Bro watch dogs 2 was soo fun. Character development is nice especially for the main character. I love how there are different missions where you work with different characters to learn more about each character. Fun, vibrant and very intriguing mechanics overall. Also very satisfying parkour!
The reason I always go back to this game is the world. San Francisco is gorgeous and so atmospheric. The people feel real, the hacking is so well integrated and I think it’s miles better than both the first one and Legion
I really enjoyed the gameplay, it all felt smooth, from animations to gunplay to parkour to driving. The story felt okay though, it felt it was aimlessly written but it had excellent set-pieces + it had a fantastic city.
I was only vaguely interested in thr game before I played it, I got a collector edition with the Marcus statue when it was on sale after Christmas one year, I got it for $7 because I had a $50 gift card. I am so happy that I got it, I love the game, I had more fun playing this game than I had playing GTAV. Ubisoft has become one of my favourite game companies.
@@campkira yeah I played the game for two years with barely playing another game at all and I still never finished the story. And why can’t you can the police or clan Kelly members on anyone in wdl
@@Sp1n1985 Same. I never even got Marcus inside the restricted areas unless absolutely necessary. Most of the time, the mission went like "use the drone to scout out the area and solve puzzles (if any)" > "call in some gang members to create chaos" > "while the guards are distracted by the chaos, send the RC jumper to grab/reach whatever I need to grab/reach".
The story was trash i rly cant remember somthing from the story im not saying the game is trash cuz i liked the gameplay and the missons but storyline was trash
I stopped playing Watch Dogs 1 half way through and didn't return for a month. Watch Dogs 2 I played every day during high school until I beat it and still return to play it to this day.
I'm currently playing it lol ...had it since launch but my backlog is a killer ....love how alive the city feels like npcs doing so much more than just walking up a block aimlessly
Probably one of my favorite games, if you get it with gold edition on eBay for like another 5$ you get 2x the game content which there’s already plenty of
No, it doesn't. The only thing this game did better than other games were the interactions with the AI. That's it. The other thing is hacking with gadgets, but no other AAA game actually attempted to do this, so it's just the theme of the game which we can't compare. All other things about this game that exist in other games are better in the other games.
@@ensco7 of course this game isn't gonna compete with games like GTA, it didn't have enough time in production, but considering how many times ubisoft fucked up its good to mention how little they fucked up in this game. Yea the game isn't perfect but it is a really fun and enjoyable game with plenty of gameplay.
@@erenunal9733 I agree tbh, but you have to be really into the hacker thing though and you must have strong nerves to ignore all the hipster cringe in this game. Taking that into consideration, I think this game is where it should be, not underrated nor under-appreciated. And the fanbase isn't too small, just look at the hype about Legion.
I personally loved both games a ton. But online everyone seemed to like the setting of San Francisco more than the original. I hope London can be better than both😈
As someone actually from the Bay Area, WD2 was a near perfect recreation. Yeah it's a bit exaggerated, and it's definitely missing some parts, but it still does a damn good job recreating the place. Ubisoft spent so much time putting in these little details that only people from here will notice. For example, if you go to Lake Merritt in the game, there will be an area occupied by Umeni. Right next to that area, is a mural of the lake that I kid you not is there in real life, and looks the EXACT same. So yeah, WD2 gets a bay arean badge of approval.
I had such an organic experience with this game. Example. I accidentally punched some npc in the back of the head right next to another female npc and the guy turned around and said wtf? And the woman next to him laughed out loud. ...it felt so real I died laughing.
I bought Watch Dogs 2 for $10 and found myself engaged deeply by the story. i love driving around and seeing all the vibrant use of colours. it's really pretty and the illustration of open world gaming in this game was really well done 🥺 i love it !!
The fact that ubisoft made wd2 in 2 years still amazes me. Also the fact that ubisoft took a chance and tried with this Game and that it worked is awesome. They easily could have phoned it in because it's a huge developer and people would have bought it anyway
@@1201Filmz just saying you can go watch nerd 3 play it he got an early copy and he walks about and talks about how good it is I was worried as well till I watch that video it looks fun
I don't give a shit about the characters/plot mostly, the satirical aspects are fun, it's smarter than I expected. but the best part is how you can just stir up chaos, create gang fights, make crazy traffic crashes, etc.
