GAME SINS | Everything Wrong With Mafia 3

[Music] I can understand two gays desire to not be seen as racist after making a game that drops neon bomb liberally but come on you made a game set in the American South during 1968 I think even the most racially sensitive person would understand the need for historical accuracy even I don't believe what I just said in Bordeaux is essentially New Orleans I'm still trying to figure out why they needed to fake New Orleans watchdog's already proved that you can say your open-world game in a real city and still butcher the geography and street layout to suit your own needs Lankans mother abandoned him and no 1947 a documentary is a great way to introduce and build of a character before he's even introduced but by the end of the game you'll be wishing they'd use it only for the intro and ending because cutting back to this documentary on Lincoln gets disorienting damn shame what happened it breaks my heart god damn a game you start out so promising with well-written and active characters like this which makes it that much more of a pity that I hate this game so much for its by-the-numbers gameplay it's been scientifically proven that smoking a cigarette while we're telling a sad story will result in 20% more fills 35% of the smokers a kindly black priest this game starts with a documentary being filmed in 2002 then goes back to when Lincoln was involved in a plan to rob the Federal Reserve for the Mafia then in the middle of that robbery the story cuts back again to a week before when he arrived home in new Bordeaux then spends the next hour jumping between all three time periods then jumps back to the 2002 documentary in a 1971 Senate investigation from time to time for the rest of the game look I like nonlinear narratives as much of the next pulp fiction fan this is getting out of hand still say this is the craziest goddamn thing I ever heard using real money to rob the feds it is actually engine make you question why the mob is risking their own money and a scheme to rob a major bank great job leaving your fingerprints all over the gas can I'm sure the police won't bother to check for that when they come looking for the security yard you left tied up it's the craziest thing you solve it and his woman walks up she's got a baby in one hand released to a pig and the other an MP stops and tells it you can only bring one thing on board so she tosses the baby into the water I'm pretty sure your MP would have told the woman that she can only bring her baby on board instead of giving her the option of choosing between her baby and her pig finger let's Lincoln and Georgie through the gate after checking their fake IDs the fact that Lincoln is black and the guard he took a uniform from zweite is apparently non-issue all right go for it God - in a game where characters drop the n-word regularly it's all that I find this comment the most racist [ __ ] you yeah yeah that's a lot of money inside the vault but there was just as much money outside the vault Lincoln should be wondering why they're risking setting off alarms opening the vault when they could just be stealing the money outside it in fact the money the Lincoln starts to collect before the alarm goes off a stored outside the vault and he was bringing that money back into the vault since that's where their friends are gonna drill the hole to the floor you just come from Vietnam this makes two mafia games in a row now where the main characters returning from fighting in a war showing some real creativity there you guys there's evil and then there's public littering evil I said mode in three words and he's going about the fish we ain't selling no dope to no kiddin that is not Sammy's accent your dad is Dominican we wouldn't be in this mess if you were to listen to me what mess not something you need to worry about Dinka oh the old classic main character overhears people arguing but can't get straight answers of anyone until it's too late cliche excellent choice everyone has apparently already heard that Lincoln is back in town just have a day after he got back the Haitian mob even tries to kill him in the diner though I'm not sure why they have a problem with him sure they don't like Sammy but their feud started while Lincoln was in Vietnam got jumped by the Haitians Tom you level with me tell me what's really going on yes I suppose a tooth it's always time after people tried to kill you never before once we eliminate whoever's running the show the rest of them will go down I'll know Lincoln has never heard the terms power vacuum or sickening command before how lucky was Lincoln that Baca was out of bullets he just casually walked right up to him like he knew that was going to happen Cassandra really summing up those fake tears quickly she's pretending that she was buckas sex lay so that Lincoln let her go she started this act seconds after Lincoln killed Baca before she even knew Baca was dead actually [ __ ] Haitians that's racist let those [ __ ] [ __ ] [ __ ] themselves when I saw you coming white guy check Vietnamese racial