with Gotti etc. Maybe hire Michael Franzese get some cool ideas
I remember that in Frankie Potts files Al Capone ,Lucky Luciano and Johnny Torrio were mentioned ,and the same with Capone in Mafia III and Mafia De,so yeah would cool see more historical characters, H13 did a great job with the historical context in Mafia III and De ,remember me AC but with the old America.
Great review, Roxy! I just played through the game myself and I still have one DLC to get through, the main story has been completed. The game definitely doesn't deserve the amount of hate that it gets. I agree that it gets repetitive after a while, but so does The Godfather: The Game when you have to take over and extort fronts and rackets, but here you actually have to earn your way through them. So that can sort of get annoying when you want to progress through the game. And the fact that missions are non-linear, it feels like there's little structure to it, but then at the same time it gives you the option to freeride but also to complete missions when you want to. I mean you barely even scratched the surface of this game and how awesome it really is. It really does immerse you in the late 60s and it's actually good for someone like me who wasn't born until the 80s, to understand that time period and the late that went on during those times. Even the KKK appears in the game. So it was a bold but right move on Hangar 13's part. It was history, it's how things took place. Not acknowledging it doesn't change the fact that it happened. I bought the Trilogy even though I already owned Mafia 2 which converted to Definitive Edition for free because I wanted to pre-order the new Mafia remake but also check out Mafia 3 since I felt that the new game style may sort of carry over to the remake. I've been avoiding Mafia 3 for so long but now I'm glad I played it. Yes, it certainly had some bugs and glitches, but overall it is a fun game! It's fun to get the armored truck from the Vehicle Delivery service provided by Burke and get it up to speed and start smashing into other cars. It's all a lot of fun. And anyone who doesn't like John Donovan...needs to get outta here!
It's a good game, I'm enjoying it, the music is amazing, the cars are cool and the driving rocks. It can be repetitive, but all games can be. I prefer it to mafia 2.
I always really liked this game, I in no way deny that the mission structure was incredibly dull and repetitive but I love literally every other aspect of the game, the story, the voice acting, the music, the world and time period, and more. I also love mafia 1 and 2 , that goes without saying, their heavily story-driven campaign structure with a rich variety of mission types were amazing to play, however I feel that in regards to their open worlds, they are at a really large loss compared to Mafia 3. Outside the main campaign, you are left with a beautiful and interesting world... with nothing to do besides collectibles and secrets. I reckon if Hangar 13 were able to combine the structure of Mafia 1 and 2's campaigns in regards to their mission variety, and Mafia 3's open world with it's interactivity and additional content (Gang turfs, Racket control, etc.), we could see a really awesome Mafia 4 if we are lucky enough to get one.
I never really understood why this game was received so poorly I mean sure the graphics could’ve been a bit better in some aspects of the city but the story was top notch and they nailed the setting of 1960s New Orleans
Mafia 3 has a lot of major problems, from gameplay to bugs and glitches to the dead city and repetitive missions, It was an ok game but not worthy of the name Mafia at all.
Both mafia 1 and 2 have dead and barren cities. Not to mention the infamous glare bug in mafia 2 where the sun will literally oversaturate the game and crash it
Mafia 3 was my first one and I just received my pre order of mafia 1 yesterday, such a great game so far, I missed it the first time and love experiencing it for the first time.
I liked it, but I wish they'd fix the damn trophy glitches. I've got 1 left now for over 2 years, when you have to kill all racket bosses, but after 4 playthroughs, it still needs to be fixed.
Whenever I was driving around appreciating the ambience, something just broke down and reminded me how unoptimized it is. Most often the pedestrians throw themselves in front of my car...
As a game such as mafia 3, i understand that its underrated. The only downfall i see is having only 1 save slot in general, the shooting, and the grind for territory (its overwhelming at first but repetitive overtime; even though i understand why they let u do it but they should of make more aspects on taking brackets and businesses on taking it) Look at the godfather games, especially 2. You walk into a business and it lets u 1 bring in one of your mafisco into the job of taking a bracket (bruiser is there to take out thugs as arson blow up the place. In godfather 2, it makes it fun on how you take over a business. Hell you can even take out your own family too. That's basically the main aspect i wished they put into mafia 3 by being inspired from past mafia genre games
@Sean Price It probably would have been better if they didn't rely on the racket system. Because you only get snippets of a good story but then it gets interrupted by the gameplay which you have to do in order to get back to the story. I think it could have really been a great one, but it was decent the way it was. Mafia two was good, but for me, it is a tie between 2 & the original. both had characters you felt for and got to know as they entered and grew within their families. We never really got to know Lincoln in his family before they are wiped out, which I think is a key element missing.
BobHolly sorry but I disagree the story is amazing the racket missions play into the main story itself yess repetitive but doesn’t take you away from the story granted a lot has been cut out from the game but the story was amazing Lincoln wasn’t some boring brute he had a personality and a character Sal Marcano was a great villain who had a reason the question of morality is Lincoln turning into the very thing he hates and you spent enough time with Lincoln and the black mob to get a better understanding of there relationship granted they cut out a lot of stuff but the relationship and family is still there and plus each of the underbosses were dope and had a reason so Lincoln and his new bordeaux commission with his underbooses grew throughout the story especially if you did the side missions and found out certain things about them.