WD 1 feels like "Taken" and "Password Swordfish" had a video game baby. A grim focused story with a protagonist who did feel like a ruthless guy going on a killing spree to revange his family while WD2 feet like the TV shi "Community" meets the movie "Hackers" Level design and progression might be much improved with its sequel but I'd always prefer Aidan Pearce and the from and gritty atmosphere
I loved both games, 1 and 2! I don't think the first Watch Dogs was bad at all. If I had any gripes with the first one it would be that there were too many "side activities" that were just collectibles; go to a place, maybe solve a very, very basic puzzle, then go somewhere else and do it again. The only enjoyable collectible was the one where you have to point a camera at the right location to reveal a QR code when the buildings line up correctly. Also, it was a bit jarring how Aiden was supposed to be "the good guy" but you go around destroying the city and killing people. The character motivation didn't line up with the actual gameplay. Everything else was wonderful, and the city especially was beautiful! And the chases to avoid police detection, and then throw them off, were really rewarding 😁 As for Watch Dogs 2; that game is fantastic in almost every way. The only gripe I have with that one is that the DedSec characters are pretty annoying! Everything else is amazing. The world especially; it's even more beautiful and interesting than the first. They did an even better job of having very distinct areas of the map with different features and architectural styles, and I loved all the bright colours! And instead of repetitive collectibles they had much more interesting side-activities, with challenging puzzles.
Recently been playing more of wd2 it’s sucha unique game it’s not that big but the feel of it gives off sucha charm I love the graphics the npcs are funny too
I was one who didnt get this game right away, but I wish I did. I got plat on this a couple years ago even though I really wasnt a fan of its supporting characters. San Fran was so much fun to play around in and Marcus was great as well
So funny that you put this out. I got this on a fluke at Wal-Mart for 20 bucks a month or so back, i didn't realize that there is more game behind a fucking paywall! Besides that i am having LOADS of fun. I was born in Oakland and lived in the East Bay for 23 years, so it was nice to see a place i knew for once rendered in a game.
My favorite thing about this game are the characters. Yes the only reason I bought it can gave it a try was because the main character is black but I really Loved Marcus and the other members of the group. The dialog and conversations were funny and I could see myself hanging out with that group of people. To bad they killed off Horatio before they could even give him any development... #riphoratio
@@unoreversecard8220 exactly, i have never in my life noticed a characters or persons skin colour then made a decision based on it 😅 pretty sad if you ask me
I really liked the story of WD2 it actually really resonated with me because I'm into cybersecurity and programming. I also found the characters strange at first but then really funny when I got used to them.
Bought it when it came out but for some reason didn't play it. Started because of the Series x fps boost and I'm 10 hours in. Love this game, sad I didn't give it the time earlier.
I've waited for year for Legion and this game is gonna be in my memory forever. Most fun I've ever had with my friends. I made new friends in this game and lost others but it overall was milked by my best friend and me.
I love that they added the sneaking and stealth approach, WD2 is a full stealth action game to me. I've enjoyed its gameplay more than first one, but I understand that people are talking WD2's story is weak.
@@Official_Loafalthelilly Sure it has. But, It's not non-leathal way. WD2 has plenty of non-leathal approaches and even no KO ones. Full stealth is my type.
Thats because objectively tone wise it's more serious and grounded in reality, WD2 is not grounded in reality at all, the tones of WD2 are ALL over the place, with a characters death JUST to further the plot rather than add some backstory to the protagonist
The only thing I didn't like about Watch Dogs 2 is that the conflict didn't feel personal. It was hard for me to be convinced that DedSec was doing these hacktivism things when they're very joyful in their spare time. Heck, one of them dies and the next day they're fucking okay. They didn't feel like activists who truly want change. They're just a bunch hipsters who do it for fun. Marcus, especially, didn't resonate with me at all. His character is so joyful and lighthearted that I couldn't even bear to use guns or any lethal methods during missions. The game is extremely narrative-driven, but its story isn't its strongest aspect. The gameplay, especially stealth and gadgets, are great. The driving is okay, at least better than GTA IV driving lol. The open world is the best aspect for me because San Francisco is a place very close to my heart and Ubisoft didn't fail at capturing the beauty of it.
