    Stupid A.I, Repetitive missions, Cant go in stores, drones do all the witnessing now. No one calls the police anymore, being a cop only means unauthorized access. No cop vs criminal gang warfare anymore, repetitive fight animations. All A.I feel the same, A.I target you despite getting hit by others.

    The world of Watch Dogs Legion is fascinatingly dynamic and I'm having a great time with it.

    I really like the concept of Watch Dogs: Legion as it has the system where you can play as any characters which have different abilities, which I think its interesting! But the one thing I do not like about Watch Dogs: Legion is that the controls are weird on PS4,and the game crashes frequently. I hope Ubisoft resolves this but other than that, its a great game!

    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.

It makes it so much fun to mess with people. That one time I tried to rescue a potential recruit's lover from the Kelly gang, the bad guys almost smoked that broad before I could get her out of there :). I am playing with Permadeath on, so losing operators , but that makes the game so edgy .... all those complaining about the game being dull ... come on , play with permanent death on from the start . It changes the game so much. Spider bot is great too, that in your face "Alien facehugger style" takedown... LOVE IT! Graphics wise I did not see this as spectacular, seems maybe a bit better that WatchDogs 2, but definitely not 2020 . But then I did not really notice the graphics after a bit. That said , i think there are things the Ubisoft could have fixed. I crashed a couple of times going back to the Main menu part. It did not seem to adversely affect my progress in the game. I think this kind of thing needs to be picked up in testing. I also think they should have launched with multiplayer ON :/ ... I mean in Dec I will be playing CyberPunk. All in all , great game , -3 points for bugs , +2 points for doing all this work during quarantine.… Expand

    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. O jogo tem uma ideia incrível, mas foi desperdiçada facilmente.

This is not just about a good story with one character whom you can shoot and drive with, there is a lot of content here. Watch dogs was always different from standard open world 3rd person shooter game but this sets it far apart from any other game. The amount of freedom and time you can invest in this game is worth the 60$. This is where the open world genre will innovate itself from not being limited to one character but instead a legion of characters for you to toy with. Hats off to ubisoft for making such an interesting step forward which will now probably be credited to the next open world game which uses this idea and makes it work. But for me this is a big step forward and i hope they will keep at it with this game and its online modes. Looking forward for the future of Watch Dogs!… 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.    … Expand

    I have seen a lot of negative reveiws on this game and I understand that not everyone will share the same opinion with me but are we playing the same game!?

    Obviously its not perfect but I think it is really good, not just for an ubisoft game but a game in general.

    The gameplay is really smooth depending on what operative your are using, if you have a professional hitman, you can go up to people and execute them jhon wick style, and if you have a beekeeper you can send a swarm their way and it just feels so cool.(there are many more operatives with great abilities) while if you didnt like the gameplay of WD or wd2, you may not have as much fun as me ut I still think it could offer enough to let you have fun.(NOTICE!If you are someone who likes going up against very smart AI, the ai in this game, though quite unforgiving if caught, can be very dumb)

    i'm not sure about PC or Xbox but the game seems very well optimized on my ps4 pro, the graphics are great, the loading times arent obnoxious like some other games that came out this year and the input is perfectly fine. Another complaint I have heard is that the story is boring and while Its no the last of us or the witcher 3, it is really solid and entertaining. (without any spoilers) the plot is basically something happens to london and dedsec that requires you to recruit the people of london and un cover the person disturbing the have to find the perpetrators and restore peace in london.

    People have also been saying that it is a very repetitive game and I just have to disagree , there are so many things to do around london and so many Ways to infiltrate each hideout whether you go in guns a blazing, stealthily, with a drone, disguised, etc. It always has new things to offer. Also, cto clear each borough of London, they have similar missions that have been re touched to feel unique each time and the final mission of each borough is unique and rewards you with an elite operator (spy, drone expert, anarchist, etc.) That has special abilities that is hard to find just on the streets. (The only thing that feels repetitiveto me is the pipe puzzles but they dont seem to be as frequent as they were in WD1 or 2)

    I HAVE BOUGHT THE GAME ON THE STANDARD EDITION ($60) and it doesnt feel like I'm missing out on anything so dont feel inclined to but the gold or ultimate edition unless you want to expand on your experience of the game.    … Expand

    It's a unique and refreshing experience, but only if it clicks with you. If we ever get another sequel the template for something truly special is here. I hope it happens, but I don't have a lot of faith in gamers giving it a shot. It's weird and you have to make your own fun sometimes. I am, despite it's problems, having a ton of fun messing around in Legion. Is it a 10/10 experience? For me it is, actually. I'm already 20 hours in and it's been three days. Finding new characters to recruit and then trying them out is a new kind of addiction and I'm all in for it.    … Expand

    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.

