Lincoln Clay barbecuing KKKlansmen :blessed: .




The story was awesome. The world was bland with not much to do outside of story missions.

That's a Mafia franchise staple unfortunately.
Dead world that entices you to do nothing else other than keep playing the story unless you searching for collectables/achievements.​

Well the other games were more linear like Uncharted. With 3 they decided to go open world :snoop:

2 was Open world too if I recall correctly. I own 3 in some respects but never got around to really playing it so I can't speak on it, but just the fact that you've a game of that type with absolutely NOTHING to do in it, in this day and age, is just so assanine and lazy.​

Nah 2 was not open world. You could roam a bit before driving to story missions tvoufh

I personally want it to flop out of pure spite for the reception Mafia 3 received. We all know why that game is so hated, when IMO it has the best story of the entire series and the sharpest gunplay.
I don’t care what anyone says I fukking loved 3. The story, soundtrack and setting were great. Every once in a while I’m tempted to do another play through.
