I was really shocked I had to cast my vote to bring BM up to the level of absolution.
Absolution offered a narrative that divided opinions among fans. Many appreciated the compelling story to stay engaged, while others criticized its handling of stealth and detection. The game excelled in sneaking, conflict resolution, and discovery mechanics, though it struggled with visibility for players using disguises. Adjusting the game to a purist approach seemed to improve that issue. For newcomers, starting with earlier entries is recommended, gradually advancing. Contracts provides a solid foundation in graphics, gameplay, core story, and mechanics, while also delivering a reasonable overview of 47’s past. Blood Money enhances the experience with deeper context on "The Agency."
In the meantime, we anticipate another update that aims to return to a straightforward "kill contracts" framework centered around Absolution for gameplay. However, I’m not entirely convinced—Hitman seems like a young character (seriously, in the storyline he’s in his 50s or older), and it’s supposed to evolve from Absolution, which feels like a story point we haven’t yet understood.
