Giving Enzo the mines was such a disgusting move...
Right ????
I would bet $100 that it was Tinos bitchahh idea and told Don Torrisi "Let the carusu oversee the mines. He came from them. He knows how things operate"
literally
I know right? "Remember that slave plantation you grew up in? Now it's your workplace, good luck." Jesus
No deadass
ayeee enzo driving to the train station with Isabella!! how cute! why’s there 50 minutes left… 🥰
nah bru u did not overreact I deaduzz had to skip to the end after Enzo died bc what’s the point after that 💔 knowing his last thoughts n stuff tho would have been fireee
I guess the point is to get his family out cause that’s what he would have wanted. His last thoughts probably were just about her and the baby.
@liyahh2cool Ik it sucks that Enzo eventually dies after all he's been through in the end, but you know what I feel like that's what kinda makes the story more realistic tbh. Rip Enzo
😭😭😭
😮💨
The fact that the beginning to the end of Enzo’s life started in the mines and ended in the mines kills me.
too much pain, too much pain
Oh this killed me💔
it killed him too💔
Ts kilt me
it's such a "salt in the wound" move by the writers
Giving the ticket to isabella after killing enzo is wicked work 😂
Fr at that point just let them both go😂
he pmo so bad i wish he got shot instead of luca 😭
to stand in front of the house burning...🤣💀
@piabrooker1725 nbs now you gotta start from scratch good luck.
no cause if that was the case why kill him omg
Bro Isabela doesn’t even know it was Cesare 💔
i haven’t known peace since i’ve seen this betrayal it’s all i can think about 😭😭😭😭
No she definitely knew it was him, she could smell failure on him
@DrGlizz the stench of failure was probably burning her nose hairs
No like genuinely all I can think about is how enzo wouldn’t have been in cesare’s way AT ALL, he was ready to LEAVE. cesare could’ve literally let him and Isabella go and cesare could have the whole mafioso to himself but nahhhh
@frenchcoucouit’s genuinely upsetting especially after enzo JUST spared him and called him his friend 😕 i wonder if he would’ve let him go if enzo didn’t kill the don
Enzo is a dumbass for letting his guard down with someone who literally just tried to kill him fifteen minutes ago. He's also a dumbass for strolling into the train station with Isabella hand in hand. Theres like 5 times he couldve not went out like an idiot
word
Letting his guard was dumb as hell, but them acting all lovey dubby at the train station or not wasn’t gonna do anything, bc the family already knew the plan and intercepted them there anyways
He thought Cesare was saying he was sorry for trying to kill him earlier and thought he would be grateful for Enzo sparing his life. Enzo was too good hearted, he didn't think Cesare would hurt him after he just let him live when he didn't have to. Thats what makes it even more tragic. Cesare sucks 😡
Sure but the point was that Enzo was always naive. It’s not an out of no where did it for the plot, it’s a consistent character trait of his.
Gotta make the ending sad and tragic somehow even if it doesn’t make sense, bad writing
I knew a betrayal was brewing but I never thought it would be the camera
That camera was ready to be done 😂😂
Lmao
🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂 Cam said F It I hate how this game ended
The camera gave him the signs for ending of game 😂
Berlin screaming Cesare like Mark screaming for Leland
LELAAAAAAAND
That’s so real! Felt like….Away Out…. All over again
LEEEEELAAAAAAAND
Lol
ayo-
to be honest, we shoulve played the Isabella part before enzo gets killed so when she finally leaves the state and before she sees cesare it cuts to before on enzos part and you get to see cesare kill enzo and then we cut back to isabella getting the news from cesare and leaving.
True. Or it even could’ve cut back and forth between Isabella and Enzo’s segments of them trying to get to each other.
that would've been clean
I wished they did that too! It doesn't make sense that we get to play her part right after he dies. It's anticlimactic and ruins the pace.
ain’t no way they hit u with the mary jane mission after all them visceral knife fights to the death like that
piss poor decision making
The coin toss mechanic in the game is hilarious because all the enemies react like “oh a piece of candy” and be in the most serious situations
It blows my mind how many times you need a grenade or bandage and you always pull a coin instead
It's crazy how everyone goes completely insane because of what Enzo did. They didn't even care that the volcano was erupting and destroying the entire landscape. Instead of evacuating, they chose to stay and die for Torrisi.
shows you how messed up this 'family' is... then again, it wasn't a real family just henchmen used as weapons for a mobster. Yet this is the moment the Don Torrisi mirrors Spadero where all of Spadero's men tried to kill him.
thats what im saying. That was kinda bizarre. Tino is literally insane
I'm saying 😭 I knew Torrisi would be upset but it's like he contracted rabies or something
Its because the ending is poorly written unfortunately.. Its a good game up until the last chapter or so..
@SpectrumAce Loyal to the "family" I guess.
Bruh these car flipping intros every episode got me weak... berlin can't drive for shit 😂😂😂😭😭😭
Word 🤣
He landed this 1 though‼
Enzo had to land one for the finale yall
There go roc
And then got the audacity to call out Rock's name randomly 😂😂😂
For the ending, they could’ve given players the choice to either trust Cesare or refuse to go with him. Ts really got me blowed 😭😭😭😭😭i get what they’re doing tho, basically the ending is the same: almost no one gets out alive from that lifestyle
That’s what I was thinking! I feel like they wanted a sad dramatic ending so damn bad 😭
Typical Mafia game 💔
Fucking this exactly dude. Enzo was in the life for like 7 or 8 years at that point, he saw how they treated people who betrayed the code. He wouldn't be that stupid to just walk up to the guy who wanted to kill him 5 mins ago, especially after killing his uncle right in front of em.
