Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
You need to enable Legacy Components - Directplay for this to work, but in my case when I try that all I get is error code 0x80070057 despite deactivating all antivirus software. I see some Windows 10 users say they get this to work, but the Steam page for this game says it's not compatible for Win10 x64 users.
I'd love to try the game but it's not going to work with my system and GoG does not state that. If I'm just being a dumbass incapable of troubleshooting effectively let me know, but I shouldn't need to make a new partition running an older version of Windows just to play the game. That's kinda the point of GoG.
Mafia is broken. In many ways.
The game itself, awesome. Great story, weird voice acting but a nice cinematic feel. Gameplay feels good, the city has a great atmosphere. But the game is, unfortunately, an utterly gruesome mess to play.
First, bugs.
I've played the game back then and I can't recall this happening, but I had to rely on dowloaded savegames four times already because four times the missions were broklen. Steal a car, it doesn't spawn. Talk to a NPC, he is stuck in an animation and cannot be talked to. Stuff like this.
Then, difficulty.
There are games that should be punishing, because some players like a challenge.
Then there are games that should not be, because the main theme is not the challenge but the cinematic gameplay.
Mafia is a game that should be fair and fun to play. It is not.
Play the first mission. Run away. Behind you, shots. The shots are kind of random because of the massive recoil - so, sometimes you die. In this kind of tutorial. Not by your fault, but by chance.
Play any mission: Get shot two or three times, die. Repeat the last few minutes for you cannot save.
Play any mission with other characters: They are not helping, they are trying to fail you. Your friends run blindly into fire and draw attention of several enemies at once, so that you can be sure to fail the mission a few times because your friends died.
In short: Every time you have fun, you have to pay for it with frustration. Every memory of a good time gets overshadowed with a memory of rage.
I love this game. I really do.
But I hate to play it. It feels like it is made to punish you. To make you fail. Way more than to be fun.
Watch reviews and playthroughts. Enjoy the atmosphere. But don't try to play it.
I remember this game had great story line but control was a bit bad in comparing it to game 2, unfortunatly I could not play this release of the game as the car is very very slow moving, issue with my graphic settings probably but it seam not to run that great so I would go for game 2 in the series instead (just a recomendation) found the story a bit worse in that game but game play so much nicer (The cars specially) Game 3 though I would skip as I myself found it pretty borring -So In my opinion the second game in the series was best in my opinion just for gameplay ,But story line in the first game is great but as said gameplay not so much, so I'll give this game a two stars only, mostly because game play lacking -not working good on higher resolution-, my set up nvidia 1050ti oc 4Gig ,i7 4770, 16Gig Ram ...resolution 1920x1080., But I bought it at a pretty low price so no big deal, I'm sure there are some manual settings to fix the car issue on Higher graphic (Framerate), but as said control feel old and second game better control (better gameplay worth)
