It’s my favorite of the series. Lots of ppl love the first one the most, which is amazing in its own right and even more after mods. But the 2nd game made me feel more like a hacker tied into that technocratic no privacy smart city 🌃 setting the most. The 3rd game, Legion never sucked me in so I don’t really have much to say about it. 2, is the most immersive of the lot.
You just made me download it again, loved this game so much playing through it, first one was good but this one made my jaw drop with how good it looks even now, what like 8 years later.
Enjoyed story mode better then gta5. If the online had similar features to gta online where u can collect 100s of cars, own multiple businesses and more it would have been bigger the gta on every level.
Controversial but I still hold it to this day: WD2 looks better than RDR2. They're actually quite similar looking but WD2 managed to attain a certain lighting and shading that replicates so perfectly the way California looks IRL. At times you just look at the game and go: "damn, this game really looks like real life if I don't stare for too long" this doesn't happen with RDR2 due to the lighting and shading they used, that's the key to realistic graphics and it's why that unrecorded game uses resources like the bodycam filter and certain lighting and shadows. Point is? WD2 was definitely one of the best looking games of the previous generation. They really fixed what happened with WD1
I love Watch Dogs 2, but there are some gameplay things that bother me, and I wish someone modded them. For instance, I don't like the driving mechanic. I wish someone made a mod that makes it more realistic. Better engine & tire sounds, more realistic damage, and smoother steering.
@@L321 Ubisoft just can't make a good driving system for some reason. Even their racing games feel awkward to me. The driving in 'WD2' is not terrible, but it's also not very good. My main issue with it is that steering is not precise enough. The stick on the controller is not utilized properly, so you can't be as precise and smooth as in some of the other games like GTA V. And the other thing is the damage system & physics. They are way too arcadey and unrealistic for me.
A lot of people said that the story should be more darker and deeper like the first one, I personally feel that It was great to go with a more vibrant look into Dedsec. If Ubisoft kept doing dark setting after dark setting, it would just feel like copy and paste and eventually get old, taking the series towards a different direction would help possibly gain a bigger audience. WD1 has the best story, WD2 has the best gameplay, WD1 focuses on personal beef between two individuals( unlike Bad Blood) and WD2 focuses on a issue that can hurt many . Both are great games in the end💯 but it’s not for everybody
Oh ! i start playing it again just yesterday and the game is really worth playing now , like best graphics , story , exploring and roaming , all is good and dont forget taking selfies 🤳 they are the best with random people lol
Yes, it's one of my favorites! A couple other open world games that you sure don't want to miss is Days Gone and Immortals Fenyx Rising. Sadly, they don't make games this good anymore.
Living in SF my whole life just made me love this game even more, Im glad it was actually a good game as well. They definitely did an amazing job depicting SF. Probably helps that they have a studio there as well so their attention to detail was outstanding.
I started to play the game again today to get the last achievement the final showd0wn. If someone that has already unlocked it could help me get it i would be grateful:)
Nah bro played it for 2 weeks now mostly online but it gets boring because of the game mod its 2 much of the same police chase is unrealistic 20 min chase is crazy? Can not continu bounty hunter without getting rid of the cops is just stupid
YES WD 2 was SO much fun. WD4? PLEASE lol. This is a constantly overlooked franchise and is one of the best original franchises I have seen. SO much potential if UbiSoft put as much work into this as they do AC, of which I am also a huge fan, it would be amazing. It is the modern day AC. The only drawbacks were the driving needed some polish and the story lacked the hard hitting feel of the 1st one. It felt more like mischief than the deeper, and more relatable purpose Aiden had. It is still one of the best open worlds to play in.
Tried it a few months ago and couldn't stand the parkour. Since that was half the reason i got the game, i uninstalled it straight away Best movement in any game is still classic Assassin's Creed, especially AC1
