hitman 2016 holds a special place in my heart

Freelancer boosted my Hitman 3 rating a lot, I bought it specifically for this mode :)

A mission in professional mode on Hitman 2016 is like playing a mission in master mode on Hitman 3.

Interesting video! I actually forgot how much faster the climbing is because I got so used to it nowadays

I think what's worth mentioning about Longevity is that Hitman 1 cheats a little. By that I mean that whilst Hitman 1 released only with ICA training facility and Paris, and went on from there, both 2 and 3 released with 6 maps each from the start, and had continuous support from there. This results in Hitman 1 getting an unfair advantage, and also penalizing H2 and 3 for releasing as finished products.

One thing Im not a fan of in hitman 3 is that in earlier games, you could get frisked while carrying illegal items, and the guard frisking you would try and arrest you. It was something I liked having to keep track of, and adding the illegal item block took some of the realism and enjoyment out of it

For the holding down thing,it works by measuring for how long you held the G key,so if you go in your inventory,hold G and exit the inventory,even though the game was paused during that time,you were holding the key for over 0.5 seconds and you instantly exit mission,posion food,dump a body etc. Thats why i binded my inventory key to upper side mouse button (mouse 5) because i can spam it and not lose any time on the clock. Im not speedrunning but i might try doing it

I remember buying Hitman 3 deluxe edition and then the month after IO had the audacity to make me pay for the deadly sins DLC. So much for a deluxe edition that promises new content for free... To this day I haven't bought deadly sins and still feel robbed.

A small detail. Hitman 3 also had VR mode

The only thing i think is worse in hitman 3 than 2016 is, that when lock picking a door, it will automatically open. Or also opening with keys. In 2016 this was better, because you could lockpick and only open when you were sure no one would be there

I'd love more sniper assassin levels

Great video, loved the analysis. Always thought 2 had the better content. But Ambrose & freelancer great value. 3 should have lost points somewhere for all the escalations.

Good video, totally agree. Hitman 2016. I actually liked the episodic nature of the maps/updates. Gave good time out from the game, gamers do often like playing multiple games, so worked well in my own view. But did kill momentum in the actual story. So a year later when Hokkaido was released I was actually a bit lost in the actual story , oops lol replay time in the lead ups Hitman 2 I felt let down with the animated cut scenes. But great maps/gameplay/story Hitman 3 was a great ending all round. Great finish to the trilogy Every time I started off from scratch and like rebuilding the mastery levels. So lost some items I might not get back but whatever no complaints. Only picked up 3 last year because I just knew it would be a long lasting favourite & played 2 to death before it was released. When prompted to download part 3 I just kept to part 2 🤣 Freelancer update, brilliant. Breathing new life into maps like Paris & Sapienza after 5 years is no easy thing. Just shows how great a job they done on their designs. Great for old players and new.

before freelance id give 2 the edge but the addition of freelance adds a level of replay ability to the game as a whole for me that has had me addicted. I think the idea of earning all your gear and that you lose it if you fail adds something special

Hitman 3 also comes with all the other base game maps for hitman 1 and 2, giving it much more bang for your buck

I started hitman a couple years ago with hitman 2 (maybe 2020?)but just the free one and I thought it was just fun then I had to uninstall it for storage but done that a couple times until I realised I could get hitman 3 with game pass so I did and I fell even more in love with it and got obsessed with it and started watching youtubers of it and by far you have been my favourite tysm for helping with your videos and guides

nice i liked the in depth details of each game i do really wish they did bring back the extra details/lighting from 2016 and ghost mode for hitman 3 however you can at least play ghost mode on pc with mods

For gameplay, every single Hitman entry has something better that the others don't. Hitman 2016 has amazing explosions with debris that lingered long after the blast. Hitman 2 had better physics, guns and blasts interacted with the environment more. Hitman III... well it just kinda rounds it all together.

Thanks! Excellent video. I would have liked you to account for your own Map Tier list for rating the maps of the three games, as a separate parameter from Bang for Buck.

Hey, i just wanted to say that you are one of my favorite KZfaqrs.

Hitman 2016 gameplay was incosistent and harder and it made it more realistic that is what I liked about it.

When Hitman 2 came out it didn't have those yellow detection arrows it had the same as 2016. They changed it mid 2019 I think. But I know for a fact it wasn't like that in 2018.

I started my hitman career when Hitman 2 launched! I was already a big of the old Hitman games but with Hitman 2 it was a huge impact for me: Graphics, Gameplay, Animations and Cutscenes were great. I played Hitman 1 only as rework of the package cause i bought Hitman 1+2 via Steam.... then that Epic Game was mandatory for getting early access on Hitman 3 so i got it with all DLCs and hat to play again from Start to get all ingame challenges because they didnt count 😢 i was very pissed that would impact my rating on Hitman 3 but Overall great work

I just finished the trilogy so it is pretty fresh for me I liked the way 2 handeled the cut sceens especially the meeting of the constant and the 3 family head it looked very cool for me.

hitman 1 is the first game i played and only played it and not hitman 2 for years. but when i started hitman 2 and 3 the first thing that struck me as a big change was the lockpick speed and also the ability to do a crouched animation for it aswell.

I guess for this to be really accurate, you'd have to rate every individual map every game includes to make a "map quality" parameter

I played 2016 the most and really enjoyed how much they let you get away with in that one. I also played it while I had covid so maybe that’s clouded my judgement.

