Unpopular opinions about Hitman

Is it? I hardly ever see anyone singing it great praise in comparison to other maps. Calling it overrated implies that it’s highly-rated by many, but I’m not sure I’ve seen that a lot.

Garroting should take longer. The short amount of time it takes to strangle someone to death is immersion-breaking.

It would take too long to make it realistic, immersion or no immersion. However, I do think how long it took from C:47 - Blood Money was a suitable compromise, and wouldn’t mind that returning, including getting to see 47 pull the wire tight before using it.

I never said I was after realism, I said that it should take longer. Preparing the fiber wire was great yep. I really liked the metallic sound from SA.

I don’t like that in fist fights in the WOA trilogy you have to press certain key combinations to win. It makes fist fights boring and not challenging and they always look the same.

I would have liked it better if you could go into a straight fistfight and certain buttons entailed certain actions. I know Hitman is not about duels, but if they are going to happen, I would have liked them to be less guided.

They should just give 47 a glass jaw. Master assassin, but rubbish in a fight. Problem solved.

I liked Blood Moneys fighting style were 47 deadass walked up to a person and headbutted them, paired with a couple fists to the nose. No exeptions to who we were dealing with :laughing:

i dont know if my opinion is unpopular to be honest but i dislike every hitman soundtracks made for the last 4 games by any composer other than Jesper Kyd i was hopping they would just bring him back to make music for the game but …i know it wont feel the same like it was in HM:SA, Contracts and blood money
because the current hitman games are soo modern, back in 2004 Hitman missions felt like it was from a WW2 game like Commandos

While Jesper Kyd’s return would be best for the series, I do like some of the tracks from the WOA trilogy. Sgail, New York and Dartmoor come to mind. Berlin has a very old school military vibe to it. If there’s one score I absolutely detest it would be Whittleton Creek’s. Far too upbeat and borderline cartoony.

Was doing the Halliwell Fable the other day, and thought dropping a CX demo Block (Taken from Lowenthal who saw through my disguise) would clear the paper people and make the pigs easier to find. Actually made it harder.

Because they scattered but didn’t leave? Or because a real NPC also saw you? Or something else? I think I know what you’re getting at but I just want to be sure so I can offer the right advice

The paper people Scattered from the main hall where the explosion went off but were still in places like the toilets where they didn’t hear it. I didn’t realise at the time that the pigs weren’t actually in the crowd but at least one of them (who had actually been in the open) startled to the explosion and ran into another another paper crowd making him harder to find. The second pig was in the toilets but someone who had run from the hall, who wasn’t paper, and was now on alert saw me take him out which wouldn’t have happened had I not set off the explosion. Then the third turned out to be security anyway so was now searching for me while I searched for him.
Did it all silently the next time with no issues.

Yeah, removing the paper people is really only helpful for Kill Everyone challenges; they don’t count for or against literally anything excerpt the -5,000 points for killing non-targets so causing chaos in a regular setting doesn’t really help…

Also, when trying to clear them from the map entirely, make sure alarms start going off and/or targets lockdowns are triggered; they’ll eventually kind of “reset” (read: settle down in any new location they’re in) otherwise.

I don’t see that as being an unpopular opinion. Now, if you said the same about Tunnel Rat…

Hitman 2016’s Agent 47 face model legitimately looks like an unblinking, dehydrated vampire, while in Hitman 2, he looks very unatural and constipated, rocking that Easter Island face constantly (though still 1000x better than 2016, which seems to be the favorite around here, only really looks bad in certain pictures and angles). Hitman 3 is my absolute favorite of the 3, looking like an actual human being, with the only complaint that I can kinda understand being that he looks really young, but he is a genetically engineered clone so…

I am not excited about Freelancer. Not feeling the hype.
