A buggy broken mess that just never lets up on it's bugs, the game/story itself is somewhat ok and passable, but this isn't a good MAFIA game, it drags on for way too long and barely has anything Mafia about it, easily a skip unless you're looking to play the entire series like I am.

我真的是见了鬼了，一个1几年出的现代化化游戏，连设置选项都不能保存，知道我每次打开游戏都要重新打开字幕有多无语吗？还开放世界，这基本的细节都做不好，怪不着是系列最差

DISCLAIMER: This is my first review, bare with me.

I played this game on console and now I have just gotten it on PC, after a couple of hours, I thought I would leave my two cents since I know the reviews are mixed:

Is this game perfect? Far from it. But damn, the overall gritty atmosphere is just crushed out of the park with this one. The acting is done very well, the combat is engaging enough and brutal, the graphics are done very well for the time too.

If you plan to play on PC, you need to-
1. Go into the properties of by going to your game directory, Mafia III, right click Mafia 3 Definitive Edition.exe, Properties, Compatibility, and make sure "Disable Fullscreen Optimizations" is checked. This will uncap the framerate so it is not locked at 60.
2. I recommend downloading this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/mafia3/mods/28 to get ride of the terrible contrast. This makes the world so much more immersive looking and it is super easy install. Just overwrite the file with the one you extracted within this mod.
3. Optional- https://www.nexusmods.com/mafia3/mods/57. I also recommend this cause I think the vanilla crosshairs are terrible.

I know the common argument out there is that this game gets very repetitive very fast, and that is completely valid, but there are mod fixes for that too. It might seem like a lot of work to play this game but honestly it is like 15 minutes worth of overwriting some files.

This is not really a "Mafia" game so much but rather a revenge story that involves the Mafia. If you go into it with that mindset, I think it is easier to digest especially if you are a fan of the OG games. I love the city of New Bordeaux and get lost within it easily. Hopefully you do too!
