The editors didn't like
AI can be difficult to predict
Wasted time on trial and error in higher difficulty modes
Overlapping action buttons (e.g. triangle)
Several missions feel limited and uninspired. Instinct mechanic hurts the series' feel. Story is bland and uninteresting
Abstract: It’s weird watching game worlds get smaller as technology gets better: it’s no surprise that early footage of Hitman: Absolution showed a game that was more linear and ‘corridor’-like than previous iterations, as the reality isn’t so far from the truth...

What hurts Hitman: Absolution the most, in my mind, is its lack of identity. Creating a Hitman title that's accessible to a wider audience is certainly an admirable goal, but that comes at the sacrifice of the franchise's identity. Gameplay that allows th...
