I actually enjoyed that game, was the first and only mafia game I played. I really like the cars and music of that era, the racial tensions also added a lot to the story and gameplay.
My vote for worst energy vampire game would be AC Valhalla, just barely fun enough to keep me playing for over 150 hours just to see how the story concludes. Wow what a waste of time that was, story made almost no sense on the ISU side and the conflict building with your brother ends with him just giving his clan to you.
Yeah Valhalla was the last AC I'm probably ever gonna play because of that. I mean, I guess I kind of enjoyed some of it? I liked the proto-halloween story with the Welsh girl the blacksmith falls in love with, and no one understands as fucking word she says.
There were a few things I liked, but the alliance missions got really stale. I feel like if the writing was even 10% of what the witcher had, I would have cared about these dozens of side characters, that you only see again at the end of the game. Just blew me away how lazily the cut scenes and scripted portions were made, really gave me the quantity over quality vibe early on in the game.