Vito did thought
@Ykchippy_chipsdepends on what you picked I guess in mafia 3
loool wtf this ending feels like a nightmare? so many things in this story dont make no damn sense 😭 as soon as enzo gave isabella the letter and toy i knew he was going to heaven 🕊️
Uk dam well he aint going to heaven😂😂
LMFAOO deadass did feel like a nightmare. They were all so feral just going bat shit crazy tryna kill Enzo
Enzo died to protect family
Isabella a widow
Enzo's unborn child is a fatherless child
Don Torissi a manipulative power hungry man til the end
Tino died a side character
Finally, Cesare remains a lizard. 🦎🦎🦎
Kind of crazy after luca's death everything n the weather seemed gloomy
Literally he was the backbone of that whole family
They were foreshadowing
Man the villa was depressing as hell. Everything was tense. 😭
After everything Enzo has done for the family you would think him marrying the don's daughter wouldn't be crazy even though they did it behind his back for good reasoning, he never seen Enzo as family just a carusu and someone he can use.
Yeah, they also just didn't roll like that back then. He was super protective of the daughter and they weren't connected to them emotionally like we were. He was never gonna let one of his hired killers be with his daughter. Like Luca said, being seen with the Don's daughter alone is stupid.
The don was using his daughters hand in marriage as part of a business move to bring the Torrisi and Fontanella families together so it makes sense. You gotta remember the times that this is set in.
@asherandall7441 I agree 100 percent but I feel like it gets to a point, Enzo did everything for that man no questions asked. The Don said in his own words anything you want you can have it, it’s just sad to see.
They never viewed him as anything more than an attack dog. He had been with them for several years at this point, and even though he did everything they ever asked of him, as soon as they found out what he did, they went right back to viewing him as if he was there for only a day.
@trim.kz1 We all know the don did not mean his daughter. Even in general a relentless murderer is prolly not someone you'd want your daughter to marry even if he murdered for you. Enzo was too naive cos he knew Torrisi wanted Isabella to marry fontanella but still held out hope he would get his permission. Unfortunately for Enzo his upbringing or lack thereof did not allow him to understand the people around him and the situations he was dealing with
Playing as Isabella after killing off Enzo was a terrible storyline choice by Hangar. You just killed off the main character and now we’re doing a David vs Ellie stealth battle with Timo as final boss like we care?? The immersion is gone.
As soon as he said this letter's was everything he wanted to tell her I knew. We aint allowed to be happy
Bruh real life is depressing enough why tf they gotta make me digitally depressed too😭😭
What’s funny is, Berlin AND Krysta both flipped their car in the same exact spot during that chase 💀
Damn that's too funny😂
Bro I flipped MY car at that spot too 😭
I knew Cesare wasn’t gonna be a real one… Saw this coming first release
Im like 20mins into the video but hes seeming hella jealous that enzo is getting more attention than he is
It's so crazy how everyone IMMEDIATELY switched up without even talking to Enzo or Isabella first. Luca would've never.
@DOCTORDEADHEADRighttttt! Rip to the legend!
@DOCTORDEADHEAD Luca would've gotten them out more smart with a real plan had he still been alive.
Ever since the moment where Don Torissi chose to make Enzo his right hand man, I knew Cesare only saw Enzo as some "Caruso" who took his spot.
Fun fact I learned:
the rumbling sound effect you hear at the start of new chapters 2:25 is the actually the sound from the volcano at the end, so basically Enzo is remembering everything within his last moments as you play the game, very bittersweet.
Another fun fact that many probably noticed is that the music that plays when Isabella sees the buildings in New York, is the mafia 2 soundtrack - gave me chills lmao
Bruh I’m gonna throw up. STOP PLEASE 😭
DUDDEEEEEE 😭😭😭😭😭😭
No shot?! Wooow the whole time 😭
I thought the rumbling was from the mines. This is too much.
@anastasiathehiphopfairy considering he died at the mines and they were being destroyed by the volcano it may be a mix!
1:42:25 this ending really messed with me, Mafia is undeniably good, I just wish it didn’t have to be Enzo as he never really got the chance to live his own life and died where he started to begin with
It's the history of the Mafia games
Out of all the mafia protagonists, Enzo deserved his fairytale ending. He came from less than nothing and then joined a family that he ALWAYS did right by. He never betrayed them not once (besides date Isabella but only the arrogant Don and his lil sheep see it as betrayal). He did the job and gave the Don everything HE wanted; to own more land and money through the mines.
Tommy in Mafia 1 got to live old and got killed for being a snitch which is reasonable. Boring ass Vito in Mafia 2 got to leave even though he had nothing going for him and had no drive if we're being honest. ENZO HOWEVER, had drive, compassion, perseverance, honor, loyalty, and love in his heart; and this is the ending he gets??? I absolutely hate it. The amazing story just soiled by this disrespectful ending. And they had the nerve to rub salt in the wound by killing him in the mines??
I want to know what the reason is for this choice. Shock value? The good ol' "eVeN gOoD gUyS fInIsH lAsT" trope? I hate when beautiful stories think they MUST "be edgy" and do their honorable protagonists dirty like this. Just not necessary
🚮
100% this, absolutely ruined the game
Loyalty to the mob doesn’t warrant you a fairytale ending 😂. Vito being forced to live with nothing but regrets was the consequence for his actions.
I feel the same way. A piece of work is not automatically more profound because the protagonist dies at the end. It might be realistic i some cases, but Enzo really did deserve a happier ending. I kind of thought they were going to do a romeo and juliet thing where Isabella dies too, which is probably the only way this ending could’ve been worse. I guess I can at least be thankful for that…
best I can say is womp womp, vito literally living with regret for the rest of his life, Enzo to their eyes is INFACT a betrayyal, Luca straight up warn him that even being seen with her is retarded, and Don dont even see him much but a tool, another thing Luca pretty much wanted u to be out, same for Leo who actually tried to get him out cuz he knows its a bad business, u cant expect everything have a happy ending especially mafia , the only one who really get to live his life is Tommy lol
@nathannix3217 but he got to live
Bruh that ending..... gave enzo false hope the whole game
Rip enzo but TOMMY HIM
@CosmicSoWeird "Mr. Salieri sends his regards"
Tommy vs Enzo straight up who wins
@spark1400honestly? Tommy.
