God damn. I was kinda expecting to be let down, but I think the concept of giving a player an objective and letting the player decide how they reach that objective is just an insanely strong game design choice that has, so far, always been engaging and compelling. Breath of the Wild and Metal Gear Solid V really nailed that and this scratches that itch that I've been looking for since I've finished those games. I loved my time with the game and I can easily see myself returning to it consistently.
I won't lie; I skipped the cutscenes. I really did not see myself being able to be engaged by any story here, but I doubt that's the point anyway. The gameplay here is supreme and just plain fun.

This game is far from perfect, the story is honestly just bad. I usually have no problem connecting with a badly written story or characters, but no characters in this game are interesting. I could probably spend hours just shitting on the story. I honestly don't think there is a reason to do that since IO never intended for the story to be good, they just needed the gameplay to shine.
And the gameplay is fucking gleaming. I love how everything in the game is so dynamic, deciding what items to bring to a map will completely change how you play. It's hard to explain how fantastic the gameplay is to someone who hasn't played the game, it's just brilliant.
But even though I think the gameplay is great, the maps shine in this game. The most important thing for me when playing games is how well-made the map is. And Hitman never disappoints with its maps. Every map is so incredibly well made that it's hard to believe they aren't real places. Sapienza, Chongqing, and Paris are some of the standouts for me. I have spent hours just running around the maps, picking up different items just fucking around.
Like I said in the beginning the game isn't perfect. The story is a complete wet fart and it makes the targets also feel lackluster. I only remember the targets' names on my favorite maps, Colorado? No idea. Miami? No clue. Mumbai? Never heard of them.

you hit men
Loved the hitman series since the PS2 era. I'm so happy that this franchise is still alive and kicking after 20 years. And that the PS5 version came with a platinum trophy.
pretty good! the first like half of this was a replay pretty much but the new stuff from 2 and 3 was very fun! some of the more "cinematic" elements in the new 3 missions did rub me the wrong way a bit but otherwise, A+
El juego es increíble, la historia es muy buena y los niveles están increíblemente bien diseñados, hasta los peores siguen teniendo un estándar bastante alto.
great great game. so much detail and very replayable regardless of the story. hitman 2 was my favourite of the three. can see myself coming back from time to time especially on some of the bigger maps.
yeah its pretty fire (i did not pay any money for this)
This game sucks
A great campaign with great replayability in the roguelike mode. The best spy/assassin type game on the market.
Grading them all as one game but yeah, pretty much the perfect Hitman experience bundled into one package
Hours of fun
One of the best stealth/sandbox games of all time, if not THE BEST. This game is extremely fun, with a flawless level design and compelling story. Truly incredible
Terminei a trilogia do World of Assassination do Hitman. E, é isso, a franquia que acompanho desde Silent Assassin chegou no seu indiscutível ápice.
Quão raro é isso? Um jogo criar seu próprio gênero e depois de anos aperfeiçoar a fórmula de tal maneira que te deixa pensando "ok, não tem nada além disso, é o pico, é a forma final". Porque Hitman não é um jogo de stealth, ele tem stealth, mas é outra coisa.
Até em pontos onde eu realmente não ligaria se fosse uma droga. A história do jogo é linda, muito melhor do que precisa ser. Sem quebrar os personagens como Absolution, pelo contrário, ele entra fundo no que é o Agente 47. Definitivamente melhor que seu AAA padrão que sacrifica gameplay por filminho e no fim faz os dois males.
O gameplay, eu realmente não vou nem tentar explicar. Quem jogou os Hitman antigo eu digo: É tudo aquilo, só que melhor. Para quem nunca jogou só alerto que o início é a pior parte, até para mim foi meio chato reaprender a pensar o jogo. Porque é basicamente um puzzle de ação, tem que aprender o que cada coisa faz e como usar para resolver um problema.
Isso leva a outro grande mérito do jogo: Quantas formas boas de ma... /quitar alguém. Se você for iniciante e estiver aprendendo pode seguir os guias das histórias e vai ser satisfatório, e até engraçado. Quem é mais experiente pode experimentar com tudo, e quase sempre o jogo recompensa. Parece que pensaram em tudo.
Só não dou 5 estrelas porque o menu é uma merda e o jogo insiste para você ficar online. Fiquei off numa fase e não ganhei nenhuma recompensa daquela merda, só passei mesmo. Ideia merda. Enfim, tá no GamePass também.

