Mafia III was The Punisher of the Mafia franchise. In my experience, it’s alright. Not blow your socks off game of the century, but it had fantastic music and what Mafia does best, is the story and the world it’s set in. The 1960s were a turbulent decade, but also a very intricate decade. 👍

The games story has an identity crisis. If it had nothing to do with the mafia it wouldn’t have been so borderline cringe at times.
I wish Mafia 3 had more character interactions with the main 3 underbosses.. and not just Lincoln getting closer to his underbosses, building bonds with them.. but having Vito, Burke, and Cassandra interacting with each other and becoming closer. Building a literal family or whatever..

GTA has plenty of repetitive filler. It has better driving, shooting, boat, and plane mechanics. I played Mafia one, and two. Mafia two kept things concise. Good shooting and bullet physics. I liked playing the character in three. I will say again, the story and character animations are awesome. If you skip the open world drivel, and unfortunate AI, this game is a masterpiece.

To me, this has a great story and characters. That final scene where you finally confront Sal is so well done in my opinion. Unfortunately the gameplay is repetitive as hell, but at least it has one of the absolute greatest soundtracks in gaming. I will also add that I appreciate the narrative choice as presenting it as a sort of documentary, something I have never seen before or since in gaming.

This game doesn't have 'very little to do with the mafia'. It has everything to do with the mafia, that's the whole plot, it's just from the other side. You aren't *in* the mafia, you're *fighting* the mafia. It's still a mafia-focused story.

more of the same ol' general consensus/Perception regarding AC1s gameplay structure... it wasn't 'repetitive' just because it was 'repetitive' - and nothing more than that, to put it shortly, the 'repetition' is a part of the games narrative getting exemplified and intertwined with the whole 'repetitive' part, being the fundamental essence of meaning to take liberties with the overall experience of AC1. This transpires into Desmond's part in the overall narrative as well as Altairs and how that corresponds with the gameplay structure, and so the Animus is supposed act upon as a mere catalyst for the story to progress forwards, both Desmond, Altair and the Player undergo the same progression through it's overall narrative structure, and with its interconnectedness with its gameplay structure... the gameplay loop/structure is 'repetitive' at a surface or basis level, and every game shares that sentiment, but difference with AC1 is that there's layers to the 'repetition' that Ubisoft specifically prioritised for thw overall experience of AC1 compared to any other AC game after AC1...

The best way I can sum up Mafia 3 is: “amazing story, lukewarm gameplay.” The cutscenes are absolutely incredible in every sense of the word. But they aren’t enough to hold up game play that boils down to one of two missions: drive here and destroy x or drive here and kill x. The boss missions tend to be much better with the set pieces. The clan meeting and the river boat were some of my favorite parts. And the DLCs, especially sign of the times, shows that they COULD have made the game a lot more varied if they wanted to. But as it stands, it’s merely an ‘okay’ experience. *edit* I know this goes against the spirit of open world games, but I feel the game would have benefited from a much more linear storyline rather than open ended ‘move at your own pace’ missions. Have each racket feel unique in it’s disruptions: like ruining street races for the car theft racket, passing on investigative info to the feds to put pressure on the southern union, expose the officials involved in the bribery rackets so they’re forced to cut ties with the mob, that sorta thing.
The key to enjoying mafia 3 is to think of it as black Rambo the game. A Vietnam vet who’s been crossed out to get vengeance.

Mafia 3 is still a solid game, the setting alone in the late 60's makes it relatively unique in modern gaming, which is honestly the biggest factor into why I love the game. Sure, it does have its flaws and bugs,and continuity mistakes, but its still a great game.

Been sitting on my PlayStation account for months. Maybe I should finally give it a try, especially since I loved the first two games so much.
Maybe this is just because It was my introduction into the series but personally I loved Mafia 3, but I suppose I also appreciate the Vietnam war era for America and what that meant, how impactful it was in terms of narrative for him to basically still be in the trenches when he got home, but also I enjoyed the gameplay, I love GTA and Saints Row, and without Mafia 3 I probably never would have thought to try the first 2, mafia 2 is probably my favorite because it has a lot of roleplay elements involved that just make the world feel that much more real and alive, 3 was missing those, and 1 didn't have them, 1 being the first and most simple, I don't hold it against it, there's individual things I like about each one, 3 in particular I like the feeling of growing your gang and getting resources, just the whole way it works, it's dope, do I really feel super "Mafia" as my character compared to Vito for example no of course not, hes an Italian mobster, but it is important to remember plenty of other forms of the mob, and organized crime in general certainly did exist, I love their general desire to maintain historical accuracy for all 3 of them (although some of it is still inaccurate in each one)
Ah yes that classic by Bon Jovi, "something something copyright"
Do not let Kevduit take the wheels. He will drive like a average American Pilot in War Thunder.
That's the most fun anyone's ever had with Mafia III.
I loved it when Lincoln said "It's over, Marcano, for I am going to take over your Mafia 3!" Truly one of the games of all time.

