47 went from looking like a paper mache mask in the first couple of games, to looking like aging Voldemort in Absolution, to being a photo model level handsome in the latest trilogy. Now that's character development.
Exactly 💯💯 especially with agent 47
the thing that's a little weird is that they've de-aged him quite a bit. 47 is *supposed to be* 58yrs old, but in the trilogy they sort of de-age him to 35-40. Which is Fine, but it seems weird to me. I would love a game where 47 is depicted as properly older, but i know that probably won't happen
@@phoenixelysiaI think the trilogy is suppose to act as a reboot in a way. 47 having the tattoo on the back of his head is proof of that since 47 scraped it off the back of his head in absolution.
@@kamikazehound3243 It IS a reboot. The first game of the trilogy clearly also being the early days of his ICA work. I think Harry didn't dig enough into checking the dates each contract occurred to ensure the most concise timeline possible.
@@CommanderRedEXE after looking through countless cutscences and breaking down what is in the series the new hitman series (I think) is supposed to be set in a later timeline , maybe they retattooed the barcode or IOI forgot that happened but 100% supposed to be set in a later timeline
Anything with a series that has lore to be compiled and explained, please don't hesitate to make these videos even if they aren't horror based. These kinds of content are amazing to watch.
Even with several videos, i still had a stroke with the metal gear story So maybe not anything lol
Agreed! I seriously enjoy these long form videos with important cut scenes spliced.
Look up 'The Professional' if interested in lore videos he makes a lot of them
I agree
@El saucio It's pretty simple once you get passed the clones, it's just One country racing to build war machines
I absolutely adore the damsel in distress that is Agent Smith. He's one of my favourite running jokes in a game series.
“You‽ I might have known…”
Second only to Johnny Akiba, the serial shitter in the Metal Gear Solid franchise. Dude literally gets caught with his pants down every single time. 😅
I think he is in hitman 3 Ambrose isle
@@cjmannonEven before that 😂 he is in Hokkaido inside the morgue.
What I like most is the voice actor for 47, he has never changed and its like an iconic protagonists voice like max payne or even Duke nukem, lucas grey also had an awesome voice, I just wish we had more moving cutscenes with him
If you want to see him in his greatest role look up "david bateson moonshine"
@@MrDaros89 you mean the moonshiners ad he did? 😂 That is pretty epic never knew about it, thankyou 🤣
Fun fact: there was so much turmoil with IOI and (I think) their parent company at the time they were developing Hitman 2 (2018) that it ALMOST got shelved. This is one of the reasons they had to save their budget for the gameplay and have still cutscenes. The game is so well polished outside of that that most people would never realise. Glad it did well and gave IOI the independence they needed to make more Hitman!
@@kabirhanspal5363 and now they'll also do James Bond 007
I was really intrigued by Lucas Grey and how different he is from 47. He has hair, a beard, a NAME! And a specific accent. I never played the games, but it's cool to see how Lucas has somewhat 'normalized' over the years, whereas 47 still seems fresh out of the test tube by comparison.
It took me up until now to realize how well written Hitman series actually are. Amazing stuff
Everything but Absolution really
@Pladamir Vutin I feel like absolution was good for what it was, but they definitely should've not made it a full hitman game
@@shoreZ alright kiddos, absolution is a good game, but not a good “hitman” style game.
@@lintlickers yeah it was a little over the top and cringe at times but it's too late to erase from the nostalgia tank
@Buis Bo i look forward to the witch trials
The voice actors of World of Assassination are impeccable. Grey, Burnwood, Edwards and 47 of course are just fantastic.
I'm still bummed that they never cast David Bateson as 47 for the original 2007 Film.
@@paulstein8854 there has also been another one around 2015, which also starred a different actor and even goofier storyline.
factual. 47; calm and calculated, monotone, but you can always tell his emotion Grey; sounds like he's had battle scars and sounds very similar to 47 Diana; very similar voice to 47 Edwards; nasally voice with obvious emotion, and VERY unique as a villain.
