    Is this game a 9 like Witcher 3, Bloodbourne, God of War or RE2? No.
    Does this game have a good story? Hardly any.

    Does this game have fantastic graphics? They are ok.
    Does it offer exciting multilayer? No. Will it? Maybe.
    Will this game make you want to play it for hours and hours? And then comeback after you beat it? Most likely not.

    So what does it offer? A game released during a pandemic, that feels like it was built in the middle of a pandemic. Boring, Slow, Repetitive, Wonky, the list goes on. Its sounds promising with the whole recruit anyone bit. But, its not as great as it sounds. I'd create my own operatives.

    IMO, Patches may be able to fix a couple issues and bring it to a 6.

    It's bizarre that Cyberpunk 2077 came in for such a beating when this game is just as bad if not worse.
    Everything about this game screams "UNFINISHED". It really needed another 6-12 months in development instead of being rushed out to make a quick cash grab. Instead, it was rushed out and none of the issues have been addressed 2 months on.

    You've got the missing online mode, the terrible contrast/brightness settings in HDR (that can't really be fixed), the missing character animations (trying leave a moving vehicle for example), the terrible voice acting (with oddly misplaced swearing), NPCs stuck in walking animation while facing walls, combatant AI is completely ineffective, the stuttering frame rate (on PS4 Pro) the random crashes, the half-assed story, the PS2-era character models... and this was apparent within the first 30 minutes of gameplay. Loading times are long, and occur in odd places... like where the screen fades to black for 5 seconds in between each tutorial section, even though there's no change of scenery or characters.

    The facsimile of London is ok, although a shame they had to cut so many corners... streets... buildings... etc. I would have preferred they cover a smaller area at 1:1 scale. If you're not as familiar with London as I am, you'll probably be fooled.

    The character design is bizarre... potato-faced mannequins animated like marionettes. Some of the face designs are hilarious and don't matched the voices. There's not even an attempt at lip sync when they speak.

    But you'll soon tire of the mini-London sandbox... because there's no real story, no character development, no incentive to carry on. Just a string of identical missions. It's not even up to the standard of other Ubisoft open-world games like Far Cry 5 or Assassin's Creed.

    Yeah yeah... COVID-19... I get it. But why release something half-assed when another 6-12 months polishing could have delivered something of quality?

    As a Watch Dogs series fan I was looking forward to this game, and it disappointed me, I expected much more from it, it seemed like a downgraded version of Watch Dogs 2.. Actually it seems more like a different game; most of the hacks are gone like calling cops on someone, blackout, etc.

    Furthermore, the UI changed and it’s awful, they removed “car-on-demand”, the uber-like app and more... They even removed the MP3 player! Now to listen to music/podcasts (which are decent to say the least), you’ve got to pause the game.

    In regards to the story, it’s dull, you don’t really do anything interesting and the tasks are extremely repetitive, you go to a certain place, you “hack” something (L1+X or triangle, depending on the hack) and wait for a bar to go to 100%. I found it extremely boring.

    Now, I personally enjoyed the map design, London was correctly recreated and the atmosphere was great. However, there were no interiors despite the DedSec HQ and the city didn’t feel alive despite of the new “play as anyone” feature — I’ll get to that later. The AI was worse than in the previous games, it’s bluntly ridiculous considering that it’s a AAA game. And the graphics were fine I guess, slightly better than the other game.

    The game is pretty buggy, but it isn’t unplayable, it delivers what they want to deliver I guess, which isn’t that good. The PS4 optimization however, is really bad, the game crashed countless times.

    The “play as anyone“ feature is not that interesting to be honest, voice acting isn’t good, only few “skills” are useful or remotely interesting, characters don’t have any backstory or anything appealing as well.

    You might think that a 4/10 is high for what I said, but the game isn’t unplayable or anything like that, you can play it but it’s not enjoyable imo, it seemed like a chore. Not worthy of the price I paid, you might like it if there’s a really good sale for it.

