We have made our choice, and now it’s time for the consequences.

As I said before, Vito and Joe have done this to themselves, as a result of their own actions. And now every mobster in the city is out for their blood.
But a point that Andre makes during this record, that I feel needs to be reiterated, is how numb we get to the combat in Mafia 2, when compared to The Old Country. Because engagements in The Old Country are small, contained to usually no more than four other enemies in the arena with us at the same time, each individual firefight is more impactful, quick, and brutal. By contrast, we mow down so many enemies here that it’s difficult to feel the impact of even a single individual. They blend together after a while, especially since we can reliably use the same guns over and over.
“Less is more” is a trite, often repeated axiom, but it is true all the same.