Agreed, lucas grey's voice is incredible
@@zeropoint7051 Edwards sounds completely emotionless like a robot
I like how 47 is one of the few characters where in the case of "two boys who became something like brothers after growing up together but one of them believes violence gets things done quicker and cleaner", 47 is the violent one. There's not many stories where the violent one is the protagonist.
While true, this often means the non-violent option was WORSE than violence, like mind-control, fate-worse-than-death, and etc.
Technically both of them are violent
Seeing 47´s emotional side disappear through the games is flawless. IOI really managed to pull of a incredibly hard task, that is making a TRILOGY of a game series that had essentially been ended.
True. I think after contracts, his resolve really hardened and he became a lot more cynical.
@@JonathanSmith-kz2joI think he became like that after Absolution. He still shows an emotional side to Victoria. And considering there's a large timeskip between Absolution and the first game in the WoA trilogy, it's possible.
@@mercenarydelta7351 i imagine Victoria hits a trigger for 47. you can hear in the objectives for absolution that hes really off kilter for most of the game.
I like that Arthur was more scared of losing who is than actually dying. In a way it is like dying without actually dying, like killing someone's soul but their body still lives. If you kill him, he dies having everything, being at his highest point in life, but injecting him ends up with him living the rest of his life at his lowest point having nothing. The assassin shows there are fates worse than death.
i loved that the developers included that ending , its insane when u think how Arthur truly only cared about his power in providence and 47 took it all away which was so much better than ending his life esply after the line "atleast i die knowing who i am"
He would have died anyway, being left on a frozen mountain
The death of personality was actually a medical procedure on Babylon 5. One time a murderer had his mind wiped and was re-educated as a monk. It came down to expediency.
It also leaves the potential to bring him back since it's been established that there's an antidote.
@lumoneko299 true, however hes on a train in the middle of nowhere probably surrounded by dozens of corpses of providence members. Ether also did lose their only antidote in Johannesburg, and probably wont be able to develop a new one considering the lab was blown up
Thank goodness you've made this. I've always liked these games but never completely followed the story
That's basically me. Not really keeping up with the story and just playing. I'm basically that meme: "I don't know who I am, I don't know why I'm here - all I know is that I must kill"
This and GTA3 were the games that I played as a teen and never realized there was a story
@@prowlingmonkey did you play San Andreas or Vice City
@@HunterJG12 not till much later
Me too bro:D😅😅😅😅
Something about the Constant's voice just hits a sweet spot for me. Dramatic enough to fit in with the super cinematic angle the new trilogy took, but also has a little bit of scheming cartoon evil to resemble cheesy 2000's game villains. That's a sentiment I find pretty consistent through the whole series. Every entry seems to be just cheesy enough to come off as self aware, while still keeping you interested in the fiction. I love it.
It's the fact he is always so calm
Reminds me of The G Man from Half Life.
He reminds me of Mycroft and professor Moriarty from Sherlock
i grew up playing hitman games i have a special fondness for the whole series and oh my god that hitman 2 ending scene "untouchable" where its revealed that 47 killed diana's family have stuck with me over the years i still go back to it from time to time. such a great series and thank you for making me relive it again
seeing 47 smirk slighty after diana says "no one is untouchable" at the end game cutscene made me smile so hard man this series is one of my favourites in gaming
WAIT WHAT WHY That threw me
26:54 [CODENAME 47] is one of the most tragic characters of gaming. He's a professional, the best of the best in this world. He was literally designed to kill. As such, he can never really retire as a Silent Assassin and start a new life without endangering the normal people he's close to. Father Vittorio is the proof of that fact and Agent 47 has no choice but to accept that fate. So rather than endanger his friend any longer, 47 gave up on trying to find Absolution and sticks to what he's good at. _Assasinations. Contracts. And Blood Money..._
You might say that he lives in a world of assassination he can't escape from.
