GR: In your opinion, what is Mafia II's biggest selling point over something like GTA IV? What will Vito Scaletta do to pull car-crime fans' attention away from Niko Bellic?
DV: In our opinion, the biggest selling point of Mafia II over an experience like GTA IV is that we are focusing on delivering an almost movie-like experience, inspired by all the great gangster movies that have graced the big screen..
GR: The first Mafia was fairly linear as sandbox games go, in that it followed a simple, mission-to-mission progression that didn't offer many incentives to explore Lost Heaven freely. Will the sequel be similarly linear, or are you planning a lot of diversions from the central plot?
However, with that said, within the constraints that telling a compelling story creates, we give the gamer as much freedom as possible. For example, missions can be completed in various ways, and sometimes even the story will be influenced by some of the choices the gamer makes during the course of the game.
GR: Does Mafia II feature multiple endings?
DV:
Yes, Mafia II can conclude in four different endings.
GR: One of the things that Mafia was notable for was "unlocking" cars one at a time, as the main character was taught to break into and hotwire them. Will we see more of that this time around?
[The player] can now steal any car he/she sees, and he can do it in a few ways. He can steal a car through physical violence, lockpicking, or carjacking. Each option, though, has a consequence, and it will be up to the player to decide carefully on which technique to use, given the present set of circumstances.
We can also tell you, carjacking in Mafia II isn’t going to be as simple as kicking somebody out of their car and driving away, like in most other games
GR: Does Mafia II feature multiple endings?
DV:
Yes, Mafia II can conclude in four different endings.