slur check it meets the criteria so that's racist this Vito Scaletta Vito was the main character in the previous game yet depended of those mafia 2 fans somehow twice a year the feds take old money out of circulation and destroy it over the course of the next few days that money's gonna be delivered here to the reserve in town and you're gonna hear one of those shipments ha ha ha no sir we are gonna use that occasion to gain access today a vault there are so many red flags with this plan that I'm surprisingly can never sell the double-cross coming robbing a Federal Reserve is not easy to do or get away with robbing a shipment of money scheduled for destruction the way to the bank would be a much smarter plan did you get solo piece of [ __ ] real kept overheating if they were just going to drill into the vault why did Georgie and Lincoln bother dressing a blank guards again access to the vault they could have just made the hole wider and insured that way normally you would warn people before you light the dynamite underneath them apparently the police are stationed inside the underground canal system just in case of bank robbery attempts because they are on this [ __ ] quick also this is the only time the police will chase you in votes for the rest of the game you can escape them by jumping into the river Mardi Gras is being held this year a new Bordeaux instead of its traditional home in New Orleans if anybody yes we say he's drunk yeah that's not gonna work with that giant bleeding wound on his leg get to the car I'll deal with cops time off rather than kill some cops to serve as a distraction so Georgie Neos can make it to the car how about you just head to the car the cops haven't spotted Yuya and the car is down the alley behind you I'm just saying that there has to be a better way of doing this and killing cops and creating a much bigger scene this is supposed to be money that the Federal Reserve is going to destroy however the Federal Reserve destroys money that's damaged to a certain degree this money looks perfectly fine I'm calling a man I know having him bring over three Hooke boy hey no okay I have a stepping foot in this house you sure cuz to it em off for you doesn't that mean just one hooker for everyone else then let's want to get awkward semi doesn't realize that marcano just gave him a kiss of death and that was a mock Lachey even by 1968 Georgie shoots Lincoln on the left side of his head but the bullet scar will be on Lincoln's right afterward does anything good ever having anyone when the song is played where the [ __ ] you think you're going [Music] looks like it's time for another plot about one man's vengeance against those who robbed him of every person he ever cared about Ubisoft approves hell what am I saying every big publisher uses that plot I still don't know what brought me dead at night look buying Providence something else what I bet it was a blunt and I was pulling Lincoln out of the fire woke up long enough to tell me to call John Donovan so after being shot in the head and being pulled out of the fire Lincoln was not only coherent enough to tell father James to call a person in particular but remembered his phone number this game reminds me a lot of Suicide Squad awesome soundtrack boring story that's not as impressive as it believes it is father James didn't take Lincoln to the hospital after we shot in the head you need more than bed rest when it comes to that under the song is long but it's been playing for weeks at this point while Lincoln recover from his coma it's about making that bass to feel what it's like to lose everything watch as I take it all away from it's also about hiding a ten-hour game into a 20-hour one revenge is typically a straightforward affair except in video games or everyone complicates the hell out of this but most of the cops in this town are in sales pocket the cops Steve fighting sales goons they're coming after you if more Connor controls the police to that extent why were they such an issue during the Federal Reserve robbery his son was even helping rob the place pocket watch memento cliche this pocket watch will never come up again so what was the point of collecting it how did Lincoln's hair grow over that bullet scar in the first place glad to see you haven't lost your touch if there's one thing I'm good at its [ __ ] with Hoover's fairy brigade that's racist man am I gonna get a lot of mileage out on that line for this game patience I thought they fell apart after up a bucket down lucky for us they're back up yeah almost like killing the leader didn't automatically scatter their gang imagine that I want you to help me kill Salman Khan oh I see a few months ago you was trying to kill me he didn't try to kill you he was completely fooled by your act and let you go it was Baca that he came to kill that's how he killed my sister this trope is so overplayed in games that I'm numb to it at this point this is all I have left they should just start selling pocket watches and luck it's his vengeance insurance because all they seem to do is spur