    The devs have done a good job at recreating London, but they've spent so much time and resources on endless dialogue and voiceovers that the gameplay and story has been overlooked. Great concept, badly executed.

    At first the game caught my attention, the concept of Watchdogs attracts me, but the lack of innovation, the lack of a main character is very lacking, it is interesting to recruit people, but in the end we will only use one character that favors us to enter everywhere and the rest will be forgotten, unfortunately a weak game, far below the previous

    Might be the worst one for me in the series. But wow. I still loved it. Would recommend it. I hope there will be 4th part to the Watch Dogs Series in some time.

    Вообще Watch Dogs: Legion это квинтэссенция победившего феминизма и блм! Из моих 12и агентов DedSec десятеро это женщины, а вообще из всех 12и, так называемых "белых", всего было 4 человека. Вот такая политика. При этом те двое мужиков, которые всё таки попали в команду были доктором и каким то залоговым агентом, вообще никакими ни в бою ни, в хакерстве. Хорошо хоть обошлось без лгбт.
    Ну    Вообще Watch Dogs: Legion это квинтэссенция победившего феминизма и блм! Из моих 12и агентов DedSec десятеро это женщины, а вообще из всех 12и, так называемых "белых", всего было 4 человека. Вот такая политика. При этом те двое мужиков, которые всё таки попали в команду были доктором и каким то залоговым агентом, вообще никакими ни в бою ни, в хакерстве. Хорошо хоть обошлось без лгбт.
    Ну как я уже писал ранее про Watch Dogs 2, более менее серьёзный сюжет существует только в первой части этой франшизы. Legion, а тем более вторая часть, это сугубо про раздолбаев которые зачем то борются с системой!
    Игра структурно изо всех сил пытается построить свой открытый мир похожим на аналогичный из Marvel's Spider-Man, но у неё это плохо получается. В Spider-Man мне было интересно "пылесосить" город, в Legion нет.
    Что касается боёвки, то она мало отличается от предшественников.
    Вообще всякое задание начинается с того, что мы ищем грузовой коптер, забираемся на него и с высоты птичьего полета закидываем противников "гранатами", минами-ловушками, дронами-пауками, а так же управляем пролетающими мимо коптерами с пушками и т. д. Почему то, в отличие от предыдущих игр, в Legion я очень редко пользовался камерами.
    Да, игра довольно однообразна.
    Визуально она так же звёзд с неба не хватает, но претензий особых нет.
    Кстати, теперь протагонистов в игре много, можно играть за кого угодно, все со своими оружием и эффектами. Поэтому в игре практически невозможно умереть, погибают агенты ровно на 1 час, а пока они недоступны, можно играть за следующего. Мне это не очень понравилось, но всё равно герои лучше чем дебил Маркус из второй части. Единственная необходимость, это что бы в конце осталось хотя бы два "живых" агента, иначе просто не закончить сюжет.
    И так резюмирую. Честно говоря не знаю кому посоветовать эту игру. Поклонники предыдущих частей и так купят, а другие игроки могут найти подобные игры в более качественном исполнении. Вообще Ubisoft надо что то менять в подходе к своим играм, а то все серии и Far Cry, и Watch Dogs, и Assassin’s Creed превращаются в хреновый Ghost Recon Wildlands.    … Expand

    I enjoyed Watch Dogs, really enjoyed Watch Dogs 2, and the first 5-10 hours of this were, again, not bad at all. After that however it got a bit meh and became a chore to finish it.

    The story and characters were more than a bit cringe, the gameplay felt too repetitive too quick, and after an enjoyable first few hours it just tuned into a "fast travel here, meet your contact, then fast travel there, carry out same one of 6 or 7 tasks, fast travel back to contact to finish" etc etc ad nauseam.

    And the load times were so long I ended up just doing stuff on my own phone while waiting.

    Looked pretty enough, game crashed probably 8-10 times but that's not horrifically bad over 30-40 hrs on hardest settng while making sure I completed all missions.

    Second-hand prices I got this for are pretty cheap, but for $70 or whatever on release day I'd have felt a bit grumpy.

    First few hours a 7, but everything after that a 5, so a 6 for me.    … Expand

    Legion is the latest in Ubisoft's Hollywood hacker sandbox series.

