One of the great attractions of sandbox, beyond doing what we please, is that they enjoy a lot of verticality thanks to the fact that you can fly planes or helicopters, in most cases. Hence, the greatest litmus test is inevitable: jump into the void to see if its protagonist survives.
Anyone who has ever played Grand Theft Auto V you know what happens, as in previous installments, but … Could you say in which sandbox we don’t die like this?
From the Betaz channel they have done the test and I was surprised by the result, except for the obvious Saints Row IV, because there we are practically superheroes. If we put aside the acrobatics or other types of gestures that the character on duty performs while he is falling into the void, he did not expect the survivor anywhere …
And it is that as you will see, in Mafia: Definitive Edition there is no fall damage penalty. Something that I did not remember even remotely and that surprises me not having tried at the time with how much I am given to this kind of experiments.
Luckily, this kind of game has been adopting for quite some time the possibility of opening the parachute and thus surviving 100% of this type of falls. But let’s face it, sometimes it’s cool to see how the avatar’s physics react … especially if he’s in the middle of the test of the Saints Row insurance fraud.
