Visually stunning, autism material is there too. Episodic product concept is absolute cancer. But as a game, ehh…
Mechanics can be easily abused to do a SA suit only (which is the most incentivized run) runs without any knowledge of the stages. Game pacing is pretty much non-existent, which is made worse by the fact that it's only supposed to be a season 1 (so, no brutally difficult stages, no proper conclusion to the story, no proper tie-in for all the introduced mechanics to exercise on an "ultimate" stage).
Elusive target is finicky (poison detection bug, client-side save) and wasn't a strategically wise decision on the development team's part since there are unlocks (cosmetic) tied behind SAing 1, 6 and 15 targets and since the funding cut they weren't releasing all that many contracts, more over with continued expansion of the game when episodes were still being released most prior released elusive targets became incompatible with the current version of the game because of the obsolete code included, meaning that all additional content that was included (character layouts, lines of dialogues, character assets) in said contracts is lost.
Usermade contract system works, but ultimately scoring is tied to time and unless target is limited to some particular killing method flying phone will dominate the leaderboards. There is also a subsystem that has derived from contracts - escalation missions, basically the same but challenges that were made by the developers. However, since usermade contract system is so large and provides so much freedom within existing stages - it completely devalues any particular contract, including escalations. If there was an npc/entity placer it would give personality to whatever users could create thus eliminating drawbacks of that competition. Ultimately you won't finding any meaning in doing any of those unless you join the Hitman™ community for the sake of finding TA competition.
As a conclusion cancer that is a current year gaming industry dragged down what could potentially be a great overall game, it's still good niche game though, but are you in that niche and is it worth it to support cancer, that I cant answer for you.