——世界是个草台班子——
新三部曲合集，作为一个强调伪装的潜入类游戏，区别于常规潜入游戏的通关思路是找到防守的薄弱点不断找到更高级的伪装以接近目标，而NPC和物品交互的涌现性使得本作的玩法上限更上一层楼。每一关的地图都各具特色，并配有相当不错的画面演出规格。一周目通关无论是当做射击游戏还是潜行游戏来玩，甚至是当做纯粹的农家乐看风景游戏都能找到不一样的乐趣。 但制作组本意应该是打算做成生化危机那样的多周目雕花游戏，玩家先跟着任务故事体验一遍剧情并熟悉地图，逐渐完成各种挑战解锁新的开场设置，最终研究出自己独特的通关路线。但全程联网和极少的存档栏位导致本作的多周目体验略有瑕疵。
关卡设计方面，第一部只有北海道的手术台有点折磨人。第二部的终点线无论是从关卡设计还是氛围营造上都可以说是系列最好的任务。第三部开始减少了任务故事的数量，提高了任务质量，并且关卡结构并不完全遵循相同的套路：3-5除了击杀目标外，还要注意不要把戴安娜也顺手杀了； 3-3则真的让你体验了一把失去戴安娜的感受：无法接收任何情报和任务，只能硬着头皮一个一个找。 3-2又变成了侦探游戏，只要根据线索找到凶手，暗杀目标自己就会送上门来。 我曾经吐槽过作为一个大型DLC，第二部的第一章做得跟教学关一样，第三部显著改善了这一点，他们把最后一章做成教学关了：地图被分解成了无数个小关卡，相互之间没有联系，做题感十分强烈。
说起来，这个系列完美地诠释了“这个世界就是个草台班子”，军火商吃路边摊吃到窜稀，地头蛇被豆腐渣工程冲进粪坑，就连开发商IOI自己的一系列骚操作也证明了，在游戏发行这方面真别怪SE，你跺你也麻。

(Copied from my Hitman III review since they're the same game)
If it weren't for the always online bullshit, this would be a 5 star game. While it lacks the attention to detail, atmosphere, music, and great story of Blood Money, it absolutely makes up for it in terms of ease of play, fun factor, and an astronomical amount of content. I really thingk the World of Assassination trilogy is the best Hitman game, alongside its much more interesting, if jankier, predecessor. Really a game of all time.
But again, fuck the always online.

I love this game to death it’s great finding all the ways to kill a target is so fun. Freelancer might be one of the best ideas of all time. Community content is also great
in my opinion the best in the hitman series, and probably the best stealth action game i've ever played. it was a great move to incorporate the whole woa trilogy into one game, and i applaud io interactive for making the less greedy choice (for once)
my favorite levels in the trilogy were the hitman 2016 levels, so getting to play them with the updated graphics, new items, and new gameplay features is amazing.
the visuals and level architecture is amazing, my personal favorite in terms of visuals is chongqing, with it's cyberpunk city asthetic. the soundtrack is also my favorite out of the series, being very cinematic and fitting with the story well, and the sound design is just as satisfying as 2016's.
in terms of gameplay, hitman 2 and 3 fixed a lot of minor annoyances i had with hitman 2016, including not having the ability to use instinct while aiming a gun, some awkward movement, and the addition of a green/yellow/red gun indicator for silent assassin.
the best thing about the hitman series is it's ability to accommodate vastly different playstyles, whether you want to sneak around and kill every target silently with no unnecessary casualties, or if you want to go wild and take out everyone on the map. there are so many different ways to complete any objective in any level, (except carpathian mountains, we don't talk about carpathian mountains) that it's almost a sandbox game. this also lends itself very well to speedrunning, as you can set up intricate kills and set them off from afar with all the gadgets and tools you bring with you from outside of the mission, as well as items you can find inside levels.
i won't be going into freelancer here, given that i haven't played it fully, (most of my time played was before it came out) but from what i have played it's pretty fun, albeit kind of buggy.
i haven't completed all achievements for this game yet, but i have beaten every level with the silent assassin and suit only rank, and done many contracts and elusive target missions. i've spent over 200 hours in the game, most of which has been speedrunning.
definitely up there with the stealth greats.
amazing game.

