Goes on for far too long without anything of interest keeping you locked in. In fact, it makes it worse by seemingly throwing your choices out the window. You are in a plethora of ridiculous events with sometimes hard choices (fun), while an overarching "story" plays through each Act but also interacts with each other and doesn't change regardless of what you do (not fun).

Had some genuinely frightening moments where you didn't know if the sounds coming around you were a threat or a warning, along with a memorable game over screen should you be caught. The story felt very tacked on, though, I would have really liked to see more fleshed out writing and ideas be thrown in this.
These sniper challenges hinge on being interesting and fun to look around at, and this level in particular didn't strike me that way the way some of the ones in Hitman 2 did. Hitman is always a good time, and at this point, IO hadn't fully figured out the formula yet. Also, good luck reading the HUD at 4K.

I think I get what they were trying to go for with the texts feeling "legitimate" and not super proper or anything, but ultimately the writing is not very good, none of the characters are very interesting and making up on the spot what to say when you don't feel a role for the character is uninspiring. There are much better titles that do what this tries to do.
