    The game is pretty solid but after a while it gets very repetitive and has some bugs. The play as anyone is very nice idea, but there is no need to change character for the most of the game and it doesn't take many recruits before the missions to unlock new team members start repeating.

    Watch Dogs Legion is a game that relies on the one core game mechanic of recruiting members to Dedsec, there is a good and a bad that come out of this. The good is that you never run out of side quests to do in order to recruit more people, but the bad is it can get repetitive after doing it for the 50th time. This game took a huge risk with this mechanic, did it pay off, you tell me.

It is still probably the best game in the Watch Dogs series though and it merely depends on the player to like it, its different for everyone.

    A hollow game with not only bugs, but numerous deadpan omissions. I really enjoyed the WD2 gameplay, but WDL is a huge disappointment. it feels like a junior dev team were handed the WD2 template and a few key feature ideas, and then just narrow-mindedly produced that with no critical inputs, ideas or oversight of their own. Even simple QoL features already present in WD2 are missing...A hollow game with not only bugs, but numerous deadpan omissions. I really enjoyed the WD2 gameplay, but WDL is a huge disappointment. it feels like a junior dev team were handed the WD2 template and a few key feature ideas, and then just narrow-mindedly produced that with no critical inputs, ideas or oversight of their own. Even simple QoL features already present in WD2 are missing...

    Just to name a few of the problems/oversights of the game:
    - The much hyped "play as anyone" system falls flat when 99%+ of possible recruits are vastly inferior to the ones handed to you early in the game. These recruits comes with 4 useful traits, whereas everyone else you find the entire game only have 0-2(a few archetype recruits with 3 useful traits can be found at a couple places, but they all have identical traits). Ended up playing only 3 different characters the whole game.
    - Story becomes rather bland with extremely few actual characters to grow attached to. The plot is extremely stereotypical and trope filled. And the games major climax point(predictable as it is) is immediately and unexplained reversed.
    - Driving mechanics and camera are terrible and the environment dreary, causing London's streets to be a chore to traverse. Coupled with many missions being procedurally generated from random locations, you find your self traveling all across town for each stage of a mission. All this forces you to use the quick travel system instead, diminishing the value of having a sprawling city to explore. I loved exploring in WD2's San Francisco, but here I just cannot be bothered.
    - The in-game currency is practically worthless, since all it can be used for is buying clothes. Coupled with most collectibles being irrelevant from a gameplay perspective, exploring the map and finding these does not feel rewarding.
    - In-game clothing shops are not individually marked on the map, so trying to find clothing of a specific type is a real hassle.
    - While clothing is somewhat decently varied, things like masks are either just reskins of each other, or ridiculous looking. Again, not giving much insensitive to explore to find them.
    - The games music stations can only be played when in a vehicle. Apparently streaming music to your phones becomes impossible in the future... Since driving sucks, you go almost the entire game without, which is a huge loss of ambiance for a game.
    - Outside a narrow collection of default non-lethal weapons that can be bought from tech-points, all weapons must be found by recruiting people who have them. And the weapon system is really confusing and limited, so even when you have a recruit with a new weapon, you probably wont be able to use it on any other more useful recruits. Some weapons are unique, so cannot be shared with other recruits. Others are put into categories, so unless your recruit came with an SMG eg. he will not be able to ever use one. Even your badass hitman that wields pistols, grenade launchers, machineguns and rifles simply cannot equip an SMG.
    - The hacking gameplay have become way too easy. In WD2 it could be a challenging puzzle to try and play the game as a peaceful hacker, since it involved using 2 different drones, the environment etc. In WDL you can do everything(outside a few story mission) with the single Spider Drone, while your operative is parked way outside the area in safety. Just drop the spider down, stealth through the area, do takedowns with it to thin the enemy, go hack the target terminal and hide the drone while it downloads. There is simply no challenge to it.
    - Bugs, bugs, bugs. The game repeatedly crashes to desktop. For me it was almost always close to the end of one of the bigger story missions, that had to be done again from scratch. Gameplay is also buggy in numerous little ways. Like doing a mission to rescue someone and once they are out of the area, they stop and prompts you to talk to them to finish mission. As you finish the conversation with them, they fall through whatever they were standing on, get knocked out and injured and you fail the mission...
    - While it may feel like a long time due to being boring a lot of the time, I finished the game just under 40 hours. That is including exploring a lot, experimenting with recruits(basically looking unsuccessfully for other useful ones), doing all side quests and a bunch of other side stuff. And I feel like there is zero replay value(I will be going back to WD2 over this). That is too short for a big open world game at full AAA price...