The city is most alive in mafia 3 there are open buildings bars restaurants there will be none of this In mafia remake no back up to call in shoot outs
I really enjoyed the cars, driving and the music. Perfect setting for my liking. It’s just a shame that with all the repetitive missions, bugs and the poor performance on console
Here it is 2022 and just playing and i love it to be honest. I don’t have any issues i see people talk about. It’s a lot of busy work, but that doesn’t bother me. Combat is too easy, but all the little story bits are great. Lincoln Clay is a great character to me
I played this when it first came out, years ago. Having never played mafia 1 or 2, I didn’t know what to expect, I didn’t hate this game, I just couldn’t finish it because the missions we’re soooo repetitive and I just found myself bored and had better games to play.
People who hate Mafia 3, have never played Mafia 3 before Edit: (Sorry if this is offensive towards you non Mafia 3 lovers i respect your opinions, we all have different opinions on games)
I couldn't stand III purely because of the sheer amount of padding. If it was structured as cleanly as the DLC was, I'd have absolutely no complaints, but the fact that it makes up 60% of the base game as it is is unforgivable.
Daniel Jack I agree, as a Mafia 3 player, it was pretty good, they just looked at videos, meanwhile my gameplay was pretty ok, only like 3 glitches and 4 bugs.
There was just something about blasting around in vintage cars to Vietnam era tunes. It influenced me enough to buy an older late 60s car and make a Playlist to jam to while wearing period correct clothing lol its the ultimate cosplay lol
Best dialogue in the series. The soundtrack is second to none. The plot makes you want to play more, and I like the weapons. The muscle cars are awesome to handle as well. We can't deny it was a massively buggy mess on release, though. It was nearly unplayable with all of the glitches and optimization issues. The other downside is that it feels more like an Ubisoft game.
I really wish that the missions weren't so grindy and rinse and repeat, because literally every other aspect of this game is amazing! Mafia 3 has to have the best soundtrack of all time, the world is so immersive and perfect, and the story is truly great. I think that if the mission structure could have been re-done, you would truly have the best Mafia game and one of the best games of all time. If there is a Mafia 4, hopefully Hangar 13 will have learned its lesson and really do it right. With a 70s or 80s setting I think they could really make a great game, pull some inspiration from Goodfellas, and close out the franchise right.
I'm pretty sure the mod you mentioned is called the NoF*****gGrind Mod. I remember using it when the game first came out, however I don't know if it has been updated for the DE.
I enjoyed Mafia III for what it was, although it's hard to shake the feeling of what it could've been...and I'm not talking major changes or anything, just small adjustments to the formula and some added features here and there. That being said, more than anything, it gave me hope that H13 would get the opportunity to do right by the franchise in the future, and I'm really hoping Mafia:DE can be that showcase of what the studio(s) are capable of, and that we can see this franchise continue on and on with many new entries which both tow the line of great narrative experiences, while also expanding some of the horizons to create a more fully-realized open world that stands in addition to the story; rather than being the extent of it like in Mafia III. For all it's fault, I still think it's one of the most artistically beautiful games ever made...New Bordeaux was stunning and felt authentic. Cars were fantastic (aside from broken sounds and the fact that we couldn't own/customize all cars in the game). The core mechanics were fantastic, in my mind, and really fit the character and setting to a T.
I think the best attention to detail in this game is the way the automatic gearboxes in cars work. If you give it full throttle, the car will kick down to the lowest gear and if you accelerate steadily it will change lower in the Rev range. Only game in its league that has done this to my knowledge.
It's the worst of the 3, but that doesn't make it a bad game. Mafia 1-2 were gems. Hard to beat. My only real issue with Mafia 3 was that it lost the identy and immersion of the first two. It was a great gangster game, but not necessarily a great Mafia game.
I will say that it makes sense to go back to the particular places and re-clear them because you are literally knocking out that racket to lure the bigger fish to that location. Although it would be cool if that varied in the sense that, depending on their personality, they might go to that racket to investigate or surface at a base of operations to go and take them out.
The story is fantastic and you can skip a lot of the side quest the mission at the carnival is one of my favorites... and when you walk through the Clown's mouth it says something it's so good
How can people say an open world game with stupidly repetitive gameplay and a huge open world that lacks anything to do in, a good game? Clearing out the districts is some of the most monotonous gameplay I've experienced in years
I totally understand the repetitive content being a negative, and I don't want to apologize for Hanger 13 too much, but the thing is that the gameplay is so damn fun to play around with that.
Sooo... Me and vito Went after grecco, either vito wouldnt shot the enemies but behind me or just teleport to somewhere, and Shooting tires is dumb most of the time the wheels would pop before the wooden ramp....
Played and beat mafia 2 loved it .. started this game a few days ago and I'm enjoying it but admittedly I'm more excited for mafia 1 definitive edition and I'll most likely switch over to it when it releases and come back to mafia 3 when I platinum Mafia 1
I really liked it, finished it twice, want to play it again does that make me fucked up?😂😂😂, Mafia 3 also is the longest one out the 3 games am sure and the DLC missions are sick
I played through this game last month. I ran into some bugs and had 2 crashes but at the end of my play through I was satisfied. I loved the mature revenge story, the voice acting, the cutscenes, the gameplay which made me feel like the punisher, I loved that they used his training in psychological warfare to allow for brutal kills. I absolutely adored the soundtrack I mean there’s seriously not one song in the game I don’t like, and like you said the, the details. I loved that in the low income or minority populated areas the police are slower to respond and the dispatcher has this “whatever” attitude whereas if you do something bad in a white or rich section of town they take you as seriously as a heart attack. I loved the driving and I actually think the vehicular combat felt right. Bottom line is yes, while the game is repetitive what game isn’t if you think about it, It’s a fun game.