If any of you has the light flickering issue with Nvidia cards, do know that there is a fix for that now, with multiplayer included. You can find the tutorial on youtube, it's pretty simple. "Watch Dogs 2 Flickering Fix 4000 Series NVIDIA RTX working Multiplayer" is the name of the video.
just got watchdogs 2 gold edition for $10 on the Ubisoft Store 😎 Ubisoft somehow does MASSIVE sales on their own platform compared to steam or epic games
I love this game, and i had played this game in my laptop but i only completed 4 missons till that smart car mission! After that don't know the game isn't opening... It sucks after loading! I uninstalled and reinstalled the whole game but still the same issue... Searched many ways to solve the problem but it didn't helped me, so i decided i will play this game in ps5 or another consoles .. BTW THIS GAME IS BEST BEST BEST.... YOU SHOULD ALSO PLAY THIS! ❤
Watch Dogs 2 had an almost 80 percent drop off of players initially compared to Watch Dogs 1... of course that has likely increased alot with it now being free on PS Plus and all the positive promotion its been receiving turning it into a bit of a "cult classic" which is amazing and all the praise is deserved but its so sad to me the potential this franchise had and what it could've achieved, Ubisoft really stole that from us with how they literally scammed people into buying the first game.
Watch Dogs 2 was a fantastic game i wish we got a Watch Dogs 4 based in New york with the WD2 controls but thats not gonna happen . Ubisoft will be shut down over couple years through the bad sale numbers i think =(
Yes. download this and put the files into where your game is installed, it will fix the flickering. drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hqeJD_CYbwXLILst9S-7ac5htk6UOP8l?usp=drive_link
Ubisoft, as always, nail the setting and the world is brilliantly built. The hacking you can do is the best but I prefer the story of the first game. We don't talk about Legion...
San Francisco is big on LGBTQ, so it makes sense as it is, it also shouted out people with autism(Josh) it’s kinda a way of saying "we acknowledge you guys" . Legion had a great concept , the delivery was just poor.
In my opinion, Watch Dogs Legion is not a real Watch Dog game. Well, I think we should get a real Watch Dogs 3 and it should be set in Tokyo or generally in Japan or Korea, because the tech would look really good there.😅😅😅
It’s 85% off this week for only 8 dollars and this video still isn’t convincing me to get it lol it just doesn’t look fun and they fooled me once with watch dogs 1 I’m also not much of a stealth player…It’s a shame because i want to like this game
The game has an extremely poor resolution in Xbox series X. They absolutely destroyed the resolution AND the gaming experience as a result in order to achieve '60fps'.
You mentioned the beautiful state of the art graphics, but you didn't mention that you can run it maxed out at *NATIVE* resolution at your monitor's refresh rate easily ! It doesn't have DLSS, or Frame Generation or any of that bo11ocks that today's AAA games require to run at 60fps !
Well i heard there making a new watch dogs game called Watch dogs Truth after Watch dogs Legion but the bad news is Watch dogs Truth wont be on Consoles and thats really bad so they did this then do a Remastered for watch dogs 2 Ubisoft going down big time 😂😂
its better than gta 5 as you can hack anything and go to wherever with all gta elements but just one downgrade that you cannot swim underwater and poor driving. story is better than gta 5. every mission is harder than gta 5.
@@jaxontheboss2319 it's missions are so unique and hard ,i am saying that I enjoyed it. But in gta 5 its single player is really easy compared to previous titles gta 3 , vice city and san andreas and gta 4
I find this game boring unless you enjoy parkour or walking around and hacking, as I find there is no reason to play missions as it’s hardly rewarding and the story isn’t interesting, bland game imo
As someone who played watchdogs2, that game is a 6/10. It has good graphics, improved hacking from the original, better parkour and driving. But the story was horrible, the protagonist was bland and empty, the characters were bland and empty I still remember the death of Horacio and how quickly they moved on compared to when Clara died in the part 1 I genuinely felt it and also the gunplay was so bad it was as though the game didn't want u shooting at all. I can go on and on but honestly, the part 2 is just a prettier game and that's all part 1 was the best