I think if they took most of the assets and mechanics from Watch Dogs 2 and made a game about working up the ranks as a member of one of the gangs in the city while you take over illegal businesses and territory, then Ubisoft would have their own serious contender to GTA and Saints Row.
Watch Dogs 2 is one of my all time favourite games I must have played it about 15 times. Marcus was a fantastic character to play as. With no main protagonist and all the microtransactions they'll no doubt cram in (and therefore grind), I am not the slightest bit interested in WD Legion. Far Cry 5 tried to get you to spend money but you didn't need to, Far Cry New Dawn made the game feel like it was pay to win so I couldn't even get into it And don't even get me started on Assassin's Creed making Odyssey a massive grind purely so they can push time savers etc. I played the whole game but the grind is so obvious that you can feel it so I don't think I will bother with the Viking one (especially since the main characters and their voices seem so flat or forced combined with the fact that all the faces have dead eyes). It is a shame because Kassandra was actually another of my favourite characters that I have played. Bethesda and Ubisoft have gone from my favourite game companies to ones whose greed is unable to be satisfied and therefore cannot be trusted. sorry to rant but it really sucks when you're not looking forward to sequels of your favourite games
I had to few times download, play for 1st scene in cTOs and uninstall. But this time, after I push up to meet colleagues in HQ, I cant stop. This game worth every seconds.
wd1 and 2 are god tier we all know but if you give the trashcan legion some actual time just playing with the combat with instant gun takedowns is just such a blast and being loud/stealthy because it’s way more open to do things then 1 or 2 it’s just sad that the ONLY thing better in legion then the other games is the hand to hand combat and some takedowns
@@iceman1287 Like what? I actually loved how inteligent he was like when he just hacked the place that had his sister kidnaped intead of risking going there and getting both of them killed. And at least the first game had a story, part 2 had a bunch of disconected arcs that made the story feel worthless with characters that where just steriotypes and nothing more.
I see your point, I mean grew up with both these games I even played the first watch dogs alot after the second game, there both great in their own way.
As an average-to-below-average gamer I found WD2 boring af, the driving dynamics on a PC were horrible (they were a big part of several missions) and the stupid hack puzzles ruined the continuity of the missions imo.
I definitely skipped this game in deference of waiting for Cyberpunk. What a mistake that was. Playing this now since it's on game pass, and having a blast. I love the sandbox elements and the chaos you can stir up.
Yeah man don't know why. Maybe WD meant to be played long. Most of reviewer play the game fastly, it'll become boring. They should just enjoy the world in WD game. I personally love the series, in WD2 you can even finish the game without killing. It's pretty rare in today game.
I got it a long time ago, actually liked the first one better but then again I haven't finished the second one. Will plan on doing it but guys/gals, is this really a good game?
First one was so much better. The new atmosphere is great but the new game play is boring and I find the NPCs are now either very oblivious or teleport in impossible ways
I was excited to cosplay as *’Aiden Pearce’* this Halloween (I was gonna flex with the mask/gaiter 😷 and all *#STOPTHESPREAD* *#SAVELIVES* ) but I couldn’t find that coat he wears smhlmao. *#SOCIALDISTANCETHISHALLOWEEN*
I really enjoyed Watch Dogs 2 but I preferred the first game more I know it was flawed but the more gritty atmosphere & also I preferred Aiden Pearce as a character even if I am the only one that does
@@dumitriman Yeah it is I played it again last month concentrating on getting focus to max asap and played more out attack it's great throwing grenades then using focus to shoot it mid air. I have forgotten name of channel but there is a game who plays it like John Wick if you not seen it search for it makes the game totally different
EXACTLY!!! I was about to get platinum, but then I realized I got the demo of the game where you do the first few missions and they don't count towards trophies, meaning I would have to restart everything on a save where I did every mission and bought every item in the game. Smh.