    All in all, a rushed and shallow game that never lives up to its hype, or its predecessor. It had lots of potential, but never met it. If you enjoy the standard Ubisoft open world game formula(I do), then get it once it becomes discounted and possibly improved through updates or DLCs.    … Expand

    História: É bem "OK", poderia ser boa se fosse melhor apresentada dentro do jogo.

    Gráficos: Assim como a história do jogo, é bem "OK" também, com exceção da água que é horrorosa no jogo.

    Física: Completamente esquisita, especialmente no carro.

    Bugs: Confesso que não vi muitos mas dos que eu presenciei são eles: Bug de textura, o famoso bug da moto fantasma que anda em círculos sozinha, e o jogo crashou algumas vezes também.

    Otimização: Deixa a desejar.

    Áudio (sons do jogo e trilha sonora): Na minha opinião os sons de disparos de seu antecessor, Watch Dogs 2, eram superiores, os sons dos veículos não bons e nem ruins, são "OK" e quanto a trilha sonora, abaixo da média.

    Expressões faciais e modelagem de personagens: Essa talvez seja uma das maiores bizarrices desse jogo, as expressões faciais são totalmente sem vida e a modelagem dos personagens é digna de um jogo feito em 2015.

    Animações: Considero ser abaixo da média para um jogo lançado em 2020.

    Detalhes que fazem a diferença: Essa daqui ganha sendo a coisa mais bizarra de todo esse jogo, sabe o que acontece quando vc tenta pular um muro, ou um portão que tenha lanças? NADA, o boneco simplesmente pula como se nada estivesse espetando a mão dele, é uma desatenção total aos detalhes por parte da desenvolvedora, assim como a falta de interior de lojas de roupas, a falta de estações de metrô modeladas.

    Serei justo também, o jogo tem seus aspectos positivos, sendo o maior deles (e um dos únicos) a representação de Londres muito bem feita, porém é uma pena que essa Londres seja tão vazia em termos de falta de NPC nas ruas e de elementos básicos de Mundo Aberto que não estão presentes no jogo.

    A minha nota de verdade é 5.8, porém o Metacritic não deixa colocar número "quebrado" na análise, então serei obrigado a arredondar para o número "cheio" mais próximo, no caso, 6.0.    … Expand

    The game looks nice and overall a decent game. The story is repetitive and cliché, the hacking is great at first but after the 25. time its boring, the twists can be seen far away. Gameplay with several characters is unique, but the conversations are awkward because of this most of the time and no personal storyline is present.

    Worst in the series. I'll give it a 5 because it looks good but the gameplay and story is so generic.
    Voice acting is terrible, cringe worthy and recycled. It feels like there are 10 voice tracks, randomly matched to any character.

