    No idea about base console performance, because i have xbox series x, ps4 pro and high end pc, but on these three it runs well enough and looks stunning (at times).

    I support this because i really like this idea of open world hacking game. It just needs to be done right. There's two way it can go, they either improve this one with 1. MULTIPLAYER, 2. AIDEN PEARCE DLC STORY, 3. IMPROVE OVERALL GAME MECHANICS LIKE DRIVING. Either these or they just need to go all out with watch_dogs 4. They got London right, that's good.

What they didn't is that this game feel way packed together, EVERY OPEN WORLD GAME NEEDS AREAS TO TAKE TIME DOWN, BREATHE. It has some on if and i'm glad it does, but i would like these kinds of games have some kind of forest area, nature area, just like watch_dogs 1 did. ANYTHING OUTSIDE THE CITY, ANYTHING, PLEASE. I absolutely don't care if real London don't have nature areas, PRETEND IT DOES, IT'S A VIDEO GAME. You can do whatever you want with it. Still i'm not giving up on it just yet, i really wanna see what they do with season pass and if Aiden's story is good enough. If they this right, this might actually be pretty decent hacking/open world game that takes place in London and that's actually (at least to me) very important aspect. I like London. I love it's architecture (yeah i'm history nerd, sue me). NPC recruitment is very unique idea BUT IT NEEDS MORE, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, IT NEEDS MORE. Like i said, i'm still hopeful, would love to fly on cargo drones with Aiden Pearce and play his missions. Could be actually cool. Even tho i kinda trashed it, don't get me wrong, i still like this game. It's miles better than completely empty open world of mafia remake, i don't care if it focuses on story, if you have huge open world, do something with it. Watch_Dogs is at least doing something. And it's overall by any means more fun than Marvel's Avengers, these are not even comparable. I'm not saying these things AT ALL to trash other games, i'm just pointing out facts. My recommendation would be either wait for sale, wait for season pass or just take whatever this game has to offer right now. It's overall very promising and at times very fun.… Expand

    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.

    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

    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

It’s a darn beautiful open-world playground to have fun in. You get a lot of gameplay nothing amazing but everything ok/Good Level. It does not really introduce it’s mechanics in the best way but you need to kind of find a handful of npc’s that you really enjoy, and this might take some time. Shooting is for sure one of the weaker aspects of the Game. A Game like this would have needed the immersive rag-doll physics, but instead it’s more arcady and yeah you can shoot NPC’s a few times before they go down. But this is Common these days as every game is getting designed to have a Online Mode. I felt more Stealthy on this than AC: Valhalla. I must admit the Stealth is not bad as you have the Hacking to Support you, and yes the Takedowns are Very Cool. You have all sorts of ways to do things, use you imagination.

    All in All if you play this by using your own imagination and make your own game, then you have a whole City as your Playground. If you come for a story to blow your mind and take you by the hand from the beginning to the end, then No it’s not this Game.

    Since I enjoyed the previous chapter, I thought this game would have been an improved version of its predecessor, simple but fun and, overall, well made, even if not perfect.
    Unfortunately, in my opinion, with this new chapter, Ubisoft completely missed the target.
    Technically the game is poorly optimized and performs badly on a mid-tier pc.
    The perceived visual quality, even with RTX enabled, is surprisingly mediocre and fails to give that satisfaction that I was hoping to get from a game like this.
    Sure the reflections are amazing, but the textures and game environment seem from an older game, lacking the quality I was expecting from a title like this.
    Technical part aside, I found the story too long and monotonous.
    In the previous chapter, the adventures of Marcus and his crew managed to pull me into the game and guide me smoothly till the end of the main story, making me feel involved in the narration.
    Unfortunately, this time, the story and narration are marginal and superficial, lacking that empathy with the characters and that feeling of diving into the storytelling that even a simple but well-narrated plot can deliver.
    I don't want to be drastic, but the storytelling was so marginal that, after a few hours, I gradually lost interest in the story without even realizing it.
    From that moment, the narration became nothing more than a navigator through the missions, just telling me what to do next.
    I also found, in general, the game's quests flat and repetitive, making the whole experience even more annoying.
    As previously said, I'm very disappointed by this game, and I hope Ubisoft will learn from this failure how to make something better next time, maybe shorter, a bit simpler, but with seriously improved quality.    … Expand

Set in a near future London; players take on the personal of operatives for a hacker group known as Dedsec.

    In the aftermath of a bombing by an entity known as Zero Day in which Dedsec is blamed; London has become a police state thanks to a private security company named Albion who were installed to keep the peace.