Bro this is such a good game though. I love this game world. The era. The music. It's so gorgeous. I wish it was more robust with more to do, sure. But damn it's beautiful.
Definitely not justified abunch losers dislike the fact you play as strong black man that mows down people who look like them and say the same kind of shit they say behind closed doors of course, as opposed to playing as a generic white man like most of them which is the go to for most game devs which makes sense from a fiscal perspective, Mafia 3 is a diamond in the rough.
Hello guys, can someone tell why I do not have this outfits, Vitos leather jacket, and Tommy’s suit?? I bought the trilogy but i do not have them on my wardrobe
Good video but my question is when you change outfits in the game does he still have the same outfit in the cutscenes that was one of my issues with the one in 2016

I really loved how they had the balls to depict an accurate depiction of what society was like for black people then. Especially when a lot of people don’t like to face the truth.

Yes it's very good game problem is their title which didn't suit to this what Mafia Games used to be. Titles when you play as mobster as Tomy and Vito were and Lincoln Clay doesn't suit to be mobster of any kind. He is absolutly bad ass who cannot match absolutly any mobster what is obvious casue he is former spec ops soldier with Vietnam war tour but he dosent fi to game about Mafia and mobster.. I think whould be better if they make it as different Ip which could be connetced with Mafia universe but shouldn't be sell as next Mafia game
@Austin Batton yes it is but it's quite different than previous games
I always liked this game, not as much as 1 and 2, but it’s a good game
Play it on console and you’ll wish you hadn’t

I play on Xbox and seriously the only time the game acted up was ironically after they put in the Definitive Edition stuff.
Yes

"Make the right choice here and I'll whip up some fresh bucatini for you" - Vito Scaletta, 1968
Fresh bucatini is so good. :)
yeah hearing Vito talking did bring me some nostalgia
I've always been jealous that I don't have a cool accent like you LOL.
I had high expectations from Mafia 3 as I've been a HUGE Mafia 2 fan since release day in 2010. However when it did release in 2016 I was let down by the repetitive nature of the game. Albeit the cutscenes at the end of the chapters were really amazing. I loved how they also implemented Vito into the game. Because I never gave it a chance after I rushed through the story - partially because I got bored of it but also was going through a weird time in life - I never got the full experience. I think a lot of fans can relate. Because in retrospect there's so many things about this game I never experienced but have seen in videos. Like secret areas, beta content, things like that. It is a shame that just like Mafia 2, Mafia 3 has so much unused content that never made it to the final release.
That said, the soundtrack, atmosphere, and so much about Mafia 3 is very nostalgic to me. It takes me back to a time in October 2016 when I was going through what I though was a major health scare, beginning of a 2.5 year relationship with my now ex-girlfriend, and a time of change in my life as an 18 almost 19 year old dude. Looking back, I think it was an amazing game. I've always wanted to replay it, but for some reason because of the personal reasons I listed above. My mind associates this game with a weirdly, negatively, positive time in my life and it makes my stomach hurt thinking about it. Super weird I know. But that's the power of video games haha. I'm so excited to experience the new/old MAFIA. I played it way back in 2004 but as a 7 year old kid never got the full experience. I made it a couple missions in and never played it again and returned it to Blockbuster because it was too hard for me (that's what she said).
What you doing here go back to gta

HOL up what are you doing here
How did you get here?
You don’t belong here
I like Mafia 3, it wasnt the best but it wasnt the worst
For me:
Negatives: Repetitivness, some glitches And the mirrors
Positives: driving, combat, stealth, story, music and Vito
you're not being objective. the driving and stealth sucks. collision physics are non-existent, and you can stand right in front of enemies and they won't even notice you.
Mr.Lardexius The driving was the same from mafia 2 thats why the driving was good in Mafia 3
@Mr. House how incredibly sad
@Mr. House I thought I killed you!?
Mirrors is a graphic issue, and I could care less about graphics.
I hate it when good games go underappreciated and this is definitely one of those games.
It’s because it’s part of a franchise with even better games (for their time). As a standalone game it isn’t bad.
beacuse it was political shit
Can you please tell me where are you from?
Preach it my guy! I can totally agree, this game was certainly looked over, and it's a shame cause Lincoln's story is so resonating and relatable in certain aspects and I am sad that it got swept under the radar.
You are a simp. 😂
This game is actually so good and they had some of the best DLC’s ever
Stones Unturned was a LEGENDARY experience!
Rebuilding the Bar in Signs of The Times was Fun too.
Honestly, I shamelessly adore this game. I bought it as the bundle with the other two mafia games and I just adore every piece of it. The story is so good. Classic revenge story and Lincoln is such a bad ass. I think Hangar 13 did a great job and I will continue to support the company.
I just don't think the repetitive nature of the missions is really all that bad. You never have to complete every side mission to continue with the story so it gives you, the player, a lot of choice on how to proceed. You can vary things up or do the same thing over and over until you finish damaging rackets. Hangar 13 leaves so much to the player and just gives you the tools you need to complete every objective you choose.
