Mafia III

Imagine the same studio, with a big budget, being able to do a Vegas era game set in the 70s, with the asthetics of Scorcese's Casino film.

But no, these fuckwits waste millions on social signalling instead.

wow it's like making uninteresting games shitting on people playing videogames isn't a viable business practice. it is but you have to pretend you're not doing just that

Good.
Hopefully the rest will follow the same fate.

As hard a nigger without affirmative action.

God fucking damn it, they shilled this piece of shit with social justice bullshit about racism only to pussy out over and over again, bet most of the money went towards those goddamn licensed songs. Fuck it, pissed enough as it is, posting the video.

And then they wonder why everyone says leftists are mentally ill.

Even Mr. Gold and Mr. Silver don't sicken me as much as this lot.

True, there's also this I didn't think about. But hell, it was still a really average production.

IIRC Joe's fate is explained a little more, he survives what happens at the end of Mafia 2, he escapes and hides in Chicago for a while but shortly after is betrayed by the people he was hiding with and he gets tortured and killed over a decade before Mafia 3 even happens.

They couldn't even get the mirrors to work right even with the huge budget. Fucking mirrors.

It astounds me they left that in the game. I guess they didn't want to have every mirror be conveniently broken.

Do you actually play as somebody from the mafia in this or is it just some gang?

The new devs love fucking with people.

They had to pay for reparations! #Uhuru
Game written by a failed comic book writer and directed by white guilt.

Is that really in game?

At least they managed too make the ai somewhat realistic…

It's the first thing you get when you start the game.

The more you watch webm related the more fucked up it becomes

This game was even that much poozed
The niggers were basically vilains and your guy is a white guy that happens to have a dark skin , even his voice is from a white guy.

The most sjw thing about the game was all the homosexuals, and the best girl in the game being a fucking lesbian.

Better than Mafia 2, the shooting is better than GTA V even.

I would take Dead Rising 4 and Mafia 3, reverse engineer the engines and merge them together. I wonder what will happen?

A shitty game, most likely.

Mafia II sucked shit. III's downfall was inevitable.

Love the irony of that..

How can people now see the double standard?>>12966068

It didn't. Normalfaggies ate it up.

WE

WUZ

KANGZ

kek, this cracked me up almost as much as down syndroma.

Except they didn't.
The game didn't even break one million units sold.

Pretty much this. One of the things that made Mafia II rather special was the fact that EVERYONE was racist, not just whitey. Black, Asian, Irish, whatever, everyone was racist to some extent. Hell most of the songs on the radio were racist.

Been pointing this out forever. They're often attacking their main demographics with these games while simultaneously making the game boring as shit. Of course it fails. I thought basic common sense was to pander to your market?

But the market is icky white, heterosexual men, user!

...

Funny, one of the articles linked say that Mafia 3 was the fastest selling of the entire franchise. Most likely a lie to save face.

MOM SAID IT'S MY TURN TO BE MAFIA

be creative user.

"fasting selling" means jack shit. A game could sell a hundred thousand copies in ten minutes then fall of the face of the earth and still be "fastest selling". The purposely misconstrue the data to say vague shit like that.

PRIM A SHIT

There was a glitch in this game that made me laugh. During the mission at the construction site if the cops are alerted they kept spawning in the center of the site but would hit an invisible roof above the area and would pile up at least 200 corpses before the game crashed. The game play was actually pretty enjoyable, otherwise the story was kinda boring

I like women with afro.

...

honestly if the game had an interesting plot about the actual mafia instead of stupid nigger shit and wasn't buggy as all hell it would have been at least mediocre instead of pure shit

Wew, now I want to see them not learn from their mistakes so I can stay smug for the next failure.

I said the same about Mafia II, but instead of nigger shit it was more something other than drive from point A to point B with an incredibly unlikeable protag in Vito. Joe, Henry et al all were far more interesting characters.

