I liked the gameplay. The "x-ray vision" that draws patrol routes is supposed to be called "instinct mode" or something like that, and quite frankly, it, for the most part, is reasonable. You're not forced to use it, and its there for players who aren't so good. It provides an assist to not-so-great players, but if you don't need it, go challenge yourself further. I couldn't see anything to tell me there isn't regenerating health. I find that unfortunate, but so be it. Like previous installments, Agent 47 feels powerful, but isn't god-like, and you need the stealth to get through on harder difficulties. A very hard balance to strike in games like this. I don't see whats so bad. I mean, you could be a bullet-sponge in previous games too. Looks alright to me.Raiyan 1.0 said:

And this wall of complaints, forumites, is why I bash my head into the wall when people judge a game based on a trailer, especially a theatrical trailer.UnderCoverGuest said:
We may be commenting on a news story about a trailer, but there is a 17min gameplay video out there. I think it's enough to draw some conlusions from. And the info is well sourced from comments made by IO (see the game's wiki page for citations).MisterDyslexo said:
If we all judged games based on the first fifteen minutes, a lot of people would have never played Mass Effect or Dragon Age Origins. You probably would have ditched Hitman Blood Money. I mean, do you remember that first level? It was a tutorial. Just like this is just a little PR show-off tutorial-esque video. And I can not stress it enough, don't knock it until you've tried it. People might grief over "x" or "y", but when they get to try it, they like it more than ever before. Not all change is bad, you know. Without attempts to make the game better, it stagnates. And true, "better" is different for everybody, but ultimately if you're intelligent you'll judge it for yourself when the game is actually out. Otherwise, you'll be like all the other people who shriek and cry when a game changes from its formula even slightly, because its stagnating among the greater playerbase, and bring about the series' demise.EvilPicnic said:

Hopefully they'll be scared off that idea by the massive backlash against the abortion that was Deus Ex: Revolutions Boss fightsInGrindWeTrust said:
They already had massive backlash from mandatory action scenes from the first two Hitman games. It's a mistake they haven't made since.gyroscopeboy said:
