I finished my first run through Hitman 3, now doing some of the various challenges and escalations and trying out the freelancer mode.

Not gonna spoil anything, but the story was largely disappointing after the first, however, the level design is still pretty great, although there are certainly highs and lows, with the final level being by far the worst in the entire trilogy.

Freelancer mode is so-so. I like the idea, but the execution is occasionally a bit questionable. Whenever you start a contract, you spawn randomly at one of the entrances, which can either ruin your chances at completing the additional assignments or even ruin your run altogether (and jeopardize your entire campaign). There's no saving your game either, so when you fuck up, that's it.