    Honestly, I was disappointed but unsurprised by the lack of polish and depth present in this game. While the systems are somewhat interesting to interact with in terms of character recruitment, I felt that this interest quickly fades into resentment. What’s good:
    - Dense open world with a LOT of characters roaming its streets
    - All gadgets and weapons feel fun to use (personal fav being the cloak)
    - Story itself is at least serviceable

    What’s meh:
    - Driving is fine. Not good, but functions well enough to move around the world at a speed greater than walking
    - Currency system and customization is okay, but honestly felt lacking in options and true customization
    - Enemy’s have enough brains to pose “some” resistance, but by no means feel smart

    What’s bad:
    - Recruitable characters feel shallow, poorly acted/generated, and poorly planned. A nemesis system might have worked better, with a singular core character and lots of disposable recruits to bring in. I never felt much of an attachment to my characters, and didn’t care when I lost them as I could just get more.
    - Hacking feels worse than in previous games, with some abilities locked to certain characters. There aren’t any blackout or gang-call type abilities that would have wowed me.
    - Melee, as the majority of combat you see, isn’t very fun. It can feel frustrating or way too easy, but never a perfect balance. I just ended up dodge-punching everything for as long as I could.
    - Optimization, even on PS4 isn’t great. Long load times and a few crashes have soured my experience during my play through.
    - Little to do; Liberating the map as quickly as possible might make the game much less fun for you. Doing so clears much of the Albion presence, reducing the amount of conflict you are in. Doing so is also pretty easy, taking only a few objectives per district in order to reach Defiant status.

    All in all, I wasn’t particularly thrilled by my experience with Legion. It clearly wanted to do something ambitious with its “play anyone” mechanics. However, I believe that it should have either a.) had a single, well-written protagonist with a cast of characters to match, and then put in some sort of nemesis system, or b.) had a customizable first character to function as leader to the others. Slightly below the standard set by Ubisoft in previous titles, and well below what is expected from AAA games.

Markus was a cool character you actually cared about, with a ragtag group of Dedsec members. San Francisco was also more interesting and pretty than London, at least in the games themselves. I just can't describe my disappointment enough with this game. I hope it doesn't end the series, because I want another experience like Watch Dogs 2. Expand

    Literally the only thing that could be innovating is the ability to play as any character and even that is rubbish. Everyone in this world is ugly and idiotic, could not find a single character I was invested in and the whole system is just shallow RNG tricks.
    The worst and most unforgivable thing about the game is its creator stubbornness in bring a 60fps mode to next gen consoles. Apparently it got ray tracing and runs in 4K, how hard would it have been to lower the resolution to 1440p and remove ray tracing for a Smooth experience. Once the new machine are out I wont buy a single game that is running a 30FPS. They dont have the CPU to blame anymore and consumers should expect better.

    A Jogabilidade é boa (apesar de reciclada), e o gráficos são ótimos! Mas a falta de um protagonista meio que mexe muito com o jogo, pois os personagens não tem personalidade, como o design dos personagens é horrível e vários tem vozes semelhantes, e a história foi bem clichê e não é tão interessante.

Character models have stiff, copy/paste animations from previous WD games, awful lip syncing and no real variation in voices other than a slight modulation that makes the dialogue even more cringe-worthy than it already is at times. There's no in-game phone with built-in apps to try out or even a media player so you can listen to songs when you're on foot so at times, the game feels empty in terms of soundtracks other than what's available on the car radio. The game just isn't really innovative in any way other than being able to recruit anyone walking around London. But there's really no incentive in having multiple recruits other than using certain perks to complete missions quicker. All in all, it's a half decent game but it needs a LOT of work. The only thing I'm looking forward to when it comes to the game now is the DLC with Aiden, Wrench and the other new characters.

