RE: Alekhine`s Gun DLC
I'll be honest with you guys. Totally honest. Here is my take on the Alekhine's Gun situation.

I love this game. Loved it. I enjoyed it more than Hitman 6 and I say that with complete sincerity. This game is an indie gem.

However, there is a sad truth about the matter.

The game doesn't have a big "presence" in North America, it didn't sell very well, reviews tarnished its public opinion. I personally
had no issues with the performance or design. But it seems that reviewers all over Steam complained about crashes/bugs/etc.

Because of all this, I fear that there will never be a sequel or anything to follow-up this game with. Which means that as time goes on the only thing we'll have to get our "disguise stealth" fix for gameplay is the Hitman series and Death to Spies + MoT.

I pray that I'm wrong. And that the game did sell well enough to warrant a sequel. I want more.

Even if you guys keep the same engine, scripting, and everything and just release a "level pack" where Strogov has to assassinate more targets in diverse new maps I will happily pay for it. Like 3-4 new levels, new disguises and new settings. Same gameplay.

It seems no-one has the time nor the skill to make new levels. This is not a complaint, just a statement. We can give minor tweaks here and there, but the only way to get new levels would be from the Dev team themselves.

Of course, there are some flaws with the game but I can excuse 90% of them due to the indie nature. The graphics, lighting, animations, UI, and everything is excellently made. The only gripe I have is that the missions seem to deteriorate in quality towards the end.


Other than that, an excellent game. Truly one of my favourites and something I'll treasure because I accept the sad truth I'll never see a game like it again.