someone to take down your killer see the mr. bat out at him [ __ ] [ __ ] asses looks like we have a day thinner a sighting and for some reason he looks like Steve Harvey I swear that is a fetter Sam Gamgee he could want do sick warning you said wouldn't really change anything at this point he's already gone to ground after Lincoln took out his racket Santa's expecting someone to come after him hold on time and space need to change before my eyes so this mission can happen tonight not jarring at all this flooded amusement park ride still works it's also races as hell but the electricity still working as well bugs me you know it's actually really difficult to hang a person without tying their hands behind their back since dusa could easily climb into the ferris wheel compartment instead of choking to death they say you strung them up on the old ferris wheel that actually just happened so how do you already know about it looks like I got here just in time for you dope including Vito as a partner in crime feels like it's supposed to endear this game to fans of mafia 2 I'm guessing the devs didn't play to us this game with fans of mafia 2 link plus is possibly don't you dead come to think of it why did the Mafia believe Lincoln was dead after Georgie shot him his body would have been found along with the others anyone watching the news and know exactly who died and whose body was never found you know we're gonna play up to Leo in the Commission what casino you see that construction across the lake he's building a casino over there he wants to go legit turn the City of the Las Vegas gambling's illegal yeah no [ __ ] it's illegal which is why skater put your buddy you gets lost you wouldn't mark ah no need to get the laws change first before building a casino I mean that's both a huge financial risk of the new law fells the past and a big tail he's paying off politicians one-pointed you become aware that Salman Connor wanted to build a casino north of the city probably when they started building it it's nearly finished at this point you can't build a casino in a major city and not have people catch on you'll run it with me and here after a few years after I know everything settled down you'll take over find yourself a nice woman give me some [ __ ] grandkids if the whole reason marcano is building a casino so he can go legit and protect his son from a life of crime why did he have georgie steal money plates from the Federal Reserve the only reason you steal money plates is for counterfeiting which would indicate that he still intends to do illegal business in clay still alive does no one pay attention to the news in new Bordeaux I can clay he's just Christ on the cross now it's doing everything heard you were dead apparently not from what I can see at that car I think it's too late to fix it it looks like he pulled it from its feet right where it was set on fire here's a man who likes his explosive red barrels so much He wills the male before he comes under attack she was saved a bullet or two that's two for two when it comes to people running out of bullets when linking casually strolls up to them is he counting their shots why the hell does Lincoln have to meet his new lieutenants and a run down a plantation mansion in the middle of the bayou can they have used any of the many buildings they now own these two used to work for mark honor and this one do you know how many of my men this cannot kill cuz Makana told him to true they did but so did Lincoln and Lincoln killed a lot of your men as well and you trust him completely another military fellow your noggin with all manner of tactics and schemes but let's not overthink this [ __ ] he have a great ruse Houston shoot him shouldn't take more than an hour or so Burke has a perfectly fine idea for dealing with marcano man of course Lincoln shut it down because revenge Oh is needs to be Shakespearean what you think Oh happen after everybody else just gonna lay down and die you stupid ass [ __ ] Cassandra right just kill him all Cano doesn't get us anywhere one of his brothers to take over and right back where we started your goal is to kill marcano for killing Sammy and Ellis why would you care if someone else takes over after he's gone also what happened to your belief of the rest of the gang would scatter if you killed the person in charge first we go after his new tenants then once they're killed we seize their territory and move on to the Capel's at this point the game bogs down into a repetitive 10-hour slog of you doing the same throw away missions over and over again so you can unlock the actual story missions where you take down mark hunters lieutenants and Capo's it's about as fun as it sounds give you the plates too right I thought you know my killer robbery Adri what kind of one of the plates from the Federal Reserve Meccano had us robbed the Reserve so he could get his hand on a set of money plates Georgi must have grabbed him during the robbery if all marcano wonder from the Federal Reserve was the money plates why'd he have the black mob killed afterward