Hitman 2016 is the reason i stopped playing cracked games. Throughout my life i have only played cracked games but after playing the cracked verson of Hitman 2016 and seeing how everything was locked because i couldn't playing online I had to switch to buying Hitman 2 for the original experience. After that i have only played games i bought on steam. I realized the benefits of playing legitimate games and the risks and disadvantages of cracked games. So in conclusion the Online only restriction actually works.

ok but can we all agree that hitman 2016 has the best aesthetics of the bunch?

Hey! good video, but you totally forgot to include the Sarajevo six dlc for hitman 2016, maybe not a huge difference for the score but worth mentioning atleast.

Loved the video but i think some categories shouldve been weighted higher then the rest such as gameplay and bang for buck being weighed more then graphics and story. Still I doubt this would have changed the result

Just a question I want to buy hitman 3 but I am not sure?does it come with all 21 maps?like hitman 1,2,and 3 together

Anyone has preferences but actually I like the white suspicion indicator more than the yellow and if you know in the white suspicion indicator was there in hitman 2 but eventually they swapped it out

Hitman 2 is my favourite out of the 3. I also liked HM1 instinct because I used it a lot in gun fights.

Another thing which you didn’t mention that I feel was better done in Hitman 3 than 2 are the special objectives not always being mandatory

Ghost mode would be more popular if it's not real time and work somewhat similarly to Dark Souls' ghosts

hello just gonna say this before starting to watch my ranking is 3rd- Hitman 1 (2016) 2nd- Hitman 3 (2021) 1st- Hitman 2 (2018)

When you don't like to hold down the G button to dump a body, then you can click I to open the inventory and while in the inventory click G. The body gets dumped instantly

To be fair do you think you can scale a wall or pipe that fast?

9:31 I really don’t understand this one, many textures in 2016 look like they’re missing UV maps or ambient occlusion making everything feel flat and like it’s just floating there Hitman 3 definitely takes the cake especially with the ray tracing which since getting a new pc I run all the time

It should be worth to mention how Hitman 3 also comes with all the previous WoA content tbf so it's definitely worth most bang for the buck.

The menu soundtrack in 2016 was the best

I love the trilogy and all but I wish the Carryover process bs where less of a pain to have to do especially when you get the new game only to see you have to unlock your stuff again 🤦 ( I’ve had hitman 2 for some time and finally got hitman 3 last year and when I saw the bs about a carryover process I was down at first because why not it’s a great feature, but I’ve been having issues trying to sync my ioi account to the 3rd game for some time now and tbh I just want some of my stuff from the previous game back, is all I really wanted I died a bit inside knowing that I had to unlock the matador a different way this time too it’s bs how the degaldo larceny escalation is now useless on the 3rd game)

what is ghost mode

What is freelancer mode?

I would say that in the base package hitman 2016 game you so much more then hitman 2 you can argue about the expansions but hitman 2016 has 6 maps with 4 Extra "Map missions" while hitman 2 just has 5 maps as Hawks bay is very small

7:27 "I never liked the holding down button thing anyway" me who's on console: first time?

damn, tbh good job!

I also returned to the first game recently and having difficulties with some missions i relied to old videos. Oh boy... they were VERY different from the last version of the game. Somehow IOI screwed up with the first game HARD as they patched it. Most of the problems we have today weren't there on early versions of Hitman.

Maybe you can rate the Tomb Raider Trilogy or Uncharted games?

I would like to say in Hitman 2 the suspicion bar used to be white but later they changed it to be yellow

I'm not entirely sure why you've included Sarajevo Six as Hitman 3 content. I realize it hasn't been available to everyone 'til now, but it's Hitman 2016 content.

I am a tad bit confused as to why for graphics, he only talked about the 2016 levels and not about how good the graphics look in like Berlin for example

map wise hitman 1 only has Paris, Sapienza and Hokkaido with loadout thats fun and the others are just discouraging to get into. hitman 2 maps also kick ass but 3 targets in Santa Fortuna is annoying and Mumbai is pretty bad unless you use speedrun strats to kill maelstrom, and don't even get me started on how shit haven is. hitman 3 is amazing to play with tons of replayability and fun with maps that have suit only in mind so that's good too, Ambrose i hate myself because of how unfriendly it is for casual players but i do see where it can be fun here and there

In terms of maps, 3 best, then 1 then 2

I had the most fun on hitman 2, so it’s my favourite

🐐KZfaqr

2016 graphics >>

While I agree Hitman 2016 had better details and effects and cutscenes it was severely lacking in some gameplay features like picture in picture mode , the same voice acting of npcs in every map and the maps werent that great apart from Sapienza which was the only map I liked in that game Hitman 2 is my most favorite of the three it had better gameplay ,two new dlcs map which are awesome to replay and more freedom of choice Hitman 3 was mixed bag for me while it had improved features but felt more narrative driven and stricter NPCs AI

i like 2016 version is more realistic and logical !

Hitman 1 levels look much better in Hitman 1. Paris red carpet for the auction was much brighter

really want hitman 3 but boy did they screw over people who own 1/2 already

1 graphically better. But 47 face in 2 is the best.

Honestly, I like hitman 2 because of it's look even though it's worse than hitman 3

Im like number 500

im around half way through and ima guess the best is hitman3 ] gaming

I’m scared that this is A April Fools Joke

Third is worst even though Freelancer does give some extra spice. First established what it is and second perfected it with containers and improved experience system. It even had sniper mode.

3, 2. 1.

2 wass the best, 3 was alreight, 1 was great

The slower climbing and movement of H1 was way better, it’s way too fast now and means that the timing is WAY too easy. You’re a great content creator but a lot of the stuff you like is stuff that just makes the game way easier, not better.

A

Both hitman games are better.

This is ez. The hitman game is 1 the hitman game is 2 and the hitman game is 3

Mielestäni Iskumies 1 oli paras
