"Diana, I hope this doesn't end up on eBay! Black"

Hmmm, I wonder who this Diana may be... Hmmmmmmmmmm........

And after completing the mission, you can see a book on a table inside the plane 47 is in.

It would be so funny if it was the same book that Black signed. "Oh yeah, I brought you a novel our target wrote and even asked to get it inscripted. Garroted him right after." As if it was a souvenir or something LOL. Pretty creepy but hey, that's IOI's sense of humor (it did made me laugh).

I realized I never shared these here! I helped organize the event with some moots and together we came up with the prompts, color palette, flower choices, and design theme :)

pocket-sized Diana

"B-b-b-but it wouldnt make sense for 47 to get beaten up by Sanchez, or being electrocuted by Skurky--" okay???? In the end, he is STILL human. He's incredibly intelligent, meticulous, and fully capable of planning several steps ahead, yes, but none of that makes him immune to other people's smart plays. This man was jabbed by Diana in BM, who, again, in WOA, walked straight into that olive grove to meet Diana without noticing the enemies lying in wait around him, and while yes you may argue that it is only because he lowers his guard around Diana, but 47 CAN make mistakes because of emotional attachments. He's not some kind of untouchable machine yall make him out to be. He's a trained assassin but he is STILL a human. If the idea of vulnerability "ruins" his character then yall completely missed the entire tragedy of his character.

This one side of Hitman fanboys want 47 to be a constantly cold, sociopathic killer machine. They don't care about his character developement, they don't want him to be human. All they do is post corny phonk edits on TikTok and nag. Most of them don't give a single crap about the lore of Hitman and yet speak about it confidently and think that they know the characters better than anyone, despite skipping all the cutscenes and dialouge when playing. (Also - they don't give a single fuck about Diana's role in the story and in 47's life. I once saw a comment stating that Agent Smith (no hate to him, he's cool) is the closest thing 47 has to a friend, which is simply not true. Devs and voice actors themselves said it several times that this person is Diana!)

Yes, Absolution's story line isn't the best one to exist, but it doesn't mean it has no potencial. I like to believe that 47 got caught in Dexter's and Skurky's traps because he was emotionally (and even with his durability and stamina – physically) exhausted: focused on surviving on his own, the ICA being after him, guilt of "killing" Diana, and keeping the promise to look out for Victoria. In this state, it is normal for him to not perform his best and have some slip-ups.

As you said here, and quoting Diana - "no one is untouchable". It aplies to 47 as well. He is the best in the world, but he is still human.

I relate to the fact how alienated 47 feels - like he doesn't belong in this world - so it really hurts to see him being so frequently mischaracterised by his own fans.

And I bet that those guys are the same people who, for example, are crying in the comments under the trailer of God Of War Laufey that they won't play as Kratos but as "some middle aged mom" (did they play the previous games with their eyes closed or what...?).

They repeat toxic behaviours and look out for them in characters. They idolise this toxicity and gain nothing from it.