the bank job paid off with the Odom and Georgie stole the plates while Lincoln's back was turned so they had no idea about it marcano Cottages left them alone and gone on with his business and nothing would have changed there's something that you need to hear you need to hear this cliche and in this case it's a wiretap in Spanish meaning Lincoln doesn't understand it so Donovan has a translate meaning he didn't need to hear it basically you scared the [ __ ] out of Alvarez he's ready to hightail it back to Cuba once his dear uncle's are Agha to come rescue it and what does a raga say Donovan doesn't finish telling Lincoln about the conversation between us araga and lburrows forcing Lincoln to ask where he needs to go to save Alvarez listen this ain't rocket science that [ __ ] [ __ ] got to Alvarez it means he knows about the plate he's gonna come after you understand get your ass down to that [ __ ] gym and protect them or remove the plate somewhere safe the Lincoln doesn't know about Tommy knew lincoln was coming for the plates but he felt he had to keep up appearances the second he started canceling fights and shutting the place down was the second people started thinking he was out of his League that doesn't stop him from moving the plates somewhere else we can has to know that they know that he's coming and they know what he looks like posing as a boxer should get him discovered as soon as he steps out of a locker room you must think I'm some kind of goddamn on coming in here like you did I'm honestly surprised after once the villains realized what the protagonist was up to - once in but then instead of shooting Lincoln dead they decide to pour gas all over him and set him on fire inside their own gym despite looking right at Lincoln these guys don't notice him sawing the rope and a pie in his back you are covered in gas striking that lighter would likely set you on fire as well doing this would also likely kill you since one spark is all would take to ignite the gas soaking you in fact I'm not sure how Lincoln got out of this burning building while being covered in gas without igniting that is some dumb cutscene over sight these two guys doing it in the bathhouse are both still in their boxers I'm not saying it's impossible to have sex while wearing your underwear but it wouldn't take that much effort on either of their parts to remove their underwear plus they're in a bath that's gonna get wet and clingy judging from my own experience mayonnaise is not something you bring to an orgy unless you're gonna be handing out turkey sandwiches I guess there are a lot of never nudes in new Bordeaux since they never take out their underwear even having sex and getting [ __ ] mafia threes Boober and drain technology is five years behind Metro last light the whole plan for dealing with Tony Marco knows bookkeeper was to hit him when he left his penthouse suite to deal with one of his lieutenants instead Donovan waited until Tony had already dealt with a guy and returned home meaning Lincoln has to shoot his way inside the hotel anyway which is something he could have done to begin with instead of destroying all Tony's rackets to draw him out Lincoln survives a rocket exploding right behind him all the important information is in the middle of the book Lachey Tony's legend last couple pages are pretty interested actually it's all in the middle of the ledger based on what Greco told me and Scaletta mikanos laying out a bunch of money to get gambling legalized if that's what you have to who better to have in your pocket then a judge on the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals no I think the governor or at least a couple legislators would be better than a judge a judge would have no say in changing the state law to allow gambling judges like that don't come cheap and with holding out of the picture sell had to find someone else to legalize gambling and that person was state senator Walter Jacobs why didn't he bribe the state senator first a judge is not how you turn to to rewrite state law they can only stop a current law that's been passed if they deem an unconstitutional state bans on gambling are not deemed to be unconstitutional you want to hear mark on otehr on Kalu a new one Donovan has bugs in mark hunters office how did he manage that and why isn't this used a greater effect Lincoln blows up the coal dumper while Lou's riverboat is still a good distance from it but it still manages to fall on it all the same Lincoln survives this [Music] I'm starting to believe this game was just an excuse to play the top 100 rock songs of the 60s mikanos a felon so he's gotta have a partner someone who's legit if he does have persons buried deep I went through the paperwork it's a goddamn maze which means we need to get Enzo to tell us who it is but you already know who all of Mar Connors partners are you had a detailed list of targets pinned onto a wall not to mention you have mark Connors office bugged you should know to get Duvall's name from anyone at this point that is a dick move that I'm pretty sure one