I think a lot of people just forgot how to make their own fun in games. They expect the game to tell them how to have fun rather than creatively seek out ways to make the game a blast. And I believe Mafia 3 really nails that player agency. You have so many choices. Sure you can do it all the same way every time but then why not just watch a movie or show?
This is a truly open and well-made world with a lot of unscripted free-form missions. You can make your own fun and it's been a long time since I've had this much fun playing a video game.
I like the money grinding aspect and driving and the boss system in this game especially though I need something like this in another game, a game with shadow of war's nemesis system of mob bosses in mafia 4 would be a nice game
@Willie Brazell While I can't deny that, maybe, some didn't like Lincoln was colored. I wouldn't say that is the reason entirely. The game says in the opening he isn't even African American. He's mixed. Something like Dominican and Italian. So he's technically still white, if that's true. He just has a darker skin tone. He identified as colored though because people were too ignorant to see the difference in the past and that's actually pretty realistic.
yes Lincoln is such a bad ass as any mobster coldn't be nor Tommy nor Vito, but Lincoln made me wonder is real Mafia game what I'm playing ??? This game real is called Mafii??I't was my impression and misleading title. I expected to play story of some mobster. And get story about bou who was fucked by mafia but he wasn't and could not be any mobster.
@@piotrmackowiak9636 Tommy and Vito were Italian so they had actual opportunity in the Mafia. They could be made men. Lincoln was considered colored and although he was in the black mob under Sammy, he could never be made. Because no one, I think not even he, considered himself Italian. Or even considered that he was. The only one who mentions he could be part italian is Father James and that was only speculation, really.
Lincoln was still a badass tho. He had personality. The only protagonist that comes close is Tommy. Vito was pretty bland, although he was a hothead.
@@rpglife7268 yes and Lincol doesn't suit to be protagonist of game which is called Maffia and for me Mafia it's Italian mob not any other mob. Russian mob i would not call Mafia. And I think the whole Mafia 3 problem is that a whole plot dosen't suit to the title what it's uses. But yes in my country i see tendency to call Mafia any organized crime organizations what it's not true.
Mafia 3 gunplay is bloody awsome and so underrated , mafia 3 problem was repeative missions and having a huge world with nothing to do in it , im glad they bring gunplay in mafia 1 remake , i hope mafia 1 remake gets metharic higher than 78 +
CONNOR and mafia 3 story was great I personally didn’t mind the repetition but I see what you mean.
Did they actually add bullet holes in the definitive edition? The second game actually showed entry and exit wounds on people you shot, but when I first tried this game, it was just generic trash textures. Really turned me off of the game.
i like mafia 3 for storyline but missions are soooo boring
The actual missions I really liked but 90% of the game was taking over the city which were so uninteresting you did the same thing over and over again.
Someone knows how the mod is called to skip the boring missions?
Agree
@Hennessy Father Except Saints Row 2 is a pretty awesome game. Once you get used to the gameplay atleast.
Same
I love Mafia 3 and hope Lincoln will get to cameo in Mafia 4 in some capacity as is the series' tradition.
You should do a video on the DLCs as well.
After upgrading to the definitive edition I went straight for the DLCs as soon as I could.
The “Sign of the Times” is hands down my favourite and it’s one of the best gaming experiences I’ve had in quite a while.
Yeah, Signs of the Times is great. It also adds a great money sink into the game - renovation, baby 😀 I hated the game when it came out but now, playing the definitive edition, I simply can't stop.
Without too many spoilers, I will say that there’s a scene where you escape some kind of LSD-ridden bar/club, and when I played it, White Room by Cream just started blaring as I shot my way out. Genuinely one of my top 10 favorite moments in gaming I’ve ever experienced. What a god-tier DLC
The thing is, when I first played the series I binged all three back to back and Mafia 3 was the one I enjoyed the most
You get more interesting conversations if you sneak up on criminals. If you use the WeMod program you can go "undetected" and hear boss conversation you normally never would. ( it also has a lot of handy mods as well ) About 50% of the reason I like this game so much is the music.
As a long time Mafia fan, I got this game right when it came out and way majorly disappointed. It just didn't feel like a Mafia game. I came back to it a couple years later in 2020 and fell in love with the setting and the story. Yes the mission structure is very repetitive and annoying, but the open world, the story, and characters were really well done. The level of detail in the world and how NPCs react to your actions is superb. Can't wait for the Mafia 1 remake.
Title: Defending Mafia 3
Game in Description: Mafia 2
hahahaaha so funny not u are
UA-cam's algorithms and shit are out of whack in fairness.. When I did a letsplay of Friday The 13th.. the automatic tag picked it up as Five Nights At Freddies for some reason.. and it took me forever to change it as they literally had the Friday The 13th game tagged as "Fri13" ... >.>
It's almost like there is a Mafia 2 Definitive Edition recently released that the game publishers want to sell and pay UA-cam to add to the description of any related game.
Whoda thunk it?
A note about the stealth mechanics; imo, the main reason the stealth is so heavily focused on is exclusively because of the protagonist's backstory. He had fought in Vietnam, and only recently came back. It would make sense for a hardened soldier to approach things in a manner that was similar to what he experienced during wartime. I feel this is most heavily made apparent in the 'river' mission. The way the protag goes about his business in the ending minutes of that particular mission sort of play especially into his backstory's strengths.
