    I am not one of those bigger gaming websites no 2-minute reviews here only details. Videogame reviews all the time. So if you are tired of short reviews, ones that don't discuss all the games, this is the right place. No big website 2-minute stuff here.
    Coverage includes ps4, PS5, XBox series X, Xbox one, pc, Xbox 360, Wii, Wiiu, Switch, and digital storefronts like Steam, as well as companies like Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo

      Ubisoft basically does that with every game. They all have the same mechanics. That said, Clint Hawking is involved in this (he was the lead for Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and Far Cry 2) and he always makes weird games with complex systems so maybe Ubisoft just let him take a risk with this one?

      I STILL play Shadow of War weekly because the Nemesis system makes the game so damn replayable!

      ​@@Shepard0817 Arkham Knight on PC was just one of many second-rate shitty ports of a console game that happened to release at the same time. (The console version was made by Rocksteady and they outsourced the PC version to someone else)... not the same company developing across all platforms as Ubi does.
      There may be some minor exceptions a year or two into new consoles when the median level of PC hardware hasn't eclipsed next-gen consoles' power, but there isn't a PS5/XBSX version for comparison atm. It's definitely not going to perform better on the PS4/XB1.

    I really enjoy when games create an "organic" world, and what you described sounds really cool.
    Like the brother about to join you not wanting to anymore because of what happened. That wasn't a scripted event, and what you did in gameplay actually affected the NPC characters.
    It's also a pretty cool idea that brings me some level of anxiety, because being able to play as just ANYONE in the city, also makes it so that I actually think about the NPC's as more valuable than one might in a game like GTA. The people of London are actually a commodity, so you can't go on shooting rampages and just run random people over like someone might do in a GTA game.
    Also I love your honest hearty laugh, and you have a great point in that most people don't look like moviestars, so why should Jason Robinson, the butcher's apprentice who likes to watch figure skating and sing Disney songs at Karaoke look like Chris Hemsworth?

The recruiting system seems quirky and silly, and frankly I'm just looking forward to playing a game that doesn't take itself too seriously, is fun to explore and provides some lol moments. Also, the London setting has particular appeal to me as an American living in London for the past 2 years, can't wait to explore the city virtually and poke around near my office in Southwark and visit the different neighborhoods of central London!

    @eiadtarabulsi 3 года назад +3

    I was expecting more from Watch Dogs Legion. Sure, it looks fun. Causing chaos in an open world is always satisfying and cathartic, but I can't justify buying it on launch day. Initially, I was really excited that I could play as anyone, even a gun toting grandma, which is absurd and it's part of the game's charm and appeal. The fact that an average, everyday person can save the city is a neat idea. The inclusion of permadeath ups the challenge considerably. However, I feel like something is missing this time around. The city seems barren with very few civilians at any given moment. Buildings are there just for the sake of window dressing. Voice modulation doesn't work all the time. Facial hair looks really awkward. Music is alright. Performance is inconsistent. There are bugs and glitches as well. Again, there is definitely fun to be had in the world of Watch Dogs Legion, but it's just not worth the full $60 price tag. There seem to be more flaws with Legions than there were in the previous two installments combined. Having said that, I will most likely wait until it goes on sale before I decide to purchase it. Otherwise, thanks once again Karak for another honest, unbiased and informative review. As always, I greatly appreciate the continued hard work. Keep bringing the awesome content!