Even met an irishman with a cockney accent. The gimmick or recruiting multiple characters is just that. you DO NOT need to switch to someone with the right skill set at all ever. Want a flying cargo drone then get the agent with right skill? Nah just hack one and ride it. Can do whole game with one character. And over-reliance on spider bot bugs the **** out of me. Expand

    PLEASE...DO NOT BUY THIS GAME. I let my excitment get the best of me and I will be completely honest about this game. The A.I SUCKS. The Police just stand around most of the time, they dont care about anyone else but your actions!! Theres no cops vs gang warfare, the A.I has the same boring **** animations and the recruitment system was only used to mask the HUGE amount of laziness in this game.

You have NO proper player, NO proper storytelling, NO clear paths for the story to develop and obviously NO character development. The whole single player is a joke. It really is. I mean, it is just boring and you are not at all invested in playing. Why? Who cares. Your character is a transparent 'thing". It really is just a thing. You will play a bunch and realise, why am I doing this. There is no real interest behind my characters. Why are they? Who are they? Who cares if they live or die? Why do they talk as if this is an SNL skit with brits? Drop this game altogether. Don't bother. The only way to play it is by paying a ton of money to "unlock" as playable characters the old ones (i.e. Aiden) and then try to play it with recognisable characters. You will pay a lot. To make this game borderline playable. Just play the two previous games again. Trust me on this one. Expand

    Crashes and a boring, lifeless, soul crushing city make up this newest entry into the Watch Dogs franchise, and unfortunately, not be design. If you can make it far enough past the crashes to delve into London itself you will find a lifeless city full of people, that according to the subtitles are talking but can't be heard.

    I was hopeful for the game, but I shouldn't have been. The game itself is basic with the hacking game play, there was no change or improvements. The game over all lack substances just like WD2, their are so many missed opportunity for the game to have grown and improved on but they stayed with the bear minimum. Its sad really because it gives me no hope for the future releases.

    Overall gameplay feels raw. Characters looks raw. No empathy to anyone. Dialogs are raw. Storyline just horrible, predictable, and boring.

    WD3 fully deserves its low score.

    Indeed, I do not understand how small studios of 20-30 people makes more interesting games than the products of Ubisoft. Maybe because they love their games?

    3. The voice acting is horrible. The accents sound like a very poor rendition of a dated stereotype. It’s very disturbing to hear a high pitched cockney accent coming out of a muscle bound African person. 4. Ubisoft have shoehorned in Racial and Gender politics into the game so much that it is rammed down your throat. I don’t think the developers spent any time in London to research the demographics. This detracts from the overall story. 5. Fight mechanics are extremely limited and create a very boring element. 6. Exorbitant prices for cosmetics in the store. Positives. 1. Driving mechanics are great and a lot of fun. 2. The story is rather engaging and keeps you plodding forward. 3. Plenty of elements to engage with in the environment. All and all it is a wholly underwhelming game that is not worth the AAA price tag.

    Writing is pretty unimaginative and discussions feel bad
    Driving is absolutely awful, no weight behind cars and seems to be heavy driving assists

    Seems like the game has just been made for a generalised market, rather than fans of the ongoing series.
    Not impressed by this game, and probably wont buy any more of the series.

    More to note, there's stupid micropurchases, not much of a difference between the basic version of the game and the extra-editions, except for some overpowered characters (making it pay to win when online comes out) and some masks

    A bad game due to one very terrible gameplay decision

    A bad game due to one very terrible gameplay decision

    I loved Watch Dogs 2 and had high hopes for Legion. With Legion they proposed a very interesting game concept that they utterly destroyed through the absolutely worst implementation of it.

    The entire point of Watch Dog Legion is players can recruit and play any character, yet the developers lack of foresight and poor implementation destroys that concept, and it could have been easily fixed with one simple change...

    Simply making 80% of the NPCs have FOUR traits that were COMPLETELY RANDOM. Along with that, a chance for a random vehicle or weapon and then a very small percentage chance of getting some premium traits. That's all, NPCs that have disguises or class specific item like a construction drone, would keep those BUT then also have two or three random traits from the ENTIRE POOL OF TRAITS.