Sorry for being really vague, but I like avoiding spoilers. Those that have played the game more than halfway will likely know what I'm referring to, and those that haven't might decide to down the road. :P
Edit: Typos, typos everywhere.
I’m replaying Mafia 3 because when I first played it didn’t finished it.. but man… I missed so much of this game! i’ve been having ana amazing time playing it! it’s a great game with a great story
Mafia III?
Love the soundtrack, hate the repetitive missions. It was the DLCs that kept me playing and finish the game...
Thank you Sexy Biscuit for another video! 🙂
After finishing the game and all the dlc as well as nearly unlocking all achievements and completing all side activities I think this is actually a real fucking good game that's worth playing
Lol yeah it's honestly a hidden gem I consider it a masterpiece, Lol.
I just got it and I'm already in love with the story, the voice acting is on point. Great cast.
I pre-ordered this back in 2016 and their was no regrets when I did play it.
Apart from some visual bugs like odd bad lighting and half of the map around Sammy's bar having an invisible ground it wasnt bad i liked the story a bit tbh
Story I didnt mind at all, really enjoyed it. That early bar scene was pretty powerful & one of more memorable in series. Music amazing, world I didnt mind but the side fillers quests before main quest really took u out of the immersive mafia experience. Also hanger 13 mechanics just feel gamey. Gunplay, movement & interations just felt cheap & snappy hard to explain. Altho the wounded enemies almost made up for it, every game shld show the effects of people getting shot, adds a lot of weight to your actions at least for me
I’m gonna disagree with you on the gunplay and movements thats the best especially the gunplay because it was so satisfying and I loved how it feels when shooting it.
@@vishansilva8546 there were moments it felt satisfying, definitly luved the wounded enemies & shotguns felt good. I felt it catered bit too much to shooter combat tho just with animations, movement, weapon pickups etc. From memory after u were in walk mode & went out of it for quick run, it didnt return to walk & had to hit key again. Simple things like that. Im more methodical gamer with movement & prefer mechanics leaning bit more that way. But that would fustrate a lot of people im sure lol
It's about DAMN time my friend. It's not the games fault in my opinion I think it got a bad shack Hanger 13 basically had 2 years to redo this game with a limited budget.
No it's not Mafia 2 are 1 but for what it is, it is a good game. Great No but good pretty good.
now you have remake of prevous one too so now you can compare
Soundtrack was one of gamings best. I loved the radio stations.
Story was great but too much grind.
Brian Thorpe Agreed, the new Bordeaux OST has a vibe.
Loved this game soundtrack and characters
Main Warhorse concept artist M.Podprocky also worked on Mafia 3 art. He also designed face of Joe Barbaro. Lot of Warhorse guys worked on Mafia 3. But then they started to work on KCD.
This game, is the perfect example of what GTA 5 story mode should have been. My only complaint is the repetitiveness, but every thing else is gold. Don't disappoint me rockstar with gta 6
I bet your complaints about GTA V are the same as mines.
GTA 5 story was great i have finished it multiple times.
cherb23 gta 5 story was terrible
No problems with GTA V here, but I uninstalled this Mafia game after 2 hours of playing.
Lukáš Kubinec mafia 3 >> gta 5
I'm at the start of this game but so far it looks interesting and looks quite good on PS5.
I was actually living in New Orleans when this game came out and to see the city and the surrounding area faithfully recreated both in the environment and ATMOSPHERE, I was pretty thrilled
Try playing Godfather the Don's Edition/Blackhand. Mafia 3 essentially tries to replicate the Godfathers structure and fails.
it even borrows the execution mechanic. That's why I say M3 is more of a Godfather sequel than anything
I was really exited when The Godfather came out after having played Mafia 1&2, but it was so repetetive that I never finished it. I never ended up buying Mafia 3, firstly because I would have had to upgrade my PC, but then also because of the bad reviews. I now do own it since I bought the trilogy for a big discount while I was only looking to buy the DE, so I guess I could try the story mod Bisquit mentioned.
@@johnbakker4828 hence I suggested Don's edition or black hand the original game is a bit repetitive. In the Don's edition for e.g. each family has a different compound( interior and exterior) there are many new rackets and fronts many of which have had their interior changed but the best part was you could see the family tree in toms report and as you did the hits they would get rubbed out also you could now have upto 5 guys follow you around which was gangster as hell.
This. Feels closer to The Godfather 2 game since its so unfinished
Finally someone who gets it. All the people saying that M3 is similar to GTA (?!) when in reality it is a copy of The Godfather.
Really great vid! You actually just taught me something lmao and I'm replaying Mafia 3 for a second time already! I didn't know you can do the charged up attack right away, always mashed 3 punch combo, and then charged. So good, I'd call it actual journalism.
i replayed the PS4 version not too long ago and it was raining , before requesting a car some NPC said "ugh this goddamn rain!"
This game really shines most when avoiding the slow stealth whistle option it gives you. I personally almost never have a silenced weapon on me and i love going really agressive and fast with the stealth takedowns until eventually they find out i am there and i bust out the loud stuff. Makes things flow more dynamically in these big base of operations takedowns that get old quick if you just cheese through them.