Only the real ones know how good Watch Dogs 2 truly is...
Only the real ones know how cringe the story was...
Okay okay I admit it, it was funny. But hollow none the less.
I tried playing it after the first one it’s just too corny I couldn’t do it
Still playing it to this day 🔥😎
It was great💫still is
True
The graphics of Watch Dogs 2, released in 2016, are genuinely impressive
ikr its actually crazy!
No DEI, that's the secret.

I think watch dogs meant to be more arcady rather than realistic
I just started playing this game about a week ago and im genuinely surprised at how amazing the game is even though its 8 years old
The fact you made another video about this 2 months ago just shows how good this game is. I’m gonna start making videos on it frr
Haha yeah true, I actually really enjoy playing it in my spare time tbf
@ Extremely underrated. Definitely need a 4th game
Did anyone else buy Watch Dogs 2 after seeing this?
Already had it
im about to
Going to steam rn
Im thinking about it. it's only 10€ now on xbox and I've never played it. but Ill think of it until tomorrow.
@Joel00000 buy it it's good

As somebody who has beaten story mode the mission "looking glass" could be EMOTIONAL
One of the only single player games ive ever stuck all the way through and beat
deffo!

You should do a video with similar open worlds, like sleeping dogs, Mafia and other wd games

Playing these days! Absolute banger !!
it is sooo good, 72 hours deep and i just discovered showdown and unlocked all the rc upgrades. The running animation has me hooked.
Coming from assassins creed origins the parkour seems insane Unity also had transcendent parkour especially made in 2014
I just started playing it and I love it looking for some teammates too
I've been playing this game since 2019 and still can't stop
Just started my first play through last night. I can’t believe I slept on this game so long and am only on the third mission!
60 fps only on xbox ps5 still locked at 30
Thanks for the info,I own both but ill get it on xbox😊
Been a favorite of mine since 2016. I bought it at release, and have put over 500 hours into it :)

Ngl I downloaded on PS5 plus it yesterday and it’s fire 🔥
This is not one of the, this is the most underrated open world games of all time for sure!!!
100%
What if ubisoft, just make a part 2 on this game
Watch Dogs 2 was one of the best game I've ever played.
I finished the Game and it took me a year and a Half to Finish it and it was worth it
Will definitely give it a try.
Thanks
Hope you enjoy

One of my favorite games period🔥
I don't like the "teen revolution" vibes of this game, WD1 was darker and way deeper than this
The City is 10/10 as always in Ubisoft games
I think they did that because people complained that the first one was too dark and boring. I like both tbh. First game has better story in my view.
Watch dogs 2 interesting beautiful legendary open world game ♡

Its only $9 on Xbox rn...I bought just because I live in SF
seriously one of the last good things ubisoft ever released
Has anyone problems with the flickering in WD2 ? I can`t play it with all the shadows flickering like hell....... :(((((
Yes. download this and put the files into where your game is installed, it will fix the flickering. drive.google.com/drive/folders/1hqeJD_CYbwXLILst9S-7ac5htk6UOP8l?usp=drive_link
If only the game was as open source as GTA V, we could have different mods such as change cars with realistic models and so on.
Finished the whole campaign 😢
Tried playing it but couldn't get into it
I just downloaded it. I will be off next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. I will see if it’s worth the $8 😂 that I paid for it on PS5?
Ubisoft, as always, nail the setting and the world is brilliantly built.
The hacking you can do is the best but I prefer the story of the first game.
We don't talk about Legion...
Legion had the potential to be the best watch dog but it fail 🤦🏽♂️ they should of never kill dalton
Wish there was 60fps for PS5. I would play this game everyday smh
They need to giva an option on field of view
Watch Dogs 2 Graphics > GTA 5 Graphics
Never knew it was based in the Bay. Just bought it since its on sale
Awesome
Watch dogs 3 will come close to gta6 but not better than GTA 6 since gta5 already makes better sales than watch dogs 2
We aren’t getting WD4
2 months later a new video about the same game and it even has the same length lol
But some missions are also quite difficult. I'm currently playing it on DSR in 4k.
Because of the stealth?
@@L321 Yes, you have to get used to it
Crazy to think this game is made by Ubisoft... they cut support for it 😅 ngl 2016 was crazy ambitious
Ikr!
The game despite having lgbt representation isn't woke like legion, i wish it had the tone of wd1 but my god it's so good as is.
San Francisco is big on LGBTQ, so it makes sense as it is, it also shouted out people with autism(Josh) it’s kinda a way of saying "we acknowledge you guys" . Legion had a great concept , the delivery was just poor.
Jeeez so now games are Woke for being realistic… you do realize SF is the Bluest City in the US?
@jaxontheboss2319 that's what I meant. Ubi didn't go overboard with wd 2.
Does it actually cost $50
If anyone is still playing this online on Xbox one in 2024 hmu I'm installing it
🔥
Yes
WD2 graphics are alot better then gta5 and only released 3yrs after. People know ubi games but their open world designs and graphics are amazing 👏
In my opinion, Watch Dogs Legion is not a real Watch Dog game.
Well, I think we should get a real Watch Dogs 3 and it should be set in Tokyo or generally in Japan or Korea, because the tech would look really good there.😅😅😅
I get up to 450 fps on ps4 for 7 seconds
Its good but the missions are just too complicated
