Mafia: Definitive Edition was a bit of a mixed bag—a gorgeous cinematic experience that shined brightest in its storytelling, but stumbled hard when it came to gameplay. Let's start with the good: the cinematics are nothing short of amazing, the story is tight, well-acted, and nicely condensed, clocking in at a runtime that doesn't overstay its welcome, and if you're here for a 1930s gangster tale with all the atmosphere of a classic mob flick, then you'll be pleased to know this game delivers in spades; it's clear the developers poured their heart into the visuals and narrative. But then there's the gameplay—or rather, the lack of it. I'd estimate >80% of my time was spent driving, and not the fun kind of driving you'd hope for in a game. Nope, these cars were all sluggish, heavy, and slow to respond, where steering felt like wrestling a tank, and good luck making sharp turns without sliding into a wall. Oh, and then there was the infamous race mission. Wow. At first, it was almost comical—crashing into everything like a bumper car, spinning out, flipping over... I laughed through the chaos for the first dozen tries. But by the 100th attempt? Pure, unfiltered rage! It's not a challenge that felt rewarding, rather a brick wall of frustration, one which caused me to step away for a few days just to cool off before returning to finally beat it—and even then, it felt less like a victory and more like an escape. A friend of mine actually warned me about this, as she quit the game entirely due to the aforementioned lamentable controls, so when your core mechanic is so divisive it drives players away (pun intended), I think that says something haha. In conclusion, it's a stunning cinematic experience, but one bogged down by gameplay that feels more like a chore than a thrill. If you play games primarily for the narrative as I do, and you can stomach the driving—or if you've got the patience of a saint—then please do give it a shot! Otherwise, probably best to skip this one.

Mafia: Definitive Edition [Positives] - Mostly faithful remake. It’s pretty neat to see all the iconic scenes are areas recreated. - Solid story which has been expanded from the original. Most of the additions are really good. - Good characters. - Decent gameplay. - Good pacing. - Memorable missions. - Tons of vehicles and solid driving mechanics. - Great graphics and art style. - Much more polished than the original game. - A lot of padding was cut that was in the original. - Cars are stored in an infinite garage now, so you don’t need to sacrifice cars when you unlock new ones. - Paulie and Sam are more present in this game compared to the original, which helps flesh their characters out more. Other characters are expanded upon as well. [Mixed] - Some missions were shortened from the original game, but also some missions were expanded. - Some story details were changed. You may or may not like the changes, but I think they’re mostly fine. -The game does a better job at directing the player compared to the original game, but sometimes this goes a little too far and makes the game feel too linear and hand holding. - The open world is neat, but it’s pretty shallow. This isn’t a deal-breaker given that the game is mostly linear. - The stealth mechanics are a bit better, but now they’re fairly generic. There’s no more hitting enemies with baseball bats from behind to knock them out. Now you just have a typical ‘Press B from behind’ takedown system. - Cover mechanics in the combat are a questionable inclusion. - The shooting while driving mechanics are still a bit clunky, so it’s a bit of a sidegrade. - The Lucas Bertore sub-quests from the original games story were exchanged for free roam side missions instead. [Negatives] - Combat and gunplay feel more generic compared to the original game. Most weapons feel worse than the original. The Tommy Gun being one of the most noticeable downgrades. - The game was made significantly easier compared to the original. I’d recommend playing on Hard or Classic. - The racing mission is notoriously difficult, especially on Classic difficulty. - Some of the chase sequences are pretty scripted. - Some of the collectibles are neat, but there’s too many of them and the in-game methods of tracking them are incredibly lacking. - Various downgrades from the original. The city is a bit less interactive, being able to freely ride public transport was removed, car damage isn’t as impressive, some of the immersion feels weaker. The original game also felt fairly advanced for it’s time, this remake feels a bit too safe and generic in some ways. [Conclusion] Mafia: Definitive Edition isn’t without it’s faults. But overall it’s a really solid remake and I would consider it to be (mostly) an improvement over the original. It’s not super replayable, but it’s definitely worth a shot for the story alone. 8/10 Also check out my review for the original [url=https://steamcommunity.com/id/LegitGreenBoi/recommended/40990/]Mafia (2002) Check out my [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44976971-Greens%2527-Game-Reviews/]Steam Curator page for more reviews!

It's short but the story is great! Really great to drive around the city, but the cops are merciless! Be careful! :D But after finishing it, I don't fell like coming to it again. Took me around 14 hours to finish and I am not a fast player. It's a good game, but for me it is not worth the full price.