THIS! A lot of people complaining about Open-World gameplay usually exploit the game's mechanics and don't "create the fun" themselves.
This video made my day after my pc broke and a lot of other bad luck.
I love Mafia 3 despite it being buggy, unpolished and the mission layout being boring and repetitive, but I can’t wait for Mafia Definitive Edition which I think will become my new favourite Mafia game, I really can’t wait to get the Mafia Trilogy where I’ll be playing all three Mafia games as part of my Mafia Marathon. 👍🏻
Did it because I'm thinking bout getting the trilogy
i lke how the enemy don't die after some shots they still be on the ground hurt and shit, i like that detail
I’ve seen very little games that have actual storefront interiors (not pasted on window photos.) It’s such a simple yet coveted thing for me in an open world game like this
Isaac Badell-Riviere It’s a bit hard to code, trust me, I’ve tried it.
There is nothing to defend. It's a great game.
same, one the best open world games ever, and probably the best city in any game
I really liked this game, they tried something different there was definitely some tedious things but overall enjoyable game to play. I liked what they did with Mafia 2. They should do something in Mafia 4 and maybe use actual historical events with Gotti etc. Maybe hire Michael Franzese get some cool ideas
I remember that in Frankie Potts files Al Capone ,Lucky Luciano and Johnny Torrio were mentioned ,and the same with Capone in Mafia III and Mafia De,so yeah would cool see more historical characters, H13 did a great job with the historical context in Mafia III and De ,remember me AC but with the old America.
Great review, Roxy! I just played through the game myself and I still have one DLC to get through, the main story has been completed. The game definitely doesn't deserve the amount of hate that it gets. I agree that it gets repetitive after a while, but so does The Godfather: The Game when you have to take over and extort fronts and rackets, but here you actually have to earn your way through them. So that can sort of get annoying when you want to progress through the game. And the fact that missions are non-linear, it feels like there's little structure to it, but then at the same time it gives you the option to freeride but also to complete missions when you want to. I mean you barely even scratched the surface of this game and how awesome it really is. It really does immerse you in the late 60s and it's actually good for someone like me who wasn't born until the 80s, to understand that time period and the late that went on during those times. Even the KKK appears in the game. So it was a bold but right move on Hangar 13's part. It was history, it's how things took place. Not acknowledging it doesn't change the fact that it happened. I bought the Trilogy even though I already owned Mafia 2 which converted to Definitive Edition for free because I wanted to pre-order the new Mafia remake but also check out Mafia 3 since I felt that the new game style may sort of carry over to the remake. I've been avoiding Mafia 3 for so long but now I'm glad I played it. Yes, it certainly had some bugs and glitches, but overall it is a fun game! It's fun to get the armored truck from the Vehicle Delivery service provided by Burke and get it up to speed and start smashing into other cars. It's all a lot of fun. And anyone who doesn't like John Donovan...needs to get outta here!
A comprehensive video. Excellent work.
Vito is only connection which lead us to conclude that is real Mafia Game
It's a good game, I'm enjoying it, the music is amazing, the cars are cool and the driving rocks. It can be repetitive, but all games can be. I prefer it to mafia 2.
Pistols aren't weak. They punch like crazy
I always really liked this game, I in no way deny that the mission structure was incredibly dull and repetitive but I love literally every other aspect of the game, the story, the voice acting, the music, the world and time period, and more.
I also love mafia 1 and 2 , that goes without saying, their heavily story-driven campaign structure with a rich variety of mission types were amazing to play, however I feel that in regards to their open worlds, they are at a really large loss compared to Mafia 3. Outside the main campaign, you are left with a beautiful and interesting world... with nothing to do besides collectibles and secrets.
I reckon if Hangar 13 were able to combine the structure of Mafia 1 and 2's campaigns in regards to their mission variety, and Mafia 3's open world with it's interactivity and additional content (Gang turfs, Racket control, etc.), we could see a really awesome Mafia 4 if we are lucky enough to get one.
I never really understood why this game was received so poorly I mean sure the graphics could’ve been a bit better in some aspects of the city but the story was top notch and they nailed the setting of 1960s New Orleans
Mafia 3 has a lot of major problems, from gameplay to bugs and glitches to the dead city and repetitive missions, It was an ok game but not worthy of the name Mafia at all.
Both mafia 1 and 2 have dead and barren cities. Not to mention the infamous glare bug in mafia 2 where the sun will literally oversaturate the game and crash it
@@vagrantender Mafia 1 and 2 aimed for a linear exprience unlike Mafia 3
Taxi Driver but your argument is invalid. Their is way more life in mafia 3s city then even in GTA V’s
@@vagrantender That's a joke right? have u even seen mafia 3's city bro lol
@@taxidriver2093 don't know what you're talking about.... There are talking pedestrians, lot of cars, restaurants and shops, what more do you want?
i love the soundtrack, & main story
Spicy Salt Agreed.
Mafia 3 was my first one and I just received my pre order of mafia 1 yesterday, such a great game so far, I missed it the first time and love experiencing it for the first time.
I liked it, but I wish they'd fix the damn trophy glitches. I've got 1 left now for over 2 years, when you have to kill all racket bosses, but after 4 playthroughs, it still needs to be fixed.
Petrified Toaster agreed. I killed SPOILER ALERT
Sal Marcano but didn’t get the trophy.
yeah i gave up as well such a glitchy game
Whenever I was driving around appreciating the ambience, something just broke down and reminded me how unoptimized it is. Most often the pedestrians throw themselves in front of my car...
