    اللعبة ممتعة من ناحية تعدد طرق القتل والحرية الكاملة في تنفيذ المهمة وقدمت رسومات واضائة ممتازة كان الذكاء الاصطناعي ممتاز في اوقات لكن في بعض الاوقات كان سيء للغاية خصوصا الناس

    This is the best Hitman ever. I mean, the new formula was already good in the first Hitman of this new trilogy, but H3 is the best of the three. 6 news levels with amazing replayability, I still play the h1 and h2 maps. And the graphics are amazing, especially the Dubai map, that is breathtaking! It's a 10 out of 10!

    Pretty fun game, that has interesting level design, beautiful graphics (specially on PC) and it just works, literally. It's so obvious that trolls have tried to lower this user score, but who cares really? Everyone already knows that this game is best on PC.

    Хуже некуда, неуважаемые разработчики, вы что творите. No Russian.
    Впервые за долгое время отсутствует русская локализация, однако игра продается в русском регионе. С таким отношением нулевая оценка. Возвращайтесь к Square Enix или WB, если у самих ума нет довести игру до комфортного состояния.

    I really enjoyed Hitman 3. Some of the map levels were definitely bigger than previous installments. Pretty much expect the same from the previous two Hitman titles.

    Hitman 3 is visually good and good optmized game. Level desings are amazing. But its really short and very easy compare to other games. Even you can complete it "suit only" without giving much effort. Most disappointing part for me was the game being very easy. If you want to know whats being easy compare to other games heres a list:

    1 - Almost no CCTV in most of the levels. Even if there is, its really easy to find and get rid of survelliance system.

    2- AI is just really stupid they are having hard time to notice you. There is less patrols and people compare to other games.

    3- Remember mission stories that you can have many ways to kill a target. There is really few in Hitman 3 even some missions missing it. Of course you still have few ways to complete but its still missing.

    Basicly even Hitman 1 training levels are more harder compare to all missions of Hitman 3. That was the most dissappointing part for me. I hope they get rid of this episodic storyline soon and bring a long and challenging Hitman game.

    Man this game would be fantastic if the last update hadn't broken it. It crashes anywhere from 5-45 minutes after launching. Makes contracts, escalations, elusive targets, and anything you can't save during basically impossible to do. Reaching out to IOI or trying to find help on the forums is like shouting into a hole.
    Pros: Couldn't tell you, game crashes too quickly to tell.
    Cons:

    Now the bad things :

    - Very bad server issues from IO Interactive, and very bad communication about it, they are acting like it's not their responsibility.
    IOI is acting very rudely here (just check out their twitter posts)

    - Almost forced Steam owners of H2 to rebuy the game in Epic Game Stores.
    Thanks to players voicing the problem, IOI stated they will try to make it free.
    Edit 18th February 2021 : it is finally imported, it took around a month since launch.

    - 1 year exclusivity in EGS, I highly condemn this kind of behaviour, it is anti-players (and I'm not even talking about the other problems in EGS in general)

    So, what I can say is that you should wait for a Steam release if on PC, otherwise enjoy your Sony or Microsoft console ;)

Subtracting another point because close to a month after game launch locations from Hitman 1&2 are still not accessible in Hitman 3 (and I think it's a bit misleading that they advertise that progress can be transferred - I personally thought this means maps as well and would not have bought).
    Overall I think this is pretty clearly on the DO NOT buy list.

Its still a very good game but has some ideas that don't work with the hitman formula, primarily the berlin and final level. This is the game where franchise fatigue sets in and im glad its the final one. Its still worth buying and still has quite a bit of content but it only has 1/4th of the content of the previous games. Levels are bigger and more open but feel more restrictive since they have less things to do in them. There is also less than half of the mission stories of the first 2. Its less replayable and levels feel connected in a bad way, it feels more like 1 more linear and focused experience than 6 separate locations with a lot of things to do like 1 and 2. However, credit where credit is due, its still a fun and engaging game throughout and makes you feel like a badass. Furthermore the compression here is great and manages to fit all 3 games in just 60gb, they also improved and polished the mechanics a bit more In this entry making them even better than they were in hitman 2. Its not a must play but its definitely worth your time. Expand

    A stunning end to one of gaming’s best trilogies. Hitman III is an endlessly replayable distillation of everything great about IO’s signature series. The graphics are gorgeous, the maps are the perfect size, and the hits are as memorable as anything we’ve seen Agent 47 carry out before

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I played all the hitman games, it is one of the few franchises I trust to buy without checking reviews. So let me be clear, hitman 3 is not a bad game. It is more of the same, but it feels more lazy. Like when you see someone going to the toilet, do his thing, going to wash his hands and afterwards just going back to the toilet again. I know you must repeat things, but these short cycles? It is also not without bugs, even crashes...

    Also I noticed that it is very easy to kill the targets, there is mostly a moment where they are completely alone. Or when I can kill a target while there is a guard sitting in the same room. 47 still has a problem with ramps and cannot cross a little bit of water. It is silly and also the AI is stupid. I think they can see through walls or something. I had some trouble getting a guard, it was nearly impossible, but suddenly I found 2 guards talking with each other. So I hit the first man with a fish to the head, I repeated it for the second guard. No problemo.

    It is very easy to obtain the highest 'suit' so you can walk everywhere without any problem. I think the previous hitman did a better job there. But ok, it is not only about that in this game.

    So I liked the levels, they are looking great. There are some blind spots. I started a level and thought: ok let's get a new suit! Few minutes later I had one. And you should think it is more difficult with a level where they have tiers? Nope, the keys are laying everywhere, you can just grap one. The person standing next to it will not say anything. I really liked the level with the big rave, I lost my sense of direction, I used the map for the first time. There is also a lot to do on the map, different areas.

