I wouldn’t mind another reimagining of Bangkok, but where it actually tries to be a hotel, more than a recording studio or a doomsday cult’s art exhibition.
The Source is an improvement over Club 27 imo, but barely, as it only focuses on the very small area of the hotel which also happens to be the best area, the one most in line with what a hotel should be like, and the rest is disappointingly unchanged. It’s the same level with a different color scheme.
I want the rooms and halls to be populated by actual, honest-to-god guests and hotel employees. We need to have a hotel in both wings, not just one, get rid of the band, recording equipment, and all their trash and junk cluttering up the place that would be better off without it.
I hope we get a Traditions of the Trade/House of Cards style location, capturing that specific level of seriousness in tone, but with the gameplay we’ve come to expect from the WoA trilogy.
As for other ideas, a snowy Whittleton Creek or a daytime Hawke’s Bay could be great to explore in new missions, I love Whittleton Creek and Hawke’s Bay as they are (An unpopular opinion, I know), but I’m also not blind to the potential that Hitman 2 didn’t fully realize.
A one target mission (a target with a complex, expansive route like Abiatti’s in Landslide or Carlisle’s in Death in the Family) based around the rain-soaked streets, alleys, and derelict shops and apartments of Chongquing would be great.
Edit: After playing some more of Chongquing this weekend, I admit I was somewhat wrong about this location. While I still feel the streets aren’t used properly in the main mission, contracts mode puts the streets to much better use than my first impressions initially led me to believe. I’m seeing more potential for fun contracts with each visit to this visually stunning place. It isn’t at the level of Mumbai as far as city maps go, since it appears like you can’t drop neon signs on passersby, but I’m still quite pleased.
