There's the "get detected and you instantly die" map. Aside from these, there are a couple of really bad maps. There are a whole bunch of filler missions which just have you walk a short distance (as little as 20 meters) to a door. All that effort you put into sneakily subdueing enemies and hiding their bodies? Gone, just like that. And if you do reload, all enemies respawn. These are rare and some levels don't even seem to have them.
There are a handful of checkpoints that you can activate to save some quest progress.
The worst thing about Absolution is the save system. Oh yeah, and the Contracts server is down, which apparently reduces the content of the game by a significant amount. And looking for evidence is an annoying chore. Another annoyance is that interacting with the environment is clumsy and it's sometimes tricky to get into the right spot to toggle a prompt to dump a body or something. And yes, even with a decent Ry& 16GB ram the loading times are quite long. So if you actually want to replay a mission you have to sit through the first 20 or so seconds of those every single time. One of the weirder bad design choices is that the game plays cutscenes while loading. Another annoyance is that interacting with the environment is clumsy and it's sometimes tricky to get into the right spot to toggle a prompt to dump a … More And there's a couple of challenges that encourage you to find different ways to do things, which helps. Obviously they absolutely pale in comparison to Hitman 2016's maps that are ten times bigger and allow for countless ways to approach things - but it's still nice. Agent 47 also feels much more like a real person in this game.Ībsolution has a few levels that are sizeable and allow you to sneak around, dodge enemies and kill the target in a creative way. Score penalties are much more reasonable than in Hitman 2016 you can kill people who shoot at you and not be punished if you shoot them in the head and hide their body. There's a toggle ability that highlights people and objects, and even shows where they're going.
Gunplay is much better than in previous games. It looks great, even for a 6 year old game. But, i would only recommend it if you've already completed Hitman 2016, which is far superior in (almost) every way. And while it can be infuriating at times, it's also too good not to recommend. Hitman Absolution has some of the most bizarre design choices i've ever seen in a videogame.