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.

    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.    … Expand

The standard hacks like cellphone distractions and currency stealing are completely downgraded and limited by a cool-down that takes way too long to recharge. 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.

    Really really boring - after a few hours, i felt the repetitiveness creeping in AGAIN - in a ubisoft title -
    do they never EVER learn? Beautiful world of London, but nothing interesting to do there.
    Waste of money - now Im really doubting Valhalla.
    Watch Dogs Legion is a game, that's fun for a couple of hours.

Graphics are bad for being 2020's, same engine no new things. And the bugs as usual for Bugisobt are annoying, and one of them makes the game unplayeable.

    Great game. Really reminds me of watch dogs, the story is a bit lackluster and there are a couple of bugs that are persistant but it is day two so they can be patched out soon. The characters aren't amazing,but have personalities. The living world and play as anyone aspect gets more fun and fun the more you play. If you are a watch dogs fan or assassins creed fan, pick this game up.

    by far the best of the 3. so much fun with some very dark and disturbing missions which sets it far above the first two when it comes to a dystopian sort of world. once you get passed the mediocre facial animations and constant pop in on current gen at least. its a lot of fun and it seems Ubisoft is very self aware this time around and are focusing a lot on making an enjoyable experience.by far the best of the 3. so much fun with some very dark and disturbing missions which sets it far above the first two when it comes to a dystopian sort of world. once you get passed the mediocre facial animations and constant pop in on current gen at least. its a lot of fun and it seems Ubisoft is very self aware this time around and are focusing a lot on making an enjoyable experience. also the Play as Anyone feature really does work well. I was a bit concerned with there being no protagonist this time around but my worries have subsided. I find myself really caring about the people I recruit and it really feels like I'm apart of a secret spy organization sending out agents to save London.

    I'm finding it rather fun on Permadeath, hardmode. I'd really not recommend this game if you are looking for anything other than a sandbox to play around with this whole NPC recruitment sim deal cause much of the game, such as the story, city, objectives, most missions (some are really great) are fairly bland to sometimes bad. However, if you are looking for an Xcom lite in an open worldI'm finding it rather fun on Permadeath, hardmode. I'd really not recommend this game if you are looking for anything other than a sandbox to play around with this whole NPC recruitment sim deal cause much of the game, such as the story, city, objectives, most missions (some are really great) are fairly bland to sometimes bad. However, if you are looking for an Xcom lite in an open world third person and you can ignore most else, using the world and story as reasons to play around in a digital sandbox and want the risk of permadeath to mould the way you play and use all systems available then you'll have great fun but there is one more catch, it takes some progression into the story before Permadeath kicks in and you might be put off early on, I'd say stick with it if you've already bought it.

    However, if I could, I would have waited for a sale, It's an Ubisoft game and there is a lot of jank with massive shortfalls in TLC and polish as well as bonkers about of tiny busy work that means **** all more than collectables in any other AAA game.

    This isn't a handcrafted game, you can feel the lack of passion and the politics seeping though from the developers is questionable, almost like Antifa made this game (and yes, i know that's the theme but it cuts deeper than that, too much of it it is on the nose and agenda pushy.

    I'll give it a 7 but it barely scraps by and that is only because I went in with the sole intent of only focusing on the sim aspect and permadeath while consciously making the decision to play the story while podcasting or watching youtube/netflix. If I was playing this game ignoring permadeath and were looking for a good story, good characters and enjoyable interesting missions that didn't rely on me making my own fun then I couldn't see myself giving it more than a 5. I'll give it a 7 though because they have focused on allowing me to make my own fun in the game and it works really well, It would have benefited them if they had made that clear to all players and pulled back from trying to force the player to play a certain way through the tutorials and endless on screen prompts, HUD elements and so on.

    This game could have been something really special had they just went full on immersive sim and dialed back everything else but I suppose they'd loose the casuals, it seems like a corporate decision and they messed up.    … 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.