Enzo is terrifying but only in this era, wouldn’t be a battle to the death though, they both have too much heart.
@kingos7643 he had his happy years tho
we really didnt need tino's funky ass the whole game, his only purpose was to be a nasty vulture at the very end and then he gets done out like that, he literally didnt need to exist
I thought he supposed to be Don Torrisi evil consigliere
@jlstudios8823yeah but like, him being that didn't do anything for the story
they never talked often, tino was never the never the one to convince torrisi to kill enzo, he never even advised him on any moves throughout the story that i can remember
tino is worthless
Berleezy: “switch pov let me play as her”
Also berleezy a minute later: “Nah this wasn’t a good decision to have u play as Isabella”
😭😭😭
That’s what I’m sayin, I don’t even know what he was so upset about. What I didn’t like was everything right before having to play as Isabella
@kenyattafrazier Its poorly written thats what he and many many others are upset about
@imokay3193Isabella’s escape is poorly written?? That’s specifically what I’m talking about, not the other stuff. Everything before it was badly written, yes, we are in agreement. Now why was playing as Isabella such an issue AFTER all that? That’s my question. I played the same stuff and had a lot more gripes about the game than he did during his play through but even I didn’t have an issue with the little Isabella mission
@kenyattafrazierBecause there was no reason for any gameplay POST Enzo dying, the Isabella escape should've happened before that then, it was not rewarding we KNOW what will happen, there was no reason they couldn't have made that last sequence a cutscene, Tino should NOT have been the final boss, the order of events and ending is all poorly written, you enjoying it doesn't mean it's not badly written.
@imokay3193I just don’t agree with that. I don’t see why you’re saying it should’ve happened beforehand, the ending involved Chesare letting her go and handing her the tickets to do so, it literally couldn’t have happened the other way around and it doesn’t hurt anything happening that way. The ending was already trash well before that. I don’t disagree that they COULD have made it a cutscene, but again, not a huge gripe. He was going in on it, it was not that deep, the shit before that was atrocious. Nobody saying anything isn’t badly written, it was just such a small thing after they had already ruined the ending that I dont even see how you could be upset about it.
When Enzo and the don were fighting. That's when they should've cut to Isabella. Then not show us who got out the car.
1. Issabella knew Cesare killed Enzo. He handed her the tickets that only Enzo had that were full of blood. She knows.
2. Their baby is likely a girl named Rosa. When Isabella has to escape the room, there is a letter next to the suitcase that Berlin didn't choose. It states that Enzo wants the babies name to be Rosa (the name of Isabella's late mother).
Great series Berlin, always loved the mafia series and your gameplay ❤.
Enzo is so pure hearted. He just wants to be with his love. 😢
Edit: Def would have loved to have seen them elope. I love Enzo’s character so much 😭. Cesare ain’t shit, never was shit and never will be shit 😭
Cesare K till my bones decay.
@Kaidon0that kinda rhymes
@Kaidon0ok, I’m old. What does that mean? 😂
@jackiechan4AAR Pretty much just saying f*ck Cesare for life.
@jackiechan4AARpretty much wishing his death forever 😂
Berlin play mafia 3, We need to see a black man play as another black man back in the day.
Nah fr i been posting this on previous vids
Right! I really need him to try 3. The gameplay does loop a little but it really didn't bother me in my first playthrough. 1, its mafia, all of the gameplay is similar. 2, a lot of the main story missions are interesting deviations, its mainly the side missions and fetch quests that repeat. 3, the story carries HARD. Its phenomenal
Berlin would definitely love Lincoln
@justsomename-ct1mball the mafia games are similar tbh when it comes to the driving and action but mafia 3 really changed a lot it basically paved a ways for old country especially with the eagle vision mechanic and mafia 3 was more open world than any other mafia game
I’m praying he sees these comments and plays mafia 3
The developers killing off Enzo left a sour taste in my mouth. The fact that they had Enzo somehow think Cesare was actually going to help after literally trying to kill him. Tommy’s ending was understandable but this one here left a sour taste in my mouth. Especially given the fact that Enzo was fighting for his life and freedom but somehow immediately drops his guard. And why is the side character the final guy? You literally just beat the final boss before getting snaked by a side character and then finishing the game by killing another side character. But aye, not everything can have a happy ending but at least give us multiple endings to have a good ending if this was going to be the option. Enzo’s life literally began and ended in the very place he dreamed of escaping. Absolutely pathetic on the developers’ part. I don’t feel sad but rather robbed and cheated as a player and a fan of the series. It’s like they went for shock value instead of following through on a good story like they do in pro wrestling. But aye, man. Great gameplay.
i feel the exact same bruh
i feel so incomplete, i feel it in my chest 😭
Most mafia stories are ended in death and betrayal but I agree we should have seen Enzo and Isabella escape to America to start their own lives ending the cycle of pain
it left him a sour taste in his mouth
@tescosniffer3671Didn’t make sense Enzo and Isabella be that reckless going to the train station with no back up plan or wouldn’t scope out the station to see if Cesare or any henchman were already there
this ending being the way it was truly took me out of it too... this kind of life only leads to one end, but enzo should've gotten *something* new or went out a different way idk (thank u berlin for playing, i would've deleted all game data after that end 😭)
15:16 and Enzo grew up without a dad, now watching two boys grow up without one because of the business he is in
My first red flag for Cesare was his name before anything else. He shares his name with Cesare Borgia, an infamous figure in late 1400s Italy, son of the Pope who conducted himself a lot like a mafia boss. Cesare Borgia was a notorious hothead who was similarly chained to the service of his father’s interests and was even made a cardinal in the Vatican despite wanting to be a soldier. He eventually became a soldier but most of his squabbles pertained to maintaining his father’s political interests. MOST importantly, there were rumours that he killed his brother Juan who was his father’s favourite son. When the Pope died, Cesare’s power and influence died with him because his nepobaby status didn’t matter with the Pope gone.