wd1 and 2 are god tier we all know but if you give the trashcan legion some actual time just playing with the combat with instant gun takedowns is just such a blast and being loud/stealthy because it’s way more open to do things then 1 or 2 it’s just sad that the ONLY thing better in legion then the other games is the hand to hand combat and some takedowns
people driving a car: Just drives
Me:OOH I CAN DO SICK TRICK EXPLODING MY MOTORCYCLE UP YAY
Multiplayer especially the show down mode Is the reason I’m still playing 😁
The first one was waaaaaaay better in story and character
You mean that character Aiden Pearce oh, the guy who made the stupidest decisions ever in a game, going to have to disagree with you there on that.
@@iceman1287 Like what? I actually loved how inteligent he was like when he just hacked the place that had his sister kidnaped intead of risking going there and getting both of them killed.
And at least the first game had a story, part 2 had a bunch of disconected arcs that made the story feel worthless with characters that where just steriotypes and nothing more.
Damien literally gave Aiden a solid lead on how to find the people who got his niece killed and he rejected it like WTF.
@@iceman1287 Damien was also the main antagonist, a complete sociopath and the dude that ruined Aiden's life, that's how a rational person would react
I see your point, I mean grew up with both these games I even played the first watch dogs alot after the second game, there both great in their own way.
I got part one and two for $13AUD yesterday so I'm happy with the purchase even though I haven't played yet. If anything my collection grew
As an average-to-below-average gamer I found WD2 boring af, the driving dynamics on a PC were horrible (they were a big part of several missions) and the stupid hack puzzles ruined the continuity of the missions imo.
i personally prefer the First one over 2, mainly because it took itself more seriously
I am gonna play this soon.
I definitely skipped this game in deference of waiting for Cyberpunk. What a mistake that was. Playing this now since it's on game pass, and having a blast. I love the sandbox elements and the chaos you can stir up.
This always happens, criticism on release then praised a few years after
Yeah man don't know why. Maybe WD meant to be played long. Most of reviewer play the game fastly, it'll become boring. They should just enjoy the world in WD game. I personally love the series, in WD2 you can even finish the game without killing. It's pretty rare in today game.
Facts tho when I got it on release I loved it
I loved the parkour in watch dogs 2 so I hope it will be in watch dogs legion (tomorrow)
It will be, but apparently not as good
Why is there 35 dislikes? This video didn't have any offensive parts. They didn't even clickbait either.
I got it a long time ago, actually liked the first one better but then again I haven't finished the second one. Will plan on doing it but guys/gals, is this really a good game?
Yes.
It’s story is MEH.
But the gameplay is definitely worth playing
Watch dogs legion is FIRE
First one was so much better. The new atmosphere is great but the new game play is boring and I find the NPCs are now either very oblivious or teleport in impossible ways
2:31 that aged poorly
watch dogs 2 was tons of fun
Pretty sure watchdogs take place in the same universe as assassins creed
I loved The First Watch dogs but it's not perfect WD2 however improves alot.
Game was amazing, great world with a warm vibe!
Watch dogs 2😍😍
I was excited to cosplay as *’Aiden Pearce’* this Halloween (I was gonna flex with the mask/gaiter 😷 and all *#STOPTHESPREAD* *#SAVELIVES* ) but I couldn’t find that coat he wears smhlmao. *#SOCIALDISTANCETHISHALLOWEEN*
"Uploaded 4 minutes ago." I'm early af
I really enjoyed Watch Dogs 2 but I preferred the first game more I know it was flawed but the more gritty atmosphere & also I preferred Aiden Pearce as a character even if I am the only one that does
The combat in the first game was epic!
@@dumitriman Yeah it is I played it again last month concentrating on getting focus to max asap and played more out attack it's great throwing grenades then using focus to shoot it mid air. I have forgotten name of channel but there is a game who plays it like John Wick if you not seen it search for it makes the game totally different
This game is amazing
It bored me a LOT.
The city wasn't alive, shit got old quickly to me.
Thank god. I ain't the only one who didn't like the game.
Great review :).
love both games my favorite Ubisoft game bye far
My fav game of all time
The only thing bad about Watch Dogs 2 is the unavailability of new game plus
EXACTLY!!! I was about to get platinum, but then I realized I got the demo of the game where you do the first few missions and they don't count towards trophies, meaning I would have to restart everything on a save where I did every mission and bought every item in the game. Smh.
a play through of the first one to legion anyone?
I would say ingenuity
