In addition to the questionable subject of contract killing, critics emphasize the shooter component: As with classic first- person shooters ( Half-Life, Quake ), it is possible to simulate mass murder by shooting around wildly – in most missions, the target is faster in this way and thus reached the transition to the next mission, even if the game penalizes this with a very bad rating by the player. You see the attraction of Hitman Absolution series primarily in the great freedom of action with which you can achieve the objectives in this way, that is, a variety of solutions are offered for most missions, in which the objective can be silently neutralized, ideally without harming other game characters (innocents or even bodyguards of the target person). With the first part of the Hitman series, a new type of computer game protagonist appeared in 2000: the player slips into the role of a bald contract killer who was literally only born to kill for money.įans of the game series emphasize the stealth component: the best rating for a mission is given when as few shots as possible (preferably none at all) are fired from a weapon and the hitman remains camouflaged until the end of the mission.
