    I know exactly how they could fix this. To recreate Watch Dogs 1 and give us the game we always wanted. The original developer himself said that the game was NOT ready to release, but Ubisoft passed the deadline and they already made so much delays so they had to release what they have and cut so many features...

    I absolutely love the first Watch Dogs and like to come back to it from time to time. I think it's the only game where I really enjoy to just walk around the city instead of running or driving everywhere. One thing that was missing for me was New Game Plus mode or being able to replay main missions. I tried twice to get into WD2 but I gave up both time and couldn't force myself to finish it, I hated the tone of the game and the characters there, I much preferred the darker tone of the first game and especially Aiden Pearce character.

    When they announced that one of WD3 features would be to play as any NPC, I saw the disaster right away. Underdeveloped story, very basic cinematics and generic dialogues written to be said tons of times in every situations. Coming from Ubisoft, it was too massive a concept to be done in a good way.

    • @gameragodzilla
      @gameragodzilla 6 місяців тому

      Ironically Ubisoft has done this before (sorta) with the perma-death rotating group of generic soldiers in the original Tom Clancy games like Rainbow Six and Ghost Recon. However, those games also knew their limitation of only basic storytelling since you can’t have any sort of central protagonist, which was why they presented all their scenarios and stories entirely as if they were real counterterrorism or military operations. You sit down, get a briefing of the mission, select your team and your gear, do the mission, extract. But there’s no room for any sort of genuine storytelling.
      And it is notable that the first Tom Clancy game to try having more of a narrative and be more like a playable Tom Clancy novel rather than just a Milsim is Splinter Cell, and that game did limit you to a specific main character: Sam Fisher, who is a fleshed out character (Michael Ironside even providing a lot more detail and character himself to make Sam more interesting).
      If Watch Dogs Legion wanted to pull off the “play as any NPC”, then it had to make it more realistic and less cinematic and story driven. Instead, it tried to do the usual AAA cinematic storytelling people expect with this wacky idea that is fundamentally contrary to it and failed miserably.

    I really wanted to love WDL but after forcing myself to love it for about a month or so I just can't say too many good things about it. The few good features include the key feature of the game, the ability to recruit any NPC as a playable characters with a list of personal randomised traits. Another good feature is the different relationships characters can have; you can encounter a person you've sent to the hospital before, you can encounter a friend or a relative of a team member of yours, or someone you've saved previously and they'll hate/like you respectively. Last feature worth mentioning is the satisfaction of knocking out an enemy with a non-lethal weapon and then executing them with a lethal gun, but that's a feature many games have, like Hitman.

    It's like Whitelight said: Ubisoft got what they deserved. But it's not what Watch Dogs deserved.
    I still go back to 1 and 2. They're some of my favorite games. But the lies behind 1 cast such a massive shadow that completely veiled the series when Ubisoft decided to make Legion a glorified conceptional demo.
    The series a watch dogs 3 as a soft reboot, but considering this is the Skull and Bones quadruple A company, it's probably never going to happen if it it does, It'll just be another mediocre downgrade of a game.
    Excellent video!

    Another point I want to mention is the UI of Watch Dogs Legion is so terrible that it almost looks like a mobile game. It is unbelievable cuz Watch_Dogs has a very decent UI and Watch_dogs 2 is peak in glitch art.

    Watch Dogs 2 is my favorite. It's so good that I dare put it in my top 5 favorite games. It has the most beautiful scenery, the best cars, the most cars. You have the most character customizations in terms of clothes and the open world just feels so real. Watch Dogs 1 was really good. Very good story and immersive gameplay but not much to do outside of the main missions and a few side activities. But Watch Dogs Legion.... I never really liked from the start. I played it again and got a slightly better understanding of the story but it still wasn't my favorite. I'm gonna play it again on PS5 and see if I feel any different but I doubt I will.

    The problem with Legion is the tiny and suffocating map and the unholy amount of missing features from previous games. Put the recruitment system into a game like Watch Dogs 2 and you got yourself the best Watch Dogs game ever created.

    What the game companies FAIL to understand is that the sales of a game are based on the quality of the PREVIOUS game in the franchise. Watch Dogs 2 sold less than 1 because 1 had that huge scandal linked to it. WD2 is light years ahead of 1 and especially Legion.
    WD1 = Liked it a lot.
    WD2 = Loved it, one of the GOAT.
    WD3 = A struggle to even finish it.

    I wish Ubisoft Reflections would be able to make a new Driver game. It feels like they let the series die despite how comparable it used to be to GTA.
    But i think the team is probably far different now than the one that made Driver

    The Watch Dogs series suffered a lot of misfortunes, mixed with undeserved & Ubisoft messing it up.
    While Watch Dogs 2 was good, it robbed Aiden Pearce from Watch Dogs 1 of a proper continuation to his story as there's so much potential they can do with a his complex character, but because people at the time thought Aiden to be too boring & not easy to like despite having a good story & themes that compliment the character, we end having Watch Dogs 2 be a completely standalone sequel set in a completely different tone & with completely new & different characters. While Watch Dogs 1 & 2 are great in their own rights & show range of how the hacking world of Watch Dogs can be, from the dark grim rainy streets of Chicago to the bright colorful sunny scenery of San Francisco, we still didn't get a chance to properly continue the story of Aiden Pearce, could've either been in a DLC expansion of Watch Dogs 2 instead of being a small cameo or instead of doing the overly-ambitious Watch Dogs Legion, they make a Watch Dogs 3 focusing back on Aiden Pearce's journey as the Vigilante/the Fox given the ending of his story in Watch Dogs 1 left room for where he'll go. They could alternate the storylines between Aiden Pearce & DedSec SFO gang in each entry or if they want, just make a Watch Dogs 3 with Aiden & the DedSec SFO gang (essentially, Watch Dogs Legion Bloodline should've been the 3rd Watch Dogs game we got). And it sucks how Legion turned out cause the devs seem to know that Watch Dogs might be thrown away by Ubisoft & not properly learn their lesson after Legion, so they made Bloodline a send off for BOTH Aiden Pearce & the DedSec SFO gang (Aiden literally retires from being the Vigilante/the Fox & the DedSec SFO gang have already disbanded). Bloodline was great & the only reason Legion is worth a discount
    To be honest, it's a good thing I waited out till Bloodline to come out as playing as Aiden Pearce & Wrench in the base game story is what hard carried me in enjoying the base game despite how bland & boring the base game story is. With how Ubisoft messed the series over, we had a great time with the characters of Watch Dogs 1 & 2, but we never had enough time to spend & felt too short...

    The first two games are tied as my 2nd favorite games of all time (#1 being RDR2) I've written like 5 essays about how much I love WD2 on other UA-cam videos but they are absolutely amazing games and this could have been a PHENOMENAL trilogy but unfortunately Legion was a HUGE disappointment. The DLC Bloodline was excellent I'll say that much I loved Wrench & Aiden together and playing as Wrench for more than just one mission was the best. I'm currently replaying the trilogy and once I get to Legion I'm gonna do Bloodline first then play the main game as only Aiden and Wrench. I'm hoping the Watch Dogs movie does good and we get Watch Dogs 4 and Ubi realizes that this franchise still has potential.
