I play Hitman enthusiastically since Part 2 "Silent Assassin" and found every part brilliantly until then.
Because Hitman to date by its unlimited possibilities of solution level was simply unique.
In absolution, the makers have probably tried to change things by having replaced the look "third-person perspective" against this new "over the shoulder".
As with Max Payne example only that it looks better there and also works better.
(The left - go right).
The graph looks this time a bit darker and grainy and reminds me a bit, for example, to "Silent Hill".
The animations of the features of all the characters, for example are great, but the graphics might be a little better overall.
Likewise, lack a visible animation when "puts away weapon" ???
And big guns can so easily disappear into nothingness.
The acting incorrectly in so sophisticated games.
It has also been the view of the riflescope / sniper rifle unfortunately just "VersauNeut" !!!
Visireinrichtungen as on the AK-SU 74 have no function and a preparation of Hitmans through weapons selection is completely missing and that's really crumbly As for the fun.
Also, there is no hiding place this time by hoarding weapons and the daily newspaper reading !!! ???
That was probably the most brilliant feature of the series, with the newspaper in "Blood Money".
What's regurgitates me that you will first cast forever in a Fleeing story before you get a normal job.
Also no. 47 should not be pressed into the role of protector, like stay in the crappy film, but a restless loner.
The story as a whole is still passable and the level relatively numerous and large, but unfortunately without any significant highlights - such as the mission in Playboy estate in Blood Money, for example, or the Antarctic Mission in Contracts or the skyscraper mission in Silent Assassin.
It simply lacks what !!!
Taken together, these "noble-cold" and the tension and distance of Hitmans about its objectives lacking, the predecessor part for me distinguished.
Also you would have, in my opinion the "Agency" shall confer no face.
Conclusion:
Graphics - Good
Level - Okay by limitations in the preparation
Story - Satisfactory
Gameplay - After a period of acclimatization due to (poor) innovations Good
Sound - Very Good
A good game with downward trend for all fans of the series.
Sometimes it's better to stick to the basic recipe.
This Hitman must classify unfortunately behind its predecessors !!!