This game’s Cesare and Cesare Borgia share A LOT of parallels. Mafia Cesare is also a philandering and power hungry man, chained to service an older father figure through crime and nepotism. He too kills a brother like figure, Enzo, and then returns to the villa as it’s burning - the Don’s legacy burning with it. I know Berlin didn’t care much for the ending🤣 but I will say the writers definitely set up quite a few hints as to how it would end along the way🙏🏾
im so glad you brought this up
Literally same but I only know about Cesare Borgia from Assassin's Creed lol. I grew up on AC2 and just played brotherhood for the first time recently (2 > Revelations > Brotherhood).
@AnonymousBersonbro this is insane, I literally just finished Ac2 and I’m playing brotherhood and revelations next for the first time 😭
than u i never knew that, this game had pheneomal writing
The fact that I’m playing Assassin’s creed brotherhood right now and I haven’t made the connection until now lol
Cesare killing Enzo was the ultimate betrayal, but it makes sense in the world they live in. Loyalty to the mafia kills everything good. Enzo tried to break free for love, but love isn’t enough to dismantle the system. Betrayal always leads to betrayal, and that’s why Cesare did what he did. He didn’t harm Isabella because that was still family, but he never really saw Enzo as family, even though Enzo spared him earlier
It was irritating that Cesare still went through with it, but in the mafia family means more than mercy. Enzo broke rules, he tried to fight against the system, and in the end he got crushed by it. Just like in Mafia 1 and Mafia 2, the system can’t be broken, no matter how much the protagonist tries, it always come back to get them (Tommy from Mafia 1 Great example)
Mafia 3 playthrough gon be nice asf. Berlin’s commentary has gotten so much more insightful and mature, really a pioneer
on me
@newleader5982on me it's true
this game ended so terribly i cant believe it was so hype just to end like this
Personally, I would have preferred it if Isabella had died too. I would rather see them both receive the Romeo and Juliet treatment than have Isabella live their dream life alone
5:30 It's interesting to note that Torrisi always says "what you've become" rather than "who you've become" which lends credence to the idea that he doesn't see Enzo as a person or loyal subordinate but rather a tool. What he has become, in Torrisi's eyes, is a weapon. I haven't watched the rest of the video yet, so we'll see how it turns out.
Facts. I the position they found him in, they took that desperation of freedom and ran with it.
Everyone dies
I’m still confused on why Cesare still decided to kill Enzo, Don Torrisi was already dead and Cesere had all opportunity to take over and let Enzo leave. He knows Enzo was on the way out. I just feel like it didn’t have to go that way. Like maybe he was still trying to prove something but all I know is F Cesare. Even Berlin computer was over this ending.
Bruh it's like Cesare doesn't want Enzo to be happy with Isabella and his child..maybe Cesare wants to prove to his dead uncle that he is worth something even after the Don is dead
I feel like its more of a principal thing. For Cesare when he took that oath he meant it and he lived by it. You can't kill the don and just walk off into the sunset. A man who lives by a code doesn't just break that code cos noones around. He also had no idea that everything had burned down. All in all Cesare wanted respect and he wanted to take over. He couldn't get that if Enzo is alive and well after what happened.
He was jelaous of Enzo, and everyone thought he was an idiot you can see it throughout the game. So he probably thought "boss is dead, Enzo is the top guy that would be in my way, I will be the new Don and own that big estate" - In the meantime everyone was dying and the estate has burned down, so he lost it all really.
@asherandall7441 I think it was jealousy more than principle. for Enzo, he had the opportunity to be “everything” in Cesare’a eyes, but he chose not to take that and instead sought something greater from a humanistic standpoint. But for someone like cesare who has proven himself to be a shallow, philandering man through the entire series, he can’t understand that sacrifice and choice that Enzo made. He didn’t respect Enzo’s choice, and overall I think he was still jealous that Enzo even had the opportunity to make a choice at all, and so he decided to make that known by taking away Enzo’s choice to do anything else moving forward.
Well if he wanted power then he would need to kill Enzo regardless to regain that power so ppl would take him seriously
I feel like the 2 end fight scenes should have been flipped… after the scene inside of the mines, Enzo should have crawled out and been recovering and then it cuts to Isabella and then she has her scene and she doesn’t see who she sees at the end but instead finds the thing she needs for the final scene in the house somewhere. Then it cuts back to Enzo and his boss battle and ENDING and then the final shot is the land burning. Then it cuts to the boat scene. That would have made more sense and kept the epic story feeling epic! 😌
(I tried to avoid spoilers but just read between the lines)
that would have been much better
YESS EXACTLY THISSS!!! It wouldve made more sense and it wouldve been more impactful for the players. I say this bc as soon as Enzo died, i turned it off. Turned it off and went to bed. I was NOT doing allat bs after seeing our boy Enzo get gutted by that rectangular face ahh RAT Cesare. Like guys, who was cooking up that last chapter?? NEVER let them be part of a dev team again EVERR 😭
my exact thoughts! putting isabella’s scene second to last was crazy..
@army.aaliyah3368 you mean putting it last?
That final fight reminded me of Abby and Ellie’s fight too. Two broken people, one attempting to let go of the past and the other trying to make them pay for it. Great writing on both sides, great series.
1:00:21 i know yall saw him pay homage to the tommy angelo backscratch.. real one
Bro did a Shimmy Fadeaway in a shootout lmao
volcano was really heating the camera up like some 4D experience
Fuck😂
I feel like nobody actually addresses the volcano lol
seems like some people here forget that the entire game enzo is very naive, it makes 100% sense that he'd let his guard down against chesare, he's naive, he just got through a knife fight, spared his life, AND told him that they are friends, regardless of what just happened he didn't think chesare after sparing his life would stab him in the back
I would say that he just expects good in people. Like how for so long he thought he could ask the Don for permission to marry his daughter. That was never going to happen, but Enzo believed he would be fair and good.
