I liked all three games and I hope they continue. I think I liked the first game best, Legion the least but I still enjoyed it.

It’s nice to see a movie based in Chicago as a guy from the Netherlands and say, hey I have been there in Watch Dogs

I have thought about playing Watch Dogs since the alpha of the first game, but never got around to it. What am I missing?

Excuse me for reacting this late.

Taking out enemies with cameras, gadgets and traps in an open world is pretty nice. Gameplay a bit different in every game.

The story in the first one, wasn’t that interesting to me and a lot of reviewers talked about how wooden Aiden Pierces personality was. Also suicidal killer cop cars that will run over everyone and everything to get to you, hehe.

Second game is different in story and setting (San Francisco), mechanics and controls slightly different. I liked it, but again not for the story, same with the third, where everyone talks in street slang bruv…but the open world, stealth, drones, puzzles and hacking made me sink 60 hours into that game. Haven’t played the DLC for Legion, one can play Aiden Pierce, but I am not sure it is worth the price, even at discount.

Ah. Thanks. If the story is lackluster then I will probably just skip it.

Probably for the best. Watch Dogs 2 was a weird tonal shift.

Watch Dogs 2 was the only one I actually enjoyed playing.

Hated the main character. The guy in part 1 was a vigilante out for blood. But the second, you’re some millennial, happy, hipster hacker. It makes no sense running around the city tearing shit up with the second protagonist

Agreed. The first one was a tonal flatline for me.

agreed, one felt like an edgy young adult book you’d find on a shelf at the public library. Two had a lot of attitude and style and I loved it

Now if ubisoft could go under too. I’m still pissed the splinter cell games are such a shit show on PC and they have the neck to ask for full price with the bugs and multiplayer being disabled. They can get fucked

Honestly, PC gamers are unpleasable, and also the biggest pirates, so it’s no surprise that studios no longer want to cater to them.

At least the bugs are disabled /s

The article mentions a movie in the works. I don’t consider that dead and buried.

Plus as society gets more dystopian with surveillance, the IP will probably get more topics to cover

The hide and seek in it is still one of my favorite multiplayer games of all time! Pretending to be an NPC just had me cracking up!
