    Ubisoft Toronto's 'Play as Anyone' system results in the publisher's most unique open-world game in years. Just don't take it too seriously.

    Watch Dogs Legion is a very good game with which you don’t get bored! The ability to recruit an infinite number of characters with different abilities is enjoyable and the universe and neat, whether it is the story or the characters. This episode, without being a revolution, separates itself from the two previous ones and offers a fun experience that we do not want to let go. A single desire: to play to recruit activists, to hack a thousand systems and to liberate London.

    Watch Dogs: Legion elevates the formula allowing to control every character in the game, a unique and complex game mechanic with many possibilities... That doesn't go well with the narrative. But still, it's a fantastic action, stealth and hacking open world game.

    Watch Dogs Legion promises a futuristic London, where you can play as everybody. Unfortunately, it has a lot of flaws that should be perfected in an already delayed game.

    The latest Watch Dogs does seem ripe for criticism, but at its core is a solid, fun title that is yet to leave the disk tray. Cruising through the London suburbs is a thoroughly enjoyable experience with a lot of replay-ability, if only to use the games camera mode to snap a selfie with a landmark. Some of the missions are also creatively designed and structured in a way that will live long in the memory and be the talking points with any friends on the fence about purchasing. The biggest downfall of Watch Dogs: Legion is the promise of something more. With no real incentive for recruitment outside characters given in missions, it remains very much a title for the generation. With a little more thought put into the mechanics and gameplay, focusing on how they could really have been revolutionised, this could have been an experience as future-proof as the world portrayed within it.

    Watch Dogs: Legion is more of the same, albeit with more technical problems. Even the most diehard of Watch Dogs fans should wait for a patch or two before jumping in.

    Watch Dogs Legion is unfortunately a boring, middling game without much creativity to speak of.

    Zum Anfang: Ich denke durchaus,dass meine bewertung gerechtfertigt ist.

    Das spielprinzip von watch dogs legion ist sehr gut. Die Idee, dass    Zum Anfang: Ich denke durchaus,dass meine bewertung gerechtfertigt ist.

    Das spielprinzip von watch dogs legion ist sehr gut. Die Idee, dass man wirklich JEDEN charakter in der Welt spielen kann ist fantastisch. Jedoch habe ich beim spielen das gefühl, dass das meiste geld in dieses feature geflossen ist. Ich habe das Spiel auf einer ps4 slim gespielt und dort war die grafik echt nicht gut. Andere spiele wie horizon zero dawn oder der vorgänger watch dogs 2 haben das deutlich besser hingekriegt. Auch die technik lässt zu wünschen übrig. Leider ist das spiel während des testens sehr oft abgestürzt, autos sind in der luft festgehangen oder die sprachausgabe war verbuggt. Es gibt relativ lange ladezeiten in dem game. das beste beispiel dafür ist, wenn man das versteck von dedsec verlässt. Im vorgänger gab es keine ladezeiten, wenn man das versteck verlassen oder betreten hat.
    In diesem ableger gibt es diese aus irgendeinem grund, was meiner meinung nach ein rückschritt ist.
    Nun kommen wir aber zu den positiven aspekten, die meiner meinung nach überwiegen. Das spiel macht verdammt viel spaß . Auch wenn die spielwelt , story und aufgaben relativ einseitig sind, macht das spiel sehr viel spaß. Dies liegt an dem neuen feature, dass man jeden npc spielen kann. Ubisoft hat es wirklich geschafft es so zu machen, dass es gut funktioniert. Es macht einfach spaß auf die strasse zu gehen und sich einen neuen rekruten zu suchen. Ich empfehle das spiel mit dem death mode zu spielen. Dieser sorgt dafür, dass gefallene agenten nicht eingesperrt, sondern tot sind. So baut man eine bindung zu seinen agenten auf und versucht ernsthaft, dass sie nicht sterben. Das fahren und schiessen fühlt sich deutlich besser an als im vorgänger. Die story lässt zwar zu wünschen übrig, jedoch
    gibt es wirklich eine interressante figur: die KI Bagley ist ein sehr interressanter charakter und führt durch seine ironischen bemerkungen zu dem ein oder anderen lacher.

    Alles in allem denke ich, dass das spiel eher für die ps5 oder xbox series x optimiert ist.
    Ich hoffe , dass Ubisoft die technik in den griff bekommt, da es aktuell in einem katastrophalen zustand ist. Ich habe sehr großen spass mit dem spiel und ich glaube all, die den vorgänger gefeiert haben, die fühlen mit mir.    … Expand

    It's pretty average. By now I've played about 20 hours and seen most of the game. Most missions require you to drive to part a of the map,It's pretty average. By now I've played about 20 hours and seen most of the game. Most missions require you to drive to part a of the map, hack some stuff , drive to part b of the map, hack some stuff maybe drive to part c and hack some stuff aswell. The highlights are probably the ending missions to the games storylines which are way too far apart from each other, which gives me flashbacks to mafia 3, which also had massive potential but ended up disappointing due to its boring and repetitive game design just like legion.… Expand

    So Boring!!!
    fine gameplay and graphics but the story and characterization is the worst part.
    full of repetitive missions and dialogues,    So Boring!!!

    full of repetitive missions and dialogues, it's not even a good open world game.
    littreally there is nothing to explore in the world of the game and nothing to enjoy.
    if you need an advice before buying just telling you, DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY !
    it's such big failure for Ubisoft    … Expand
