Discussion I swear it’s all I’ve been seeing.

Don’t get me wrong, the game ain’t perfect but I’m not letting small imperfections ruin my entire experience.

I said it once and I’ll say it again. The driving is peak.

The story meets the standard for the Mafia series so y’know, it’s good.

The shooting is really good and yes it is better than all the other mafia games and also better than RDR2 and GTA V.

How is it better? Well, first of all, when it comes to shooting in RDR2, as the player, you don’t really feel the weight of the gun you are shooting.

Basically in RDR2 and GTA, it just feels like you’re shootings airsoft guns but mafia: the old country actually feels more realistic and I feel more immersed when it comes to gunplay and I don’t doubt other games also have better gunplay than Mafia: the old country but, I can’t speak on those because I haven’t played them.

To be fair, nobody, not even me, should be comparing Mafia the old country to other games outside of the Mafia series.

This isn’t me being ignorant also. The games has flaws. I definitely think it holds the game back to an extent but then again, consider the fact that this isn’t another Mindseye or Ubisoft game or activision game… and it does what it what all mafia games set out to do? Then you can’t complain too much.

Wtf did you say about rdr2? I agree with a lot of what you’re saying but this is a reach my man.

yeah, that point was kinda stoopid. i think in red dead you at least have propper control over the shooting and arthurd at least doesn't hold a gun like he is lethally drunk. And in general it's fun to shoot in red dead, meanwhile it's mostly infuriating in mafia the old country.

RDR & GTA: Gun is stable and doesn't move to much

Mafia: Slightly move the joystick and the aim feels like you're waving your arm around
