Aug 26, 2021especially the takedown animations are very nice. In general, the animations are good. London looks great. Gameplay is good but hacking is reduced.

Oct 31, 2020People complaining about performance while putting every setting on ultra+ ray tracing with their 5 years old computer are jokes. Watch Dogs Legion is solid sequel to the first game. I never liked second game, it was too childish.
-
Oct 31, 2020After playing Watch Dogs Legion about 10 hours i can say that much: beautiful open world, tons of unique characters to recruit, story is fine, cool easter eggs. Performance is solid, if you have up-to date PC. Even tho story isn't greatest thing ever in this one, true winner is the open world that it has. I have high hopes for Aiden dlc.
-
Oct 31, 2020Solid modern open-world game to have fun with. Not every game needs to be extremely deep or have "Dune" level writing. Jesus. It's perfectly fine game. Graphics are nice, story is fine, by any means it doesn't deserve user score 4.0. That's just absurd. I have played it about 8-9 hours and had 1 crash. I personally haven't experienced any bugs serious bugs yet. I would very much recommend it.
-
Oct 31, 2020If you don't like it, don't play it. You don't need 10 accounts to whine about it. Now about game. So far, city looks beautiful, driving is fun, tons of cool characters to recruit.
-
Oct 31, 2020lmao it's hilarious to watch losers giving 0-s because they can't buy it. And they all claim that they will buy cyberpunk and then they just pirate it. Pathetic. Anyways, watch dogs legion is surprisingly good, i wasn't expecting much, because i didn't like watch dogs 2 at all. 10 hours into game and i'm having fun, so yea. Might be one of the better games of 2020.

Oct 31, 2020Runs well with RTX 2070, there's no need to max out everything. Fun game, would recommend. Not sure what's with low user score, but i bet it's typical that losers who take gaming way too seriously need to downvote everything they haven't even played.
-
Oct 31, 2020Solid open-world. Reminds me Watch Dogs 1. Fact that you can play as pretty much any character in the world is very unique. I personally feel one main character or even team of 6 would have been better, but i still like the game. I'm mostly excited for Aiden (main character of first game) dlc.

Oct 31, 2020Looking at user score, it's pretty clear that CDprojectred fanboys (who pirate their games btw) have just mass down voted watch dogs legion without even trying it. That just shows how bitter these people really are.
Anyway, if you liked watch dogs 1, go buy legion, it's worth it. It will have Aiden too later. It wont get craked anyway before 2021, so yea. -

Nov 1, 2020Is it must buy? NO, is it one of the worst game of 2020? NO, in fact, far from it. What you saw in trailer is exactly what you're going to get. At least they didn't lie to their fans like Naughty Dog did with last of us 2. And to make it clear, watch dogs legion is about million times more enjoyable than last of us 2.
-
Nov 1, 2020
-
Nov 1, 2020Watch Dogs Legion is average at best, but still miles better than last of us part 2, so that makes it basically automatic win-win for ubisoft. I would recommend buying assassin's creed valhalla instead of watch dogs legion and waiting until legion has some dlc content.
-
Nov 1, 2020I mean it's better than last of us 2, so do i need to say anything else? lol