Despite enjoying the thrill of recruiting people, completing missions, and hacking things, I have noticed several optimization issues that I cannot overlook. Especially since I expected better from a company that knows how to create an Open World.
    For instance, every 10/15 minutes, characters suddenly appear on the road while driving. Additionally, I encountered missions that completed themselves without me doing anything, such as the one where one of my activists had just been arrested and then, by entering a new zone, I was praised for destroying the weapons depot, which was located in another area.
    I also stumbled upon strange interpenetrations between NPCs and objects in the surrounding environment, such as when I saw a window cleaner approaching, only to discover that he was completely "melded" with the building behind him.
    Another thing that I didn't like was the lack of interaction between standard characters. I noticed that even if some of them know each other, such as a grandmother and an activist grandson, they seem like perfect strangers during dialogues.
    Compared to the previous two installments, Watch Dogs Legion seemed far inferior, yet the first one was a masterpiece, and the second had a lively world full of activities that made you forget the repetitiveness of the main story.    … Expand

    Watch Dogs Legions is a disappointment, and honestly feels like a downgrade from Watch Dogs 2 in every way possible, driving feels sluggish and janky with no impact damage and significant recycled content over and over feels like them mission structure was just copy/pasted too many times.

    Graphically speaking, Ubi did a great job of rendering a fairly accurate London and I'm British and visited London many times, its attention to detail is well above par and I think that is where the problems start, I think they spent too much time on eye candy.

    Gameplay wise, it's still watch dogs at its heart with the ability to make your own fun in the open world, travel around and explore and do all the typical side content you would expect in an open world Ubi-soft game, the problem I personally have with Albion who are the paramilitary organization that framed Dedsec this time around, the problem is they are either extremely overpowered and at the same time, dumb as two rocks.

    The case of being overpowered is simple, when your driving around London, Albion pursuit cars will spawn frequently 'just popping up' out of thin air to ram you at ridiculously high speeds, speed these chases makes it nearly impossible to use hacking to move cars away from you, or too activate pillar traps like in Watch Dogs 2 which made for some entertaining and satisfying escapes, and trying to disable drones whilst driving is even more frustrating then once you hack a cargo drone and fly away Albion suddenly can't do anything to stop you escaping, in fact travelling by cargo drone quickly becomes the defacto method to travel around the city.

    The ability to recruit everyone is entertaining for about 10 minutes, getting an old 80 year old to fight is comical at best, and essentially pointless at worse when you can find specialists who actually have helpful abilities. The skill tree is also significantly dumbed down again for Legions mostly revolving around the ability to hijack Albion drones being the most useful.

    Overall, its a passable game but significantly weaker in every department than Watch Dogs 2. I'll be honest and say that covid-19 probably didn't help the development of this game at all, and it shows.    … Expand

    Legion doesn't do much to improve on the foundation made by WD2. Parkour system is exactly the same although somehow not as cool.

Parkour system is exactly the same although somehow not as cool. Gunplay too also saw no changes, infact there's less variety in weapon selection because of the "play as anyone" gimmick which leads to other problems i will touch on later. The story suffers from the USP of the game since there are only roughly 10 unique voices in the game and the voice acting isn't very good either. Lines are copy and pasted and repeated throughout missions. The bad voice acting detaches you even more from the cast of recruits, especially when the voice doesnt match the face and Why is half the population of London from Ireland?

    With hacking there is some more features since the story has a big focus on his autonomous drones, but still this aspect is mostly untouched. On a less important note the character face models are definitely not "Next gen" they are on par with Assassins Creed Unity faces and that game is 6 years old. This is obviously due to the fact that they did not go for a single main protagonist so they had to make sacrafices in that department in order to make every NPC face somewhat "good". However aside from the face models the game is gorgeous especially at night time with ray tracing on.

    Speaking of performance the game runs like **** I have a Ryzen 7 2700x, RTX 2070 and 16GB RAM, running the game at 1080p medium-high settings with ray tracing on and i only average 35 FPS.