Hitman: And Blood Money
why did i shed a tear
John wick
Nah he just likes using the silverballers
- over hour long video - favourite storyteller - one of my favourite stories - one of my favourite games BEST VIDEO EVER. Thank you Harry

@@jakubl8917true
So sad Subject 6's story in this franchise was so short. He was the only friend of 47, Diana is as well, but she's different... she didn't go through the same torture.
Damn thats crazy i didnt know 47 had an opiate addiction. Having struggled with it a long time myself due to chronic backpain thats super relatable. His discription of the withdrawals is spot on too i get the exact same symptoms the vivid nightmares and anxiety are the worst part honestly i can deal with physical pain but mental pain and distress is fucked. I can totally see why 47 would have a very hard time getting clean especially when you've had a super traumatic life on top of pain that needs killing. Thats literally the exact situation im in, its so wierd I've played hitman my whole life and always felt such a deep connection with 47. Finding out we share the same addiction to deal with our pain and trauma just makes so much sense its a trip to think about. This reminds me of a quote from a interview with 47's voice actor David Bateson where he basically was saying 47 started off as a fictional emotionless programed killing machine but over the years through the shared experiences and soul of everyone who has ever worked on 47, played the game, lived in his shoes, and became 47 he has become real. He is the sum of everyone whos lives he has been a part of. Hes full of humanity, thought, belief, soul, and emotion. 47 is as much a part of us as we are a part of him. He is more than any one person he is an immortal entity of collective consciousness. Love to anyone who reads this, Happy Hunting. Amazing video btw top notch
When did they speak of his opiate addiction I missed it I’m currently on methadone so it interests me too
@@LK-em1bv @40:36 from the Damnation novel, there's a subplot where he opens up to a targets personal assistant who used to have a heroin problem about it and makes friends with her
@@LK-em1bv It was in that hitman damnation novel 40:30
Ngl I'm sure that's very moving but I'm not reading all of it.
It's fun seeing how game graphics evolved over the years for cutscenes and ingame. Thanks for the video, good work.
Yeah, it's a shame funding got pulled towards the end, but it looks good, better then nothing.
@@RedDragon-og8wn At least Square Enix gave the hitman rights back to IOI so they could continue making games their way
One of my favorite parts of these type of videos is that, seeing the graphics evolve. It’s truly incredible isn’t it? I just started gaming again after taking many years off. I moved, got a PS5 and am currently gathering parts to build a relatively nice gaming pc, cause … ya know,, peer pressure lol. But anyway, it’s videos like this that help me get caught up on all the things I’ve missed as well as expose me to the things I need to know. Excited to see where things get taken over the next few years, should be amazing
Very timely, as very soon the "Freelancer" mode of Hitman 3 will be coming out and I believe it's simply Diana and 47 working together as a freelance assassin pair after the ICA was again dismantled.
I’m loving Freelancer. Although I’m a bit shit unlike 47 so I keep failing before reaching the end of my first campaign 😂 so I lose my equipment and have to start over. At least the Safehouse mastery is persistent so I’m just persevering so I can upgrade my house 😂
@@Aarkwrite I thought I'm a good Hitman player, until I played the freelance mode. 😂
@@brixfrancis1234 just wait till you get a silenced pistol, sometimes an assassin will drop one that’s how I got mine. Haven’t died since.
@@Aarkwrite don’t worry. Freelancer is destroying all the confidence I had in myself as a Hitman player.
@@Bofa_Deez Assassins will always drop one. You might have been killing lookouts
REALLY appreciate the mission cut to the Hitman 2016 cinematic. I barely played any Hitman pre-WoA so it was so damn cool to see that the cinematic were referencing previous lore. :) Also, I just love Arthur Edwards last play: "Why not erase your memory and become a thoughtless killing machine?" "No." "Well, I'm out of ideas..."
I'm geniunly impressed, I've played through every Hitman game that was released, and I knew the story, but I've never been able to explain it coherently to anyone. Yet you managed to sum it all up in order perfectly. Great video!
I love how the story is told in the new trilogy, through many NPC dialogues. It's a shame so many people don't pay attention to the story when they play it.
