Mafia III

忽闻游戏一折起，垂死病中惊坐起。
感觉没必要分期，钱包夸我聪明逼。

游玩模式拖沓但是剧情神作。
越南人，美国人……都想好好活着。
贫穷，富贵，黑的，白的，都想好好活着。
好好活着很难，主角的想法很朴素：谁剥夺了我们好好活着的权利，谁就要付出代价。
黑手党3和系列其他三部作品一样，再一次戳穿了黑社会的黑暗邪恶本质。扫黑除恶人人有责。

谁懂这看见平民要报警1米九超雄倪哥冲上去左键一秒把人锤地板上入睡的救赎感，虽然比起其他两作超绝磨人清据点罐头任务更多了，但体验了前两作开肥皂乱滑、帕金森手抖枪和三枪入睡脆皮身板再来体验这个1米9三体人能不笑的是这个，刚当完兵回来就开始杀个不停他简直是个超人。

它比“褒贬不一”更好。Mafia3是玩家选择对剧情走向影响最大的mafia，会感到林肯真的是在逐渐掌控城市，三个合伙人也会由于玩家的选择走向截然不同的结局。故事的讲述方式非常丰富，伪纪录片式的过场和插叙让林肯成为这段历史的一部分，而玩家则是在创造这段历史，多诺万神父和马奎尔在伪纪录片中三个视角转换这个点子非常好，内容写的也很扎实。开场的银行任务的插叙是非常亮眼的，这个视角下马尔卡诺的背叛表现力极强，这会一直强有力的支撑林肯接下来的复仇，每一步对马卡尔诺的逼近都会带给玩家“爽感”。任务后收音机广播的旁白和NPC对话的改变都在向玩家呈现林肯的行为对世界的影响，开放世界游戏的细节水平也很难比这高太多了。但我对它故事的称赞都比不上对它的配乐，不管是拯救阿尔瓦雷斯任务的Del Shannon的Runaway，还是最终任务驶向赌场时Sam & Dave的Hold on I'm Comin'，音乐插入的时机和曲目的选择都极其合适，南方摇滚和动作场面构成了属于60/70s的暴力美学。Hangar 13受到了不公平的对待，Mafia3决定版绝对值得一个高评价。

三代主线剧情演出不错，可惜了，被清据点拖垮了。支线内容重复，罐头游戏，开车开到吐，游戏BUG多，要是能把这些支线里面重复的部分砍掉，口碑会跟一代二代一样好。

虽然此作在网上褒贬不一，但我认为自己玩的开心是最重要的，我觉得此游戏不错。

前几天打完了黑手党3，并没有大家说的那么不堪，缺点是真的中期流程很重复就一直清据点，跟育碧的流水线作品一样无聊，还有BUG很多，优点也有，这游戏的枪械手感好，整个流程重复但打得爽，跑步手感也好，暗杀干净利落，剧情讲的也好，叙事风格采用了倒叙和插叙，并结合纪录片的形式的第三人称视角来叙事，并通过FBI探员、参议员、神父三个视角探讨林肯的作案动机和所造成的后果，让林肯这个角色更加立体和饱满，多结局选项和好，我跟喜欢浪荡江湖的结局，叙事风格对比前两作我更加喜欢这一作，游戏背景设定在冷战时期的美国，游戏把那个年代氛围塑造的很好，游戏中也揭露了美国当时的社会局势矛盾，如严重的种族歧视、名族主义和反共运动，比如大街会有禁止黑人进入和各种反对有色人种的标语，dcl剧情里就重点描述黑人运动，会有共产党的海报，同时剧情里也看得出多诺万和他的朋友对共产主义的训斥，同时结尾有个彩蛋，就是多诺万指出肯尼迪就是被马卡诺同党黑手党杀害，现实里也指出肯尼迪的死因也与黑手党有关，上台前肯尼迪就曾让黑手党帮忙拉票，并承诺给黑手党一些有利的政策，但上台后肯尼迪的弟弟担任了司法部长直接严厉打击黑手党等犯罪组织，游戏中肯尼迪被黑手党也解释的通，冷战题材的游戏超级少，黑手党算的上把冷战年代塑造的很好且沉浸感强的游戏，我觉的这游戏没有网上说的那么不堪，把玩法和BUG改一改肯定会好很多
I finished Mafia III a few days ago, and it’s not nearly as bad as people claim. It does have flaws, though: the mid-game is extremely repetitive, with nothing but constant stronghold-clearing—just as dull as Ubisoft’s formulaic, assembly-line-style games. There are also plenty of bugs.

Yet the game has its strengths. The gun feel is excellent; even with the repetitive gameplay loop, the combat is really satisfying. The running mechanics are smooth too, and stealth takedowns are clean and crisp. Most notably, the story is well-told. Its narrative style combines flashbacks, cutbacks, and a documentary-style third-person perspective, while also using the viewpoints of an FBI agent, a senator, and a priest to recount past events. These different perspectives explore Lincoln’s motives for his actions and the consequences that followed, allowing us to gain a deeper understanding of Lincoln as a character. When comparing its narrative style to the first two installments, I definitely prefer this one more.

Set in the United States during the Cold War, the game masterfully captures the atmosphere of that era. It also exposes the social tensions and contradictions in America at the time, such as severe racial discrimination, nationalism, and anti-communist movements. For example, you can see signs on the streets that read “No Blacks Allowed” and various slogans against people of color. The DLC storylines focus heavily on the Black civil rights movement, and communist posters are scattered throughout the game world. Meanwhile, from the plot, it’s clear that Donovan and his associates are critical of communism.

There’s also an easter egg at the end: Donovan points out that John F. Kennedy was killed by Mafia members allied with the Marcanos. In real life, there are also theories linking the Mafia to Kennedy’s assassination. Before being elected, Kennedy allegedly sought the Mafia’s help to win votes and promised them favorable policies in return. However, after taking office, Kennedy’s brother—who served as Attorney General—launched a direct and severe crackdown on the Mafia and other criminal organizations. This makes the game’s portrayal of the Mafia’s role in Kennedy’s assassination entirely plausible.

Cold War-themed games are extremely rare, and Mafia III is undoubtedly one that excels at depicting the Cold War era with a strong sense of immersion. I truly believe this game isn’t as bad as online reviews make it out to be; if its gameplay and bugs were fixed, it would definitely be much better.
