I tend to think of theMafiaseries as a sleeping giant.
But the numbers don’t point to that.
The three Mafia games have very poor Metacritic scores, logging just 66, 74, and 68 respectively.
Compare that to Max Payne, which enjoyed scores of 89, 86, and 86.
These things play in different leagues.
But okay, Max Payne was just an example picked out of the air.
So what does this mean for Mafia?
Does Mafias Past Influence Its Future?
The obvious answer is ‘nothing’.
Of course, even beyond that, the answer is ‘nothing’.
You may not have heard this, but games journalists get things wrong sometimes.
It could also make it safer, retreating from the open-world change of pace that saw Mafia 3 fail.
I’m acasual Dynasty Warriors fan, and found Origins to be enjoyable,scoring it a 3.5/5 myself.
Descriptors you could easily apply to the Mafia series.
Maybe it’s because it’s an underdog.
Maybe it’s just because I like Mafia.
The point is, if Hangar 13 feels it has a point to prove, it’s right.
Now all that’s left is for the game to deliver.
