    WD1 has aged extremely well. I tried playing it when it first came out but didn't appreciate it and eventually stopped playing. Picked it up again this year and just finished it yesterday and had a blast with it.

    Bought WD2 today so we'll see what that's like.

      Definitely not the Punisher. Aiden does fixer contracts for various criminals and steals money from the average citizen. He invades privacy no different from Blume and Also did a full blackout on all of Chicago just to reach one guy and kill him.
      Definitely not Punisher.
      He's just a control freak raised by a mobster and motivated by the death of niece and other moments where he had no control over the course of events.
      Definitely not a hero or antihero. Just a man with enough power at his fingertips.

    While I still preferred the side quest of 2, I think that WD1 actually tried to tie in side missions, or at least certain ones. For example, the human trafficking side mission chain is only unlocked after you have completed the story arc involving it and is a direct continuation of that story bit.
    Also, I'd say compare the hacking of the two games, but WD2 would easily take that point considering it came out years after 1 and had a baseline to improve on.

    @iamjohnporter67 5 місяців тому +9

    After playing both of these games I can say that WD1 is the better game. It had more hacking tools like controlling the trains, bridges, causing blackout, and of course jamming coms. It was really great. WD2 it did bring some new hacking features but it got rid of most of the hacking from WD1. I mean some of it is there but its just not as impressive. Like blackout is there but its not as dark as WD1 is and even though you can disrupt traffic lights in WD2 its not as impressive. Sure there is like Massive hacks like Vehicle Hack and Communications Hack its still not that great. I mean I don't recall ever using the Mass Vehicle hack because it didn't really help me in any situation. I will say that the hacking in Watch Dogs 2 is a bit overpowered when you can call a Hitman or Police on anyone even the gang members and you can allow them to fight each other, which is useful in missions.
    At the end of the day I think Watch Dogs 1 is still a great game. It had better story and better hacking tools. While it may not having the best driving mechinacs or customization it manages to stand out on its own and I sitll enjoyed it for what it is. Watch Dogs 2 it tries a bit too hard to be like GTA/Saints Row with all the goofy and sany things that are going on that just doesn't make it that interesting. I find Marcus a forgetable character and the story is not memorable. So yeah these games are a mixed bag for me.

    I like Watch Dogs 1 more than Watch Dogs 2 but I feel like WD2 has more replayability. In vanilla WD1, all the side missions and such are just-- complete them and then done. There isn't really much to do in the world besides those random crime events, which are really fun - especially when they work out so cinematically well, and I just find myself having more to do in WD2. I don't like how in WD1 all those gang hideouts and such are restricted to missions-- that limits replayability value imo. That's why I recommend playing WD1 with the Living City mod on PC.

    On pc there is a mod that unlocks the e3 graphics. You see the e3 gameplay was stock game footage, but for some reason they downgraded the graphics before full release. Luckily the option to turn e3 graphics on is in the game files, so a simple mod turns these back on, allowing for excellent graphics without external mods (apart from the one that turns the option on)

    Gotta agree overall. The original game seemed to be so much more thought out then the second, which after all is an attempt to recreate the magic of the fist and which encounters limitations thereby. Furthermore, the development of Lucky and Iraq and their respective groups added an aura of menace coupled with fear of failure that few games attain. Of course, the first suffered thru the media/journalist blitz of negativity for "graphical downgrade" that I personally felt was highly uncalled for, merely twitch bait and a case of "ride the fad".

