    it is technically inferior to WD2, and with a season pass, Ubisoft spits in the face of their customers and expect you to pay 80€ for the privilege, if you respect yourself, don't buy ubisoft games

    Me gustaron mas el Watch Dogs 1 y el 2, pero este como otros juegos actuales de Ubisoft, carece de gráficos buenos acordes a la generación actual, su historia es genérica al igual que sus modelados que son los peores, muy mal hechos, la jugabilidad es tosca en el disparo y por ultimo, sus misiones son repetitivas. No se los recomiendo

    This game isn’t finished. It is incredibly broken. I've put in over 12 hours but, I’m not going to give it a full review. It doesn’t deserve it.

    It crashes. Often.

    Somehow it stutters like a movie with a bad internet connection. The dialogue often stutters and even piles up on top of each other.

    When on the last fight of a bareknuckle fight, I’ve had the AI go down and the crowd continues to yell. Meanwhile, I can walk around the ring and the game will not move on. I’ve had to reset the game to get it going again.

    The driving is bad. Randomly, the car slips to the side. Or skips ahead. Or rewinds and I’m several yards backwards.

    When the game is finished, I may review it again. But for now, don’t bother with this. Even if you are bored and looking for something new, try a different game instead.

The missions are structured as every other mission for the majority of the game. You don’t need that much time to liberate London and then you are left with too many useless characters and their missions which look and play nearly as the same you did before. BUT. London looks great. But that’s all. Expand

    I played the game 1-2 hours when it was free during the Days of Play. There is only 1 thing I can say is that this is one of the worst games i've ever played or watched. Guys, I live in Turkey and rarely can find money to buy games. Yet, I couldn't go on playing even though it was free. Definitely not recommending.

    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.

    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.

    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?

    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.

    Watch Dogs Legion, is set too far away in the future, 2029? Are you serious? What are they gonna do next, the next Cyberpunk? Watch Dogs 2 was set in 2016, 13 years between the event in this games, Is just too much. They should have continue with a direct sequel for Watch Dogs 2

    The differences between this games are soo many
    Watch Dogs 2 characters are so colorful, interesting, and they have clear ideas and intentions on what they want do to next. In Legion, you don't have a main character and all of them are soo lifeless, they don't know what they do, everything they do is soo mechanical and boring.
    The story in Legion is soo boring, long and without logic, instead Watch Dogs 2 story was soo fun, and interesting, every Main and side mission was a pleasure to the eye. I was soo hyped and very happy by every mission the game give to me.
    Soo many events could have been between the events from the second and the third game.
    Anyway, we can all agree, this is the worst Watch Dogs game out there ever.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. 1) Having no main protagonist meant that I couldn't connect with the characters I was playing as, and although it seemed like there was a lot of people to choose from, you realise that most of them are the same, but with a different body and name.

    2) There was a lot missing compared to the previous two Watch Dogs games, such as being able to listen in on NPC's phone calls and read their text messages. Enemies no longer carried grenades so we couldn't blow them up, there was no longer a phone and we could no longer walk into shops to buy clothes, we now have to stand outside while other NPC's get in the way of your view.

    3) We could only fight one of the main enemies in the game, and he wasn't too difficult to beat. At one point he leaves his machine wearing super heavy armour and all it took was 5 seconds to beat him with a pistol. I was laughing in disbelief saying "that was it?!".

    4) The fact that it was set in London, there's other and much nicer places in the UK to explore, plus there's more than Irish and Jamaican accents in the UK.

    5) There was a lot of audio glitches, which ruined the game for me and had to use subtitles in case I missed what was being talked about. I had one mission completely break on me, which took me to a black screen and I couldn't progress as it was a final mission for one of the main enemies, so the game would throw you back in as soon as you quit the game. The only way to fix it was to not hack anything and wait a while until progressing to complete the mission. Enemies also appear and disappear out of nowhere.

    6) The clothing was terrible compared to Watch Dogs 2, it felt like they didn't even try.

    7) Again the graphics didn't look as good compared to Watch Dogs 2.

    8) What was the point in that boxing ring in the bunker if we were only going to use it once in the beginning of the game?

    Personally I think Watch Dogs 2 is the best out of the three of them, when it came out, I didn't come across many bugs or if any at all. Don't waste your money on this game, it definitely feels like they didn't try hard enough with this one.

    The map is nice, but very unimpressed with the story compared to Watchdogs 1 & 2. I don't understand why people appear to be so fond of this.
    Random virtue signalling, little choice on your earned characters (Gender, features, etc etc), characters in the game screaming about politics.
    Non-believable story, little character development and this annoying AI always speaking in your ear

    Accents are terrible (I'm from the UK myself)
    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
    Really unimpressed by this, when quality content like Assassin's Creed still stands strongly. Saying that, Assassin's Creed also drifted away from the main story, so...

    One save file. Infinite loading screen. Hours of progress lost. Another glitched mess by Ubisoft after 14 months and several updates.

    As is natural for Ubisoft games, a lot of bugs, a short and weak story, trophy glitch. This game looks like a DLC from the previous game! disappointing, nothing new is presented here

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. La verdad muy decepcionante y eso que soy fan de la saga watch dogs, me platine el 2 y busco el platino del 1 algun dia y es una completa deshonra para sus anteriores entregas, bugs, historia malisima y sin prota fijado, eso era lo que le daba más sentimiento a los anteriores juegos de la saga, no le agarras tanto cariño a tus personajes como lo hacías antes con Marcus o Aiden, otro tema que tampoco me gustó es el doblaje lamentablemente no se que le dio a ubisoft porque dejó de doblar los juegos a latino y eso eso sus Doblajes, tanto el de Far Cry 4 y Watch Dogs 2 FUERON EXTREMADAMENTE BUENOS, los coleccionables están bugueados al igual que la historia aveces que incluso me obligaba a repetir misiones SOLO POR CAMBIAR DE PERSONAJE e visto que a nadie más le paso pero al menos cuando yo lo jugué me paso,otro tema que me pareció MUY MALO es el tema de la conducción QUE LITERAL ME PARECE INCREIBLEMENTE INCOMODA la camara se sintió muy tiesa al igual que el auto, la verdad me pareció un juego muy malo y esa dinámica de que puedes ser cualquiera es MUY BUENA idea pero almenos a mi parecer los señores de ubisoft no lo supieron aprovechar bien y de paso de mala manera, almenos yo le siento ese 4 muy merecido, cuando lo jugaba me aguantaba las ganas de borrarlo pero aja era una prueba de fin de semana y eso que me tomé mi tiempo y hacía otra cosas y igual me pareció corto, espero que la próxima entrega de la saga sea mucho mejor que esta y no una cagada como este Watch Dogs: Legion Expand

    Not worth AAA price for such a shallow and short campaign. It's easily forgettable, apart from 1 or perhaps 2 missions. Graphics mean nothing to me if it isn't backed up by the gameplay and BOY! I loved WD1, WD2 was a banger of vibes but this is a major downgrade to gameplay quality. So many hacks, gone. Phone menu and apps, gone. 3D printing your arsenal, gone.

Phone menu and apps, gone. 3D printing your arsenal, gone. I don't want to list everything, so there you have a few.

    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

    Feels like they turned a fun game into an average one. Bringing back Aiden to play was at least a bit of relief but it feels like the game is rushed and no vision to go on.

    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.