    Gameplay. Although not much has changed since WD2 the gameplay is still fun and addicting, the open world feels very much alive and the aesthetic of near futre London does look amazing. However the game lacks a variety of enemy types, Albion solders, police, and gangsters all behave the same, you have a shotgunner to rush you and machine gunners, drones aren't really a threat since hacking them is as easy as abc. There is a new combat system however, its not too deep and for some enemys your only option is to rinse repeat the SINGLE counter animation until there health bar depletes then finish them off. Gunkata takedowns are sexy though.
    On the brightside the variety in Operatives to play as will make you approach missions and outposts differently since they offer different special abilities. Alot of the more common NPCs are all just copy pasted with different character model and proffesion.
    Clothes customization sees an improvement with loads more ways to dress your character and the abundance of shops on every high street adds to the realism.
    Many times I've been walking the streets and random NPCs will just fight or pull a gun and try to rob one another, or when finding your first Spy outside the MI-6 building and overhearing their convesation on the phone with one of ther apprentices in the field. Multiple albion hostages detained on the streets, even the occasional "sorry" and "suck your mum" which as a brit myself can confirm is all we say to eachother. It all feels alive.

    Driving still sucks in Watch Dogs, do I need to say more?

    This is another sort of nitpick but since the start of the game its been very hard to find male "Skilled" operatives. I myself am a man so ofcourse I prefer to play as a man, and I was never really excited about playing as anyone, like who wants to play as a construction worker or beekeeper? So I wanted go find some hitmen and Spys to play as but oh no, Ubisoft is shoving female characters down my throat with force. The Spy, Hitman and Anarchist you get for defying their respective boroughs are all female, again this isnt really an issue but like i said I want to play as male characters and is a tad annoying

    Overall this game is very mixed. I do enjoy my time playing although not much has been changed gameplay wise, the world is immersive and gorgeous, but driving sucks and with the abundance of fast travel points why should i drive? The story is lack luster and voice acting is terrible. I'd say do what I did and buy Uplay+ for a month its only 13 quid if you wanna play the game DO NOT pay full price its not worth it and if you dont have good specs on your pc dont expect to tmrun high settings and or get above 60FPS.    … Expand

    I was really looking forward to this, but I should have hesitated with pre-ordering it. Sadly as I expected from "play as anyone" it had its downsides that kicked in after few hours of gameplay, but well, lets start with posivites.

    Positives: - London looks awesome - Graphics are somewhat bit better than in WD2 (also goes to negatives with framerate) - Gameplay is addictive - It's    I was really looking forward to this, but I should have hesitated with pre-ordering it. Sadly as I expected from "play as anyone" it had its downsides that kicked in after few hours of gameplay, but well, lets start with posivites.

    Positives:
    - London looks awesome
    - Graphics are somewhat bit better than in WD2 (also goes to negatives with framerate)
    - Gameplay is addictive
    - It's cool to be able to pick anyone on street
    - Recruitment missions are fun
    - City is alive, a lot of stuff is happening on streets
    - A lot gadgets to choose from, a lot of cloths for operatives (visual customization)
    - AI protagonist is fun

    Negatives:
    - Framerate... I played WD2 week ago and it ran way better on similarly-looking settings, optimalization is just BAD in WDL
    - You can get anyone, but you cannot really upgrade anyone other than to give them one of few unlockable weapons and gadgets.. I hoped there will be some leveling system or way more stuff to give operatives, also having just selectable gadget at time is just not enough variety
    - LOADING SCREENS! They are everywhere, almost every interior has loading screens, it's just lame in 2020, when WD2 back then had a lot of interiors...
    - Almost no interiors other than mission one...
    - Operatives have bonuses but mostly you are able to complete mission or place with whatever operative
    - Operatives (characters) really lack depth, no levels
    - Lack of real side missions

    I wanted to really like this game, I was looking forward to it. But it really lacks depth, not thanks to the system but because noone cared about possibilities of this system - like being able to level up operatives and give them some perks, more weapons, more passive/active abilities according to their specialities. This would be really interesting to have fewer operatives but levelable in certain ways. So, "play as anyone" is not really bad, but the lack of depth in it is bad. I kinda lack being able to change their hairstyle and stuff as well, it's just a shame.

