    Not funny at all. Some bugs and stupid AI. Very repetitive. Minigames is... just not fit in the game. Hacking is "hacking" by button. Im sorry, but this is not good game.    … Expand

    It's also wonderfully optimized in true Ubisoft tradition, any frame drop you experience is due to your PC being overwhelmed by the brilliance of Ubisoft's latest Masterpiece.

    Game of the year!

    P.S., the only reason I rated this 0/10, is because our earthly scales cannot accurately rate a divine masterpiece such as Watch_Dogs, and I daren't insult the gods by trying.    … Expand

    Cannot play because of uPlay (what an irony). When uPlay is up it wants to do a perpetual cycle of updating and when it isn't it just won't log on. Ubisoft support is terrible. Impossible to get a refund even though I haven't got the opportunity to play the game. Never going to buy another Ubisoft game until this terrible service is removed.

    На дворе 2014 год, Ubisoft уже начали катиться по наклонной, но скатились не совсем. А тут ещё новая игра, интересный сеттинг, многообещающе. Именно этот фактор заставил меня, да и не только, обратить внимание на эту игру. Просмотрев трейлеры, я решил - надо предзаказывать. Дождавшись заветной даты релиза, я весь день играл в эту игру в предвкушении большего. Оно вот-вот должно было случиться. Игра не оправдывала ожиданий. Окончательно понял я это после десяти часов игры. Кошмарная оптимизация, детали проработаны на отвали, кошмарное управление автомобилями. Графика по тем временам выглядела вполне достойно, но серость всё же давала о себе знать. Единственный плюс в этой игре - интересная история и сюжет, вот только процесс прохождения уныл и однообразен. Практически все миссии - это лазь по камерам/взломай/иди куда-то по стелсу. Именно поэтому прохождение далось очень тяжко, чем дальше, тем больше тошнило от этих миссий. Впечатлило также взаимодействие с миром на примере светофоров, подрыва канализаций и прочего. Но эффектные аварии тоже очень быстро надоели. Ну хоть вторая часть стала лучше.    … Expand

    I tried the pc version free retail from Ubisoft and i'm relieved for didn't buy it.
    - awful graphics;
    - generic missions (like mini-games);
    - doesn't have a solid story;
    - sometimes crash;

    Параша от Юбисофт. Машины управляются запредельно убого, в игре есть стандартная блевотина от юбисофт - ты идешь, проходишь 3 метра, тебя тормозят и показывают какое-нибудь дерьмо, постоянно все дерганое, играть не дают. Зашел в комнату - все, не можешь бежать. Вышел на улицу - вот тебе говнокатсцена. В итоге динамики вообще нет, ритм игры максимально рваный. Стрельба говно. Сюжета нет.Параша от Юбисофт.

Если вы КУПИЛИ вотчдогс - вас надо в биореактор скинуть вместе с компостом, чтоб метан вырабатывался. Я получил ее бесплатно на раздаче, но можно было не ставить - само собой дерьмо унылое, юбисофт же. Просто унылейшее дерьмище. ГТА, любая трехмерная часть, бесконечно интереснее. Sleeping dogs и Якудза - бесконечно интереснее. Just cause - противоположность от Вотч догс. В Джаст коз у тебя нет унылого дерьма, ты можешь развлекаться как хочешь, никто тебя не тормозит и унынием не душит. Saints Row - то же самое, бесконечно веселее и интереснее, чем вотч догс. У юбисофт есть 2 игры интересные - Сидж и Реймен Леджендс. Все остальное - дерьмо блевотное. Надеюсь эти идиоты обанкротятся и закроются. Хуже говноделов в индустрии нет.… Expand

    This is a f***ot game. Every mission is frustrating, you fail no matter what you do, controls are bad, and the cops pop out of nowhere.

    Even over 5 years of buying this game, this is the most disapointing game I've ever bought.
    The gameplay seemed inovative and fun on the trailers, but it turned out boring and repetive.

    Worst of all was the preformance. This game had AWFUL performance on ANY PC! I tried it on my decent laptop, on my high end PC (at the time) and even on the PS4! It would stagger constantly and crash every hour or so. EVEN ON PS4! How can you even do that?

    A crap game, for primium price.    … Expand

    You don't want to pay for this, if you can get it for free, go through the story, but the online content is not simply bad, it is the worst I ever met.

    Ubisoft's flagship title has a really, really repulsive protagonist. The entire storyline feels like it was cranked out of a automated story generator. On the positive side, Watch Dogs looks really good on PC, especially after modding the graphics to match the visual splendor of the early E3 demos. [Aug 2014]

    There are some strong gameplay elements in Watch Dogs, but overall it's merely an adequate open world game. [July 2014, p.46]

    Nothing could have realistically lived up to the immense level of hype that Ubisoft stirred up for this game, and while I value strong narratives and envelope-pushing technological advancements, I place just as much importance in the ability to enjoy the gameplay that's being offered to me. Watch Dogs is one of the more exciting sandbox games of the last few years, and if this is to become Ubisoft's next big franchise, I'm excited to see where they take it.