That happens in The Godfather game a lot
I love Mafia 3 one of my favourites
I played through this like 10 times lol, honestly I just hate how many cops spawn right when you get caught XD
The UnchartedWolf LMAO
As a game such as mafia 3, i understand that its underrated. The only downfall i see is having only 1 save slot in general, the shooting, and the grind for territory (its overwhelming at first but repetitive overtime; even though i understand why they let u do it but they should of make more aspects on taking brackets and businesses on taking it)
Look at the godfather games, especially 2. You walk into a business and it lets u 1 bring in one of your mafisco into the job of taking a bracket (bruiser is there to take out thugs as arson blow up the place. In godfather 2, it makes it fun on how you take over a business. Hell you can even take out your own family too. That's basically the main aspect i wished they put into mafia 3 by being inspired from past mafia genre games
Don’t be fooled I was there
Hahaha
The good - the story, characters, etc
The bad - the repetitive “taking over rackets” etc
The ulgy - lincons brutal kills😂
take-downs are Scary it feels like friday the 13
not gonna lie
Sean Price so does Mafia TLCOH. Mafia 2 has to be 1#. Mafia 1 in #2, Mafia 3 in #3, I mean, Mafia 3 was pretty decent
@Sean Price It probably would have been better if they didn't rely on the racket system. Because you only get snippets of a good story but then it gets interrupted by the gameplay which you have to do in order to get back to the story. I think it could have really been a great one, but it was decent the way it was. Mafia two was good, but for me, it is a tie between 2 & the original. both had characters you felt for and got to know as they entered and grew within their families.
We never really got to know Lincoln in his family before they are wiped out, which I think is a key element missing.
Sean Price mafia 3 is a great story you tripping.
BobHolly sorry but I disagree the story is amazing the racket missions play into the main story itself yess repetitive but doesn’t take you away from the story granted a lot has been cut out from the game but the story was amazing Lincoln wasn’t some boring brute he had a personality and a character Sal Marcano was a great villain who had a reason the question of morality is Lincoln turning into the very thing he hates and you spent enough time with Lincoln and the black mob to get a better understanding of there relationship granted they cut out a lot of stuff but the relationship and family is still there and plus each of the underbosses were dope and had a reason so Lincoln and his new bordeaux commission with his underbooses grew throughout the story especially if you did the side missions and found out certain things about them.
The acting in this game is one of the best aspects of it for me
The city is most alive in mafia 3 there are open buildings bars restaurants there will be none of this In mafia remake no back up to call in shoot outs
That subtle Wassup at the Doctor Who phone booth.
*clicks tongue* Noice.
I love the handling in this game
I really enjoyed the cars, driving and the music. Perfect setting for my liking. It’s just a shame that with all the repetitive missions, bugs and the poor performance on console
Here it is 2022 and just playing and i love it to be honest. I don’t have any issues i see people talk about. It’s a lot of busy work, but that doesn’t bother me. Combat is too easy, but all the little story bits are great. Lincoln Clay is a great character to me
I played this when it first came out, years ago. Having never played mafia 1 or 2, I didn’t know what to expect, I didn’t hate this game, I just couldn’t finish it because the missions we’re soooo repetitive and I just found myself bored and had better games to play.
People who hate Mafia 3, have never played Mafia 3 before
Edit: (Sorry if this is offensive towards you non Mafia 3 lovers i respect your opinions, we all have different opinions on games)
No it's the other way around. That's why they hate the game.
I couldn't stand III purely because of the sheer amount of padding. If it was structured as cleanly as the DLC was, I'd have absolutely no complaints, but the fact that it makes up 60% of the base game as it is is unforgivable.
Daniel Jack I agree, as a Mafia 3 player, it was pretty good, they just looked at videos, meanwhile my gameplay was pretty ok, only like 3 glitches and 4 bugs.
Got the trilogy for cheap. I am currently playing mafia 2 (finished the Mafia 1 Remake) and I love it so far. I am really looking forward to Mafia 3!
Lincoln looks so much like Bumpy Johnson while wearing Tommy's suít.
There was just something about blasting around in vintage cars to Vietnam era tunes. It influenced me enough to buy an older late 60s car and make a Playlist to jam to while wearing period correct clothing lol its the ultimate cosplay lol
Best dialogue in the series. The soundtrack is second to none. The plot makes you want to play more, and I like the weapons. The muscle cars are awesome to handle as well. We can't deny it was a massively buggy mess on release, though. It was nearly unplayable with all of the glitches and optimization issues. The other downside is that it feels more like an Ubisoft game.
I really wish that the missions weren't so grindy and rinse and repeat, because literally every other aspect of this game is amazing! Mafia 3 has to have the best soundtrack of all time, the world is so immersive and perfect, and the story is truly great. I think that if the mission structure could have been re-done, you would truly have the best Mafia game and one of the best games of all time. If there is a Mafia 4, hopefully Hangar 13 will have learned its lesson and really do it right. With a 70s or 80s setting I think they could really make a great game, pull some inspiration from Goodfellas, and close out the franchise right.
I'm pretty sure the mod you mentioned is called the NoF*****gGrind Mod. I remember using it when the game first came out, however I don't know if it has been updated for the DE.