To be fair, he is 19-20 years old
@ss.conception by this time he would be a little bit older since its 1908? or 1907 I think
in the end enzo’s big heart was the nail on his coffin if he hadnt spared cesare hed be on that boat. plus it makes no sense because why have cesare kill him but let isabella go for that you coulda just let them both go no one woulda found out… BOOOO ending enzo love u king
Well I think Cesare was a fool and regretted it in the end as he returned to the vineyard he saw everything going up in flames he thought that he would be next in line to be the don now that don torrisi is gone but seeing the vineyard gone he now knew he did that for nothing.
@jameskloslow2068 I agree with you ngl 🚬 *cries*. RIP Enzo frfr...
I think Cesare was still seething but I get why he wouldn’t kill Isabella cause it’s not just she’s Enzo’s girl, NONE of them were gonna kill Isa anyway, that’s still his cousin.
@jameskloslow2068 but he literally saw that Enzo killed the Don so I don’t think it should’ve taken him getting all the way back to the Vineyard to realize that he killed Enzo in vain, because in reality he should’ve never killed Enzo. I’m really just struggling to understand what went through his mind and what he thought he was going to gain by doing that unless it was simply to say that he did.
@qwertydora5590I just think cesere was stuck in the old mafia ways. When trust is broken in the mafia then the mafia code must be upheld regardless of personal feelings that means said member needs to be executed and that's how the mafia has always been. He stayed loyal to the family until the end. He chose to upheld the mafia code instead of doing the right thing unfortunately 😢
Im finna yap so skip if you dont wanna read it.
Berleezy not being able to connect with Isabella's section of the game lowkey breaks my heart. because the first thought for me after Enzo died was "what's going to happen to Isabella and the baby?" if the game just ends after Enzo dies, then it would have been safe to assume that isabella would have been forced to have an abortion and then probably sold off into whatever power grab marriage Tino could organise (because he sure as shit werent going to let Ceasare take over the Torissi empire) and that would have been it. Isabella would have just been another victim of a patriarchal system, seen and treated as an object to be handled.
Seeing her fight instead of fold gave me relief. To be honest that's one of few things I found unrealistic about the game (aside from henchman fighting on an active volcano eruption instead of running. Could never be me, Don Torissi woulda had to fight me too cause im getting theeee fuck off that mountain lol) a noble daughter, consistently reminded she has no choice in her future, is torn from the love her lifes arms by the men she had grown up with, now awaiting the town doctor to arrive in order to abort the baby shes carrying of her love. Yeah more often than not, that would have played out exactly as men like Tino would have wanted.
But... Isabella choosing to escape and fight is just a testament to the character they had been building in the background. A young woman whose well aware of the assigned place she has in this world, still choosing to dare against it.
I dunno bruh, im just yapping. Im just glad Isabella and the baby are safe.
I think it was more so the lack of motivation to play her escape after confirming Enzo was dead. I would have preferred if they left us on a bit of cliff hanger before switching to her escape. It would have been more compelling because players would still have some hope Enzo was alive. After escaping, we’d run into Cesare standing over Enzo and have our souls crushed right along with her.
I NEED to that YAKUZAAAAAA PLS BRO!!!! 💔
I’m not gonna lie the way Enzo dresses and style definately blends in with mostly Luca
I love the parallel of Enzo writing to Isabella at the end to show how far he’s come and to show him embracing and longing for a sense of individuality.Really makes you proud of him in a sense.
i think the main issue with the ending is how unsatisfying enzo's death was. the ending could have been great, but it felt like we were missing something
The whole thing for him to go through escaping the mines once again to kill the Don but not have a choice whether to spare or kill Cesare made no damn sense. I wish they actually gave multiple endings
1:31:50 to be staring at us as if we're the problem is crazy family lmfaooooo i loved this game, but it lost me at the end too. idk why tino was the "final boss" but by all means. and yes, every man in this game is gross. except my bro enzo lmaooo ggs bro
The don: this family owe you a great debt.
Enzo: let me cash it in on your daughter
The don: you betrayed me.
SPOILERS ‼️‼️
My thing with the ending is that after Enzo dies there's literally no reason for us to play as Isabella after. It's not rewarding, we KNOW what's gonna happen, there was no reason for that whole sequence to not just be a cutscene. I don't know why they didn't put the Isabella stealth horror part BEFORE the part where Cesare stabs Enzo (and we get the initial reveal). There's just no reason to have any gameplay post Enzo dying.
Agreeed. I don’t mind the Isabella stealth horror part but it should’ve came before everythinggg
And the fact that Cesare comes back to tell her what happened like we don’t already know and he gives her the boat ticket just twists the knife
bro this game is literally just ragebait at its finest mann 🫡😭😭
like we have like two scenes where enzo gets knocked out, i dont understand why Isabella's pov wasnt placed there
Please put a warning 😅😅 this was the first thing I saw because of RUclips
Never clicked so fast🫡
For real
Fr
mannnnn
Man what 😁😁
wrd
What's crazy is that the volcano actually erupted in real life a few days ago. It's called mount etna.
why did isabella have to confess that though...could have kept that between you and God till you got overseas and then confess in a church over there?? this ending pmo so bad.