Vietnam vet would not do to another Vietnam vet especially when he knows the other guy is packing a gun tell me who's behind the construction of McConnell's casino and I'll do what I can to keep that [ __ ] [ __ ] from killing you make me at the quarry meet me at the place where we'll be isolated and exposed for an ambush I know you you're Lincoln clay right lived with Sammy Robinson went off to NAMM that's right cry son if I'd have known that we could have saved ourselves a whole lot of trouble he still destroyed all of your mob rackets you should probably still be pissed at him despite knowing his surrogate father you know Remy Duval sure he's the big shot on the radio without him there's no casino he owns a land runs a construction company you name it and Meccano doesn't own any of the land no it all belongs to do Vow Marco knows casino seems like it was tailor-made to fail at this point he was building it on land he didn't own building it before the state laws were changed to allow gambling and was financing it with counterfeit money you need evolve the Jackass on the radio according to this he heads up the Southern Union in his spare time southern unions basically the [ __ ] clan which just makes you wonder while they didn't call the Klan since the game amid so they're just standings with a different name to avoid actually using the real KKK listen to this the way he's doing to us if it's possible to sneak in and bug the place that would have been a lot simpler to kill do ball there rather than piss him off enough to hold a cross-burning rally and kill him there he sent a message those [ __ ] and the guineas I'm not gonna lie one of my main reasons for playing this game was so I can hear nolan north droppin bombs well it's official nolan north is now Jesus somehow in my heart I think I always knew Steven is comin to town for the funeral I could arrange a meeting offer him a percentage of the casinos profits if he signs over the land yeah yeah that could work and then once he sighs we take care of him that's actually not a bad plan for getting him to sign Duvall's will entering the casino property over to you so instead of doing that they torture him before he executes the will instead of making a deal and killing him for a family they're in a KKK like group they certainly employ a lot of black people in their country club all right I'll take us in offer a level it has me dosing a funeral of a racer with LSD and seeing everyone lose their mind that is something I've never done before in a game thought you were gonna kill me you ain't worth the trouble are you kidding this is 2016 even though this game is set in 1968 and Lincoln has shown a lot of creativity and little mercy when it comes to killing people no way is he gonna do something so violent against a woman even if killing mark huh no his lieutenants is his whole plan I ain't asking you a second time that would mean this is the first time you've asked a garmo to sign over the casino property so you beat him half to death without giving him a reason wine before putting a pin in his hand and telling him to sign it so presumably won a mark on his men killed a living in her hospital bed after the funeral seems like a dumb thing to do since she didn't betray him and she was his last lieutenant however it does mean Lincoln gets to keep his hands conveniently clean in regards of violence against women you know little rampage is going to attract attention attention from people I don't care to associate with have any luck this would keep him off my ass he's already robbed a Federal Reserve murdered a judge and state senator and killed numerous mobsters killing one more mob boss at this point isn't gonna move the needle much they did myself yeah yeah just [ __ ] you one seriously why did you have Olivia killed she was on your side and doing your bidding you call up whatever men we still have left you tellin me to sup day at the casino and when Lincoln clay shows up we'll do everything we can to plant that goddamn [ __ ] in the ground right next door you should have tried to do something about Lincoln when you first learned that he was alive all you ever did was hire a hitman to try and kill him in a drive-by which failed miserably marcano just gives up and lets leak and kill him it seems to happen a lot recently especially when you encounter the villain in his office standing in front of a giant window choose your ending ending a as you leave town and not be a total [ __ ] ending being as you run your own criminal empire and you're an [ __ ] ending see as you kill your friends and you're a giant [ __ ] Giselle McConnell died I went to his file imagine my surprise when I saw your name over and over and over and over again the mom wanted Jack Kennedy Devin you more than willing to help man they sure was dumb of you'd hold a Senate hearing to the death of a mobster you work with to help kill JFK and yes this twist about Donovan's motivation comes at a left-field gentleman yeah I don't think you can shoot a US Senator inside the Capitol building and just walk out