Nov 2, 2020so far it's just fine. No technical issues so far. I had my expectations really low, so it's actually better than i imagined. Hopefully DLC's will improve it even more.
-
Nov 2, 2020
-
Nov 2, 2020It's fun enough game to mess around with until actual stars of 2020 are coming out like Assassin's Creed Valhalla or Black Ops.
-
Nov 2, 2020It's no masterpiece, but it's not that bad either. Deserves way higher score, this game is at least 7.
-
Nov 2, 2020Watch Dogs 1 is better, but this one is okay. Nothing super special, not awful either. There's way more to do in this open world then for example in mafia 1 remake, so there's that.
-
Nov 2, 2020Pretty interesting concept, i'm not saying it's day 1 buy, but on sale? sure
-
Nov 2, 2020It's NOT must buy, but, it's still fun enough game to pass time until true 2020 hits come out (AC Valhalla, Black Ops, Miles Morales). Beautiful graphics, fun recruitment system, meh story.
-
Nov 2, 2020
-
Nov 2, 2020i'm about 20 hours into game and wanted to check metascore and i'm seriously confused what's with all the neagativity and 0 scores??? It's honestly pretty fun game, unlike last of us 2 by developers who made depression simulator 2020.
-
Nov 2, 2020Pretty solid game to pass time with or just have fun in the city. What makes this game different from other watch dogs games is "recruit anyone" mechanic, basically play as any npc you see on streets. And you can build an army of people basically. But there will be later dlc that focuses on single character story, so basically this game has both aspects.
-
Nov 2, 2020It's actually pretty fun game. I mean there have been way worse games in 2020.
-
Nov 2, 2020Nice graphics, gameplay is generally fun, story is meh, better than watch dogs 2.
-
Nov 2, 2020Mostly hyped for DLC, but recruit anyone mechanic is cool too. Performance is fine with rtx 2060/2070/2080.
-
Nov 2, 2020If you don't want some extremely deep lore and just wanna free roam and recruit random npc's then by any means it's worth trying out. No bugs so far.
-
Nov 2, 2020From technical standpoint it's fine, still could use some patches. Graphically nothing special, not bad either. Story is weak. True standout is hacking and character recruitment. I'm hopeful that dlc's story makes it more interesting. Wait for sale.
-
Nov 2, 2020Not every video game needs to be miracle okay? It has way more interesting open world than for example Mafia 1 Remake (no hate btw, just saying). This user score makes no sense.
But i mean who cares really, it will sell millions of copies no matter what. Ubisoft is popular enough. Just watching people livestreaming this game makes it very clear that most people enjoy it for what it is. -
Nov 2, 20202019 was pretty rough year for ubisoft, but seems like they are back on track again. This year might be even bigger for them than 2018, specially with AC Valhalla coming out very soon.
I'm not saying watch dogs legion is something extremely special, but it's million times better ubi game than ghost recon breakpoint. I have played 10 hours so far and it's pretty fun. -
Nov 2, 2020Reminds me watch dogs 1 way more than watch dogs 2 and that's a good thing. There could be more areas outside London, but it's fine.
-
Nov 2, 2020Pretty solid entry in watch dogs series, i like it way more than second game. Second game was just meh. This one actually has fun stuff to do.
-
Nov 2, 2020driving could use some improvements, map could use more variety (more than just city), but overall it's solid
-
Nov 2, 2020positives: hacking, open-world, recruitment system, some cool east eggs
negatives: story is meh -
Nov 2, 2020It's overall very fun game. Performance of course depends on your PC, but basically if you want these reflections you need RTX GPU. And these RTX reflections truly look nice. It's almost weird going back to older open world games after experiencing it in Legion.
Story is whatever, but hacking, free roaming is tons of fun. -
Nov 2, 2020If you have truble with RTX (low fps) then DLSS helps a lot. Run's fine with RTX 2070, unless you want 4k or some nonsense like that.
-
Nov 2, 2020Reflections are truly amazing, specially at night time. London looks absolutely stunning.
There aren't many open world cities that are so beautifully re-created. So far, it's solid. -

-
Nov 2, 2020While Marvel's Avengers was truly disappointing, watch dogs legion is actually surprisingly fun open-world game.
-
Nov 2, 2020Performance is fine for the most part. Few patches would certainly help. Story sucks for the most part.
True fun comes from open world hacking / recruiting character stuff. very hopeful for dlc's to improve the game. also multiplayer is promising. -
Nov 3, 2020Not perfect. but still pretty solid open-world game. Hacking, recruiting, it's all there just like trailers showed. I prefer watch dogs 1, but legion is fun thing to have fun with.
-
Nov 3, 2020
-
Nov 3, 2020. So many accounts who gave 0 have 1 review lmao wtf. Well anyway, legion is actually pretty good. If you are not hardcore watch dogs fan, then it's wait for sale.
-
Nov 3, 2020Impressions after 10 hours of gameplay
- story is very boring
- character recruitment is by far best part of this game
- graphics with rtx on look great
- London is well re-created
- hacking is fun
- this game has more serious tone than WD2 and i count it as positive
overall it's wait for sale, unless you really like watch dogs or just wanna have fun and mess around in the city. -
Nov 3, 2020I guess console versions suck or something? or why they have so low scores?
PC version run's perfectly fine 60-80fps with any rtx card. Of course there's literally no need
to max out everything (specially rtx ultra is just big no). -
Nov 3, 2020Most people can't max out RDR 2, the why would you max out this game? Make no sense. It's literally first ever (true hd) open world with ray tracing, of course you need good pc, if you want higher settings. Missions are generally boring, but open world makes up for it imo.
Overall world desgin was better in WD1, but it's okay for the most part. Maybe they add something with dlc's or free updates. -
Nov 3, 2020
-
Nov 3, 2020Graphics - 8/10 , Story 5/10 , Open World (London) 9/10, Recruitment system 8/10
-
Nov 3, 2020куча фейковых аккаунтов, дающих низкие баллы. Жалкий. Игра достаточно солидная. Конечно, не шедевр.
-
Nov 3, 2020What crashes are people talking about? I played literally 5 minutes ago and i haven't had single crash in 10 hour gameplay. Are people doing something wrong? Drivers not uptodate? I mean of course it sucks if it crashed for someone, but giving extremely low score, instead of trying to fix the issue is just too far.
-
Nov 3, 2020Youtuber "Skillup"s review basically says it all. It's no masterpiece, but it's still fun. By no means deserves that low user score. "Skillup" was correct about last of us 2 and he is also correct about this game.
-
Nov 3, 2020
-
Nov 3, 2020City is really well detailed and graphics looks great, specially at night. Character converstations on streets seemed to be better in Watch Dogs 1, not sure what happened with that. Wait for sale or dlc's.
-
Nov 3, 2020Pretty confident that Assassin's Creed Valhalla will be million times better than this, but Legion is still fun enough game to play, until Assassin's Creed comes out in few days.
-
Nov 3, 2020it's pretty decent for what i tries to do. Clearly not for everyone. Best parts are London and character recruitment.
-
Nov 3, 2020While it's far from perfect, Ubisoft seems to be at least somewhat back on track. Last year was just awful for Ubi games, but this on is actually pretty fun. Still it could use tons of improvement, but dlc's are promising. Hopefully Assassin's Creed Valhalla will be great.
-
Nov 3, 2020It's perfectly fine open world game to have fun with. People who create fake accounts just to leave 0's are literally pathetic. I don't even count them as actual gamers. If literally only game you are going to play this year is cyberpunk then you are not actual gaming fan. You are just loser hops on bandwagons and hypetrains.
-
Nov 3, 2020Impressions so far, it's way better than second watch dogs. In last game you had one boring protagonist, here you can recruit any npc you want. This one has at least interesting dlc's. They are literally bringing back first game's main character. Thank god.
-
Nov 3, 2020
-
Nov 3, 2020It's pretty solid, better than WD2, slightly worse than WD1. I would still say wait for sale.

