    Ubisoft Toronto's 'Play as Anyone' system results in the publisher's most unique open-world game in years. Just don't take it too seriously.

    Watch Dogs Legion is a very good game with which you don’t get bored! The ability to recruit an infinite number of characters with different abilities is enjoyable and the universe and neat, whether it is the story or the characters. This episode, without being a revolution, separates itself from the two previous ones and offers a fun experience that we do not want to let go. A single desire: to play to recruit activists, to hack a thousand systems and to liberate London.

    Watch Dogs: Legion elevates the formula allowing to control every character in the game, a unique and complex game mechanic with many possibilities... That doesn't go well with the narrative. But still, it's a fantastic action, stealth and hacking open world game.

    Watch Dogs Legion promises a futuristic London, where you can play as everybody. Unfortunately, it has a lot of flaws that should be perfected in an already delayed game.

    The latest Watch Dogs does seem ripe for criticism, but at its core is a solid, fun title that is yet to leave the disk tray. Cruising through the London suburbs is a thoroughly enjoyable experience with a lot of replay-ability, if only to use the games camera mode to snap a selfie with a landmark. Some of the missions are also creatively designed and structured in a way that will live long in the memory and be the talking points with any friends on the fence about purchasing. The biggest downfall of Watch Dogs: Legion is the promise of something more. With no real incentive for recruitment outside characters given in missions, it remains very much a title for the generation. With a little more thought put into the mechanics and gameplay, focusing on how they could really have been revolutionised, this could have been an experience as future-proof as the world portrayed within it.

    Watch Dogs: Legion is more of the same, albeit with more technical problems. Even the most diehard of Watch Dogs fans should wait for a patch or two before jumping in.

    Watch Dogs Legion is unfortunately a boring, middling game without much creativity to speak of.

If you didn't like watch dogs 1, there's absolutely no way you're going to like this one, unless recruiting npc's is something that wins you over. I have absolutely always liked watch dogs 1, so i kinda knew what legion was going to be, unlike many people who give 0 scores, i also watched trailer and gameplay, that always helps.… Expand

It makes the gameplay dullThe story is unoriginal and the idea of changeable avatars is nice gimmick but does not work at all in my opinion. It makes the gameplay dull and empty to play without characters with a personality. And dull and empty also is a fitting describtion to the really great looking on the outside city of London but everything is just a facade. But the worst of all: WHO IN ALL THE WORLD THOUGHT IT IS A GOOD IDEA WHEN YOU PAUSE A CUTSCENE TO MAKE THE CIRCLE BUTTON THE "SKIPPING CUTSCENE" OPTION?!?! In every other game I ever played "O"means returning to the cutscene.… Expand