    _

    The developers choice in this poor implementation renders the entire concept next to useless, it gives players absolutely no reason or desire to recruit and play any of the other characters. You're better off using any premiums you may have, or sticking with the first one you get with decent traits.

    The trait options giving to players to recruits are, faction NPCs like medics or construction workers all having the SAME TRAITS, or common NPCs mostly having ONE maybe two USELESS TRAITS, like a motorcycle and a wrench, or buys clothes better... ok that's a team perk... but why would you ever want to PLAY that character in the field over someone that can sneak or deal more damage or take less damage, along with having another trait or two.

    Yes, give recruits the buy clothes cheaper trait BUT also add another two traits to make them desirable as a playable operative... the current implementation simply doesn't make sense.

    A further slap in the face, is they'll have characters with one useless traits like a stun gun and then a negative trait like farts loudly, can't run, or dies randomly... and while negative traits may have been fun if each character had four traits so they were three other good ones to make it challenging, it's currently just ridiculous.

    A further problem is for a game that Topps playing every character there's very little customization... they completely fail by making everyone very similar... all of the clothing options are cookie cutter. There's no flip-flops or sandals (or any open toe shoes), no jean shorts, or swimwear, short shorts, or regular short variety like khakis, no yoga pants or stockings... but there's a ridiculous amount of business clothes... like that's what hackers wear.

    There's just very little variety, every store has the same few items in different colors, it's like the developers have never seen clothes in their life before... they could have simply gone online and looked up different styles of clothing.

    Even the mask are limited which is a big part of the game. Again they have to slap players in the face by adding some interesting masks like fox and wolf... but they're only available for specific characters with the terrible traits... and you're not allowed to put on the mask anytime only in a dangerous situation, like pulling out your gun so now you're guaranteed to be attacked because you simply want to wear your mask. completely awful implementation.

    The last thing I'll note is they also didn't make a very compelling story. I understand they had an 'anyone can be the hero' setup, but what they could have done was similar to Watch Dogs 2 have your chosen NPC interacting and perhaps even doing missions with a few predefined Dedsec operatives, like the games team to start with and just do them all away. they could have added multiple bases around the world with different operatives there that you could talk with and interact and push the story forward and make it feel more immersive than these nameless NPCs repeating the same tired lines... gassed! and banging! it's excruciating.

    _

    In closing, the game seems like such a failed attempt at something that should have been extremely good, all they needed to do was randomized the traits for recruits and give each recruit option a bunch of them, it would have given players the opportunity to search for their perfect matching set of traits daylight. watchdog Legion is completely down the toilet but perhaps they'll learn if there's a fourth.

    The gameplay is average, nothing to write home about. Go to this marker on the map, do this one activity. Rinse, repeat. And like every Ubisoft open world games that come before, the city feels dead. There's nothing to do in it.

    This game would get a 4/10 for being a mediocre pile of trash, but they have once again found a way to cram microtransactions into the game. So yay for corporate greed! Anyone who enjoys this game would likely enjoy watching paint dry while bending over for greedy publishers.

    Online is a buggy mess and the player base is so few that you often reencounter familiar strangers. Most of the hardcore players have stopped playing and the Online player base is now just mostly made up of newcomers. Matchmaking is a pain, where you have to wait for other players to complete up to the same mission you're on, and unless you've reset your mission progress to the beginning, it's now very rare you'll be matched.

    I did enjoy some of the 'you can play as anyone' system but it could do with a major boost in quality. Bloodline was good and probably the only good I got from the game. I had a 1-2 year hiatus from Ubisoft games, and they published almost Cyberpunk 2077 tier of buggy games but don't quite fix them like that game. I don't think I'm going to recover from this Buggysoft experience anytime soon.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Terrible. Between the fact that they keep trying to make hero GTA and now limit your gun use, to the fact that they copied GTAs police spawning system making it nearly impossible to get away from police after 3 levels. To the lack luster story that pushes woke agendas at you none stop. The game took everything that was good with the last games and scrapped them for a cheesy "Im the hero narrative."add onto the fact that you cant even be "the hero" because you are just a random set of unfun generic "citizens" who half the time make zero sense as to why they joined. HOW THE HELL does every single living soul in london know how to hack government facilities, and have the tools to stop the oppression at any time but decide to sit back and let it happen. The story makes no sense and the plot is a generic as they come. If London had not looked so good this game would have been hot garbage. Bad game design, bad story premise and hook, bad system implementation. Overall just a bad game. DO NOT BUY. Expand

