Highly disappointed in my first ever visit to the Hitman series, though I am aware future titles are much better.

Terrible controls though they can be remapped, horrible camera, constant bugs and crashing, though the crashing may be due to Windows 10 compatibility.

Biggest issue with this game though is the very annoying trial and error style of game play, which wouldn't be such an issue if this game wasn't secretly linear.

I mean this game is secretly linear because they give you these open levels where it seems like a sandbox and you can do whatever you want, yet every mission is made with a highly specific method of performing the mission in mind. If you stray off this course, you shall suffer. This leads to the type of game that makes you want to have a walk through with you at all times, and I personally hate games like that.

The music and aesthetics are pretty banging though, and the idea is still very novel and cool. I just wish everything, and I mean everything, was done better.