    The graphics are looking odd, it can be my settings. How the people are moving, talking, looking and behaving, it feels like it is too old. But I must say, it did not spoil my fun.

    So in conclusion, it is a good game, it maybe must age and ripe a bit, before it is better and maybe even perfect. There is nothing new and like I said, it feels a bit lazy at moments. Still I think I will have a great time doing all the challenges etc.

    I am a stealth fun and often using stealth is most of the game, where it not required but just an option, like Dishonored, Deus Ex, Skyrim, Cyberpunk and you name it.

    What I can say for sure, it is definitely NOT a game for stealth lovers. It is a game for Hitman lovers and only for them. If you not sure if you want to buy it or not and never played Hitman before, then buy Hitman 2, which is available for around 5€ nowadays. Graphics there is almost exactly the same, as well as mechanics and everything else, just story and levels are different. And if you don't really like Hitman 2, there is absolutely no reason to waste 60€ on Hitman 3.
    And yes, on top of everything else, this game is also incredibly short. Like many people said here already it is more like Hitman 2 DLC which barely worth 20€.

    Before even getting into Hitman there are a few very import things to know.
    This game is not supposed to be played in a traditional manner, i.e. you beat a level, follow the campaign and it's over. By design the game is focused on replayablity, the player is asked to play the same level like 6 times (well by abusing save states anyway) and witness all the little details a map has to offer.
    Each stage has about a good dozen path that leads to completion, however each path can be done in matter of minutes. This is not to be confused with game time padding, since every aspect of a map feels very detailed and well designed. Play the game in a straight line to finish and the game lasts no more than 10 hours, yet you played it wrong. Witnessing each little kill scenario is extremely satisfying, however even still HITMAN is a far cry from being a perfect game...here are the Pros(+) and Cons(-):
    + Much like every Hitman, the maps in Hitman 3 are vast and full of life, the player is incentivized to leave no stone untouched. In a sense Hitman always has been a game well suited for completionists
    + Hitman 3 in introduces new game mechanics apart from just reskinning the target and changing the landscape. The new mechanics are so cool they will put a grin onto players face, however...
    - the new mechanics are at times half assed. For instance, the player might go like "cool, time to be a master [... ]", just before you had the time to solve a problem on your own Diana quickly spoils you the answer over intercom. Was it too much to asking to demand a full experience?
    + Fortunately the story really picked up and is no longer just an excuse to kill targets. At its climax the tension is gonna makes players heart race. the player is given the feeling to almost have lost control over the situation, however, that tension quickly faded because
    - enemies still don't evolve. The enemy NPCS you met in the first tutorial chapter might very well be the same reskinned object you meet throughout the entire game. Even though this is a design choice it sometimes doesn't really match the enemies profile. It is disappointing to see some enemies that are supposed to be more vigilant still make a 180° turn to a coin toss like any other AI.
    + This makes it sound easy but in reality there are difficulty settings for everyone. Beating the game normal is fun enough, to really experience Hitman I highly recommend beating SASO(hardest things to do) on every level. Every level is designed in a way that SASO can be accomplished without being a pro gamer, and it really spices up things because the player will need to bring out their inner Solid Snake
    - there is one problem however, again with the AI, which is the lack of random. All AI are programmed to have the exact patrol and schedule to the second. This takes away the tension of the unknown and makes repeated attempts a bit boring since it eventually just becomes a memory game. The player would remember at which second this NPC is gonna do that, no more actual thinking and improvising is involved. I understand this is not MGS, but maybe an extra difficulty setting which makes things more random just the perfect topping.

    من الآخر:

    1- مراحل اللعبة الستة تحتوي على تفاصيل كثيرة ومصممة بعناية ودقة بشكل الكثير من اللاعبين ما يتصورونه.
    2- عدد كبير من التحديات والمهام في كل مرحلة والي تجعل اللعب أكثر حماس ومتعة كما إن أسلوب اللعب ممتع لكثرة الخيارات وتعددها.
    3- نجاح اللعبة في إعطاء الاعب التجربة الفعلية لنظام التسلل والتخفي بهذا النظام من الألعاب.
    4- كثرة التحديات في كل مرحلة وقله عدد المراحل يدفع إلى كثرة تكرار نفس المهام ولكن بأساليب مختلفة.

    Danish developers prepared a new set of fantastic sandbox environments, filled them with crowds, scattered useful gadgets all around, and said: have fun however you want. If the best Hitman missions for you were those based on freedom, exploration and watching the surroundings carefully, Hitman 3 is what you need. It is a worthy finale of an exceptional trilogy.

    Finishing a trilogy successfully in any entertainment medium is not an easy task in videogames. However, IO Interactive managed to close the new story of Agent 47 in a remarkable way. Maybe it did not offer new gameplay mechanics, it even removed modes from past installments, but the level design did bring a new depth to Hitman III that we had not seen before. Without having to change the usual Hitman formula, IO Interactive gave us in Hitman III a game with replay value, challenges to overcome and content in the short, medium, and long term that will surely extend its life way after launch.

    Whether it’s the great scenario design packed with routes and opportunities, the well written story missions, the many funny surprises, the attractive presentation or the motivating reward system - Hitman 3 combines familiar strengths with some new ideas like the shortcut system and the sadly PlayStation exclusive VR mode. Still, Hitman 3 is not free from criticism. This mainly concerns AI quirks, smaller logical errors and missing PlayStation Move controls in VR.