    Storywise I kinda like it, it could be better though. I was happy for AI member of team, it reminded me bit of Wrench that I liked from WD2.

    Give it a try when it will be for 15-20€ or get it through Uplay+, don't pay full price for it now, it is definetly not worth it.    … Expand

    The game looks very good at ultra with everything on. It runs pretty smoothly with the right settings. i feel the game looks better than anything I've seen on my Xbox one x or ps5 pro. I don't understand why people didn't like the visuals.

    The story is bland. It didn't pull me in. I really wanted to like it but it just never hit for me. It's like waiting for a bass drop in a techno song and it never gets there or like driving a boosted car and the boost doesn't kick in. I'm not sure if its because there isn't a central protagonist but the story didn't worth feel playing.

    The game doesn't really lead you well. I'm not sure how to say this but some games hold you're hands too much in the early stages and there are some games where the systems just feel right and you kind of can just go in and play. Spider-man for the ps4 felt this way. WDL even though uses systems from many other games it just didn't feel natural. Like collecting little side items etc didn't feel fluid.

    The concept of playing anyone is cool but to be honest it didn't work out. It's too any choices. In theroy its cool but it just didn't pan out.

    The driving physics are pretty good for an open-world game. It matches a game like GTA pretty well. The music selection was good but it would have been nice if I turned off the radio in one car it stayed off in the next car.

    The weapons and gadgets are fun to play. I stealth wasn't sam fisher good but it was good enough for me. I was pretty much able to play any style I wanted.

    I'm not saying this game is a pass but I think some people may or may not like it. Its a decent game but I personally would wait for it to be on sale before I buy this game. At this time of the year when there are other big games on the way this is a pass for me. I would rather be playing Hades at this time while waiting for AC Valhala.

I spent an hour running around talking to people who looked SOMEWHAT okay, just to find ONE woman who had a voice I could stomach listening to. I played the whole game with this chick, completely ignoring all the special trait characters you get, because they sounded horrible.

    The whole concept of "play as anyone" seemed a bit far fetched at first, but I gotta say: they pulled it off and it works surprisingly well in the game's favor. The whole gameplay loop is good and the different ways of approaching missions, whether that's going in full stealth mode like some Mission Impossible movie or going in guns blazing, it's surprisingly flexible and doesn't keep you on a tight leash when it comes to all of that. Shame though that in all my hours I've been benching the game, I've had the same recruitment mission happen like 3 times already, and keep encountering people with the same haircut, voice, whatever. This is understandable since we can't expect a whole library of characters with the whole "play as anyone" mechanic, although it's just a shame since it's pretty un-immersive and there's no way to change a character's hairstyle or appearance or anything either, or at least not to my knowing. I dunno, maybe I just got unlucky too.

    I LOVE the world though; the dystopian future post-brexit London is great and provides such a great ambiance, it's amazing to walk/drive/swim/fly through: so many sights to see, items to collect, things to do in general, they did a great job on that whole department.

    The main story I haven't advanced all too far yet as of writing this review, but it's so-so in my opinion; It's pretty interesting with how it all plays out and has some interesting turns, though there are some cliché's.. Which, to be honest, is kind of to be expected with how almost nothing seems like it's original anymore these days. Regardless, I also find it disappointing the way Ubisoft and developers "overhyped" the storyline, praising it and saying how it's one of the best things about the game (see UbiCentral's interview with one of the people working on the game).

    It's a shame too that it still seems rather unpolished in certain areas, like the prestige operators I got from the Urban Jungle pack have really pixelated assets in the teams menu, some npc's bugging out or dying by stubbing their toe against a corner or something, not to mention the hours of trouble I've had to even get the game working without it crashing on me (tried contacting Ubisoft support but to no avail, since their live chat was disabled, they weren't replying to forum posts on the matter and the twitter support account didn't reply to my request to check it out or help either). Some of these little flaws I can overlook, but from a triple A game you wouldn't really expect these flaws. Not going to compare to any others in particular here, but it's just a shame that there are still this many little bugs and fixes that need to be done.

