    Very interesting concept, loving the open world Ubisoft has created. The game is not perfect, but A+ for the work that went in to creating an amazingly fun world to explore.

    If you liked previous Watch Dogs games, you will love this one. It really improves on a lot of mechanics, the hacking is fun, being able to ride on top of a drone is great.

    Exactly that type of Sandbox I was hoping for, yes it may get repetitive after a while of recruiting your team but the thing is. You can play as anyone! Absolutely anyone. Albion Enforcer? No problem. Police Officer? No problem. I'm really looking forward to what will UBI bring with the Season Pass. Big open World.

    Oct 31, 2020 This game is really such a beautiful and fantastic game Ubisoft has ever made. I still love the first game, MY NUMBER ONE GAME EVER. I love the whole series, all of them were awesome, especially Legion. The developers worked hard on this game and it must of been hard to work on the voice acting. This game as such a intriguing story line-keeps you playing.    10

    Clearly the best Watch Dogs yet. Despite certain flaws which are expected with a newly released title, this game sucks you in right away. The visuals are stunning and the play as anyone mechanic is addicting. A must buy on PC

    Now, this may be a controversial one, and everyone knows Ubisoft is, well - not the best at the moment.

And I know of the constant crashes that exploded over gaming social media (the majority of these were patched as of Wednesday). However, as a huge Watchdogs fan, I pre-ordered it and got it day one, and I want to say, it was such a nice breath of fresh air from modern day games like Modern Warfare and other - questionable - games.

    The combat is heavily improved from One and Two. You can now punch, guard break and dodge instead of the plain Takedowns that were the only melee combat in WD 1 + 2. Gunplay feels above average for your typical Open-world third person shooter, and the range of ways to shoot was vast - something I’ll explain more later.

    Now the main selling point of this game is the play-as-anyone mechanic. I didn’t know how well this would be executed at first - I thought it could either be a cheap way to make the game unique or something that would completely revolutionise the franchise, and I can safely say it felt amazing. Walking around the world for ages just to find one person that would help your team significantly felt satisfying and not at all a waste of time. Unfortunately Ubisoft haven’t given us a real reason to recruit a “normal” person unless you really have to - but the amount of skilled operatives you can come across in one session made up for that.
    I haven’t yet come across the same person twice, which is very impressive when you consider there are 9 MILLION people to recruit, and their recruitment missions weren’t *too* repetitive - and neither were their abilities.

    Hacking didn’t feel much different, but like they say: you can’t fix something that’s not broken, but I would have liked to have seen different mechanics for the driving aspect. It feels good but not anything    … Expand

    FULLY RECOMEND TO ANYONE!

    TLDR: smooth/rewarding gameplay, optimized well on ps4 pro, solid entertaining story, not repetitive besides the pipe puzzles (I have played for 30+ hours) and you get the full game experience in the standard $60 edition (all that is added in the gold/ultimate edition is dlc side stories and cosmetics) I have seen a lot of negative reveiws on this game and I    FULLY RECOMEND TO ANYONE!

    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

    Deserves a 10/10, it definitely wasn't perfect, with the voice acting and narrative. But the amount of stuff they got right was incredible, they made you feel like every character is different and unique. Gameplay opportunities here are crazy.

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

    Doesn't deserve that low user score, i would like to bet tons of these 0's are fake accounts made by losers who are angry that cyberdelay 2077 moved into late december and now they let their anger out on this game. lol.
    Legion is overall pretty enjoyable game. Nothing super special.

    Here's the deal, it's not revolutionary or anything, but it's not that bad either. It's just mediocre i guess. And not every game needs to be best game ever. At least it doesn't have insane bugs like fallout 76 and actually has beautiful graphics.

    Compared to many other 2020 game that will be over in 2 hours, WD Legion actually has content. If you like that content, that's up to you obviously, but at least here's tons of stuff to do. Character recruitment is true standout, but i have to say WD1 had better story. I'm still hopeful for dlc's tho, because they bring back Aiden. Could use performance patches.

    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.