Mafia II onward was a mistake.

it seems like the south would have been an interesting place to have a mafia game as well
it seems like the overwhelming majority of them are just the same stereotypical shit in new york
have it be about them expanding their operation and moving into rural areas.
hell, set it during prohibition instead of the 60s and you might even be able to make it believable and historically accurate to a degree
bootlegging and shit, would have been much better than whatever the fuck it was that they puked out onto the market

Mafia II was a bad calculation.
It might've been saved with another Godfatheresque story, but instead it went with the Goodfellas narrative… only it didn't have the fun/adrenaline a goodfellasesque game should have.

M3 is obviously another bad calculation. This time they went the ubisoft sandboxy route, and seem to have got good mechanics. But it's low-interest, very niche story.
Um who gives a fuck. 50's/60s/70s were great American Mob periods with far more interesting stories to tell. You could even have kept a black guy (if you really wanted) but made him an 'associate'… instead of angry black man revenge against whitey gayness.

Otherwise, the game had almost nothing to do with the "Mafia", and shoulda just been given a new IP/Title. Shitty decision making all round.

Holy shit haha.

i was shocked to see during the (((steam))) sale that it was like 65% off or something ridiculous. for a AAA game released late last year that's gotta be bad

Didn't think that through did they

Could still be true. The first two, especially the first (PC only for 2 years and then the ports were shit), were much smaller games by a much smaller developer. Mafia 3 went full AAA must sell multi-million with huge ad budget

wwwwwwwwwwwwww

Do you like niggers?

it was "Fastest shipping" i think, i.e. sold to the stores

The biggest problem M2 has is that it made the Mafia BORING.

They showed Vito and Joe doing shit like slinging cigs and shaking guys down for money in CUTSCENES. You never actually get to do that.

Sure, there's bits of stuff you can do, but for the most part, it's point A to point B.

Vito has the personality of soggy cardboard. He has nothing going for him. He's a total pushover. The only time he ever gets interesting is when he's avenging his sister. Everything else makes you wish you could play as Joe or some shit.

At least Joe has a personality (sure, it's just "fuck everything that moves" degeneracy, but still). And don't get me started on Empire "open world for no real reason" Bay. They took the time to create an interesting setting and all you can do is "rob" stores? There's no side missions? Nothing?

I recieved Mafia II as a gift and after I beat it, I never played it again. At least the radio music and the menu theme are great. I'll give it that.

I never played M3, though. Had no interest after M2 turned out to be shit. But from what I've seen of M3, it's very good I never bothered with it.

It's Mass Effect all over again: the first game is okay, but everything after is pure cancer.

I don't think I'll ever understand how they made the MAFIA so fucking boring. Your ideas would've been far better.

I agree with you entirely. The problems with Mafia II are that it just underwhelms so much.

I can't stress how bad they fucked up with Vito. The guy is literally one of the most boring characters I've ever seen in a video game.

I see people romanticizing it, even M3's detractors, as something great and legendary and I'm like what game were you playing?

I said the same about Deus Ex: Mankind Divided when I saw it be on sale for like 75% off.

Didn't buy it, though. I've put it in the "likely shit" folder like I did Fallout 4 which I've also never played. A shame, because Deus Ex used to be my jam back in the day.

It's like every franchise I EVER had an interest in since I first started gaming got pozzed in some way.

That's what you get from hiring quotas.

Tell me about it. Work has been very slow the last week and steam had a summer sale so I visited a beloved tactical shooters of eons past.

Well fuck my life. Let's see what ever happened to Rainbow 6.

Someone just put a bullet in my brain.

Let's hope he is one himself.

Okay real talk. I don't hate black people.I work with them. Fine folks all.

I HATE FUCKING NIGGERS

Apparently being a goddamn ghetto ape is cool and hip and emancipating. Meanwhile lots of black people fight every day against their DNA and stereotype culture. They go to uni, get good jobs, go to the opera, eat at fancy restaurants, vote socially progressive, read newspapers, watch indie movies, go on vacation to Florence. They don't do meth. They don't knife people. But you'll never see them in videogames.

