Skillup's review was concerning - only 2-3 hours total of action/combat. Definitely waiting on impressions.

I mean depends if you can turn every stealth moment into an action moment or if you have fail state for going out of stealth.

So in theory every sandboxe area could be action or stealth depend on what you chose.

It all depend on how strict the mission design is, in hitman you could decide to just kill everyone and be done with it but if this is more cinematic, maybe you have more forced stealth segments.

Only done the first mission and basic training but this game is amazing so far. Really polished, the "basic training" mission was fucking awesome, really good cinematic presentation, slick and satisfying melee combat and smooth controls. Im gonna love this

 

[Ðuelist]

I still feel this game will bomb sales wise

Why can't you just be happy a good game has been released?

I will be getting this once I finish Saros. Last boss then Crimson Desert update.

In that same review, he talks about how it's extremely rare that the game ever punishes you for initiating combat. Like you said, combat IS the fail state on stealth segments.

Hoping for the best here as huge bond and uncharted series fan, dont trust most of reviewers, especially big outlets with known terrible record but still im cautiosly optimistic, more than before 4sure

 

[Elios83]

Got this preordered already so I'm really happy to see it's another great title to play as I expected.
I've also just finished Saros so I'll immediately jump into this.

 

[MiguelItUp]

This is awesome to see. I feel like we haven't seen a game like this do this well in the AAA space in a very, very long time.

They already redeemed Absolution with Hitman 2016 and then that trilogy of World of Assassination.

Nah those were sandbox style games. Absolution tried to be Splinter Cell.

Two details I've noticed about the generic gameplay.

The handmaiden doesn't even have peripheral vision; she's looking right where Bond is walking and doesn't even notice him.

And what bothers me most is how Bond closes doors with the Force.

He doesn't touch the doorknob at any point; he simply puts his hand near it and the door closes.

These are details that, even in 2026, are starting to make me tired of lazy developers.

Is the doorknob in the room with us right now?

No ray tracing on the left ass cheek. Slop confirmed.

Amazing path tracing on her penis in the following scene however.

Modern audience approved

 

[Buggy Loop]

wouldn't F Doll be the other way around where the woke would just say she is just a sex object.

They would and I would laugh at them. Just like I'm sure the youtube dwellers will call this woke if she ever fucking punch a dude in those 15+ hours and I would laugh too

No ray tracing on the left ass cheek. Slop confirmed.

Path tracing ass cheeks will be worth the wait

How long to complete the game ? I've read 12/13hrs on twitter. That's much lower than the 20 hrs announced.

 

[GloveSlap]

Impressive scores. I'll add it to the "when it hits $20-$30" pile. Hopefully you can increase the difficulty to make the AI less braindead than i saw in the previews.

I had innacourse with a lady just now in game.

Niiiiice.

For me it looks great, and has held 60 frames per second the whole time. There is a digital foundry thread you can look into to get the full details.
