    My rating is based on my impressions of the game. This is not an objective review. I play quite a big number of titles per year and decided to review them as a peace of art and not as a product.

    The game mechanics have not much changed. Basically it is still like the Hitman 1 from 2 years ago just with new locations.

    The best Hitman of all 3. One of the best stealth games you can play. Incredible replayability, great characters and story.

    Compared to Hitman 2016, Hitman 2 did not have huge improvements. But the game itself, is fun to play. Detailed maps and NPC dialogues, variety of ways to get to your target and level design, were fascinating (as it must be; because the game is too short).

    IA was bad sometimes, just like the pervious game. (Even in the hardest difficulty some NPCs acted weirdly and stupid)
    At last, I must say that Hitman 2 isn't a perfect game but it's fun to play and worth playing many times. I, myself, finished the game twice, and it was totally worth it.

    This game was always fun & as goofy or serious as you want it to be. I've even pissed away a full hour of the first level enjoying the beach. Now that it's on STEAM, more Youtube & Twitch streamers like Vargskelethor & Vinesauce are playng it & I'm having fun all over again with their different play styles.

    When it comes to style and level design, this trilogy is one of the best games I have ever played. The final mission on the Isle of Sgail is fantastic and the DLC levels in New York and Haven Island are solid additions.

    Story is more interesting than in 1, but 1 had to set up for it so I don't hold that against 1. Otherwise pretty much the same with some minor improvements. 2 had better level design as well imo but not by much. Fun games, very short if you don't plan on replaying missions for fun.

    Hitman 2 - 2018 - PC - is the best game I have ever played in my life. Absolute gem. I do not want to play any other game in the future. I do not want and I will not. The creators of this game are Gods.

    The amount of ways you can kill your targets and play these missions, is what really makes the Hitman games great and unique games.

    I can definitely recommend this game, as well as Hitman 1 and Hitman 3.

Great game but not with out flaws runs. It runs pretty well on my pc except when the camera moves verry fast. Runs at around 60 to 90 FPS on average. Allso the fact you have to be online to gain progress slightly detracts from the experience but on pc you will most likely be online even if your not you can still play wish that the feat is removed i know hit man thre is out now but this game is still worth playing. You can allso play the maps from the previous game Expand

    There are not that many levels / locations, BUT: They are huge and so nicely detailed. After the 3rd Map i have already played 30 hours (and didn't do all the achievements). The graphics are up to date and the game runs smoothly on ultra with the following system: 16GB RAM, i5, GTX1060 6GB.

    I can only complain about the movements sometimes and the controls on PC (if you want to play with keyboard / mouse, the assignments are a bit annoying.

    So if you like stealth games and a tactical proceeding, i can definitely recommend this game.

Every level has its own unique color palette. Good optimisation, many unique graphical technologies which are not used in other games - reflections, cloth physics. First season had nice cutscenes, second has cheap comics which are often criticized, but its not a big deal for me as long as game is fun. Played it for 130 hours, waiting for third season. My favorite level in first season is Paris, in second season Miami. Expand

    I had fun playing this game, I have been playing the hitman series since the beginning and this is one of the best series I have ever played. I love Hitman: Blood Money and Hitman 1 and 2 are using the same formula as Blood Money. However, they improve further the formula and it works. I can't wait to play Hitman 3.

    ITALIAN:
    Un gioco che ha cambiato la mia visione di certi aspetti nei giochi.

    AUDIO E GRAFICA:
    Audio al top con ottimi dialoghi e buon sonoro in generale, sinceramente non ricordo la colonna sonora.
    Graficamente è molto curato ma manca un po' di personalità (ma questa freddezza è tutto sommato uno stile e si addice al gioco), ricchissimo gli ambienti ma allo stesso tempo c'è troppa ripetitività di certi elementi.

    GAMEPLAY:
    La valore aggiunto di questo gioco.
    Il gioco su sviluppa su missioni, che non sono tantissime ma sono molto ampie e possono essere concluse in vari modi. Questo è possibile perché il nostro obiettivo sarà quello di eliminare un bersaglio, ma l'ambiente sarà una mappa estremamente ampia con un'enorme varietà di zone, situazioni e persone che ci permetterà di agire con creatività.
    Ad esempio potremo correre incontro al bersaglio e sparargli (anche se spesso è quasi impossibile), oppure infiltrarci sempre di più in modo da arrivare a tu per tu con la vittima, oppure ancora causare un incidente. Il tutto deve poi concludersi con la nostra fuga dalla mappa.

    Potremo raccogliere molti oggetti, potremo travestirci rubando dei vestiti e potremo origliare dei discorsi per pensare a soluzioni creative per raggiungere il nostro obiettivo.
    Tutto questo però è reso difficile da un gran numero di guardie o comunque persone che noteranno la nostra intrusione.