that’s gotta be a bad writing decision and not a characteristic of Isabella. no WAY she would say anything out loud when she doesn’t trust her father or anyone associated with him. sure we joked abt her being freaky and somewhat reckless but she’s not an idiot. i just don’t believe she would say anything, even in a church. it was all so the Torrisi family had a reason to find the truth
Bro this ending pissed me off bro. Enzo did not deserve it but whatever GGs bro
Especially after escaping the mines to go through two intense knife battles to the death while Mt Vesuvius erupts just ridiculous writing
A lot of people mentioning how Enzo was dumb for being naive with Cesare, and how he was holding hands with Isabella in the train station and acting all lovey dovey with her, but it all fits with Enzos character. He was ALWAYS naive when it came to people, he grew up just following rules, and when it comes to people, he’s very trusting and lacking of social skills/ cues, if we truly see his personality outside of how loyal and strong he is, he’s very weak when it comes to social skills, if it wasn’t for Isabella, he would have never realised he’s being used as a puppet by her father, and for the better or worse, he would have even stayed in that life and wholly believed it’s what’s best for him, Isabella opened up his eyes to what’s beyond survival, that’s literally the only reason why he rebelled. Enzo dying by Cesares hands is the sad conclusion
+ A lil extra, but a really cool comparison to Isabella and Enzos inner circle is how the people around them treated them when they needed help escaping.
Isabella fully realises who’s to trust and what the people around her ( esp the men ) because she knows not everyone’s family, not everyone is deserving of trust, and was heavily restricted and imprisoned by her closest family, making her way more careful with who she truly should ask help, and when she did, none of them betrayed her, especially since the women sympathise with her too and know how she feels, she still doesn’t go to just anyone, but specific people she knows care for her for who she is, not just her status.
Enzo however, didn’t grow up worrying about his inner circle, or how to socially interact with people, even in the beginning, his character was always simply a ‘follower’, his friend in the mines was the one who suggested going to America, and because he was surrounded with people who suffered, he couldn’t fathom other people would still want to put others down who are suffering with them, hence why when Cesare came up to him, he truly believed they were at the same standing, both suffering, both wanting help, both willing to accept each other and be a family, “just the two of us”, but even in a circumstance like that, people still put each other down. His trusting of everyone’s word, everyone he truly cares for, no matter who they are, and his inner circle instead used him for that, because he grew only worrying about survival, he couldn’t think of doing anything else but that, until Isabella first met him, and they both saw in each other what the other couldn’t, Freedom to be who they want to be, one they both could achieve, with how Enzo could see Isabella as more than just her status ( treating her with kindness out of his own heart, not out of loyalty for her father) and Isabella allowing him a chance to live and not simply survive ( A really significant scene I think in this case was when they bonded over cameras, Enzo didnt have to spend his time learning it and using it, but Isabella gave him a chance to enjoy the simpler things and what she enjoys, taking pictures and sharing it together, finding joy in hobbies and interests, more than just killing and serving others) which is why their love for each other is so significant, so much that Enzo was able to see past the need to simply survive, but to also live.
Still, the don telling him he’ll still be the way he is, was proven right after he died.
Enzo, now with the realisation that there’s more to life than simply survival, wanted to extend that opportunity to Cesare too, like the little kid who wanted to help people out of their suffering, simply thinking that everyone wants to leave their suffering together like he does, people still push others further down, and Cesare did exactly that. Enzo, who was desperately naive, wanting to see the last of his family living, stabbed by someone who was exactly in the same position as him.
The don was right, he’s still that naive kid from the mines, still desperate for freedom till the end.
this is so interesting and well written omg
Amazing analysis bro
thank you
Holy book report bro it’s just a video game 💔💔
@Ch0_p "Holy book report bro it’s just a video game" -🤖 🤖
*SPOILERS*
I agree, the devs definitely should’ve inserted that last stealth sequence after Enzo fell from the bridge. That REALLY threw off the emotion of the climax.
It would’ve left the player/audience wanting to get through it, maybe even excited to see Isabella fight so hard to get to Enzo. Thus, leaving the player with hope before cutting back to more action and a worth-while fight sequence with Torissi. Could’ve been a rollercoaster of emotions, but instead you feel like you’re wasting your time just trying to get to the credits.
!!!
The ending was sooooooo buns. Why are we even playing as Isabella in the middle of a volcano😂😂😂😂??? Tino is sick to even be trying to do all that
Berleezy… give me yakuza… it’s been five years, six this December. I need that yakuza.
The scream at 1:13:00 taking me out 😂😂😂 berlin saying he sound like rick james got me WEAK
lmaoo fr i was crying of laughter but soon after i was crying w tears rip 🤕
"Live for yourself, cesare. Not for him. Not for this" I FELT THATTTT. ENZO WITH THE COLD LINES MAN🔥🔥
all that and he stabs him anyway. fuck cesare and fuck this ending bruh 😢
Berleezy: let me know what yall wanna see next
All of us: sir…mafia three it’s been years…😃
I think the volcanic eruption at the end was symbolic. Even when the world is ending and all they worked for is burning, all they cared about was appeasing the Don. Not their families, not their faith, not even themselves. Willing to sacrifice the greatest gift of life for a man who didn’t care about theirs. And even in the end, nobody knows the Don is dead, yet they’re still following the orders of a man who gave them nothing but the illusion of choice.
imma let you know, they blew it on that ending. everything from the "go here and blast these last spadaro captains" was rushed and jank asf. it really feels like since they're trying to "go back to their roots" with this mafia so hangar 13 had to make the ending torture corn. just so they can get the validation from all the og mafia fans and they'll say "woww that was so dark and realistic!!! crime doesn't pay after all guys 🤓" just some straight cornballs are the ones who justify this game's ending. it is a game, games aren't supposed to follow realism to a t. but apparently for the story it had to be, despite enzo taking 100+ shots over the campaign cesare can just stab him and boom he's dead. not to mention all the knife fight "whoop the bad guy's ass in gameplay only for the cutscene to show the character is REALLLYYY struggling guys!!! 🤓" corny, these devs are the entire field.
in my opinion
Bro but think about it. Everyone always thought Cesare was a dunce who wasn’t fit to lead. Now imagine seeing some Caruso, somebody who literally came from the dirt, do better than you. He was lowkey bitter about all the stuff Enzo was getting because he wanted that, he wanted the respect and the money given to him. The Don was never gonna take him seriously, I feel like that’s why Cesare didn’t care when he died. He finally had everything he wanted, even though it’s all ashes, he’s in control of everything. It just makes me mad when he killed Enzo cause I literally don’t have a clue why he did that. The Don was already dead and he let Isabella go so it just felt like a good twist to throw in at the end even though it makes no sense
i agree with everything like word for word
I mean cesare said it out his own mouth that he wanted ppl to see him that way
It gets darker the more you think about it. He used the fact that Enzo saw him as a friend as a way to kill him. To lure him in and hug him. Then he literally stabbed him in the back. Then like you said, he didn't have to do that at that point. He did that for himself. Possibly because of his jealousy of him, but also because the mob life is literally all he knows. As if he literally couldn't comprehend the points Enzo was trying to make at the end.
