Unpopular Hitman Opinion
Maybe I put myself on thin ice now with this post 😅 But here are my personal unpopular opinions about the Hitman games!
The cutscenes from Hitman 2 are way better than the ones from Hitman 3
I know that many people didn't like the cutscenes from Hitman 2, especially comparing them to the ones from Hitman 2016. But compared to the cutscenes from Hitman 3, they are so much better. The quality of the Hitman 3 cutscenes is way behind this. Everyone is stiff, the mimic is stiff, the movements. They look like cutscenes from five years ago. The Hitman 2 cutscenes might be stills, but they are giving more emotions and depth (especially the Homecoming and the Untouchable cutscenes) than any cutscene from Hitman 3.
Hitman Blood Money and Hitman Absolution are the worst games of the franchise
Although Hitman 2 and Hitman Contracts were the first Hitman games I played, it was Absolution in particular that sparked my love for these games. Today, I can't play Blood Money or Absolution again. I think it was a bit due to the time back then; maybe they were trying to do some kind of Quentin Tarantino thing with the games and the humour in them. Looking back, it's just far too sexist and ridiculous for me and I probably wouldn't finish the games today.
I liked Diana more, when she was just a voice
Okay, this opinion is probably the most unpopular of all 🙈 And even though I liked Diana and her presence in the last games, I liked her character much more in the older games. Nobody knew who she really was or what she looked like, there was something so mysterious and secretive about it. She was someone important but nobody knew who she actually was and a lot was left to imagination. I think it made her much cooler than her presence in the last games.
Hitman 3 is the worst game of the whole World of Assassination trilogy
And I'm not (just) saying that because Grey dies in it 😅 His death itself isn't even the problem, it's the way he dies. It's just as stupid and far-fetched a decision as the rest of the story. The really ridiculous escape of the Constant, Grey's suicide, Diana's betrayal (which is just warmed up coffee). In addition to the bad story, I also find the levels far less good than in Hitman 2, for example. Dubai is far too small and the Carpathian Mountains are not a real Hitman level for me, but rather a predetermined route to get to the (bad) end. I also don't like the briefings, everything seems so jumbled up and doesn't fit in so nicely with the first two games.
I hate the goofy outfits
I hate all of them 😐 The Flamingo, the Clown, Santa. I don't find them funny and I never wear them if I don't have to. Maybe it's just not my kind of humour. But I like my 47 in tailored suits and expensive designer clothes 😌
Do you have any unpopular opinions for the Hitman Franchise?

They’ll never do a Hitman level set in a Furry Convention because gamers would absolutely ruin it but imagine. like the target isn’t a furry he just owns a hotel that happens to have one every year but you can disguise yourself in a fursuit and some guy will ask you “what species is your sona” and 47 would be like “a wolf. i always felt a connection with…hunters.” and then diana would be like “let’s see if you can sniff out some information, furrty-seven” and then he comes to my house and kills me for writing this

I think Agent 47 should be more popular on Tumblr.com. He's right up our alley.
He's a canonically asexual aromantic who kills billionaires for a living.
He's an amoral old man.
The barcode on the back of his head leads to a dildo shop.
He is inexplicably skilled in every job he could possibly need for a disguise to work. Drumming? Check. Doctoring? Sure. Clowning? You bet your ass.
He cannot resist the urge to make thinly veiled death jokes when talking to his targets. His go-to alias is "Tobias Rieper".
His wife locked him in the basement until he upped his billionaire killing quota.
He's canonically responsible for killing Harry and Marv from Home Alone.
He once bludgeoned Santa Claus unconscious with a brick and stole his clothes. He then stole his sleigh to escape the crime scene.
Some of his most notable escapes include riding away on the backs of dolphins, putting on a flamingo suit and flying away like a bird, and letting himself get abducted by aliens. Among others.
He's a canonical lesbian ally. In one case, he gave a girl a pep talk for her upcoming date and in another he saved a lesbian couple about to get married from a serial killer.
He's a tri-racial icon with five dads.
Nearly every NPC he passes remarks about how attractive he is. Including men.
Autism icon. In my heart.

Of course Lara Croft is more iconic than Mario, Sonic, Link and the rest, you can cry about it all you want in the replies on Twitter but it's the truth.
She's the most successful woman to ever hit video games.
She jump-started the action adventure genre.
She revolutionised 3D gaming.
She inspired tons of imitations and her likeness (dual pistols, long braid, blue tank top + brown pants combo) continues to be applied to various degrees in female characters to this day.
She has stayed relevant across decades.
She was the very first and only video game character to become a pop culture icon and be treated as a celebrity in the 90s, appearing in magazine covers, advertisements for Séat, Lucozade, Visa etc., touring with U2 and having her own publicist.
She has won multiple Guinness awards.
She has been portrayed by two Hollywood-winning actresses.
Her games have been extremely successful, both critically and commercially, and she has outlived her main and only competitor, Nathan Drake.
Lara Croft IS video games. It's just facts