    Worst game of the series , I made the mistake of buying it pre-launch , managed to get it 10-15 EU cheaper but the game is still one on my worst purchases this year. It cannot be compared to WD1 let alone WD2 which was the peak of the series in terms of gameplay , character development , graphics , driving and everything else.

    This game is utter repetitve trash and oh my don't even try

    This game is utter repetitve trash and oh my don't even try to drive cars in this game it's by far the worst experience imaginable for a 2020 game.

    The "play" as everyone thing is just a gimmick and London is souless nevermind the graphics.

    Stay away for this one , unless you can play it for free on a rainy day just avoid it.

    Oh look! Another reskin! What a surprise from Bugisoft.
    Still the same game in a different city with the same garbage driving.
    And to make things worse, this time there is no main character which makes the story generic as hell. And no 60fps mode as well.
    Wait for a discount.

    If you're looking for a good story game this is not for you
    if you're looking for a fantastic gameplay this is not for you
    if you're looking for graphics and immersion, still this game is not the best out there.

    I feel like Ubisoft has run out of ideas and they just force themselves to make a game every now and then to stay consistent.

    This game is so boring I made a metacritic account just for that ! in 20 years of gaming i never saw a game so close to be good and beeing so bad !

    FIRST : The Ia is SO dumb and nothing is made to improve it the stealth is so stupid i play in the hardest difficulty (ironman) - permadeath and i never lost any character ? - The turets and the drones are basicaly useless - The car
    This game is so boring I made a metacritic account just for that ! in 20 years of gaming i never saw a game so close to be good and beeing so bad !

    FIRST : The Ia is SO dumb and nothing is made to improve it the stealth is so stupid i play in the hardest difficulty (ironman) - permadeath and i never lost any character ?

    - The turets and the drones are basicaly useless

    - The car driving is like driving bricks even with the "option to configure it"

    - No counterpart using a spider or a drone to finish 99% of the game

    - Teleporting everywhere made it so unimersive the metro system is useless

    - No real interest to play the 9 millions possiblity sold by the gamedevs just buy a drone and that's basicaly the only usefull skill

    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Some ideas to make it better in case a game dev lose him self

    - DIsable teleporting in hard mode
    - Make all the city os drones scan the sector when a crime is comited by the player
    - Make some character can't use some or some tech because they're using others ( like some have no right to take a car or metro or use drone if they have the spider ( not to an rpg but at lease make some builds )
    - Give energy to drones / spider to make it more a fight against the timer
    - Give a timer to a building camera intrusion forcing the player who want to play this game style at least change character
    - make road barage turets agro from more far ( in general )
    - Give the ability to some security drone to scan if the disguised character is allowed to be here
    - Make invisibility only working when you don't move
    - Make the camera disable after a failed intrusion
    - Make the player be able to keep an uniform for all the dead sec char if you want ( everytime you switch character you see your dead sec members with stupid fluo clothes in the game )
    - Make characters permanently reasearched whats the point having XXXXX possiblity to many identity if they're never reasearched if they fail a mission OMG Ubisoft you have money now do nice games

    *- I hope someday a law will be created to not allow a studio/publisher de release more than one game in 5 years if they have more than 1Millions sold copy !

    AND I really hope the source code who have been stolen will be used to make mods for players who buyed it ! because actually your work is **** ! PS godamn stop the stupid activitys like jungling with football ... for god sake fifa is made for this do what you said before going on stupid and useless activity's like this

    FROM A REALLY ANGRY PLAYER ! because this game has bees sold for more ambition than what it's actually is.