I always do, Story and Music are the most Important for me to even start playing the game
I’ve been obsessed with the recent Hitman trilogy since 2020 and know the story, but am happy to watch this from start to finish because I love the videos you make. Thank you for making this.
Chump , ive been playing since 2005
Dude you don’t have to subject yourself to strictly horror based stories. Your videos, especially these long form ones, are one of the few things that help me get through my work days. I don’t watch your videos for horror, I watch your videos because you do a fantastic job explaining and covering whatever game you’re covering. And I really appreciate you for that. Hitman is one of my favorite series ever, and after watching/listening to this I came out knowing more than I thought I did! Great job!
This always makes you wonder how many other clones are still in the wild, that escaped the Asylum. Silent Assassin was my introduction to the series. Since then I've been HOOKED! My absolute favorite game series, makes you think on how to proceed to reach your targets, etc etc. I loved that newspaper bit they did in Blood Money too.
Huuuuuuuuuuge congratulations for making this video. This looked like a huge script to handle but you nailed it. I loved all the Hitman games and revisiting the entire story like this brought back a lot of good memories. From agent 47's "birthplace" (Romania) I congratulate you!
I've only recently followed you for horror recaps because I never had much interest playing them. I didn't know you also did non-horror related story summaries. I'd love more story recaps like this on a number of non horror related franchises. Are you a fan of Fallout lore by any chance, Harry?
Hell yeah
@@GamingHarryYT dude if you did a video on fallout it would be the perfect timing with Amazon's tv series 😆
@@GamingHarryYT it would be a godsend if you would try to recap any of the fallout games' lore. I know most of New Vegas and some of 3 and 4 but I never really had the time to know about Fallout 1 and 2's lore. Maybe do it in chronological order?
I'm not much I to the horror genre in general but I always love watching their recaps.
@@GamingHarryYT good luck if you do fallout....Lore...lore never changes
I cant believe this was almost 2 hours of intense lore I just watched without noticing how much time has passed good job
I’m crying. I’ve only seen the gameplay and never knew what the missions actually meant. It’s like reading a book for knowledge of a subject and not only forgetting why, but rather mindlessly neglecting the true meaning of why I pursued to read it. Same here with this game. A master piece in disguised like Agent 47.
My first ever game series completed.. the Hitman franchise will always have a special place in my heart
There was something extremely special about the art direction and story for hitman 2. It perfected the vibe of the whole series, unlike any other after it.
Absolution has a cool and unique vibe too its very different
That mate, is called "nostalgia". Simply because time passed and you miss the way things are, doesn't mean it was the peak of anything.
@@casperryborg4869 No mate, that's called perspective. As I said, hitman 2 has my favorite vibe. Is it my favorite game in the series? Not even close. Hitman 2's atmosphere and style however are great. If you disagree, that is called a "difference in opinion". And it's perfectly healthy.
Tooootally agreed. The first 2 games had something very special and unique. I'm not even sure if they did that on purpose. That great dark and mysterious tone... Ah man, real classic. I would love to see the franchise reboot with the latest technology and the classic taste. Also removed funny stuff from the latest entries... Another example; people love latest Diana voice because it sounds vocally perfect. No man... the original one was so real. Imagine playing lee hong missions with original creepy vibe with rtx on....
Yepp not to mention the atmosphere and the amazing music. the new hitman games don't have the same feeling..
Man, I’ve only ever seen all the cool ways you could kill people in the newer trilogy. I never thought the story would be as engaging and incredible as it is!
Hitman absolution will always have a special place in my heart , the adrenaline back when i played it was stupid crazy the game writers and directors were really onto something!!
Grew up with silent assassin and blood money. Recently rediscovered them and they are still as fun as i remember. Even more so now that I'm old enough to appreciate the story. Funny enough i still cant complete missions as a silent assassin. I always get impatient and just John Wick my way through missions. Love these games. PS2 era was great.