    Players must complete various infiltration and hacking missions across the sprawling city to get the needed evidence behind the attack as well as correct various criminal injustices that arise during the course of the game.

    Since the game takes place in a very large and highly-detailed city; there are some vast distances players must travel to complete their various missions. Thankfully there are numerous cars, trucks, busses, bikes, scooters, boats, and more which can be used to navigate the city. Late in the game I became a big fan of using the Underground to move around the map and be closer to a mission objective.

    Once on mission players can hack security systems by completing puzzles or using a Spider Drone to navigate air vents to hack cameras and other systems. Hacking is such a vital part of the game that players will soon become very skilled at hacking security systems, copying digital access keys, computers, and so much more.

    One of my favorite things to do was to hack a large cargo drone and ride it to a destination. While it did move slower than other vehicle options; it did allow me to avoid many of the circular roads of London which added to the at times extended travel.

    Another bonus of using the drone was being able to pick up cargo from containers to construction explosives and use it as a bomber in various situations.

    Combat is a very big part of the game as while players can opt for stealth at times; combat is unavoidable on many of the missions. Your weapons are based on which Operative you select and they are a varied bunch. One had a pistol and a Taser while another had an Assault Rifle and a Grenade Launcher. The diversity of weapons are as varied as the operatives as players can recruit new members by assisting and performing various side missions.

    This leads to one of the more interesting aspects of the game as players can opt for a permanent death or can have their fallen operatives become unavailable for an amount of time as they sit in jail or the hospital.

    This allows players to recruit medics and Barristers to the team as having them will reduce the amount of time that a player is unavailable for use. The game is broken down into chapters and each of them allows players to complete the main story missions but still has numerous side missions and recruiting options available.

    Players can also earn money by delivering packages and other activities which can be used to purchase new clothing to enhance their look and mix things up as they play. The operatives are a great mix of genders and ethnic diversity which allows players to really experience character variety which is not often seen in games.

    While the game had some glitches at launch a recent patch for the PC greatly improved the performance of the game and made it a highly immersive and enjoyable gaming experience.

    The city is so vast and as players who know Assassin’s Creed, The Division, and Ghost Recon will know that Ubisoft are masters are creating very detailed and sprawling cities. It was great fun to go by various London landmarks in the course of my missions and floating over Parliament on a drone was a great gaming moment.

    The game also offers a nice mix of enemies as while there are many soldiers to contend with; being able to dispatch them with weapons or hand to hand is always fun as is having to avoid a huge contingent of drones and security forces who are in intense pursuit.

    The game had some sound issues as I mentioned at the launch but they were resolved with a new patch and the various voices and sounds of the city combine to make a very immersive gaming environment.

    The graphics of the game are very solid although some of the character facial animations seem a bit dated at times but in no way detract from the game.

    In the end Watch Dogs: Legion is a winning new entry in the series and I look forward to the online option of the game which is due in December.

    In technical terms, there are no questions, the graphics are nice, the optimization is good.
    In terms of plot, it's bad. The story and characters are completely uninteresting. I could not play it for a long time, I immediately lost interest in the game.

    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.

    The strongest part of the game is the story, and that is saying something because while it has an interesting concept, it falls short in many areas due to moments of poor writing and voice acting. My favorite character ended up being an AI because all of the "main characters" were extremely shallow and had no depth. The final moments of the story, which were supposed to be dramatic, were ruined by poor voice acting, repetitive gameplay (I will touch on this later), and cringy one-liners. The story was interesting enough to keep me playing the game solely to know what happened to London at the end.

    The missions are the weakest point of the game. Every mission feels like it was literally copied and pasted from the last one. Infiltrate, hack, then leave. It took me until about halfway through the game to realize this, but once I did the entire game became a grind. I wanted to finish because the story was interesting and I like to finish what I start, but I didn't enjoy any other aspects of it. I applaud Ubisoft for trying something new with the "Play As Anyone" mechanic; however, this was possibly what made the game lack so much. In order to progress, you have to recruit operatives off the street, which involves the same mundane copy and paste missions from the main story. As a result of not having a main character that interacts with others, none of the characters have any depth. I also applaud the game for giving the player plenty of non-lethal combat options. I love when games do this because not all players want to run around the city as a homicidal madman.