In my opinion, it definitely is a bit of a deviation from the original tradition of the Mafia series, but it is still a Mafia game. You basically control a culturally diverse mob while fighting a traditional Italian mob. You still control rackets, you run things, you enforce the rules. All that is different really is how its executed. Mafia 3 is still pretty good, but sometimes it can get a little repetitive and it is basically some of the same things that happen across the game.
If Mafia 3 came out today. Holy shit the fucking fallout from certain people would be absolutely terrifying.
I liked this game so much tbh The vibes were immaculate, especially when you like the aesthetic and most of all the music 😌 Putting aside the bugs and repetitive side missions. The main missions and their writing was great imo.
Once I was done with everything in the game I used to ride around in the cars just to listen the radio playlists they had😂😂
People are so oblivious and ignorant. Saying this "isn't a mafia game". Mafia 1 & 2 is all about being in the mafia while 3 is about taking the mafia down. Now the main difference is how in 3 they made the charachter more superhuman like, but I don't find that to be an issue. Though I do understand why people who enjoyed the 1st 2 can see that as a con for the 3rd. It's still a great game though

You calling people "oblivious and ignorant" for thinking this is extremely oblivious and ignorant on your part. You realize that people have different tastes? Example: Disney star wars is awful, but everything before is at least serviceable. Mafia 3 isn't nearly as grounded as the first 2, which is what people wanted. The superhuman bs doesn't belong and the gameplay loop is too grindy for a game you shouldn't have to grind PS: This isn't a mafia game

So it's like GTA, Max Payne or Punisher where you can cause chaos or kill any family member without fear of being stabbed in the back by those closest to you, the identity of mafia life in this game is completely absent when the game more focus to vegeance rather than how to live under rules, loyalty to family are greater than our own family, etc.
Honestly couldn’t even finish this game. Coming from mafia 2 to this was so disappointing. I wanted to have that cosa nostra type mafia feeling. You aren’t even in an actual family. Its just lincoln and a couple of other people just doing the same thing over and over again

The whole point of Mafia 3 is being a vengeance filled Nam' vet who fights AGAINST the Mafia. That's the ENTIRE thing. The story isn't being in the Mafia , it's fighting against them. I know another comment said it , but I wanted to make my own comment on it
Mafia 3 felt half-finished. A lot of good mechanics (like shoving people in a trunk), but some others were completely missing. It's like eating a frozen cake.
Id love to see you actually do a series of this, or any other game. Like, i really like watching you play with your commentary, but it would be cool to have some part 2s to keep going through
I think the closest part to Mafia is Vito Scaletta being in the game. If they ever make Mafia 4 i hope it's about a Mafia.
The biggest thing this game has against it is that it's really unfinished. Otherwise, everything else ranges from solid to just bland.
Playing game for first time n I love it. It’s a culmination cuz now you get to be the boss. Mafia isn’t just Italians every race really has one
13:00 was such a good transition 😮

Mafia 3 is one of the games I really enjoyed, is it the best in the franchise? Nah but is it fun and does it have great music and atmosphere? Yes. It also gave us the best protagonist in the series, Lincoln Clay is a badass
The biggest problem with the game for me was the lack of fast travel and what they did with Vito. Rest was pretty solid gunplay, world, cars, graphics and those lethal takedowns.
The game has it's appeal but it's riddled with easily avoidable issues. Fire a shotgun straight ahead from a car while speeding. That's right. You can outrun your own bullets. And the missions get grindy and repetitive despite the pretty decent story.

And i told him "no literally look the ai is broken and they throw themselves in front of your car in the street for insurance money if you drive over 40 mph" At first he didnt believe me but then i gave him the controller and he was laughing because i was right "broken game just play gran turismo"
If it was a stand alone game not tied to mafia, I think it would have had better reception. I like how they made Lincoln like the boogie man.
Whoever said mafia 3 is a bad game is just a follower the only bad thing about it is yes it’s repetitive to advance the story but other than that the story and gameplay is phenomenal and yes it still has to do with the mafia.
Mafia 3 basically is just a vehicle to giving vito the outcome he deserves and not much else lol
This game left me conflicted for a while after I finished it whether I liked it or not. In the end I came up positive about it. The gameplay itself and the gameplay loop are not exactly riveting but it really nails the atmosphere of the time and place and together with the driving, the characters and the whole presentation I had an awesome time with it. I got to admit though that I have not yet played the other two Mafia games.
I wish the gameplay of this game was better because I fucking loved the story start to finish, they could've done so much better on the repetitive "control a zone" missions that I assume most people stopped playing at.