    In 41 years of being a gamer, I have never played a game that is this painfully boring. At least with the awful games I have played, I was busy laughing at how bad the games were. There was not a single second in this boring pile of garbage where I was entertained. The missions are extremely boring and repetitive and nothing feels rewarding. The gameplay is garbage.

There was not a single second in this boring pile of garbage where I was entertained. The missions are extremely boring and repetitive and nothing feels rewarding. The gameplay is garbage.

    The physics are laughable. The driving mechanics are pathetic, the vehicles don't even have any physics. The car customization is poor and limited. All you can change is few colors and skins. I can't even change the wheels. The graphics has those same atrocious lighting effects every Ubisoft game has, everything looks like it's covered in cake frosting. The story is trash and the voice acting is lazy. There is nothing to do in the open world. All you can do is drive around and play stupid darts. There are too many bugs and glitches.

    The developers rushed the game, because the multiplayer isn't even available yet in this unpolished poor excuse of a game. The past Watch Dogs games had invasion at launch and the developers were too cheap and lazy to give it out at launch this time. The developers heavily advertised the "you can play as anyone" thing, which is nothing more than a gimmick that gets old fast. How about they spend time actually making a high quality game, instead of coming up with gimmicks. I don't recommend this trash game at all.

    I always purchase ubisoft games with really low expectations and when it goes on sale, but this game managed to be worse than what I expected. The characters you can recruit are all uninteresting, irrelevant, so you have no motivation to work on recruiting more as it feels so little rewarding.

The missions are ALL the same, at least until 5 hrs of play, go to building, navigate through cameras, sneak yourself till you press a button. Zero use of creativity, always the same.
    The story feels very shallow and boring (but that again, any Ubisoft game is like that so i bought expecting so), the city is beautiful and immense, but I did not feel like exploring it, it didnt feel alive , not rewarding to do any exploration. The controls felt very clunky, and the UI to access maps and other things in the game were horrible, no shortcuts to check the map for example, you need to open the menu and select map. To target an enemy with your gun, there is no targeting support, so you struggle to point a little dot (like in GTA) at your enemies....I tried very hard to find a single positive aspect in this game but i just couldnt.

    Just another Ubisoft. **** again. But this was was really bad.

    Watchdogs 2 was a big improvement from the first. However, Legion was a big step back.

    Я думал, что после провала Breakpoint Юбисофт уберут одну из главных проблем своих игр - донатный магазин. Но нет. Покупай валюту, оперативников, бустеры. И это при вышедшем Ghost of Tsushima, где весь контент выбивается, вы не поверите, только играя в игру без какого-либо доната и обесценивания достижений игрока. Или другой пример Genshin Impact. Я в неё вообще могу бесплатно играть. ИЯ думал, что после провала Breakpoint Юбисофт уберут одну из главных проблем своих игр - донатный магазин. Но нет. Покупай валюту, оперативников, бустеры.

    Watch Dogs: Legion is far from perfect. It tries to tell a story about resisting oppression via the power of the people, but the concept of making any character in the world a viable choice means that the experience ends up being too broad and vague. I was able to spice things up by bringing my own roleplay to characters and used items that weren’t necessary, but this was my way of compensating for the ways in which Watch Dogs: Legion falls short of what I want from a triple-A adventure.

    What you’re left with is a game that delivers a greatlooking futuristic London, and not much of anything else. It suffered a hefty delay, and the series transitioned from Ubisoft Montreal to Ubisoft Toronto. Something has been lost here, and we can’t help but feel that the commitment to making any character playable is the core issue. That’s been made possible, but just because Ubisoft could, that didn’t mean the developer should have. [Issue#182, p.147]

    Watch Dogs: Legion is undoubtedly the best of the series, the one that is closest to bringing the experience promised by that trailer of the first game. Hacks are useful and the lack of a fixed character ends up making DedSec the true protagonist and, since we recruit, control and manage the operators, in the end we end up feeling part of the resistance.
