Mafia vs Mafia 2
At the time of the release of the first part of the cult for gamers, the CIS of the game I was still in the project. I came along a year later. And just try to blame my age, just take this as what I'll be looking at the game not through the prism of nostalgia.1. Plot.
Fans of the first part, the second accused in a bad story. Of course, the second half of the second half and makes you wonder what the writers were just able to squeeze out a plot. However, it is good, and moreover, interesting.
Now, let us examine the first part. The plot is very often stitched with white thread. So many inconsistencies. And the whole drama is that the hero, to which we are accustomed, kill. And even not one but two.But that was some kind of magic.
The bottom line: if you really delve into the stories, you can find the same number of inconsistencies.
The second part I give points for an interesting plot, and the first for an unexplained magic.
2. The graphics and animations.
No, I'm not going to compare this criterion between the two games, because it's very silly. I will compare with other games released at that time to determine how match these two games its time.
Both games I'll compare with two parts of another, no less famous series: GTA 3 & GTA 4.
2.1. Mafia.
GTA 3 then bypasses the first part in the richness and clarity of the pictures. You can blame everything on the budget, but then I compare the first part with the first max Payne, which was created in the garage and came out much before the first Mob.
2.2. Mafia 2.
There is already ambiguous. There the picture is very beautiful. The animation is the same.
Summary: the second part is still beautiful, needless to say, it is then up to their time, and gets the point.
3. The city and the atmosphere.
Again, fans of the first part had harsh words about the city and the atmosphere in the second part, relying on the fact that he is lifeless, the atmosphere in General, they say, is not transferred. To these idiots I will say that the atmosphere 30-ies do not. But there is atmosphere, fully corresponding to the time of the second part: the military time and time rock-n-roll. The city is not lifeless and very beautiful, which can, incidentally, take a walk and buy a hot dog and Shine your shoes.
What is the city in the first part? Lowpoly and really dead. The atmosphere he really passes on 4+.
The result: both parts get a point for the atmosphere, and the second another ball for city.
Itaide: the second part was originally conceived as a grandiose project, but time and budget has put all the Grand achievements under the knife, including the plot. It took cold, because the expectations were paramount.
Despite this, the second part won in my comparison that. again, mine.
Oh, you missed a lot. ))) All you have formulated from the position in 2017. But this is not entirely correct.

I like that the audience is more adequate than peekaboo.
However, I would compare games according to the time.
The wintry atmosphere of Empire Bay is just gorgeous.I'd like almost the entire game, run in a winter city.Summer of the 50's sucked a lot less.

I agree, and not only on peekaboo. But you're still a little here done enough of this here. Here, too, not Eden, but better than many sites. And compare the game 2002 game 2010... Sorry. The only thing I can say about Doom 3 that it is relevant today, still playable.
The first painfully curve (even then, it seemed) and the second was happy. Kraicher
From the position of the year 2017 - Fallout 2. It's funny, though, and are a huge fan of the RPG genre, this game always avoided. Consciously sat down only recently, and to great surprise, it turned out that I in this most RPGs and didn't play at all - a definite masterpiece.
From the position of the year 2015 - Sillent Hill 1 - first launch and inexpressible delight. + a lot of examples.
Maybe it is not quite correct, but the fact of the fact.
The first part is sunk into the soul, the characters for which you experience, the music in the game is a masterpiece. Great mission variety, with different endings. That's exactly it wants to revisit now, not the second.

And hard to see that trailer, I compared the compliance with their time!? And M1, I compared with other games of the time.
Why all of a sudden decided that I was compared with the positions of 2017? I clearly said that comparing the graphics and pattern of behaviors is silly.
What can I say. The first part of mafia is definitely better from the point of view probablky of the plot and the atmosphere. Very detailed raskryta the lives of these mafia families and how it personally affects the hero. Detail shows how it is changing. In the second part of the topic of the mafia families affected poverhnostei. Roughly speaking, they show the main character, who just wants to live richly and uses the family as an opportunity to earn. There being no contentious spirit that permeated the first part. However, in the second mafia is very well revealed that is the friendly relations, which also gives the game its highlights.

I think the opposite.
