    Really wanted to pick this up as a fan of Hitman but I'm concerned about all the reviews mentioning how linear it is. A big part of Hitman's appeal is just how many ways you can tackle a single level…

      You can go back and replay a specific level once you've passed it and there are multiple ways to tackle an objective. I plan on doing that once I finish the story, which is pretty short by modern...

      You can go back and replay a specific level once you've passed it and there are multiple ways to tackle an objective. I plan on doing that once I finish the story, which is pretty short by modern AAA standards.

    I've been glued to this game for the last two days, (13 hours according to steam) and it's really really good! I expected a bit more Hitman style sandboxes, but it still does feel like Hitman++. If Agent 47 has a charisma score of 10, Bond pretty much has a 18+. The game is relatively linear but the set pieces are HUGE, it feels a lot like Uncharted for me.

    To anyone in the know, was the recent news about its DRM a deal breaker for you if you were originally looking forward to it?

    I'll say, it looks like the most ordinary release I think I've seen. I can't help but see something like Splinter Cell Conviction with more color. I'm mildly interested but am going to wait until its on sale.

    I've been playing this a lot after work and while I really suck at it, I'm having a good time. I'm coming fresh off of a replay of RDR2, which has almost the exact opposite approach to gun battles so it's taking me a while to adjust to the big action sequences. Evidently the concept of flanking your opponent wasn't discovered until the sometime after 1911 and I am now paying the price for that. My only critique so far is that the training portion DID NOT prepare me for the first mission lol.
