The store associates were friendly and very helpful with my purchase! I was disappointed that the item that I came to buy was not in the store as yet! However, the young man immediately explained to me that he could have the item shipped to my home the next day for the same price! I was elated!!

Watch Dogs had a ton of hype back in 2012, once it was released in 2014, it debuted to a ton of flack for it’s watered down graphics compared to it’s E3 video, but it still sold extremely well. The game was decent enough, some decent sandbox activities, some interesting gameplay mechanics with the hacking, but it lacked an interesting story or engaging lead character and some meh driving and shooting gameplay. The sequel came out 2 years later, improved on pretty much everything the previous game did wrong. After 4 years if waiting, we finally got a sequel, but does it improve upon the previous game or just deliver more of the same?
In a near-future London, the government cracks down on anti-ctOS group, DedSec, after the group is blamed for a terrorist action on multiple government buildings. Months later, DedSec dust themselves off and plan on finding out who framed them while also taking down the man. To do so, you must recruit anyone who could help the cause and save London. Can you save your city?
Okay, to put it bluntly, it’s a better game than the first game, but it fails in comparison to the previous game. The London setting is fairly unique sandbox for the open world, though not the first to do it, it’s so little underutilized as a playground, it feels fresh. Graphically, I feel the game held back a bit because of the cross-generation the game is promoting, but looks better than what happened to the first game. Gameplay is largely the same, but with the recruitment angle being the new toy, here.
It works really well, but gets repetitive from having too many similar missions to recruit potential members. The lack of a true central playable character hurts the relatability of the lead, and makes it less immersive. The plot is also more of the same, in the same vein of the previous Watch Dogs games. Driving is also the same and the activities also very similar.
Sadly, the unique online modes are missing at the time of the review, making this less than the previous two games, sadly. Hopefully the online returns soon and .makes this a killer game to return to.
Overall, this is a fun game, but not a full priced experience, just one to wait when it hits $40 or less.

This game was almost a complete departure from how the other 2 games were played bc there isn’t one central character. I didn’t like that at first but it grew on me. I liked the story line and being able to fly on drones this time around. I still play WD2 bc the team play is so awesome. Didn’t really get that in this game.

It’s another cookie-cutter open world game just like the ones before it. Similar in mechanics to GTA5. If that’s your type of game, then you won’t be disappointed. This has the usual unique twist to the style that the series is known for as well.
If you like hacking, jumping from camera to camera, spiderbots, drone hijacking, etc. If you enjoy that type of gameplay, then this may be your game. However, if you don’t like games that follow the GTA layout of story missions and side mission grinding, then you may want to pass and wait for a deal/sale.

Disclaimer: I am still playing this game and have not completed campaign.
So far, I am really impressed with the mechanics and setting of WD: Legion. I was a fan of the first two games, especially WD 2. If you have played WD2, then you know a bit about the style of play. You will spend a lot of time exploring a variety of interiors by hacking security cameras and using spider-drones. You will also be solving a lot of environmental puzzles, including multi-tiered outdoor structures. This game is VERY vertical!
There are so many upgrades to this new installment, but the biggest thing is being able to recruit and play as anybody in the game. Being set in London, everyone has a funny British accent. I mean, Ubisoft really leans in pretty hard on the goofy voice-acting. It is recommended that you play with perma-death enabled. Each character in your team then becomes a little less expendable, and it makes you think more strategically. If all of your best-laid chess plans go wrong, you still have many tools to fight your way out of trouble though. 😉

This is definitely a stealth oriented game that requires patience and planning. Combat is usually not an effective approach to many situations.
The ability to recruit almost anyone in London to help you is an unusual option that challenges the player to decide which personnel skills will help you advance in the game.
Not recommended for players who like first person shooters or other run-and-gun games. Good for players who like games requiring stealth and indirect lines of attack.

Not as good as the first game, but a tad better than the 2nd one. The London scene is cool. Recruiting characters is not that great. I would’ve preferred a single protagonist. Overall it’s worth it.

I owned the other versions of this game so I knew what to expect. The variety of side missions is better than the past and the ability to choose different characters with various unique abilities based on your mission is a plus. It’s based in the U.K. so you have to use to driving on the left side of the road and their dialect. Some missions can get repetitive at times but all and all it’s a pretty good game