    The technological aspects of the game are as bad as one can expect from a Ubisoft title. Bad optimization made the game literally unplayable at launch. When driving, even on an RTX 2080 Super, I was consistently getting 30 FPS or below. Luckily the game's optimization went from atrocious to bad with updates. Now the game is at least playable, but I don't get the performance I would expect from an RTX 3090 (I have upgraded my 2080 Super). I played with ray tracing off for the majority of the game because DX11 gave me better performance, and the benefits from ray tracing were entirely situational in this game. Sometimes the reflections looked great, other times it made the roads look like a mirror with a bright light reflecting up at you. Plus DLSS made all of the reflections fuzzy, and DLSS is needed to play with RT on. Water always looked horrible with RT on.

    The game took me around 25 hours to complete and has very little replayability due to the linear story. So this means that I essentially paid $2.40/hr for a mediocre experience.

    Conclusion: Don't buy this game for $60. Wait a year until there's more content, optimizations, and then wait until it's on sale for $20.    … Expand

    Very few of the ordinary citizens in London have any noticeable qualities, and they're all voiced by the same 10 or so voice actors, making the world seem much smaller and dull than you'd imagine it to be. And because there are so many different characters, interactions between your team and characters in the story are blatantly dull and generic. There's no one that you grow an emotional connection to, and there's no one that's worth rooting for, whether it's DedSec or not. There are practically no characters who actually have a decent backstory or interesting personality without being killed at the beginning of the game or getting almost no screen time whatsoever.

    The gameplay is almost nothing new besides from a few new additional gadgets. But it's the same premise - kill people, hack stuff, get in, and complete the objective. After playing for about 5-10 hours, the gameplay becomes repetitive and redundant, and it was a struggle for me to keep coming back to the game and force myself finish the campaign. There's almost no interesting story or creativity, probably due to the fact that Ubisoft was desperate to milk out one last game for the series, and it shows.    … Expand

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

    - London looks incredibly realistic, to the point that it sometimes trips you out because your brain is convinced that it's witnessing real-life footage. The environmental graphics are gorgeous - but make sure to play with the highest graphics settings and ray-tracing on, or the experience won't be the same.
    - The general atmosphere of the world is spectacular, and the general London feel is captured perfectly. If you have ever lived in London, the game will unconditionally make you feel nostalgic. Everything - down to small details like advertisement style - has been thought out to make you feel like you are living in the same city that, 15 years ago, was the London that we read in the news about today.
    - The recruitment mechanic is fantastic and works just like advertised. Every NPC in the game (apart from a dozen story-specific characters) is recruitable, and actually feels like a distinct individual with their own set of strengths and weaknesses, personality, and a complex life behind them. Every NPC has a detailed biography and everyday schedule, and which NPC you recruit has noticeable effects on the gameplay: the same mission can be an exercise in stealth, a full-blown firefight, a sniper-like quest, or even a drone war depending on which character you decide to complete it with. This, in conjunction with the game's general sandbox mechanic which makes the open world malleable and dynamic, provides numerous opportunities for you to express your creativity and play the game like you want to play it.
    - Some of the chapters (notably the Skye Larsen and Dedsec chapters) were captivating and featured genuinely thrilling storytelling.
    Negatives:
    - The character models, as well as their movement, animations, facial expressions, and lip-syncing are seriously outdated. It can be pretty weird seeing these comically poor characters interact with such an advanced and almost photorealistic environment.
    - The voice acting is some of the worst that I have ever seen. For some characters, I feel like a random person on the street would've done a better job. Besides, the accents of the characters match neither the characters' personalities nor, even more noticeably, the general London population. For some reason, Ubisoft seem that London is inhabited almost exclusively by native Patwah or Polish speakers, which is obviously wildly inaccurate; on the other hand, the massively popular MLE dialect is barely featured at all. As a consequence of all of these factors, immersion - and with it the otherwise wonderfully executed illusion of being in futuristic London - takes a massive hit.
    - The AI is bad. Albion staff won't shoot at you even after you have literally almost killed them; they won't spot you even if you are in their plain sight; and the less said about vehicle AI - which would be underwhelming even in year 2000 - the better.
    - Melee combat is very primitive, although most other combat mechanics are pretty good.
    - Other than a few thrilling moments, the general storyline is basic, and almost all missions follow the exact same format: break into building - kill a few guards - retrieve artefact - possibly survive ambush - escape to safety. The game starts to feel repetitive after a few such missions - especially given that completing a mission is a prerequisite for every new recruitment, which is honestly a bit of a nuisance.
    - I can't help but feel that much, much more could have been made of the amazing open world that Ubisoft has built and the recruitment system available at Ubisoft's disposal. The characters could be grouped into different classes, with more powerful classes having more demanding recruitment criteria; the missions could be designed to encourage us to interact with the game-world more - for example, some missions could require us to recruit a particular type of character, say a cryptocurrency analyst, so we would be encouraged to recognise that cryptocurrency analysts usually work in the types of skyscraper found in the City, and go look for them there; hell, they could even go crazy and establish a relationship system, whereby relationship points would be gained by engaging in the appropriate activities with them (e.g. taking them to some cafe in the city or engaging in a brawl) based on their profile. Unfortunately, none of that has been done, and the best recruitment strategy as of right now is simply to find the character that you want to recruit in a place you'd expect them to be and recruit them. Only a few types of character are actually worthy of being recruited, with the rest being completely useless, and the recruitment itself is monotone and repetitive. Additionally, not much has been made of the highly interactive open world, and there is a lot of untapped potential.