Hitman Blood Money deserves a remake on the same level as Mafia 1, - graphics improvement - story elements - levels on the same level as the newer Hitman games to make the assassinations have more options A man can dream
It's fine as it is.
I hope the success of this video shows you that we appreciate any lore videos you make, not just horror
I honestly love this series. It's so batsh-t crazy. Everything is over the top and caricatured, yet literally everyone in-world is so deadpan about it. It's like a slapstick cartoon brought to life. Somehow it balances the absurd humor of golden era comics with the heart and pathos of The Godfather. It's high art.
Dont worry harry we are here for everything and anything that you'd like share with us , the story that the game provides are always well explained in your videos, they are well put together timeline by timeline. Thanks for your effort, the outlast videos are the best in my opinion.
Once again: big Kudos for your care in pronouncing names And while it’s not horror, it’s a passion project and your enthusiasm is wonderful Your “entire story” videos always show your investment in the games you tackle and I love your style, your thoroughness, and your snarky remarks Keep being awesome
have i ever played hitman? no. do i plan on playing hitman? maybe. am i about to sit through this 2 hour video about hitman? absolutely.
Nothing wrong with branching out mate, especially a franchise you hold dear to you. Glad you made this vid.
I love the "so far" series, perfect to catch up on any lore I missed while doing inane tasks and making me actually want to get em done. keep the quality content pumping 🙏
Unfortunately, I think IOI are done with Hitman for the foreseeable future. I am quite looking forward to seeing what they do with their James Bond game though.
I think agent smith need a new job, he keeps getting caught lmao
I also love how Freelancer offers a perfect bookend to the series, but also leaves it open for future installments. 47 has what he wanted at the end of the first game: Peace, his yellow bird, but he also still has purpose. Combatting the power vacuum left by Providence and the ICA. In my instance, he's taken out thousands of targets and toppled hundreds of syndicates. I can't stop playing, but when that day comes, 47 will live on in peace fishing on his dock, presumably having Diana over for dinner, plinking in his gun range, playing his cello, painting his shed, tending to his garden...bombing around the valley in his gilded helicopter he got at the copart auction in Dubai after the events of the first level of Hitman 3, taking fishing trips on Silvio Caruso's float plane, driving mountain roads in Dino Bosco's Alfa Romeo...that makes me happy. Then one day, the next entry in the series will be announced and we'll be back in the saddle for a new threat. But if that day never comes, I feel happy for the life 47 will lead for eternity in my absence.
Damn, this really is an amazing history. I could see this being a series of movies. With the real lore in a hitman movie. Amazing 10/10
Please, no more Hitman movies.
@@JohnDoe-rj8nd they need to do it following these games to a tee tbh, the movies don’t really do that at all. They was just having fun with franchise’s name lol
Harry Gaming explaining the whole Hitman series. This is going to be biblical 😎
It was only a few weeks ago that I felt compelled to try and find a video like this about the Hitman series, but I couldn't find one at all! And lo and behold, today this pops up into my recommendations, and I'm so glad it did. An excellent video that delivered exactly what I was hoping for.
The Silent Assassin is my favorite story of them all. the colorful graphics complimented with variety of locations across the world make it feel like you are in a James Bond movie. plus the story arch, it's quite similar to MGR, in the way where both 47 and Raiden look for redeption and humanity in themselves, but throughout their journey they instead find to accept and embrace their true nature
Human cloning was so 90s. I still love it.
I would love for you to consider Lore and Order episodes for the following: - Song of Horror - The Bioshock Games - The Medium Your game explanations just hit different ❤️
The hitman games were one of my best gaming times growing up, and I was looking for a storyline video, as the story is really interesting and detailed, but nobody made such a video. I'm so glad that I found this video now!
This is incredibly well done. As someone that is a huge fan of the series (played them since I was a kid, always needing to silent assassin every mission) this lore explanation should be considered the go to. I wasn't aware of the comics or some of the very niche games so good to see what from the lore those had. Thanks for putting this out!
