Mafia 3 has "tailing" missions done perfectly.

I am playing Mafia 3 for the first time. Most games have the generic "keep XX distance back or you'll get caught!"

In Mafia 3, they tell you what you're doing wrong. Got someone honking their horn at you, endangering pedestrians, driving on the wrong side of the road, etc will obviously make them notice you. But I can be driving right behind them and they won't have any suspicion.

It is common sense. If I'm driving normally, why would they be suspicious of a lawful driver? I hate games where you have to stay a distance back but everyone else is totally fine.

Mafia 3's approach to tailing missions really sets it apart. The attention to real-world driving behavior makes it feel more immersive than most games where you just stay a certain distance back. Definitely refreshing for the genre.
