    A big improvement over the first title however it doesnt take much to do that. I did have fun playing this game and it held my interest all the way through.

    Es el mejor en ambientación de los 3, la ciudad se siente viva! Con npcs haciendo cada uno una cosa diferente, gráficos que a día de hoy 2023, han envejecido bastante bien, su historia es algo floja y las físicas de conducción son horrendas pero todo lo demás, es fenomenal!

    This game is just all out fun time. It takes itself seriously only a few times because it recognizes what it should be. Fun, mediocre, big, flashy.

    Leaving aside the comparisons with other games, WD2 is innovative, it has a lot to offer, a realistic world where nothing is private, improvable but charismatic characters (wrench) The best game in the saga, it has many details, entertaining gameplay and varied missions, an IP that can give much more and Ubisoft must know how to take care of it

    this game is bad. This is proof that as much pretty graphics you can throw at the developer (to make a gta clone) it fails to be special and express itself as an individual game.

As expected, it is half baked and unpolished with numerous bugs even thought it came out in 2016. Just goes to show how much Ubisoft themselves value this IP. Similarly to them i do not appreciate this game as well. Easy zero.… Expand

    The game's story lacks consistency in seriousness, with some parts feeling less serious. The friendly AI is unintelligent and unhelpful, detracting from the gameplay experience. The graphics suffer in certain weather conditions, appearing unimpressive. The car physics are annoying and unrealistic. Overall, the game's flaws in story, AI, graphics, and car physics hinder enjoyment.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game is perfect in every way The only problem i have with it is marcus will b pushed and not thrown when hit by a car
    There is another problem in games physics which no studio can make good physics in Their game Unless the game is based off physics
    The Combat ui is cursed a little because you can lose your pursures when you enter a small closerd area b when the cops see you go there they are just nah we ain't checking there
    Its like that in every game almost
    But overall the game is great
    I suggest y'all trying it
    The ai is exteremly good and developed and the graphics and story and the characters are also great
    The sad part is this games is dead now in 2023 i hope it comes back
    Or maybe gta 6 might be as developed as this game    … Expand

    One thing ruins the game completely. It's the police. If you like the GTA police chasing, this game is not like that. They are much more ridiculous. They just randomly generate police cars out of nowhere. If you think you are smart to drive off-road onto a hill, there will be a police car waiting for you there as well.

And it's not optional, they added a pursuit as early as the first mission, although it's a side mission, the game just switches to the mission without telling you. Even if you don't count that, the second mission is a full-blown car chase mission. How does Ubi have the cheek to force players to do car chase, especially when it's a half-baked lame clone of GTA?… Expand

    Algo que hizo muy bien esta secuela fue ir de cara y no hacer promesas estúpidas que luego no se cumplirían. Mejora en todo al original aunque la historia no sea nada del otro mundo. Muy entretenido como alternativa a GTA.

    Watch Dogs 2 is the best game compared to Watch Dogs 1 and Watch Dog Legion, which is a vast city especially with better steals.

    So worried about being woke that they forgot what FUN f-ing gameplay is. Jesus christ does Ubisoft even knwo what they are doing? Can tell in the last 6 years that they are clueless on how to make a good game. That Alcatrez m ission has to be the worst **** I've seen in my life.

The story is exciting and keeps you wanting to play but it could definitely be improved as it isn't the most interesting narrative I've ever played through and the characters are not that likeable. That being said, it is a decent story and the locations explored are also fun to visit.

    Gameplay is mainly stealth focused and whilst you can use stealth takedowns and non lethal weapons to get through the game without killing many people at all, guns are powerful enough that you can usually just go into an area all guns blazing and still complete the mission. I found overall that the funnest way to complete these stealth missions was to not enter the area at all and instead use the drone and jumper to do everything remotely and deal with the mission smoothly. You get a sense of achievement from breaching an area without being spotted as it feels like the correct way to play the game.

    In terms of the open world, you get to explore San Francisco and Silicon Valley. The weapons and hacks at your disposal make for some very funny situations as you can take control of NPCs' cars and mess about with people's phones and the traffic. The police are not very harsh and usually it is easy to escape them with a decent car but if you want a challenging police chase, you can just shoot the police and ram them with your vehicle to get them more angry and send stronger force after you. The NPCs are extremely stupid and you can barely interact with them but this just makes the game more fun in some situations.

    Overall, I would say this game is extremely enjoyable (especially the open world) but not a game that deserves to win any awards - a conclusion which really sums up a lot of Ubisoft games.    … Expand

    The game upgrades on it's tech but dropped in it's characters. The main characters feel young and unprofessional with the way they operate which pulls it down a bit for me.

    Играл в первый Watch Dogs очень понравилось, а в 2 часть не советую играть игра очень такая себе, концовка слишком простая и унылая, и финал ощущается как обычная миссия

    This game is one that I'd recommend you play. It doesn't provide anything groundbreaking in terms of story and characters however It successfully builds upon the first instalment and is sure to offer you hours of fun.

It doesn't provide anything groundbreaking in terms of story and characters however It successfully builds upon the first instalment and is sure to offer you hours of fun. The characters are likeable, the gameplay is varied, often requiring a deep level of concentration and the open world is quite charming. My only (and large) complaint about the game is it's shallow story and character building. The story is really and I mean really generic. It doesn't explore any themes and to be brutally honest is slightly engaging at best. It falls into mediocrity and comes off as an afterthought which is disappointing as a good story would have really boosted this game towards being one of Ubisoft's bests. The characters as well don't really have any evolution and sometimes the writing doesn't match what the characters are made out to be (you'll see for yourself). If the characters weren't as interesting as they are initially, this game would be in some trouble for repeating its past mistakes but fear not because these characters are better than the 1st game's. So despite my complaints, I do find this to be a good game, one worthy of your time, just not your thought. Considering it is on Game-pass currently don't miss your chance to play this game.… Expand

    Ottimo gioco con una trama simpatica ma profonda che esplora temi profondi, i personaggi sono memorabili e tutto ciò unito ad un ottimo game play e mai noioso mi ha portato a dare un 8, e a completarlo al 100% MA il gioco non è esente da difetti infatti l’IA dei nemici non è così brillante e i bug sono molti anche se parecchi non sono invalidanti nella partita.

    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]