Story: 4 / 10
Design of London: 8 / 10
Recruitment system: 9 / 10
Hacking abilities: 9 / 10
Easter eggs / secrets : 6.5 / 10

Nov 4, 2020Game is solid, tons of funs to be had. Incredible amount of different characters. Not best of 2020, but not even close to worst. There have been so many weaker games this year.
@spike, well in 2020 majority of white males are hipsters, so finding a minority can be challenge for sure. Glad you finally found what you were looking for tho. -
Nov 4, 2020Graphics - good, Story - whatever, Hacking - good, London - good, NPC recruitment - good, Driving - sucks, but can be kinda fixed in settings, Overall - not great, not terrible.
-
Nov 4, 2020Why so low user score? This game is at least 7. How can 4 hours long game (re3remake) have bigger score doesn't even make sense. Here you have absolute freedom to do whatever you want in open world London. Not to even mention, this is fist time ever fully released HD London is in video game. GTA London doesn't count lol. I'm actually really enjoying it.
-
Nov 4, 2020When is cyberpunk coming again? 36 days? Well, i would say in the meantime Legion is pretty fun game to play. Even tho Assassin's Creed Valhalla comes in like 4 days and that's way better game than Legion.
-
Nov 4, 2020Doesn't deserve that low user score, i would like to bet tons of these 0's are fake accounts made by losers who are angry that cyberdelay 2077 moved into late december and now they let their anger out on this game. lol.
Legion is overall pretty enjoyable game. Nothing super special. -
Nov 4, 2020Graphics - 9
Story - umm like 5 maybe
London - 9
Recruitment system - 8 or 9 -
Nov 4, 2020Не всякая игра может быть шедевром, как супермарио, понятно? Это по-прежнему прекрасная игра, в которой нужно сделать массу вещей.
-
Nov 4, 2020Here's the deal, it's not revolutionary or anything, but it's not that bad either. It's just mediocre i guess. And not every game needs to be best game ever. At least it doesn't have insane bugs like fallout 76 and actually has beautiful graphics.
-
Nov 4, 2020Compared to many other 2020 game that will be over in 2 hours, WD Legion actually has content. If you like that content, that's up to you obviously, but at least here's tons of stuff to do. Character recruitment is true standout, but i have to say WD1 had better story. I'm still hopeful for dlc's tho, because they bring back Aiden. Could use performance patches.

Nov 4, 2020After 10 hours:
Positives:
Graphics, Character recruitment, London, More serious tone than WD2, Hacking, Parkour, Tons of graphics settings.
Negatives:
Not very innovative from any aspect, Story is weak, Needs performance patch.
Overall conclusion: Better than expected, because i had extremely low expectations after WD2. Better than any Ubisoft game from 2019. -
Nov 4, 2020
-
Nov 4, 2020Pretty solid game for what it tries to do. Nothing outstanding, but giving npc's deeper personality is future of open world games for sure. Also ability to recruit any npc is very cool.
Graphics are from fine to actually stunning, depending on time of day. Would very much recommend. -
Nov 4, 2020
-
Nov 4, 2020Pros : London looks beautiful, flying on drones is fun (different from usual planes in open world games), NPC recruitment, hacking mechanics are fun, You can explore all kinds of underground places with your spiderbot.
Cons: Story is hit or miss, You can't enter many buildings, could use some serious performance patches. -
Nov 4, 2020Pretty fun game with nice graphics. Nothing revolutionary, nothing bad. Performance is hit or miss, hopefully improves with patches. Ignore reviews that give 0's, these are mostly fake accounts who are angry that cyberpunk got delayed into 2025.

CD-ActionFeb 8, 2021Legion 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]
-
Jan 26, 2021This is the worst kind of sandbox, with bland, repetitious gameplay, and barely existing narrative.
-
LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 4, 2021Watch 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]
