Absolutly love it!
Got Dungeons 1 + 2 so i had to have it, and it did not disappoint.

Moving around as the "not so nice evil" minions :) destoying things, and taking them over meanwhile building my dungeon was so fun.. and the narrators lines in-game ;D Even the story made me laugh from time to time..

If you don't like.
- meme an references and such.
- narrator and characters breaking the 4th wall.
Then you will get tired of this game quickly.


Narrator.: Is that all?

Me.: What more can i say?

Narrator.: Well i guess thats too be expected from one of the Not so nice evil henchmen **sign** can't find good people
now'adays.. Do i have too do everything myself..

Me.: HEY!

Narrator.: Now as i was saying..

Evil Dungeon Lord.: ...................................

Narrator.: The Not So Nice Evil Dungeon Lord say's you should Buy The Game and Support his Evil Plans...

Mafia 3 in my eyes fails to catch the "mafia" atmosphere-mood.

Sure some of its gameplay is nice, and its called mafia 3 but no "mafia" vipe :(

Its a one-man army run and gun, do rep. mission shooter, with decent story and for some that fine.

But the feel in Mafia 1 & 2 was completly different, something this title sadly is missing.


And to follow it up it feels rushed even after patching.


(For Me)

Pros.::

- Decent Story so far, and decent open map (should be bigger).
- Solid mechanics when shooting and covering.
- The Lethal or none-lethal option is good, giving variation to kills.
- Really Solid soundtrack.
- Cutscreens are nice.
- Overlaying old sceens and new one's like a old documentary is nice.
- Driving Simulation Mode :)

Cons.::

- Disappointing graphics even on Highest Settings.
- NO sense of mafia atmosphere.
- Very Horrible optimisation (even after patch).
- Some Forgettable characters.
- Repetitive missions.
- AI : Not Really Any.
- The Sky in this game is really ugly and pixelated.
- day-night cycle terrible.
- No Fast Travel (Even if i feel the map is small, getting rep. missions : get truck, deliver truck.. redo again same spot gets boring driving around then when game running like hell.)
- No Real Save Option (random saves).


Small Things bugs or misses.::

- Driving at 90 into wall/house/shop and surviving.. seems legit :|
- Disappearing textures, physics bugs. (Same on Low or High Settings).
- Rob shop run away, watch shop from afar.. no one calls cops? / cops don't show (they did in mafia 2).

On a good day i can play 15-25min at a time until i get Random Crash To Desktop (seems no fix yet, and no! turning off v-sync don't do it for me like some says).

And with no real save game option this becomes a real downer. And the constant bad fps / optimisation made me download Mafia 2 again.

SO :)

Sadly i can't recommend this title.
In need of even more patching.
If you really want to play this game find a REALLY good discount or make sure there's refund on it.

Alternative go get / play Mafia 2 think my laptop can even play that one on high :)
