The OG of OGs, The progenitor, THE game changer, it's really good if you consider yourself a game historian or retro game enthusiast and you haven't played it, i'm sorry my friend, but you are a fraud.
it's an ok, highly linear stealth stealth game, not much more than that, and it can't fall back on the story, because the Hitman franchise has never really had a good story, it is fun though
easily the best Hitman game up until the most recent one and, it actually runs straight out of the box! unlike the first three games in the series, which are a nightmare to get running in 1080p without modern system, old game bugs
*worst of the original Hitman Trilogy (H2:SA, H:C and H:BM (not H:C47 and Absolution it don't count)) you'll want to spend a little while getting this game to run perfectly on modern systems**, but once you get past that, it's quite an enjoyable stealth game. **e.g. the entire game's lighting system being so dark that from 75% of view angles, people looked textureless (fixed by changing the light detail to a ludicrous number)
I would recommend watching Monotonal Lizard's review before buying, it's long, but that way you'll know what to expect, i also spent a while trying to get it to work in 1080p with a usable draw distance. yeah, this game is weird, and also really janky, it's fun, but not really as a hitman game, the stealth is mostly just kill this guy, hide him and take his clothes and now you're undetectable.
press Scroll Lock, which will open up the debug menu, then enter the debug tab and turn info to on, then press esc. you will have keep it on for about the entire time you are in missions though. hope this helps The game is amazing though, atmosphere is perfect, gameplay is classic hitman, detection system is better than H2:SA and the remade levels are significantly better (except the Hong Kong ones)
