Mafia: The Old Country – Part 2-1
Our recklessness put the landlord’s rich son in danger, and now it’s up to us to make it right. And, like all Mafia media, that is done by application of incredible violence.

I find it interesting how Andre and I can both have different takeaways from the same scene, largely because we have different experiences with the media we’ve engaged with. I went it to the meeting with Don Torrisi expecting the fake out, whereas Andre was much less sure.
Likewise, he took away from the execution that Enzo was being pressed to prove that he understands the life he’s in, whereas I focused far more on the fact that this was Enzo’s first cold-blooded murder. Continuing from the escalation of violence in the beginning of the game, Enzo has almost effortlessly transitioned from a young man fighting to get out of a life of servitude to willingly locking himself into a gilded cage.
It’s fascinating to watch.