    All in all, Watch Dogs Legion is definitely worth trying out, and it's a fun and immersive experience. However, it's certainly got its flaws, and it could have easily been just so much better.    … Expand

    It's nothing special, but i enjoyed it way more than 2019 Ubisoft games. This idea that some people think it's okay to sht on every new game without even buying it is just bs. Watching some clips from youtube doesn't count. If you haven't played this game at least 5 hours, your review is absolutely meaningless.

    This game does something none other does, it allows the NPC to be smarter than I've seen before. Interactions with them in one area will have consequences with their spouses and family in another. Also, the world looks incredible! It's super realistic. No wonder it barely runs properly, it's next gen. So much stuff packed into this map, decals and dirt and trash. It feels lived in.

    I have strong mixed feelings about this game. First off, it's all there, npc recruitment, London in all it's glory, everything that was in trailers, everything they promised, it's all there.
    Now, let describe this open world London and stuff i like about it and stuff i don't like at all.

    Now, let describe this open world London and stuff i like about it and stuff i don't like at all.
    This game misses main character, i'm sorry to say that, but it does. I can't wait to see if anything improves when they release season pass with Aiden, but it must. I would absolutely love to free roam with Aiden in that city. I guess what i want is actual character focused story. Right now it almost feels like it's work in progress and they should have released Aiden day 1 as post-story content. Like if you finish main story, then you can play with Aiden basically, well they didn't do that and i can live with that, i just hope season pass delivers, i really do. And why am i so optimistic? Because at the same time, there's so much there. This city really looks beautiful, for example you can go on cargo drone and fly on top of almost any building (that isn't too high) and chill around there. Scenery is BEAUTIFUL. You can free roam around on these rooftops, explore them etc. But then i have some criticism against open world design choices, for example i was free roaming and i found this old train in middle of nowhere, Would have been so cool to go inside it and explore it, but you can't because it has no doors. It's not the end of the world, but little things like that could have been so much deeper. You can drive inside trams in WD1 and you can't even go inside old train? Just saying. But overall it's not trash, it's just not. It' might not be anyone's cup of tea and that's completely fine, giving it just zero is pathetic at best. I'll just be honest, driving sucks with mouse and keyboard, it actually felt better in WD1 and they need to fix this, i'm serious. Overall it has tons of potential, underground areas is nice idea as well. There's so much there and there's stuff that i can forgive, like i don't NEED to go inside old trains, it would be just cool, that's all i'm saying. Overall again, it's not trash, it's just not. It just need improvement and for the love of god it needs that season pass more than ever.    … Expand

Moreover, every person you recruit in the game is just nonsense because they did just because of marketing purposes. Ubisoft, please stop doing games if you are just trying to gain profit from it.

    La grande ville de Londres a l'air incroyable dans le jeu et les missions. Super contenu que je n'ai pas le temps de passer et de parcourir la ville. Le jeu et les missions secondaires pour changer sont cool dans cette nouvelle version de Londres.

    Very repetitive and generic. While some of the mechanics are interesting it's easy to loose interest in the game due to a watered narrative.

    Once again, Ubisoft delivering something that looked ten times better in the trailers than on the release.

I've seen other reviews say that the "recruit anyone" thing sounds good on paper, but I think it was a bad idea ever at the drawing board. Hands up who has ever been interested in playing as Johnny NPC in any other title? A lack of a main character makes it very difficult to get emotionally invested in the story. All these cliched schmucks are just paper cutouts.

    More repetitive and boring gameplay, and a driving mechanic that somehow manages to be worse than the previous two games. I know, I didn't think that was possible either, but they somehow managed to pull it off. Not a fan of the push towards non-lethal methods either, which continues from WD2. Just let me air people out with an assault rifle, I have zero interest in being a soft cuddly goody two-shoes.

