What about Mafia : Old country?
I see comments were very harsh on it, and I remember Dobke saying it was quite different from usual mafia games.
I liked it, it felt like a solid linear game from the early 2010s that put a lot of emphasis on cinematography and direction. It is very obvious that the game is a budget one (the cutscenes are very, very well done here, but everything else is not so good, especially if you try to intentionally break the game and conduct experiments from the category “What will happen if I do this”). The story is very simple, quite predictable, sometimes questionable, but quite functional; the direction is good; the missions are more or less varied, although half of them develop according to the same scenario. I enjoyed it and even then went to replay Mafia 2 and Mafia 3, because I wanted to. So yeah, if you like the 7th generation games, you’ll definitely like the new Mafia.
By reading this , I feel I may like the game. It happens often that I like games that others did not like (last DA game, evil genius 2).
What counts for me is the story, even if it’s simple when it’s well told.
Thanks a ton .
And so Kingdom Come 2, how was it compared to first one ? :D
Battlefield 4 campaign is like a long tuto, you played multiplayer too ? It shines on naval dlc but not sure there are still enough new players to make it balanced.
Ah and also congratz for your month !
Basically the same, only much bigger and a bit easier; if you loved the first game, you’ll definitely love this one. I’ll wait until all the DLCs come out and finish all the started and unstarted side quests, of which there are still a lot and more even after 100 hours.
Yeah, I played multiplayer in the mid-2010s, and initially I did it for work. I was working in a service center then, repairing computers, and one guy brought us a system unit with a very specific problem: his system went to blue screen exclusively while playing Battlefield 4, and specifically in multiplayer. And I literally had to play online for hours to determine the exact cause. I definitely raised his levels by ten, no less. Then I periodically returned to the game, already on my own account. It was pretty fun. Now I’m too old for this, my reaction was not very good before, and even more so now, but occasionally I go in to shoot.
I definitely won’t be playing Battlefield 6, but seeing the rave reviews from the beta and videos of players doing amazing things is pretty cool.
Thanks for your answer on KC2 that’s good to know ! i’ve a low-end computer so probably will wait for it to be complete and discounted ;)
About BF4 that’s really some special circonstances to discover this game ! What was the cause of the bug ?
I feel you on the reflexes, especially as on the old Battlefield probably just the hardcore fans of the episode are still there.
The problem was in the motherboard, the southbridge began to fail, and therefore, due to the high load on the network card, the system went into a blue screen.