I’m about to scream. One of my favorite channels covering one of my favorite series 😭
There is so many good stories out there. Just...go crazy Harry. You doing really good job.
I love that you can see the efforts to keep up with current action and mystery genre pop culture throughout the games. The first one can almost be called action packed relative to the more stealthy considerations of the other games while the world of assassination has notes of the Craig Bond films, Mission Impossible and even a level that bears a resemblance to Knives Out.
It is a masterpiece. For me it was like a movie you always wanted to watch. People should know that games are indeed about the story not always the action. The whole Hitman franchise is also a masterpiece and in this video you described it inside and out. Very well done mate ❤
I was missing a bit of Trivia, that Janus was mentioned in "The Final Test". The recreation of Soders own contract in 1979, where it was mentioned that your target "Jasper Knight" and his handler "Cilas Netzke" and the previously defected Soviet ambassador were all working for Janus. or that you could have found Agent Smith in Hokkaido, in a freezer unit.
That Jesper Knigjt Is actually Jesper Kyed The Orginal Soundtrack Composer Of Hitman Games And It Was Good : )
R.I.P Agent Smith
This is genuinely the best video ever covering 47's lore. Thank you so much for this, I now have a proper lore video to link people who care.
replying to your intro with this not being a horror game: i would absolutely watch any kind of lore video you do, regardless of genre! your voice and the way you explain the stories are amazing. i love listening while i do chores or just relax. please keep up the amazing work youre doing!
This had to be SO much work! I'm so glad this exists! I'd probably never play all of them but feel lucky that I can still know what's going on. One thing is bugging me - what ever happened to Vicktoria? Could she make an appearance in the future?
No way. I just binged a play thru of all hitmans and this came out in perfect time. Legend!
Thank you for making another one of these. Its always a treat to hear about lore of any kind for hours. Keep up the spectacular work!
wow dude.....u did a great job making this video with a lot explanations on more importantly how the missions/storylines from different game sequels were correlated and of course the ingame ones...this perfectly fills up my gap of storyline knowledge i had in this gaming franchise so far...Ive been a big fan of this game franchise...played all sequels....so great job again bro!
As a 20 year fan of hitman, i had jever heard of the book Damnation. I appreciate you piecing together these details.
it's good to see you expand to other games, never narrow yourself to specific genres. Looking forward to seeing what other games you do a deep dive into
i found your channel not a week ago. I literally have spent the last 5 days straight watching and REwatching all your "Lore and Order" videos because of how you frame them so freaking perfectly. I absolutely wish more people did things like this on youtube as well as you. I know recommendations to games can be cringy but with all the content you've done on similar kinds of games i'd love to you do a timeline on Chronos Before the Ashes and Remnant From the Ashes as they are linked to one another.
The best Lore video i ever watched in my life. Calm voice, clear speaking and of course very understandable explanation’s. Please continue and don’t stop buddy. Im looking forward to watch more of your videos. You deserve more credit and more subscribers i hope you get there
I'm very happy that this video exists, I always loved this game series. The atmospheres, stories, action and the beautiful wonderful music by Jesper Kyd, and in the newer games. Hitman Silent Assassin and Blood money probably have to be my favorites for the soundtrack. It's cool seeing how the games evolved and changed over time, Great video Gaming harry!
I love hitman, this video made me appreciate it even more as I never really did pay attention to or could understand the story of these games as a kid. It made me appreciate them even more. Big thank you, your video is a masterpiece!
OH MY GOD thank you so much from the Hitman fandom... there were basically no good videos that encapsulated the game's lore before this, I am so appreciative of your efforts, thank you thank you !!!!!!
This was great, I've been playing hitman for a while but never really paid much attention to the story as a whole throughout all the games. Makes me wanna jump back into Hitman. I alway enjoy your voice in your videos its soothing to me. I always look forward to your vids thanks!
This was absolutely amazing. This is a whole movie probably more worth of information! Great job! I definitely gave a thumbs up and subscribed. Thanks for this!
Thank you so much for this recap, I know some information about 47's history but not in chronological order, great video man!!