    Tutto questo presenta però due facce.
    Se da un lato tutto questo è spaventosamente fatto bene all'inizio, dopo poco si inizieranno a capire modi per fregare l'AI dei nemici, veramente ben fatta ma comunque rompibile con un minimo di esperienza videoludica. Inoltre l'assortimento della armi è ampio ma allo stesso tempo ripetitivo, avrei preferito trovare lo stesso oggetto in più aspetti.

    Questo gioco però mi ha fatto molto riflettere su un aspetto per me utilissimo per rendere un gioco divertente, ovvero la possibilità di scelta. Mi piacerebbe vedere in molti altri contesti la possibilità, specialmente se così ricca, di poter scegliere il modo di agire che si preferisce.
    Un altro elemento bellissimo secondo me è che i livelli sono veramente grandi ma non completamente open world. Questo permette di contestualizzare molto di più le attività che si possono svolgere, evitare di spaesare il giocatore e di creare trame più lineari senza sacrificare una comunque ottima mobilità.

    STORIA:
    Premesso che è stato il primo Hitman che ho giocato, ma per quanto una trama ci sia penso sia pressoché irrilevante ai fini del gioco, serve solo per creare le situazioni dei vari livelli.

    In conclusione, sebbene inizialmente sembri migliore di quello che è e che non è un gioco proprio per tutti, penso che per la sua struttura a missioni autoconclusive (trama di collegamento a parte) possa essere facilmente provato per farsi un'idea, con la demo ad esempio, oppure giocato nel tempo e quindi possa offrirsi ad un pubblico maggiore.
    Mi sento di consigliarlo specialmente a chi ha giocato a qualche Assassin's Creed e avrebbe voluto vedere le fasi stealth sviluppare in maniera più profonda.

    Simply one of the best games I've ever played. Hundred of ways to kill, maps are very huge and complex, maybe too much sometimes, they are a little dispersive. The gameplay is awesome and you always find new secrets and way of doing things. Creativity is rewarded.

    Hitman 1 (2016) ya era un juego excelente. Hitman 2 no llega para reinventar la rueda, sino que su labor es principalmente depurar la fórmula. Narrativamente, la historia continúa allá donde quedó el primero, con ese "esto es solo mantenimiento" tan contundente.

Hitman 2 no llega para reinventar la rueda, sino que su labor es principalmente depurar la fórmula. Narrativamente, la historia continúa allá donde quedó el primero, con ese "esto es solo mantenimiento" tan contundente. Quizá la única pega en este sentido es que se abandonan las excelentes cinemáticas del 1 para videos con imágenes estáticas que están bien, pero no tan bien. A nivel de jugabilidad el juego ha añadido algunas mecánicas novedosas (como el maletín, o la maleza) apropiadas para las nuevas localizaciones donde tienen lugar los contratos; localizaciones y contratos muy variados, con el nivel altísimo al que nos tienen habituados desde este nuevo ciclo. Con el añadido de que para los que tenemos el 1, nos incluye todo el contenido del primero gratis y remasterizado a las nuevas mecánicas y mejoras gráficas, y aquellos que no lo jugaron lo pueden comprar a un precio reducido, haciendo el contenido de Hitman 2 realmente enorme. Mapas de francotirador también hay algunos nuevos, nuevos objetivos elusivos y todo eso.

    Gráficamente el 2 mejora lo visto en el 1 aunque no revoluciona. Pero son mejoras muy bienvenidas en general, que mantienen bien el rendimiento del juego y añaden belleza gráfica. Especialmente interesante son los diseños y estéticas de los nuevos objetivos y localizaciones, muy diferenciados entre si y con los del primero. Sonido no tiene cambios, se mantiene el altísimo nivel del anterior y adelante. Y, al menos en mi experiencia, el juego no contiene apenas bugs.

    El resultado es un juego sin duda excepcional, que sigue llevando a Hitman en la dirección de la que nunca debió haberse alejado.

При этом если у тебя есть первая часть - ее компания доступна во второй. По самой игре - локации стали еще больше, чем были в первой, количество вариантов решения задач увеличилось, появились рандомные вещи - например, кто победит в гонке - не определено. Мне очень нравится, это именно Хитман, это не просто экшн от 3 лица. Если нравятся стелс игры, игры головоломки и вы в принципе понимаете, что такое Хитман - советую однозначно. Из минусов - сложно понять, какую версию покупать, чтоб получить весь контент и не переплатить. Ну и когда первый раз запускаешь - сложно ориентироваться на картах, они огромные. Но это большой плюс, т.к. реиграбельность очень большая Expand

    There are few games I enjoy coming back to more than Hitman. The replayability of this game is something else, with practically endless ways to complete not only the main story but also custom contracts, and escalations. Its only downside is the endless amount of money which needs to be poured into DLC to flesh out the full story.

    It’s more like a Season 2 to Hitman (2016) than a proper sequel, so there isn’t a lot of changes – just a few new story tidbits (in case anyone actually follows the plot), as well as 6 new incredibly detailed levels. [Issue#234, p.52]