It's too bad that they played it too safe with the design and politics, because it could have been one of the more interesting Ubi titles in years. The game isn't particularly innovative outside of the team recruitment, and the visuals are somehow worse than its predecessor on consoles. London--much like SF in WD2--is fun to explore at first, but its shallow nature becomes all too apparent after a few hours. Similar to Odyssey, it can be pretty fun in short bursts with a hit-and-run mercenary approach. The anemic online component can be entertaining, but falls well short of offering anything compelling beyond wreaking havoc with friends (a la GTA, but even more bland and pointless.)

    Hopefully, the UbiLegion will stop churning out recycled titles after their long string of solid-but-mediocre games, but after sampling Far Cry 6,the future seems bleak, indeed.    … Expand

    A better cyberpunk game than Cyberpunk. Still an incredibly sub par Ubi game. There are some fun puzzles involving drones. Beautiful graphics don't compensate for story, combat, and vehicle handling that are all pretty bad though.

    It's not a good game but it's not horrible. The story didn't feel like anything special mostly due to you playing as random people off the streets. I liked the idea of making your own Dedsec team but I rather they had a group of specific people you could recruit. People with unique abilities, equipment, and personality.
    The combat was fine. I enjoyed using CT drones whenever I could.    It's not a good game but it's not horrible.

    The combat was fine. I enjoyed using CT drones whenever I could. Besides that I just shoot no stealth. Also I dislike the fact that operatives you weren't playing as were cowards. I got into a fight and all the other guy did was run away. Like. What the hell? You got guns you're a hitman help me! So because of that it feels like you're on your own. No one to help except hacked drones. Now this working alone feeling would be gone if I was playing multiplayer. Which I never tried so I might be wrong.
    Speaking of. I never played most of the side quests, post game, legion of the dead, bloodline, or any dlc besides Darcy.
    In the end I enjoyed messing with CT drones. But the characters and story weren't special. I mostly beat the game just to have it under my belt.    … Expand

    The graphics- I don't see much diference from WD2.

    The vibe of the game- The series seem to be getting an avengers vibe to it, WD and WD2 tried to get has close to reality but implementing some non-sense that was fun, here you see some twisted distopia that makes you feel like you are on sci-fi game (drones that follow you, militias, eletric guns, bad AI), also i prefered the over all feel of WD2 world, the npcs and lociations where more fun.

    The gameplay- Driving was weird to get used to, but after 5 or 10 minutes You get used to drinving on the other side of the road, cars and AI are the same, combat is the same, oponents seem to be bullet sponges even with an head shot.

    Punching someone is weird, on the second game we had a cool meele weapon, now we have to figth basicaly mashing the buttons of the controler, i say its boring to say the least.

    The main problem that i find in this, is the recruitment mission, at 1st i thougth that it would be bad, oh boy was i wrong, it's awfull at least, the "Play has anyone" seem to be fun, but its not fun when you want to recruit someone and you die because your guns are weak, and 3 cars of enymies spawn, and you die. The missions i foud followed this path Go to XX location, Get XX thing, Go find the recruit, Enymies spawn and you die. Now that recruit hates DeadSEC.

    I had high hopes for the game, no i just want to finish it has fast has possible so i can play a new round of WatchDogs 2.

    Buy it when people start selling it at a low price

    Update: finished the game, there is still a lot of bugs,NPC's that spawn in front of you, or are invisible, missions that don't move foward because dialogue dosen't play.

    The story: Characters are not interesting, since the play has anyone makes it dificult, i'd rather have a main character and that's all, the villan (zero-day) is a clichê, you can pin point who is the hacker without much effort.

    So starting with the multiplayer, it came way to late to the party, I was already done with the game and had little desire to go back to it. But when I did reinstall the game, on 2 systems. mind you, in order to try out the multiplayer. It was a complete and utter let down and that not even warrant talking about further.

    To the main campaign then. I have never in any game experienced such awfull voice acting. It became a running joke in the end and it completely ruined the campaign. Don't get me wrong, for a good 10 hours or so of the game I was enjoying myself at least, putting up with the bugs and constant crashing. Being a completionist, I did try for platinum, so it wasn't so bad I couldn't get to the end, there was a lot of good foundation there. However the platinum trophy was thwarted very near the last few trophies due to a game breaking bug and what was good, was let down by an uninterresting story and mundane generic missions with characters who drew no empthaty or attachment.