I hit a guard in the head with a coconut and the dopamine receptors go wild. Few games are as good at what they set out to do as IO's Hitman games are at creating the conditions for interesting/engaging im sim play. Freelancer mode makes full use of the systems and maps that often end up underutilized while playing its story campaign.
Hitman World of Assassination is a collection of the 3 games in the Modern Hitman trilogy, after putting in over 100 hours I can say that I thoroughly enjoyed the game, not only is the stealth and puzzle solving truly immaculate I was able to get invested with what the game presented, that of a sandbox to eliminate targets in fun and exciting ways.
The only complaint I have about the game is the occasional bug and also the horrible story, the main story of the game has very little substance and was clearly put to the side in favor of the stories presented in the levels that are more fleshed out.
The first game is great, the second is perfection and the third needed more time.

there's a few stinker levels which feel like suck if you don't want to just shoot the guy and run off but also, you can just shoot the guy and run off

HITMAN World of Assassination es la colección definitiva de los juegos de HITMAN modernos, conocidos por su enfoque en el sigilo, la gran cantidad de formas en las que puedes eliminar a tus objetivos y sus detallados mapas increíblemente inmersivos. Incluyendo los tres juegos más actuales, el contenido que ofrece esta colección es más que suficiente para tenerte horas jugando, considerando el alto nivel de rejugabilidad que hay a lo largo de la trilogía. Además, incluye un modo "roguelike" llamado Freelancer en el cual tienes que eliminar a una serie de objetivos random en locaciones distintas y con una cantidad limitada de vidas, empezando desde cero si se acaban.
De la historia no puedo hablar mucho ya que no le presté mucha atención, pues es el gameplay en donde la trilogía brilla, pero puedo decir que, una vez jugados los primeros dos HITMAN y prestar algo más de atención a la historia del 3, puedo decir que terminé interesándome en la línea narrativa y todo el tema del pasado del Agente 47. Las mini-historias que ocurren en cada locación también son bastante interesantes e incluso divertidas, ya que en general el juego tiene un sentido del humor muy bueno. Disfruté mucho ser el guía del tour por la planta de fabricación de vino en Argentina, y hacerle caer la prensa gigante de uvas en toda la cabeza al objetivo.
Como dije, el gameplay es el fuerte de estos juegos y no puedo decir nada negativo de él. Nunca me han interesado los juegos de sigilo, pero en este caso no todo es siempre sigilo, hay exploración, pseudo-roleplay cuando tienes que hacerte pasar por otras personas para colarte en algunos lugares, observación y, en ocasiones, acción. Puedes perfectamente acabar un nivel a balazos, lo difícil es sobrevivir.
Los elementos negativos que le quitan una estrella son, por un lado, el requisito de estar conectado siempre a internet, lo cual es absurdo siendo un juego single-player; y por otro lado, algunos objetivos que son bastante tediosos, sobre todo aquellos en los que tienes que resolver algún tipo de puzzle o encontrar un objeto específico para acabar el nivel. Más allá de esto, la trilogía moderna de HITMAN es excelente y la recomiendo totalmente.

Manifesting a legal hitman copy.

Probably would give 5 stars but I don't like that it requires an internet connection and some levels are duds. Great game
i love it. such an intricate sandbox.
the best thing about this is how open-ended it is being able to go either as apeshit or as professional as you want. was immersive and fun chasing the platinum for.

An absolutely astounding achievement of player choice and interconnected level design stifled by a greedy ass bastard of a company trying to milk every penny out of you they can. Fuck you IOi management, I don't think you could have made purchasing all of the dlc more frustrating to buy unless you like, had to solve a riddle to buy it. Yeah that would make it hard to buy.
So fucking good, love this shit and love that they added that new rouge-like game mode.
Bon gameplay mais on nous tient beaucoup trop par la main suffit juste de suivre la quête y'a pas vraiment de difficulté
An exceptional stealth game that I truly do not have time for right now. This one will be revisited later.