I dont know about y’all, but I could go for a livestream
J Owen Go ahead.
I enjoyed Mafia III for what it was, although it's hard to shake the feeling of what it could've been...and I'm not talking major changes or anything, just small adjustments to the formula and some added features here and there. That being said, more than anything, it gave me hope that H13 would get the opportunity to do right by the franchise in the future, and I'm really hoping Mafia:DE can be that showcase of what the studio(s) are capable of, and that we can see this franchise continue on and on with many new entries which both tow the line of great narrative experiences, while also expanding some of the horizons to create a more fully-realized open world that stands in addition to the story; rather than being the extent of it like in Mafia III. For all it's fault, I still think it's one of the most artistically beautiful games ever made...New Bordeaux was stunning and felt authentic. Cars were fantastic (aside from broken sounds and the fact that we couldn't own/customize all cars in the game). The core mechanics were fantastic, in my mind, and really fit the character and setting to a T.
I think the best attention to detail in this game is the way the automatic gearboxes in cars work. If you give it full throttle, the car will kick down to the lowest gear and if you accelerate steadily it will change lower in the Rev range. Only game in its league that has done this to my knowledge.
It's the worst of the 3, but that doesn't make it a bad game. Mafia 1-2 were gems. Hard to beat.
My only real issue with Mafia 3 was that it lost the identy and immersion of the first two. It was a great gangster game, but not necessarily a great Mafia game.
I will say that it makes sense to go back to the particular places and re-clear them because you are literally knocking out that racket to lure the bigger fish to that location. Although it would be cool if that varied in the sense that, depending on their personality, they might go to that racket to investigate or surface at a base of operations to go and take them out.
Thanks for this video.
Hangar 13 worked on mafia definitive edition also. And i feel alot they used some mafia 3 in the game
The story is fantastic and you can skip a lot of the side quest the mission at the carnival is one of my favorites... and when you walk through the Clown's mouth it says something it's so good
Never understood hate to this game. Honestly i played 1 and 3 and this was miles better. Great vid
Love u Roxy ❤️
How can people say an open world game with stupidly repetitive gameplay and a huge open world that lacks anything to do in, a good game? Clearing out the districts is some of the most monotonous gameplay I've experienced in years
I totally understand the repetitive content being a negative, and I don't want to apologize for Hanger 13 too much, but the thing is that the gameplay is so damn fun to play around with that.
Yes exactly 100% your literally the Terminator in Mafia 3, some people just don't get it dude. Godspeed.
Sooo... Me and vito Went after grecco, either vito wouldnt shot the enemies but behind me or just teleport to somewhere, and Shooting tires is dumb most of the time the wheels would pop before the wooden ramp....
for mafia 3 it was almost perfect I loved the story the characters the cutscenes the music everything was great except for mediocre gameplay
I've been with you since your first few weeks. this is a bold move and I love it. keep grinning man it will pay off. always loved your kcd videos
I played mafia 3 for a few hours and found it repetitive, But roxy u have convinced me to give it another go👍
You won’t regret it.
Played and beat mafia 2 loved it .. started this game a few days ago and I'm enjoying it but admittedly I'm more excited for mafia 1 definitive edition and I'll most likely switch over to it when it releases and come back to mafia 3 when I platinum Mafia 1
i always loved this game man, it would be great if lincoln had customization like clothes and hair cuts like gta
As someone who's spent 4 years living in New Orleans, I can confirm that the sky (especially during sunsets) actually does look like that lol
mafia 3 original was full of game breaking bugs, and 30 fps limmiter but DE added all dlcs for free and tommys and vitos cars and suits
I really liked it, finished it twice, want to play it again does that make me fucked up?😂😂😂, Mafia 3 also is the longest one out the 3 games am sure and the DLC missions are sick
I actually like mafia 3, the story is heart warming, the gun/combat system is amazing and driving aswell, and I liked the trailer of mafia 3
I played through this game last month. I ran into some bugs and had 2 crashes but at the end of my play through I was satisfied. I loved the mature revenge story, the voice acting, the cutscenes, the gameplay which made me feel like the punisher, I loved that they used his training in psychological warfare to allow for brutal kills. I absolutely adored the soundtrack I mean there’s seriously not one song in the game I don’t like, and like you said the, the details. I loved that in the low income or minority populated areas the police are slower to respond and the dispatcher has this “whatever” attitude whereas if you do something bad in a white or rich section of town they take you as seriously as a heart attack. I loved the driving and I actually think the vehicular combat felt right. Bottom line is yes, while the game is repetitive what game isn’t if you think about it, It’s a fun game.
Bro this is such a good game though. I love this game world. The era. The music. It's so gorgeous. I wish it was more robust with more to do, sure. But damn it's beautiful.
Definitely not justified abunch losers dislike the fact you play as strong black man that mows down people who look like them and say the same kind of shit they say behind closed doors of course, as opposed to playing as a generic white man like most of them which is the go to for most game devs which makes sense from a fiscal perspective, Mafia 3 is a diamond in the rough.
Hello guys, can someone tell why I do not have this outfits, Vitos leather jacket, and Tommy’s suit?? I bought the trilogy but i do not have them on my wardrobe
Great review
Good video but my question is when you change outfits in the game does he still have the same outfit in the cutscenes that was one of my issues with the one in 2016
