I don't think playing as the Don from the beginning would be that interesting because if you are already the Don what do you have to work towards? Also if you are already the Don you can't expect him to go around shooting up New York like in the first one. Now with them putting The Godfather name on it I think that they will most likely continue telling the story of your characters life within the Corleone family. But I liked someones idea about choosing between The Corleones and Roth. Hopefully tho Geraci doesn't make an appearance lmao.
