Not a bad story about young people who, in the course of the story, are responsible for their antics at the beginning of the game (they wanted to help the city, but in the end they did not do anything good) and gradually mature. Very good graphics except for reflections on cars and buildings. The physics of the cars is still bad, but it is the best in the series (if you remember Legion even good). If you are not a GTA fanatic you will like the game. GTA fans do not perceive anything except GTA as an open-world game (in part 5 it even degraded compared to part 4).… Expand

    I love this game
    While the story in Watch Dogs 1 is better the second improves every other aspect.
    Better hacking, better Open World and more fun to be had.

    Almost a great game, the multiplayer is very fun and so are the story missions, I always skipped the cutscenes because I found the group a little too hippy and cringe, But a promising direction for the Watch Dogs franchise.

    Much better than its predecessor, but it is not without faults. The game's optimization needs attention 6/10, graphics can be better especially as we played games like days gone they have proven it can be better so 7.5/10, It has a good storyline close to current reality 9/10, playtime or longevity is good 8/10, user-friendly (trophies and gameplay ) 9/10.Total of 7.9/10

    This may be my second favourite game. It’s so fun. My favourite thing to do in this game is hacking cars, I don’t know why it’s so fun probably because i’m a maniac and i like exploding things. The story isn’t great i don’t remember a lot of things about the story, but everything else is is great.

    Watch Dogs 2 is much better than the first game. It features a bright, colorful open-world, a fun cast of characters, a solid lead in Markus, a good story and fun gameplay.

It's too bad with the more recent "Legion" that Ubisoft has abandoned story for the sake of a new gameplay feature, but oh well. Here's to hoping the fourth entry will be more like WD2, because it is by far the best in the series.… Expand

    Хорошая игра, но явно не заслуживает больше чем 7,Прошел быстро ,потому что не интересно проходить доп, миссии. Прошел сюжет, он интересный. Но под конец я устал от однообразия. Большинство миссий -это проберись туда, хакни то. Нет интересных заданий например как в гта.

    Yesss!! This game is very good and had a good parkour also the combat. The graphic is very good for ps4 games and xbox one games and the fps is kindaaaaa good I guess. The mission is kinda fun too! But you cant ride helicopter and do slow mo like in watch dog 1 they should add it back!!! (Sorry if my english is bad)

    Typical cookie cutter Ubisoft game design where it doesn't excel at anything that gets absolutely ruined by a horrendous story and some of the worst characters ever written in a video game ...

    The potential was there what with the story taking some inspiration from today's events and a bit of 1984 but damn the over the top hipster cringe was way too much with superb lines such as    Typical cookie cutter Ubisoft game design where it doesn't excel at anything that gets absolutely ruined by a horrendous story and some of the worst characters ever written in a video game ...

    I love this game. IMO its one of the most underrated games of the generation.

    I think one of the main aspects of whether or not you'll enjoy it is if you truly take advantage of all the game mechanics. If you just want to shoot everything up, this game may not be for you. But if you want to hack, use stealth and gadgets, and use the game world as your playground, this game is one of a kind.

There is plenty of content, the visual component is excellent even in 2020, the gameplay is very diverse and interesting. The plot is quite simple in general, but sometimes there were specific moments when I was a little confused about what was happening (well, maybe I'm just a little dumb).

    I think this game did exactly what it should have after the first game. The first did best at just being a fun game but it tried to take it self seriously which watch dogs 2 fixed by being more goofy. This is a big improvement over the first game although I give it the same score as the first game because at the time I played both of these games I for some reason enjoyed the first more.I think this game did exactly what it should have after the first game.

    Characters and the story is 2 dimensional. Story is poor. Gameplay has improved since the first game but the story got worse. Caharacters are so shallow that I for the first time in a long time I have skipped quite a lot of cutscenes.side stories are not interesting either. Glad it is finished.

    Despite a few flaws, Watch Dogs 2 delivers where the original game failed. The game has improved on every aspect and provides a vibrant city with lots of hacking fun. The story is dull without any special moments but the immersive open world with lots of quests will keep you entertained.

    Watch Dogs 2 brilliantly solves the main issue the first game had while providing a world full of enjoyable missions. We faced some problems with the camera, especially during the car race. We also faced some issues with connectivity and online play. In the end, Watch Dogs 2 is a game that delivers in most aspects and provides hours of enjoyable content.

    Despite the MP issues, Watch Dogs 2 hacks this series back on track with its gorgeous locales, and silly emergent fun. Marcus isn’t *quite* our cup of tea, but he sure beats the hell out of the last guy. [January 2016, p71]