Right it made me wonder why kill Enzo if you were gonna let Isabella go and purposely make her a window 🦎
@bradley8614 But at that point the Dons dead and Enzo said "live for yourself, not for him(him meaning the don)".So im guessing he took his advice and killed him, which then telling the family he killed the traitor Enzo would lead to family giving him respect. Then that would lead to one of many steps into becoming a respected and wealthy individual like you said he might of wanted.(But I might be yapping😂)
why would cesare kill enzo and give isabella the ticket right after like he cared all of a sudden?????????????????????????
Exactly. I’m shocked Berlin didn’t react to that like mf why kill him just to complete his mission. Horrible ending to an otherwise great game
Because Enzo was no longer family and killed his uncle. Isabella was still family at the end of the day. He had no reason to kill her or hurt her.
@hunter3551but letting her leave, with Enzo’s baby? That was the main reason why the Don and Tino was pissed. 😭
@lonetiger0774right but Cesare ain’t the Don or Tino. Cesare didn’t even want to kill Enzo at first and probably wouldn’t have had Enzo not killed the Don at that part. Cesare had a problem with Enzo breaking the oath but I think he had more of a problem with Enzo killing the Don and sleeping with his cousin.
I think the whole point of the Isabella stealth scene was to have her kill Tino, but he honestly could have been killed off any other way. Like getting trapped in the burning house or cellar and Isabella leaves him to die as she escapes. Then find Cesare as he drives up to the house and gives her the boat tickets. That scene should’ve just be shorter and I think have more dialogue to show Isabella’s desperation in finding Enzo. I wish we the ending was written better but it was a phenomenal series and you played amazingly Berlin, love to see all the hard work you’re putting in
Well said
It’s literally just an exact replica of the David boss fight from TLOU. I don’t know who in their right mind decided that was the grand finale for the entire story.
I really wish they let this story have a happy ending. It would've shown and meant so much more.
Next Game: LA Noire play through?
People always said it was top tier back in the day but I never played it. Think you’d love it tho
Return to the Yakuza series big bro, the stories are ELITE
😔🤞
Lawd PLEASEEE 😂🙏🏽
REAL
Bro needs to play judgment
Been asking 4 years
Come back Don berleezy 🥺🥺🥺
As much as I loved Enzo, I find the ending pretty fitting to the game’s overall message.
1. Enzo was entrenched deeeep into the mafia lifestyle and had DOZENS of people in the grave at this point. It’s unrealistic to think Enzo would escape untouched.
2. The fact that Isabella was able to win against her own version of the Don, was also a whole character arc in itself.
It’s not a happy ending, but a real one.
Also, Enzo lowering his guard to embrace Cesare at the end - in hopes of rekindling their friendship - may seem a bit on the nose for the plot. But remember: Enzo has always been a deeply kind man. In that moment, he was grasping at straws for any fragment of brotherhood/family. Can we really fault him for choosing naïveté over despair, for clinging to hope?
Only thing that confuses me is Cesare giving Isabella the boat tickets? Like you just killed her man, and then tell her to leave? Huhhhhh lol
I completely agree, but some parts felt a little forced and on the nose
For what reason would he tell her to stay?? His relationship with Enzo and Isabella are completely separate. She's his cousin so its not like he's going to kill her.
@asherandall7441 Exactly, kind of drives home the idea that regardless of the mafia being a "family" the only ones that truly matter to them in any way is their actual kin. Additionally while it seems pretty contradictory at first that he'd give her a way out after all he had just done...I guess you could view it as his final act of grace? The man he looked up to is dead, he killed his "best friend", and finally he drives back home to see the entire lifestyle he upheld in hopes of inheriting went down in flames. In that moment he lost everything, what right and power does he have to force Isabella to stay?
@hansolbling8141 honestly way better than anyway I could of put it. Everything he strived for is burning.
like he kinda screwed up her life more cause now she has to take care of a baby by herself
I am so glad to have watched this whole joint from the start!! Story of Old country was fire ngl, rlly enjoyed every sec of it! Onwards to more Awesome Series!!
Was fire until the last 20 minutes
@1tzLeo1yeah... yeah unfortunately the game started to fall apart at the end. Rip
@Jebadieyea I don't understand how it fell apart. It made perfect sense to me. It hurt like a bitch to watch Enzo die and have to continue the game but it made sense that that would be the order of events. The way Enzo died made sense for his character. It pissed me off but it made sense. I also just got a lot of satisfaction from killing Tino.
The devs really dropped the ball with this one... they wrote themselves into a hole and didn't know how to get out so they just went "fuck it" which is a dam shame, coz this could've been a peak great game.
There's no way this is how it ends.... Y did Cesare even off Enzo if he was just going to let Isabella go free!?.... U know what it's time for a decision based game and I have a recommandation "Road 96"
This was one of the best mafia series I ever watched from a RUclipsr.
Very consistent.