    5 / 10 may be somewhat harsh. but when contrasted with the excellent watchdogs 2 , the gap between the 2 is truly that big. This game feels and plays like a generic ubisoft shooter, rather then something new. Thats enough to put me off the franchise.    … Expand

Some of the bugs I experienced caused me to close my application and start my mission over again. Another bug I came across was cars just blowing up randomly. This happened several times and it killed me once permanently killing one of my operatives.

    This game was very repetitive as well. There wasn't any real immersion. I don't even remember my characters' names. And due to that I couldn't really get into the story. All the missions where just take out a group of enemies in a compound stealthy or guns and blazing just to hit a button or hack a little device which is copied and pasted across all the missions. The recruitment missions had no variety at all. I found myself replaying the same recruitment mission several times over again. And the characters I recruited all had similar character models in fact I had two identical characters with the same voice actors. The gun combat also felt really easy even on hard it wasn't really challenging. One feature they don't have in this game that watch dogs 2 had was being able to buy cars. This was one feature I really enjoyed in watch dogs 2 but im disappointed Watch dogs legion doesn't have. Stealth in watch dogs 2 was a lot more fun because the characters didn't feel as brain dead and clueless. I would take down a guy right next to another and he wouldn't even notice.

    With there being a lot of bad in this game there are still good things.The melee combat was very fun and believable. I found myself using hand to hand combat more than using guns. They also expanded on the overall hacking. They shortened hacking cool downs on everything. It takes only 10 seconds to recharge quick hacks. Being able to hack vehicles without a cool down where all good changes. They also improved the driving. In watch dogs 2 the driving was very clunky and poor but they improved it in watch dogs legion. The handle break function was very fun to use drifting around the city. They also brought back the little puzzles where you have to move the tiles around to connect a positive energy source. These puzzles occurred a lot more in Watch Dogs Legion and I was glad for that because that was one of the things I enjoyed about Watch Dogs 2.

    Overall Watch Dogs Legion was a pretty average experience due to a lot of bugs, boring story and poor character development and a poor example as play as anyone the game ranks out as a 6/10 which is a step down from Watch Dogs 2. If Ubisoft wants to make another watch dogs game they should work on the storytelling, level design and character development.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Je pense avoir joué au moins bon Watch Dogs. Le fait de pouvoir recruter tout les pnj que l'on souhaite, apporte de la nouveauté mais une fois qu'on a débloqué les agents élites, on ne voit aucun intérêt a se prendre la tète a recruter de nouvelles recrues, devoir se taper les mêmes missions de recrutement inlassablement, qui se déroule dans des lieux qui sont identiques tout en se trouvant a l'opposée l'un de l'autre.

    l'histoire est passable, j'ai trouvé l'arc de Skye Larsen très dérangeant dans le bon sens du terme et j'aurais aimé que Ubisoft puisse proposé d'autres moment de ce type tout au long de l'aventure, a la place on se retrouve avec un retournement de situation gros comme une maison, des antagonistes peu marquant.

    Watch Dogs Legion en jouant sur la ville tout autonome, nous enlève quelques caractéristiques propre au Watch Dogs, par exemple on ne peut plus saboter les feux tricolores étant donné qu'il n'y en a plus, les courses poursuites ne sont plus aussi intéressantes que celle du 1 et du 2 qui nous offrait diverses solution pour échapper a nos ennemis.

    Le fait de pas avoir de personnages principale fixe a nuit pour moi au jeu, les pnj que nous recrutons ne réagissent que comme de simples PNJ et n'ont pas de comportement radicalement diffèrent les uns des autres.

    Maintenant je passe au gros point fort du jeu, qui est la ville, vraiment bien retranscrite et dégage une très bonne ambiance.

    En définitive, ne dépensez pas 60 balles pour ce jeu et attentez que le jeu passe vers les 30 euros ou moins, j'ai eu l'impression de perde un peu mon temps avec ce jeu et pourtant je ne l'ai pas payé au prix fort.    … Expand

    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.