    The first time I played watchdogs was a few years back when it first came out on games with gold for the Xbox one and I only played the first two or so missions then drop the game completely because I grew bored of it. Earlier this year I picked it up again because I was bored of all of the games that I had completed in the past such as RDR2 and GTA 4. I was a little lost on the story since I loaded up a save file where I was about 10% through the game and I only had little memories of playing but once I got through the first few missions I was hooked and having a blast. The gunplay, the stealth, the side activities and most importantly the story. I didn’t know what to think as Aiden as a character once I first started but as I spent more time with him I began to get very attached to him and he remains one of my favorite characters in gaming right next to Arthur Morgan and master chief. I feel like Ubisoft could’ve done better with the watch dogs series if they would have stuck with the dark and gritty tone of the original watchdogs instead of switching to a light and fun tone of the sequel. Watch dogs two was a good game but the thing it lacked was the completion of Aiden’s story. The watchdog series had so much potential. After playing watchdogs one and watchdogs two I was excited for watch dogs legion earlier this year and once I played through the first few levels of the campaign waiting in excitement for something to happen I later Lost interest in the story and became bored. The biggest feature of watch dogs legion is its biggest flaw sure, it is cool to be able to play as every single character in the game but if everybody is playable nobody is special. You can’t even call the people in watch dogs legion “characters” Because of the shitty voice acting and all of the characters in watch dogs legion act the exact same. One of the main things that makes a game good is a likable protagonist and a good story. If I am playing as someone in a game who I don’t feel attached to and can’t relate to I do not want to play is them, Which single-handedly ruins the experience of Legion. I do like the new DLC bloodline that they added so you can play through the campaign as a character not a robot who can say only 15 lines of unique dialogue. Watch dogs legion doesn’t even feel like a watch dogs game. If you showed me The original watch dogs and watch dogs legion side-by-side I would think they were two different games because of their differences. In The original watchdogs you or Aiden Pearce Chicago Batman who is also a cold-blooded killer trying to protect his city and his family while still also getting Revenge for his biggest loss. In legion you are some random fucking brit that is trying to take down Albion so London can be free with a little Shock pistol and “teamwork”. Watch dogs legion feels like it should be rated T not M. They have tone down the watchdog series so much that it doesn’t even feel recognizable anymore and I feel like Aiden Pearce should have a sequel because he is a very very good written character and Ubisoft just decided to leave him in the dust until recently. The original watchdogs is and remains to be one of my top five favorite games because if it’s replay ability and amazing story it is by far in my opinion the best game in the series.

    Great video again MA! I agree with you on WD1 being better. Just like Aiden more, like the darker tone. I also think Chicago looks better than San Fran. WD2 seems kind of cartoony to me. It's definitely geared to a younger audience I think. I know WD1 got some early bad press, but it's a solid game. My ratings for the WD games are: #1- WD1, #2- Legion, #3 WD2. I know many like WD2 the best, but it's an individual opinion. Thanks again for your honest review!

    Personally love Watch Dogs 1 it amazes me I remember people saying "Aiden isn't a fun character to play as." I mean sure I'd be dancing on rainbows & S***ting glitter after my 6 year old Niece is murdered, and I was the intended Target.
    I love my darker stories simply because they hold no punches.
    Admittedly I can't say too much on 2 simply because I've played about, 2 maybe less hours of i, couldn't get into it, the happier vibe just throws me off completely and the takedowns honestly bug the crap out of me.
    Now this is my own personal thought on the games as a whole including Legion here, I think what makes WD1 better to me is you yourself are not a member of DedSec, allowing you to choose are you more of the Cold Killer Fixer type, or are you the Nicer, more tactical hacker type.
    Plus I am not a fan of the non-lethal weapons just feel meh.
    All in all thank you very much for the video, and for your thoughts.
    Hope everyone is well and is as happy as can be ^^.

    I Platinum both games, there both good but i like Watch Dogs 2 way more. I also prefer Marcus over Aiden and not a lot of people liked Aiden when he first came out and said that was one of the biggest problems with the first game. Also to me watch dogs 2 has a better soundtrack. Also Watch Dogs 2 has better graphics on console and PC haven't had anybody have a problem with the graphics on PC so I don't know what made you think that and I seen a lot of people played on Twitch with no complaints. Watch Dogs 2 looks bright and beautiful and watch dogs 1 especially on Twitch always look to dark and gritty. I definitely agree with you that watch dogs 1 has a better villain and is more personal to the protagonist and the combat is better in Watch Dogs 1 than it is on 2. But we all have our opinions so it's all good.

The few in-depth late game side quests were really immersive for me. particularly the serial killer one and the one where you steal the handgun that is bio-locked. i also really liked getting different trench coats and customizing that way, reminds me of Jedi: Fallen Order and the ponchos, maybe I just like things simple. Playing through WD2 for the first time right now and so far it just feels more...empty. Still Fun! Can't wait to see how it ends!

    When I played through Watch Dogs 1, it was one of my favourite games ever. But Watch Dogs 2 didn't even start to interest me since the beginning. To be fair, I only played the first few missions. But it just doesn't feel as satisfying sneaking around. I'm not too happy with the gadgets you have in WD2. Like yeah they're cool, but I found it a bit annoying to basically have to use them all the time, and I had a difficult time finding out how to approach an area I had to stealth through. Once again, I only played for like an hour or two, but the game just didn't feel like Watch Dogs. I will probably give it another try and play further though.

    • @hxdravfx

      Actually the different gadgets and options are very good ways to diversify the gameplay, by providing different ways of approaching more or less stealthily, because you can complete a large part of the game without killing anyone, thanks to the gadgets, just as much as finishing the game killing everyone by rushing in with your weapons. I personally loved this dual gameplay
