    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.    … Expand

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 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.    … Expand

    A mediocre game with some nice mechanics that are more than cancelled out by the game's dialogue and characters being the most annoying I have ever come across. I can play this with the sound off for about half an hour before it becomes tedious. With the sound on I want to kick my TV in before it even gets to the main menu. I was quite thankful when it crashed on me earlier

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So I came into this not knowing what to expect, given the vast differences between the first and second games, and with them adding the 'recruit anyone' into the mix, it was at least guaranteed to be a novel experience.

    But.. the novelty quickly wore off.

    I don't want to waste anymore time on this game than I already have (86% trophy completion), so I will simply list out the Pros and Cons - Cons first.

    Cons

    - Main campaign is basic - it is fragmented and doesn't take the time to build into any meaningful interactions with either the team or the villains, to top it all off it is super short - I'd say around 9 hours for the main campaign (including watching all cutscenes, which were not that compelling at all)
    - Writing - as mentioned above - not very compelling writing - I seemed to get the same quests over and over again when recruiting people, which made it very boring and predictable - not sure if there are more than 5 recruitment quests tbh.
    -Bugs - too many to mention - main one would be cars bugging out, people not getting into cars when rescuing them etc, a trophy - oral history - bugged for me - thats when I decided to abandon the plat
    - Graphics & Voice Overs - the characters lip syncing was horrible, graphics were pretty average, and tbh the graphics from the second game were far better imho - I get that London, especially dystopian police state london is meant to be a lot more dreary than SF, but the attention to detail was just not where it needs to be for a AAA.
    - map size - while this was decent, it was annoying being told I was leaving london and being teleported back to the middle of some random street when trying to fly a cargo drone to an objective, seriously - this is the same company that made AC odyssey, couldve at least given us a map that went past the outskirts.
    - sound effects - the car sounds are horrible - and too quiet - this is the same company that made the crew and the crew 2, both with decent sounding cars - i don't see why assets can't be shared in this instance.
    - some of the characters have the MOST annoying accents, made it intolerable to listen to them.

    Final one - it is just a boring, repetitive game - it could've been so much more with a compelling story, greater interior interactivity, more depth to hacking, but it feels like they've created 100 different professions and then just assigned random stats to them - most of which are recycled across multiple professions - eg an electrical engineer will have a wrench as a melee weapon, so will a construction worker.

    So yeah - just super disappointed with this game. I don't recommend buying it until it is heavily on sale.

    Pros
    - Cool premise
    - london sights

    1) I was so excited to hear so many different british accenents when I knew that next part will be London. But ubi just cut English voice option from Russian edition and we have to suffer and listen to this nonsense.
    2) Unreal lags on PC even with low settings. Annoying fps drops.
    No one should behave themselves as CDPR does but it is better to postpone your game than realise it like that.

Ok that's fine if it has a political tilt...but the over the top wokeness really kills it.

    In the game you go after a woman who leads some group called Clan Kelly which are involved in organ harvesting. The head of Dedsec is also a woman (fine), but then so is the lieutenant. Not only that but nearly all the guards at all the locations are women (this made me laugh the most and felt so out of place). Imagine in a video game they have a hospital and you walk into the maternity ward and all teh nurses are men looking after the newborns. It would be ridiculous right? Some wokeness is ok and I can handle it but this is so over the top woke that it's nearly unplayable just from a story/game environment stand point. But to add to it the gameplay is very boring and repetitive. You go to each area and just do the same thing with the cameras and the spider drone.

    I hope enough women are into a game about hacking the city because I feel like I'm not represented in the game at all. Thus the game must not be for me (that is the woke logic right? Can't be what you can't see). So fine. Let 40 yr old soccer mom's buy the game.     … Expand

It’s most often a jumbled mess of weird hair, outfits, and voices that never seen to quite match. It forces you to grind to find someone you like, bringing everything to sudden a halt just to find a regular looking and sounding character. The game makes the spiderbot an optional gadget but it’s so often needed to progress the story it just gives you one anyways next to the area you need it. Gadgets and weapons inventory and selection is clunky in terms of navigation and very limiting in terms of what you can use. Same with car options and cars are just so bad to drive again, worse than watch dogs 1 clunky mechanics. The design is basically fetch quests after fetch quests with the occasional spiderbot/drone/hacking to break it up from time to time. There’s no reward system that feels rewarding collectibles aren’t anything, there’s some graffitiing billboards but it doesn’t do anything or Reward you anything. Much like most of the game it’s just a hollow option for filler. The game mechanics are wonky as hell. The combat is just one button to hit, one button to grab, one button to dodge. It gets very repetitive and boring. You’re limited to the type of guns you can get depending on your operative and there’s no rhyme or reasoning for it. The map feels bland, generic, and lifeless. There’s more npc roaming around but it all just feels pointless. Youd hacks from previous games are almost existent. You can’t money hack unless your operative has that, there’s no black out hack, not traffic lights hack, no steam bursting from the ground hack, there’s no cranes to hack, and even something as simple as hat surfing is almost impossible. you can’t walk into stores, most inside buildings beside 1 to 2 floors become a loading screen, interiors often repeat themselves, level design is copy and paste, no enemy variety, After a while this whole game just feels like the same fetch quests with no rewarding feeling. A tremendous disappointment. But the worst of it is the numerous technical issues that plague the game. Literal game breaking bugs. Horrendous screen tearing. Audio not coming in. Button prompts not appearing. The game crashes after an hour or so. The worst offender — There’s no manual save. So the game crashes and crashes and there’s only an occasionally working auto save. When you try to exit through the menu it crashes. When you play the game it crashes. When you put your system into rest mode it crashes. Twice I’ve have my save file corrupted from crashes and I can’t continue. 15 hours in crashes corrupted. 29 hours in crashes and corrupted. The game is boring, repetitive, uninspired and literally unplayable.… Expand

    This Game should be AAA. i paid 120 swiss francs, that i have to search a workaround for the last mission because the game freezes up(if you have same problem with lift in zeroday bunker, set difficulty to easy and unfollow the mission in the map, run trough the bunker without shooting and hacking. worked for me) after ONE FULL MONTH after official game release. that is just a huge spit inThis Game should be AAA. i paid 120 swiss francs, that i have to search a workaround for the last mission because the game freezes up(if you have same problem with lift in zeroday bunker, set difficulty to easy and unfollow the mission in the map, run trough the bunker without shooting and hacking. worked for me) after ONE FULL MONTH after official game release. that is just a huge spit in the face to all fans of ubisoft and shows again how poor and lazy they have turned out in the last years... i am very disappointed about ubisoft and i for sure wont buy any games of them anymore in the near future.… Expand

    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.    … Expand

    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.    … Expand

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

    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.