    *WOEFUL* PC optimization. I should not be having to turn settings down on an i9 with an RTX 3090 in an attempt to maintain 60FPS @ 4K.

    Shockingly poor voice acting and direction; we're talking Oblivion-level voice "skills" here. Facial animations are plasticy and unrealistic too. I guess they must have been taking lessons from early 2000s Bethesda.

    On the plus side, the recreation of London is attractive and interesting, even if I do wish it included more areas out to the east. In the end I ditched the story and gameplay itself and just went for a wander around some old haunts. Much more fun.

    Game mechanics are cool, you can sneak, you can trap, you can go melee combat or John Wick style. Stil have that "connect the dot" events for hacking things that kinda sucks.
    Overall, though you have a few dozen of bugs (no deal breakers IMO) and some unpolish gameplay, I believe the experience is pretty cool. But try before you buy it, since the absence of a designated hero and lack of "cinematic feel" can hinder some people. This is a watch dog game, not a GTA V.    … Expand

    The old Watch Dogs games in a new shell.

    This game is bad, I gave it a lot of chances played about 10h but I couldn't continue. The game mechanics on hacking are the same as the old games nothing new. Go hack a terminal, flip some pipes, go with an RC car and hack things and that's all.

    The good: London is cool. Walking around is by far the most enjoyable activity in the game.

    The bad: Very barebones. All the missions are very booring and repetitive and come down to go the the red zone and either kill everyone or try to sneak past and click on the button, wait a few seconds and get out. Very few and uninspired side activities like parcel delivery that give no rewards.    The good: London is cool. Walking around is by far the most enjoyable activity in the game.

Reality is more the contrary of that. it implements new mechanics, a lot of new characters but, I have some points I consider relevant when buying a new game from a franchise.

    TL;DR: it's an interesting approach, but it's Ubisoft: Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V while changing the map, the story, new characters and adding some new mechanics. But it feels like the same. They didn't improved the graphics quality, the driving system is terrible, some good mechanics from the others games disappeared.

    1. Map & Ambient: I don't know if London was the best choice, but the ambient is always dark, rainy, and when it's sunny it feels odd, like a yellowish ambient. Night is more vibrant, so it's not that bad. However, I think, Future London is well executed and sometimes it's awesome to see all the details on every corner of the map.

    2. Driving: it feels like driving in GTA Vice City (and that could be offensive haha). They didn't upgrade the driving mechanic for this game and personally it feels worse than Watch Dogs 2. Also, the cars are too slow. I think, that was a decision based on the size of the map, but even with the fastest cars, it feels like 30mph.

    3. Graphics: what a disappointment! With a high-end PC and a good ultrawide gamer monitor, in some scenarios it feels like a game from 2012 or something. I think the lightning system is not good. With HDR and without it, after adjusting everything, the colors, the light, the shades and the characters seems to be from another decade. Games like Farcry 5 or even WD2 have a better graphic system. Sometimes GTA V feels more recent that WDL.

    4. Missions: a really interesting story, but more of the same mechanics. Enter a building and hack a computer, hack a server, steal something... It has new things, but it lacks of innovative things to do.

    5. Recruit characters: I find this was a really good step on the franchise. It's really funny to enter the prohibited buildings with a character that is an employee of that company. However, the missions to recruit are too repetitive.

    6. Characters: I love how every character has a life in the game. On the bad side, sometimes the voices doesn't represent the character.

    6.1. NPC's: How it's possible that in 2020 the NPC's get stuck in a wall while walking? Also, the police/chases are a little bit buggy. For example, I entered a forbidden building and the guards saw me and started to walk away running. Another: I was being chased by the police and I hid on a wall while they were looking at me, and that was it, I lost the police. Disclaimer: Probably they are gonna fix that behavior, but in the meantime I'll leave this here.

    7. Interface, Gameplay & Controls: The interface is well designed but they changed too much the controls and the mechanics of them. After more than a month playing, some things on the gameplay feels awkward. Now our character doesn't have a cellphone, so in order to, for example, take a picture, you need to hold X and then press 9 and then the camera will show up that's not intuitive. It feels awkward to do that. A cellphone was a better idea, maybe with an holographic screen to be more futuristic.

    8. Price: I don't know why I payed too much for this game. This game is overpriced if it's sold as part of WD franchise. If this was sold as a new franchise, maybe the price would be correct.

    Things to consider before buying.
    1. If your are new to the franchise it will be worth it.
    2. If you had played WD1 and WD2 I will consider buying the game on sale.    … Expand

    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]

    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]
