    i really wanted to like this game but i can't its full of horrible accents, terrible driving and kinda limited story if i could have got a refund i would have but apparently i played the game which is the same as opening it (who knew) this is probably the second review ive written because of how bad i found a game so if my review should say anything it's that.

    Cons: Bad graphics (old and rusty) Very dull and not motivated story line. Enemies are lacking motivation and a lot of cliches. Filled with bases which should be controlled and overtaken (bad remark and idea from AC series) Stupid AI. It’s just bad. Believe me... Bugs
    And finally, Micro transactions in a game costs 60-100$ edition!!!

    Underwhelming, dull and extremely buggy.

    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

    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.

    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

    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
    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.

    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.

    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.

    full of repetitive missions and dialogues, it's not even a good open world game.

    It's an okay game. Watch dogs 2 was better in a lot of ways, especially in driving and in storytelling. The possibility of recruiting everybody is more a gimmick than anything, it's not used in any significant way sadly. The setup is nice (but an "apolitic brexit" is a little bit stupid).

    I wish this was the only problem, but no. The main story follows a Watch Dogs 1 way but much worse. The plot Twist, the team dinamic, the gameplay loop, It's everything so boring and bad writted. Watch Dogs 2 had a gameplay loop just like Legion, but the team dinamic and the dialogues helped.
    They tried to inovate, they delayed the game and nothing. Ubisoft made it again.

    Sim, a legião decepcionou. Faltou Watch Dogs nesse jogo.

    Sou um fã da franquia, joguei o primeiro e segundo jogos e me diverti muito e criei compaixão tanto por Aiden quanto por Marcus, a evolução do 1 para o 2 foi insana em gameplay, o que me deixou muito animado para o novo jogo, porém, tem algo no Legion que me faz sentir como se não estivesse jogando Watch Dogs, e sim algum outro TPS (Third person shooter) qualquer.
    Apesar de conseguir me divertir bastante, após a história, o game perde o sentido, não tem mais o porque recrutar tais agentes se a luta já acabou, além de que, depois de recrutar um espião já se faz de tudo e ainda tem as animações e armas mais maneiras do game, portanto contratar outros não serve para nada. A falta de protagonista não foi suprida pela história, que por si foi mediana, porém genérica ao extremo, onde a parte mais interessante é praticamente uma história da pessoa que imaginou o Upload da série Upload da Amazon Prime.
    Senti um retrocesso no parkour do jogo, o que é péssimo, pois Aiden e Marcus faziam acrobacias incríveis nos jogos anteriores. Reciclamento de rosto e voz dos personagens também é extremamente comum, apesar da dublagem engraçada em um bom sentido (ponto pra equipe por não ter forçado sotaques tão fortes quanto na versão legendada).
    Um pós game péssimo com exatamente NADA para fazer. O personagem mais carismático do jogo é um robô, o que seria estranho, pois robôs não deveriam demonstrar sentimentos, mas o carisma dele é explicado pela missão secundaria dele onde mostram a origem de Bagley, foi mais interessante que a história em si.
    Parece que a Ubisoft se esforçou em trazer um ambiente ala Watch Dogs 1 (mais sombrio/dark), mas entregou história e personagens no estilo Watch Dogs 2 (mais animado e jovem, o que funcionou excelentemente no 2)
    Não é tudo horrível, as animações de finalização são excelentes (único jogo em que me senti o John Wick ao jogar com o matador profissional), o novo combate corpo a corpo é com certeza algo que faltava nos anteriores porém não foi tão bem executado considerando a existência de sistemas muito superiores em jogos como Sleeping Dogs ou até mesmo GTA 5. Outro ponto positivo é o impressionante trabalho da Ubisoft com as relações entre os NPCS. Matar ou agradir um familiar de alguém que não gosta do Dedsec faz com que essa pessoa comece a tomar atitudes como te xingar no meio da rua ou até mesmo sequestrar um membro de sua equipe Dedsec. Ao encontrar policiais ou agentes da Albion que aparentemente não gostam do Dedsec (o que pode ser identificado no perfilamento com o simbolo de "deslike"), é possível fazer algumas tarefas para que eles aceitem dar uma chance ao grupo. Essas tarefas incluem diversas coisas que vão de: incapacitar/matar o agiota, perseguidor ou investigador dessa pessoa até mesmo roubar informações confidencias de seus rivais de trabalho. Esse sistema de recrutamento é um ponto forte e divertido do jogo.
    Definitivamente não vale os quase 300 reais cobrados e eu evitaria comprá-lo até que a versão completa esteja por pelo menos 80 reais.

    Uma palavra que descreve o jogo em geral: Decepcionante.

    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.

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.

    Story: Rather generic, with an unsatisfying end.