I follow this channel for lore (my favourite part of video games, as someone who's not very good at actually playing them) and so I think it would be great if you did more non-horror lore videos! Your narration is very calming and the videos are edited nicely so that I'm always engaged with the story :)
By far this is my favorite. Thank you so much for bringing this episode. Lots of love, keep up the good work ❤
This is one of the best I’ve documentaries ever seen. I’ve always loved the series but never really understood how the all of the pieces fall in time. Thankyou for this knowledge within 47
Personally I’ll watch any type of game you cover, I don’t remember you ever promising to only cover horror, the title is Lore and Order not Gore and Order 😂😂😂 Also, 2 hours of Lore and Order? This came at the perfect time! I have a pile of mindless spreadsheet work to get through and this is just what I need. Cheers Harry!
GORE and Order? What a great idea for a series haha. Maybe not on here though! 😂
Thank you, I needed a good video to watch and yours never disappoint. Hitman was unexpected but I’m really excited for this one.
My first game was Absolution, and I've loved the World Of Assassination trilogy. Never knew how it all connected to each other, but this was amazing and so informative. Well done!
I love this series. Sadly never played it myself, but the lore always intrigued me. Another amazing video! ❤
21:46 “i so glad to see you again!! you are my number one 😍😍🥰🥰” “Still living a lousy life I see” i have not laughed that hard in a minute
Great stuff as always Harry, probably one of the best deep dives for an entire series that I’ve seen. Looking forward to your next lore videos, and even more so, you’re next let’s play videos on Gaming Harry 2.0 (Callisto Protocol was amazing)
Simply one of the greatest videos i have ever watched on KZhead. Thank you.
Thank you for this. The Hitman series was one of my favorites when I was younger. I've had less time to keep up with the series nowadays so this was a real treat.
Thank you for making this video. I love the Hitman series, I stopped following the story and just played it for the gameplay. You’re awesome for this!!
There was a clear gap in the lore video content out there in terms of this IP - thanks for bring your original thoughts to this to effort to fill such a gap. Love your content. Epic work.
The way you explained the lore in intricate details. I think you delivered how the story unfolds to every lore enthusiast.
I want to thank you for making this video I know it took a long time and effort. I loved how you put it all together. I never really understood the story either because I played the games all out of order I didn’t know the games actually went in order like that. I thought the new series was actually prequel or something to the older games but you set me straight thanks again.
Absolutely love these games, even after hitman 3, blood money or contracts might still be my favourites considering the tone of those games.
This is the best timeline I’ve seen for this game! I’ve seen a few but always get confused haha but honestly hope you keep these up!! Loved it and don’t mind it’s not horror! 😊😊
I have to confess, i played a few of the hitman games but never thought there was any deep story. This is amazing work, well edited as well!
Just ran across your channel by accident… very impressed, and I know what kind of work goes into long form videos. Subbed
glad to see that you're branching out. Having videos this long is a double edged sword. Some people will have to be pretty invested to watch all the way through.
Yeah, I watched this without skipping though
@@darkshadow2314 good job
I love how you broke this down. Very detailed. Cheers, Sir
Usually don't leave comments but enjoy your videos! I played these games when I was younger but didn't know much about the full story and this was really well done.
The chronology of this game is crazy! Great job laying it out so well. 👍🏼
Thanks for giving us great content. Keep up the good work.
If he was born in 1964, then by the time of Hitman 3, he's already 58 years old. Damn.
A perfect age to retire
In Hokkaido mission, the medical report about 47 say's he has perfect health condition and its very hard to acknowledge his actual age.
I always thought he had reduced aging because of the experiments he'd probably be 90 before he starts to look old
This is amazing as always, thanks Harry! You truly transcend genres! :D and are easily one of the best Lore channels I've seen!
I never realised how in depth the story is for hitman. I have always tended to play the levels and not look into the lore so this has opened a new perspective for me when playing the game
imagine if he does the entire yakuza series lol. good stuff as always man