    I am however excited for the online content and season pass when they finally release, though I find it a shame and a bit odd they're not out yet.. Hopefully in the month or two that's left before the updates start releasing, they'll polish it up and make sure it's not that buggy or anything like the main game right now.

    Overall: I have enjoyed my time on it so far and will definitely be playing more, just a shame that it's not living up to expectations as much as I'd hoped.    … Expand

It has some of the same qualities of the nemesis system from the shadow of mordor/war games.

    A lot of the time the voice acting doesn't match the characters or the situation as everything has to be a sort of generic line since there is no main character. It seems in some ways a step back from Watch Dogs 2. No more tech tree, everything is very streamlined, no customization at the cool 3D printing station; now its all just through the menu and done at any time. Most of the hacking stuff is available right away except for manipulating drones. There's a pretty limited amount of things to unlock but it seems that it is to encourage you to go recruit more people as they have other special abilities and vehicles, weapons etc. The stuff you unlock is pretty basic and seems to serve as a baseline for your new recruits in the beginning of the game.

    Also, one thing i didn't like in particular is how many load screens there are. Like special events, specific mission events and going between indoor outdoor cells. Specifically the bare knuckle boxing events. You just walk up to the door, warp in to the fight and warp back out. Some of the story missions have loading screens where they could of had a simple animation. It's not a huge deal but it's these kind of things that I expect now because of other open world games of this era and it just makes the game feel low quality.

    All in all I am having fun but it is a bit bland and doesn't really seem like they have brought much new to the table besides the recruitment system.

    The story and driving are both serviceable but nothing special. The gameplay is very easy even on the hard setting. You can use a cargo drone to get what you want most of the time.

    Watch Dogs Legion *would* be a fun romp through a beautifully-crafted open world - but it is slightly hindered by doughy and unrealistic character faces, the occasional unforgivably bad voice actor in an otherwise competent cast.

    Moreover, it's not just hindered but beaten bloody and kneecapped by its ATROCIOUS, nearly unplayably low framerates.

    I have 16 gb of system ram, an m2 SSD, and a freaking RTX 3080 - yet at 4k, 1440p, and 1080p alike, average FPS while driving or running through the city (90% of actual game time) is in the 20s and sometimes 30s, spiking up to mid-40s and above only in indoor environments or in mission areas. Even at the bare minimum graphics settings with RTX off and DLSS at "ultra performance" and down to jag-o-rific 1080p (likely rendering at 720p!), my frames STILL only average in the 30s and 40s with laughably low-res, MMO-worthy soup textures. The game's benchmark is very pretty and still runs quite well for me at max settings (high 40s), but is horiffically misleading as to actual gameplay performance, since it takes place in a small, curated level rather than the game's large open world.

    For perspective; Control, RDR2, GTAV, and pretty much every other modern graphically-demanding game I've thrown at my system runs at a stable 60 FPS in 4k, with or without DLSS. I kid you not, Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 runs better at maxed-out settings on my build than Watch Dogs Legion does.

    Chances are this game will run perfectly stable on the upcoming Xbox Series X and PS5, which it was *very* obviously designed for; but unless you have a brand-spanking-new PC build with a CPU that's less than a year old, this game runs unforgivably poorly. Unless a major upcoming patch is on the way to take a wrench to the game's poorly-optimized graphics code, I can't recommend spending a dime on the PC version of this game.    … Expand

    The bad things are the bad driving mechanics, nothing has improved here sadly, the "meh" story after the brilliant and dark beginning and the horrible performance on PCs. (And these water effects aaargh)

    All in all a bit better than the predeccesors, but not the big step it was advertised as.

    This review score might still change until I complete the game.    … Expand

    I had hopes that Watch Dogs Legion will be a dark horse of 2020, especially considering the lack of marketing around. Unfortunately, I ended up being wrong. WD Legion feels more like a side step for the franchise then a proper new entry. And not a good one at that.