Listen here, you little shit.
You can't side with niggers, just because you encountered 3 or 5 that aren't complete sub humans. 95% of them are pure nigger filth.

...

Me too user. I just want to grab the mess of kinky hair on a nigress and use it as a grip to fuck her

Your description matches that of an average white normalfag. Your nigger friends that you worship are the same tier as average white folk. Think on that.
There are plenty of niggers in video games that aren't portrayed as pavement apes, which is much better than what they deserve.

I really liked Mafia 1 and 2, the fact that Mafia 3 is such a bastardization really chaps my ass. Especially since open world wise guy simulators are in such short supply.

OW
I FEEL GUD

Based on what?

Funny thing, if you finish the game with Cassandra (regardless of if you stay or leave) the city very quickly turns into detroit, Cassandra begins random murders and executions of anyone not following her, Cassandra herself also publicly murders politicians and cops that get in her way for no reason.

...

...

I'm okay with black chicks with afros. I think it looks cool. I hate black men fucking nigger dudes though.

Get some better takes

...

No user, you're obsessed with making out girls to be a man so you feel less guilty about your suppressed homosexuality.

She is growing a mustache you actual nigger.
Fag.

Whatever helps you sleep at night, homo.

Futa us a whole other ball game smartass.

Also, gyarus are the superior darker-skinned women.

I never said anything about futa. You guys are really reaching for reasons to bring up your homosex lifestyle.

please give me more

Digging your own grave here.

You first comment was
You didn't mention a mustache until later. Men have dicks, thus you projected a dick. You're a gay, user, you've just got to accept it. You'll be happier with your sad, degenerate life.

Get your eyes off the dicks and onto the ID's user.

>

Sorry, too many fags in here. Hard to keep track of you little scamps.

Face =/= mustache. What are you, Italian? This imageboard is for people.

Then stop posting niggers.

You have to be a person to post, user. You're stretching as much as you do when you're trying to be gay without accepting it. Shoo.

Vito is boring but isn't terrible. But it's as you said, there isn't the fun involved of being a "hustling" gangster in the 50s+. If we had him doing sidemissions and all the open-world stuff (his character would actually be doing), it would've worked ok.

The whole appeal of the gangster/criminal life is the adrenalin and living the good life… or else why the fuck would you do it.

The asthetics/atmosphere of the world were really nice though and still looks better than GTAV tbh. It makes it worth a playthrough.

It really depends. If the game had a budget of 10m then they don't need to sell a lot (maybe 1-2m copies) to break even. I think the game probably did break even. I think is bullshit because no doubt the majority of copies were sold on console and Steam alone has half a million copies sold, but the game wasn't the blockbuster success they expected.

Black women tend to look ugly as sin like men.

Please don't space your posts like that, it's a pain to read. I disagree, though, Mafia 2 was very immersive and enjoyable and I loved it.

How come most games with working mirrors are really good? All of those games you posted plus Swat 4 are amazing.

Go check the guys twitter, I dont know why they keep hiring these people.

It probably means the devs actually care about their game to add details that others would skip entirely because it's "unecessary".

Details can make or break anything.

Both are results of giving a fuck.

I'm personally astounded at the lighting in The Dark Mod, and that game runs on the Doom 3 engine. The way a green flame reflected on the eyesockets of a skeleton is pretty amazing. In SWAT 4 mirrors could be used as a tool in certain situations, most maps had one or two bathrooms, and a common spawn point was inside them, so you could see the enemy reflected in the mirror to take control of the situation.

The article got published within a few weeks of the game releasing. I'm sure it has sold more copies by now, but those have been heavily discounted. The game cost so much to make they needed to sell eight million copies at full price to break even, and like half as much on top of that to even approach profitable.

We got no idea if that was legit though. Could have been some Holla Forumsirgin just bullshitting for laughs.

AYO HOL UP

Trust me, that works out when dealing with normalfags.
