    Watch Dogs Legion is an excellent video game in which you can cause havoc in the streets of London by recruiting anybody!

    This game was good. Its basically a British Version of GTA 5 with a scale replica of London. I loved the plot of the story with the ending being sad (NO SPOILERS). I like this game but there are some flaws to this game. Sometimes when I'm in the menu it will automatically crash. There's also barely in Online Mode. But overall it is an "ok" game

    As a big Watch_Dogs fan I must say, Legion is quite disappointing. Sure, it’s a decent game on its own, but as part of a franchise it’s certainly the weakest.

    This is a very poor and lazy effort, and inferior to both previous Watch Dogs in almost every conceivable way. Pretty much the only thing it has going for it is the London location.

    The dialogue is cringeworthy; characters in the game speak like a 50-year-old’s idea of how teenagers speak… and they do this no matter their age or social class. Hearing a Barrister say “that’s well lit”…    This is a very poor and lazy effort, and inferior to both previous Watch Dogs in almost every conceivable way. Pretty much the only thing it has going for it is the London location.

    The dialogue is cringeworthy; characters in the game speak like a 50-year-old’s idea of how teenagers speak… and they do this no matter their age or social class. Hearing a Barrister say “that’s well lit”… just, please… no. And almost every character (including the supposed comedy AI narrator that’s ripped off Portal 2) swears constantly in a way normal people simply don’t. And no attempt has been made to make the voices sound like they’re coming from the actual character in the game environment - it’s just a raw file from the soundproof recording booth pasted into the game with no post effects.,

    The voice acting itself is abysmal with Dick Van Dyke “cockernee” accents and horribly flat emotionless “phoned in” delivery. And the way they’re sometimes inappropriately matched to certain characters likenesses strays into uncomfortable racist territory (witness an Asian female character speaking with a Jamaican accent, for example).

    The graphics… well, it’s a sort of London (heavy condensed - would only fool tourists), and the buildings and streets generally do look great. But, unlike previous Watch Dogs games, you can’t go into any of the shops. The cars are mostly electric, but don’t sound like actual electric cars (they seem to change up through “gears”!) and the steering is very laggy. And there’s no in-car “cockpit” view - the previous two games had this, why is it missing here? In fact just about every cool feature from the previous two games is missing in this one, such as your mobile phone.

    The playable and NPC character models are awful - they’re all slightly freakish-looking in some way or other; again, worse than the previous two games.

    The plot is… hardly anything worth thinking about. You’re part of an underground movement fighting against bad people and a bad establishment. The game is just boring, with every mission feeling pretty much the same, and many missions going back to locations you’ve already visited.

    Seriously… play this for a bit, and then go back and play the original Watch Dogs (which came in for so much criticism at release)… even in 2021, it’s much more fun.    … Expand

    Solid game, if it was only for the story and the game it-self it would be maybe an 8 for me, but then the SeriesX upgrade makes it shine up to a 9. Futuristic london just looks awsome with RayTracing and the bump of resolution on SeriesX. Till now, the best RayTracing experience on console, once i've seen what it can bring to the game all other games are lacking.

    Just more of the same from Ubisoft. Another open world sandbox with collectibles, liberating districts, and an uninteresting story.

After playing as different characters, the only differences are some very minor bonuses (Such as access to a drone, a specific starting weapon or 10% off at clothing stores.) or some different dialogue. The AI seems to have trouble using their weapons to kill the player, because they will instead try to circle around them to gain some type of tactical advantage, but then stop short of doing anything with it.

    It's not like the game is inherently awful or broken. It's just so painfully generic. This is the same game as all Assassin's creed games and Far Cry 2-5. Watch Dogs: Legion even has the stock "Comedy" character, who, while somewhat entertaining, just seems like a character that needed to be added because they needed to check off the "Humor" box.

    It's a perfectly functional game. And if you're looking for another Ubi-sandbox game, then this will keep you busy. But you could also play any other modern open-world sandbox game, and probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference.    … Expand

Чушь и бред слабоумного! Как по мне все эти мнимые школокритики зарабатывают себе очки путём лишь провокации и скандала, унылые и жалкие типы. Впрочем, эта ситуация прекрасно даёт мне лично понять с кем мне не по пути. Ох уж эти мамкины критикули чуть ли не каждый второй посчитал за честь облить грязью последний Watch Dogs и, откровенно говоря, закралось у меня некое беспокойство. Вторая часть мне очень понравилась и для меня выход Легиона это было событие, которого я действительно ждал. И знаете, в итоге я практически получил то чего и хотел. Всем кому нравилась вторая часть обязательно понравится и последняя, я в этом уверен. А те, кто формирует своё мнение на основе дешевых крикунов и выскочек, то просто проходите мимо. Итак всё же что такое теперь этот новый Watch Dogs? Это по-прежнему история про хакерскую ячейку DedSec, но теперь из солнечного Сан-Франциско мы с вами перемещаемся в более знакомый нам Лондон будущего. Знакомый и потому, что уже гоняли по нему в Syndicate, и потому, что по погоде прямо родной Питер. Даааа, дождит тут как полагается и выглядит вся эта стихия, и лужицы на асфальте, и мокрые людишки и прочие поверхности зданий, автомобилей и всего-всего-всего весьма и весьма реалистично. Рейтресинг как он должен быть! А каков этот Лондон ночью в неоновом свете это просто надо видеть. С картинкой Юбисофт как обычно сделали всё выше всяких похвал. Геймплейно в Легионе по сути всё очень близко ко второй части, но лишь отчасти и в базовых функциях. Да мы по прежнему можем нахакать ловушек, поуправлять дистанционно транспортом, взломать дронов, видов которых тут немало (что в общем-то ново), отвлечь неписей, закинув им какую-то мерзость на мобилку или закоротив их гарнитурки, ну и конечно пошмалять по вражинам из огне/электрострелов. На этом параллели заканчиваются. Арсенал хакерского инвентаря значительно претерпел изменения. Теперь в нашем распоряжении имеется несколько видов электромеханических паучков и дронов как для хакерской взлома, видеосъемки так и для ведения боя. Помимо этого имеем возможность маскировки персонажа, наших дронов/паучков и также тел поверженных противников для любителей стелсяночки.… Expand

    My gripes really stem from the place of being a fan. Anyone entering Watch Dogs: Legion looking for a by the books open world game is going to find a lot to enjoy. There are small puzzles to solve, plenty of collectibles, lots of missions and I would say the shooting and driving are the best this series has ever been. Fans of the series like myself however will be disappointed by the lack of enjoyable characters as well as stand out missions and story beats. With how close Legion is releasing to Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla and Immortals Fenyx Rising it feels like Watch Dogs: Legion was left to fight for your attention and your money with less money put into development. I would recommend both Watch Dogs 1 & 2 as well as plenty of other Ubisoft experiences from the last few years before Legion at full price.

    It’s a convincing facsimile, which makes trying to save it from Albion and its assorted cronies a more compelling task. And Legion’s big gimmick is that you can play as, well, anyone. Construction workers, lawyers, YouTube stars, retired cage fighters, Anarchists, football hooligans. All are served up by Ubisoft’s smart procedurally-generated trick, each with their own look, background and sometimes even voting record.