    Open world: Recruit everyone is the star of this game, other than that.. there's not much interesting things to do.. missions are 95% of this game.. main and side.

    To end, I really liked this game until about halfway through the game.. where the flaws and repetition of this game reared it's ugly head the more you play it... as there just wasn't enough depth to all aspects of this game to really enjoy it all the way through. The game went from a 9/10 during the first half, all the way to an average 7/10 by the time the credits rolled for me.

I could also recruit them and get them on my side of this struggle. So I would need a character with a non lethal weapon if I want to recruit. I also wanted to recruit some skilled military people into my ranks but I didn't know fighting and defeating their comrades in arms would make them hate my organization and thus make them unrecruitable it's little things like these that makes Legion stand out from other open world games also the fact that you can play as any character you can find as long as you recruit them really make this game a fantastic experience.

    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

    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.

    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?

Watch Dogs Legion's music is a little meh in terms of songs and impact. Also, in Watch Dogs 2 the music app was a very cool choice, you could even make your own playlist and as well as discover new songs around the game world. Here there's really nothing like that at all. The upgrade menu for gadgets and other items just seems dull and like it was an afterthought. there are a few cool upgrades but theres not really a lot there.

    Now one of the coolest aspect's of the game is the fact that every character is recruit-able, i think that is a very cool thing. But, its not perfect, some of the voice acting can be a bit dodgy and off putting and i found that i could beat every mission with seemingly just one operative so it kind of broke that illusion of the multiple recruits.

    In conclusion, this isn't a terrible game ive definitely had my share of fun and memorable moments. I think its step in the right direction but needs some fine tuning before it can really be great.

It is a bummer it takes them almost a month if they care, to make the correct fixes. None of the bugs I encountered were terrible apart from 4 crashes the game had while I played the full campaign.

    I waited for this game literally forever. The ambition of being able to recruit anyone is something I am impressed with this game, yes the skills of characters might be repetitive (BARELY) but each individual in the game seems and feels unique. I have tried to find 2 of the same people and until now havent been able to. I am amazed that all cutscenes involving your character and the way you customize him literally are exact and flawlessly even when zooming on to faces or body and their voice.

    Even though you can be anyone and change characters frequently you dont feel that you are disconnected to them you feel the same as if you only had 1 protagonist that you can play with.

    Visuals are more than impressive, the amount of details in the world are mind blowing, the colors, the visual effects. Having visited London on many occasions, it really captures the vibrance London has. Now the only thing I can say about the world is that they should have put the volume of the cars louder when driving and the atmospheric sound of the city louder as well. I sometimes feel that they sort of muted it down. I have to say the only bug I found with visuals was with color saturation (PS4 Standard version, I feel it is more of my consoles fault) they halfway fixed it with an update this week. (A month since the game released).

    The story is fantastic, really entertaining. Wish there were more car variety in the game. I felt there were only like 15 types of cars so it felt repetitive. The amount of things you can do to carry and execute each mission doesnt make it quite repetitive as you might think. But yes most of the fame is hacking, but that is what watchdogs is.

    I recommend this game to anyone who wants to have fun and enjoy being a stealthy assassin or just a maniac. This is a game about fun and the story does get a hold of you no matter what character you are playing with, Script felt good and entertaining. Wish NPCs could talk more and engage better, sometimes they felt too robotic, when encountered in the streets.

    ALWAYS remember, never buy a game from ubisoft a full retail price or on the day it releases, Unfortunately even with delays, Ubisoft doesnt quite deliver a game without bugs.

    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.

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.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Tl;dr - the game is missing elements from the original and feels a bit disconnected from the previous titles. Yes there is DedSec but its not the same.

    You start in a prologue where DedSec is being set-up by a criminal operation hell-bent on committing terrorism aimed at destroying your reputation. The character you're playing then dies after failing to stop the 3 site explosions you and your established DedSec team tried to foil. The introduction is then played and you're put into a character selection screen. You're not able to customize, but you can pick and choose from a wide range of models. The model you select has been picked by DedSec as a supporter of the cause and you're instantly thrown into becoming a member, without a test you're just simply now DedSec. At least in the 2nd game, Marcus had to perform a high-level test to qualify himself, in this one you're simply 'chosen', and it is accepted that you can just do everything expected of you. Characters all have special traits making their abilities a bit more or less desirable for whoever you take but I chose one of the basic 'European' looking models who didn't give a lot of extra traits and perhaps that is good?

    The futuristic version of London is filled with automation, AR, and a society that has become victimized by Albion - the 'bad' guys of private security who have taken over the policing of the city. You're just thrown into the mix as a resistance member who is taking on the 'bad' guys looking to restore the name of Dedsec and overthrow the tyranny of the police state. And I hate it.