Unfortunately, I ended up being wrong. WD Legion feels more like a side step for the franchise then a proper new entry. And not a good one at that.

    As usual, Ubisoft did a great job on virtual tourism. Dystopian post-Brexit London looks stunning, especially with ray-tracing on. But that's about it for the good news.

    PC version is horribly optimised, even with ray-tracing off, and full of bugs. Then there's boring storyline, with unmemorable villains. Since we don't have a protagonist anymore, but can play as virtually any npc in the game, there are no well-written memorable character you would care about. Same goes for your "gang". Huge downgrade from Watch Dogs 2 in that regard.

    Then there are chacters with certain perks and skills. Most of them are useless or very limited, to the point that there is no reason for you to play as them. You can't just customise weapons anymore and can't pick up enemies' weapons either. Skills and gadgets tree is very limited and unimpressive either. It looks like they had to strip down skill and gadget tree and reassign it's elements to certain characters. For the same reason they removed weapon customisation - to make your recruits feel more unique. But was it worth it? Definitely not. I would much rather have a full skill tree and weapon customization to mix and match to my liking.

    AI feels much dumber than in WD2 as well. Albion patrol cars constantly have sirens on, indicating they are rushing somewhere, but they don't try to go around other cars and just stand there in the traffic. Stealing a car in front of Albion officer doesn't always result in wanted status. Sometimes they don't care at all, sometimes they put sirens on but don't do anything else, just stand there with sirens on and no wanted status. Pedestrians keep walking into walls and crossing the road back and forth for no reason. Npc and your car on auto-drive move very slowly, even if there's no one driving in front of you.

    I could go on and on about flaws of this game but it wasted enough of my time already. In many aspects, this game is much worse than WD2. I guess, it's one of those Ubisoft scenarios when studios take turns on making new entries for a certain franchise, and this time it was an incompetent studio's turn.    … Expand

    The enviroment is stunning. Futuristic european city mixing the old and brand new architecture looks breathtaking and I just love roaming these streets. But that's where Ubisoft excellance ends. Story is alright, but could use more drive. Game lets you decide some moral decisions yet they don't feel like it. Idea of recycling is good, but not in games. Visiting the same location for a fifth time is just no go.
    As for the play as anyone you wish, interesting concept, but not greatly excecuted and not really suitable for this. You can recruit people via one of 7 generic quests, which makes you drive all across London back and forth. You will use the metro system for this a lot, but you have to discover all those station first (like the devs never saw a map in metro). It doesn't feel like you can play anyone. You can play as someone acting like one of few written characters and sometimes it just feels weird. I also haven't seen a difference in recruiting with liberated borough, quests are the same. This system doesn't allow you to build anything towards the character, because you can just replace him like a pawn in a strategy game. This means cutscenes are more generic and less personal, previous titles have them done better. I'd say this was not so successful side step, but interesting experiment nontheless.
    Don't buy it for the full price, buy a Uplay+ for a month, it's enough time to play it once since you'll likely won't replay it again in the future.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. While the recruitment mechanic is a great idea, it falls flat on its face. Game developers cannot create a well rounded character or fully detailed character model for every possible recruit in the city, not even for the special operatives you will unlock when you liberate each borough. Therefore, as a player you cannot really connect with any of them. One special operative in particular is very poorly designed, with the way he looks and his profession, being very dissimilar with the way he speaks. Furthermore, after a few hours in the game you can start using only one operative, regardless of the mission, as you become ustoppable with all the tech you have unlocked.
    London is very well designed though and the story is quite good, however you can see all the plot twists coming from a mile away.
    Graphics are ok. I cannot see any major improvements over the last entry in the series, while Ray Tracing really doesn't bring anything visually groundbreaking in the visuals apart from tanking your frame rate.
    In general it is an OK game to spend some time on. Don't buy it full price though as it isn't worth it.    … Expand