I will love to see you play The Last Of Us again
Same. Berleezys reaction to the end is the best thus far.
facts he has to run back the DLC
No he needs to finish some series
Not run shit back lol yall crazy
@MistahJay7oh well it was just my opinion lol but i understand
Same, i really enjoy series rather than "one time" games
It's funny that what's his name says "you always pulled the trigger" but in the very first kill if you stand still and DON'T shoot.....Tino kills you & it's an automatic death/game over🤣
And you get a trophy 🏆
Sad it’s coming to a end😢
Not too sure why Mafia 3 hasn’t been touched… but I need dat. It’s one for the CULTURE!
Shameful ending 💔
the switch-up towards the end when isabella is being played is kinda yuck. like no hate, cuz everybody's allowed to feel how they feel about the ending & the death of our beloved mc cuz we fucking grew with him man! but i've been sitting watching this whole series back to back with my gf and this game's definitely hit my top 5 overall. its in there with the last of us. like THAT BAD. so let me get nerdy as fuck in these comments then.
my thing is, you're supposed to feel the incoming doom - the whole thing starts getting worse once luca dies because you're hit with the reality of what being in the mafia/a gang/any type of shit like that actually is like. it's not just cool fight scenes and getting the girl of your dreams, being wealthy, all of that. it's nasty, it's dirty, at times it's soulless. you get to see how everybody involved is literally GROOMED into being at the don's beck and call knowing that the don really doesn't care for them in the end. it didn't matter what enzo did - he would've always been that dirty mine boy. it's all about that fake love when he was willing to risk his life for them but him wanting anything for himself? it was the worst type of betrayal, and there's real folks like that out in the world. it hits for me.
enzo embodied everything that luca hoped for at the end and i think that's as beautiful as much as it is painful. when you're taking care of the last of the spadaro's, you're meant to be thinking, "how is the torrissi family gonna end any differently?" because you realize while those men are sitting ducks that they either 1) have nothing outside of this family/job or 2) they have something and it's guaranteed to be lost because of the same violence they repeatedly perpetuated under spadaro's command. and unsurprisingly, the world is VISIBLY ending almost (symbolism of the crumbling of the family internally) - this illusion of wealth, happiness, and power all comes crumbling down when the volcano erupts and you get to thinking about how these people are relentlessly chasing after isabella and enzo for just trying to execute a basic human right.
mind you, something enzo's never been able to actually do his entire life. he was sold into slavery pretty much, then he has no choice but to live as the don's pet because if he doesn't do EVERYTHING for this family, he's guaranteed death. the only time enzo ever wants and goes after it is with isabella. the same thing for her because her entire life she has been a political pawn before she was ever a person. arranged marriages were common back then and still are in certain places in the world.
before she's a person, she's a woman. and it doesn't matter that she's the don's beloved daughter - he wouldn't lift a finger to even allow her the illusion of choice. from the start, she's been fearful of what would happen if her father found out about her relationship with enzo and we learn she was completely right to be! that turn into more of a horror game felt real to me. it was so engaging, to see that despite the fact that she was undoubtedly sheltered, unaware about specific fighting tactics, she stood for what she believed in. everybody else is so convinced she's just acting out, infantilizing her as a child instead of a human being with needs and desires, because she doesn't want to be forced to abort her child. she doesn't want to run the risk of being married off to someone who could easily abuse her just because she would be considered their property. she doesn't want to not have a CHOICE! to me, it's better that she wasn't just written off as the cheap damsel that gets saved again and again. at the end, she worked to save herself with only the hope of a better day tomorrow, with the promise that enzo made to her in mind. is that not what people are trying to do in real life every day?
i admit to you that at the start of this series i was really annoyed with some of isabella's actions like her insistence on enzo choosing her when he would be putting himself at endless risk, but then i stopped to think about the historical context there. she's spent her entire life being socialized into relying on men for everything and frankly, there was little she could've done to actually put their runaway into action WITHOUT enzo. she has a recognizable face and i doubt women had the ability to get much sorted legally too. it hits now, as she's desperately going against her upbringing by killing for the first time, running away, etc.
my opinion is that mafia the old country makes folks feel the same way that last of us 2 did. y'all are gonna hate it because it was a little too human. maybe if you go back to it after years have gone on, when you've felt boxed into a hole, stuck, like if you can't ever change, maybe it'll hit. it's the tragedy of human life, at times.
Berlin we need Mafia 3
Enzo had such a kind heart, they could've at least given him the Angelo ending. the fact that luca died for this is heartbreaking even worse his son sam died like a lame.
Gonna need that Mafia III playthrough, big bro. I know people have mixed opinions of it, but the story is elite and the gameplay loop can be really fun if you get creative about how to approach each mission/loadouts.
Nah I ain't want Enzo to die. That messed my head up, and I was watching this at work. Got everybody wondering why my mood changed and shit 😑😒
YOU GOTTA RUN MAFIA 3 NEXT BERLIN
41:00 Berlin don’t be thinking Leo is a snake bro, that dude is the goat fr
Fr. I had to keep reminding myself who he is in the franchise due to him being young here
We need Mafia 3 bro. The story is so good!
Banger series, thank you for finishing
Berlin complaining about his gun right after leaving the weapons box is something else 😂
Gotta play Mafia 3 next Berlin.
Yakuza Kiwami or Mafia 3 would be PERFECTION
Tbh I’d recommend you play mafia 3, a lot of people whine about the gameplay but it’s really not that bad and the story is a good one. The mc of mafia 3 is like a black punisher and it’s so tough
I personally don’t mind this ending. It’s like real life, unpredictable and unrelenting. Sometimes good ppl aren’t dealt good hands. The ending makes me sad, but not surprised. This is a video game, but I don’t doubt someone went through this frfr.
that man wore that pilgrim outfit for 7 videos...yk ts MUSTY
Yeah it’s called having a washing machine 🧐 you was one of them kids in school weren’t you
The timing with the way Berlin threw down his hat as the body fell to the ground and the thunder rumbled in the background was way too cinematic..damn! What a fking finish to this story..