    Gone is the story. Gone is the story of why. Yes London is under siege as CTOS has ravaged yet another city, and freedom has simply gone away in a formerly free society, but the uprising is a bit bland. There is no story like that of Adien Pierce trying to get his nephew, there is no Marcus trying to make San Franciso realize the evils of emerging technology. Nope, you're just an English bloke or lass trying to restore the name and creditability of an uprising counter-culture movement. And to be honest, the story is horrible 2 hours into the game.

    There is no linear character development, it is all team-based. No longer do you have a simple character tree that you can modify to play the way you like to, perhaps developers realized the simplicity of using a drone to do everything, especially with just simply calling in enemy factions in, start a gun battle, then call the police, and let the bad guys kill one another off as you easily walk in and around the dead bodies to achieve your mission was too easy. Now there are 4 kinds of drones, all having different singular unique skills that allow you to approach the 'puzzles'. The spider drone is basically your evolved RC car that seemingly has more range than anything. I was easily able to do most of the first missions with it alone while sitting on the street level hidden behind a bin. The English pound is now ETC a form of cryptocurrency that is only there for clothing, no more car purchases, or 3D printer upgrades. Nope, you just buy clothes. Turn your male character into a drag queen, by endless stupid masks and run around with a gas mask... whatever?! The cryptocurrency is boring and to be honest just a side mission. Especially considering you can jump from person to person and STILL use the SAME clothing you paid for and have access to the SAME wallet as before, this is seemingly a bad concept.

    Elements from Assisans Creed make their way into how people interact with buildings. Generic doors open up with an all-black mysterious backdrop that people come out of.... seems a bit corny if you ask me. I don't care if it adds realism, when you're walking by a shop and a random 1-way door opens and a model just emerges, it looks corny as hell. As far as the city modeling goes, it is excellent and to be honest one of the more 'lived in' worlds I have ever played in. The cars often have no one in them, so hi-jacking these AR cars are easy and with no risk. I am guessing the automatically driven cars of the future will work similarly; however, the motorcycles/ mopeds operate manually and have poorer handling than previous games, especially in the city. Drones fly throughout the city and can be commandeered for your use, alternatively, they are able to be summoned for different tasks and needs.

    Even with 2+ hours of the game played, I am a bit disappointed at the 'evolution' of the title. I am playing on HARD and the game is easy. Very forgiving and to be honest, at times it tests my skill as a gamer, it is not 'hard'. Even with permadeath on I am able to do a lot of missions without much loss or worries. Some are ultra-easy and I am baffled by the ease of completion - I am not some pro gamer, so it is a bit shocking how easy things are.

    This is by far one of the more, bleh versions of the game. WatchDogs_2 was better.

    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.

    Having played and loved the previous Watchdogs games, I was excited for this one. Promises of co-op multiplayer had me sold, although bittersweet, hearing they no longer had the intrusion style multiplayer of Watchdogs 2 had me sad. That for me was one of the best and original aspects of the game.

That for me was one of the best and original aspects of the game.

    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.

So, the game does need some serious patching and polishing.
    Luckily, main gameplay, shooting, driving, hacking, close combat, works well. And I have not encountered any major glitches or game breaking bugs. Which means you can play thru the game at its current state if you want. Although it might be smarter to wait for them to properly patch it up.
    Best thing about Legion for me at the mo is the wry, smart humor we learned to love in WD2. And all the British accents! And the interesting stories all over the map.
    When I started the game, all the gun, security and riot drones whizzing about the place made it rather chaotic and unfriendly experience. So, the game has a rough start that throws you in at the deep end. But, it only took few hours to acquire the skills to deal with them dangerous drones (trying to avoid spoilers here!). And it was at that point the game started rocking.
    At the mo, I can only give the game 7/10 due to the roughness of it all. But once Ubi polishes it all up, it will be worth 8/10, easy. A good, solid game, worth playing for sure.
    Added later; I had to drop the score to 6, due to two factors: 1. The missions become painfully repetitive further you play thru the story and...
    2. London in Legion is boring. The city lacks anything interesting to see. The historic buildings are there, but apart from them, the city is very drab and dull and devoid of detail, and does not represent or resemble real London in any way. Its like they just copied the historic buildings from Syndicate, then built the rest of the city around them in a week. Far cry from WD2's lively city. And far cry from Syndicate's London too, come to think of it.
    And while they've released two more updates, they do not really do anything of note to the game's issues...
    Final verdict after competion: The best part of the game has been the recruitment. I managed to find some really interesting and likable characters from the streets of London, and have become very fond of them, as they all have their own personality. (the recruits I gained from missions weren't nearly as interesting, tho)
    -sadly, the rest of the game is best forgotten, so, 6/10 it remains. I'll keep the game, tho, just to see if it looks and sound any better on PS5...

    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.

    Has i said, i'd rather play WD2, story is better, map is better, combat is way more funnier

    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.