    This new mechanic is a great idea that is poorly implemented, My first character was a suave looking black guy with a posh English accent, his personality oozed charisma and all credit goes to the voice actor, by my 6th mission however he was dead, and instead I found myself playing as a Jamaican guy as he was the only voice actor in my collection who wasn't irritating. This being a game set in london I was really looking forwards to playing as a relatable protagonist, I found one guy I sorta liked but he got killed in the next mission due to a bug, I ended up playing the rest of the game as a camp Gen Z bloke who was quirky enough but didn't really deliver much during the games climactic scenes.

    I think it would have been better if they hadn't made such broad strokes, focused on 12 or so characters and built them up more so that when you loose them you feel it. Sure you could say that more playable avatars leads to more variety but 95% of the operatives I encountered during my 30 hour playthrough were either Jamaican or Female, or like, just plain drab.

    London proved itself to be a great reproduction, the gameplay itself was solid and locations were well put together, there was a lot of effort put into some of these spots but quite often you'd be in and out in 3 minutes by dropping a spider drone from the sky exactly where you needed them to be. I felt a bit bad for the level designers!

    At the 30 hour mark the game was starting to outstay it's welcome, I definitely got my moneys worth and it was fun to play, there was just something about this game that didn't sell itself to me. Like, why was it that every British character spoke like "Wa gwan rude boi, dat car is peng" or just posh, where were the scousers, the mancs, the southerners, the brummies?

Я в определённом моменте вообще застрял на непроходимом паркуре.

    The weakest of the franchise. I was pretty pumped about WD 3 and after finishing it I almost instantly forgot about it. What a shame.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. It's fun enough game to mess around with until actual stars of 2020 are coming out like Assassin's Creed Valhalla or Black Ops… Expand

    WD Legion however burns my soul, What happened, where is the cinematic prowess, why does Aiden Pearce look like an Old bum?

    This franchise needs a Remake Now, I don't want a Watch_dogs IV because clearly, your developers, writers, and executives do not know where this franchise needs to be heading.

    Do you want some help? Just ask me, ask anyone that understands the idea behind Watchdogs, This Franchise is my number one priority that requires a remake, completely from the ground up.
    And you decide Black Flag needs an Update, how dense are you?

    One day, and I guarantee this, One day I will work for you, I will pitch a Watchdogs Remake, and you're not gonna say no.

    WD Legion is the worst game in the franchise, period, and I dislike almost every single aspect of it.
    But I'm fair towards games, that's just my nature, so congratulations you get a 5/10. It is a borderline standard game, it's not bad, it's not good either.

    If you ever come to your senses and start development on a Watch_Dogs remake I want to be in on it. I will not let an opportunity like that be wasted, by poor management, and development, at least not in this reality.    … Expand

    No creo que sea el mejor juego de Ubisoft. Es mediocre, es dificil encariñarse de algunos de sus personajes, sus misiones son bien repetitivas, entre otras cosas. Lo que si puedo decir es que lo de los personajes da cierto gran abanico para pasar la historia, además de que gráficamente luce muy bien. Por lo demás, está mal optimizado hasta el día de hoy. Comprarlo solo si está en oferta.

    Legion is a return to the darker roots of Watch Dogs. It is also the best game in the series, regardless of whether you’re inclined to avoid violence and solve problems DedSec style (by hacking), or prefer to unleash a hail of bullets. The story improved big time and it is unsettling to realize how much the game’s dystopian reality resembles our own. [13/2020, p.62]

    This is the worst kind of sandbox, with bland, repetitious gameplay, and barely existing narrative.

    Watch Dogs: Legion is a fun game, but in the end it doesn't stand out. The possibility of recruiting anyone is ambitious, but many, perhaps even more important elements have fallen victim to it. The game unfortunately falls into the ranks: to play and forget. [Issue#307]
