I have thought about playing Watch Dogs since the alpha of the first game, but never got around to it. What am I missing?
Excuse me for reacting this late.
Taking out enemies with cameras, gadgets and traps in an open world is pretty nice. Gameplay a bit different in every game.
The story in the first one, wasn't that interesting to me and a lot of reviewers talked about how wooden Aiden Pierces personality was. Also suicidal killer cop cars that will run over everyone and everything to get to you, hehe.
Second game is different in story and setting (San Francisco), mechanics and controls slightly different. I liked it, but again not for the story, same with the third, where everyone talks in street slang bruv...but the open world, stealth, drones, puzzles and hacking made me sink 60 hours into that game. Haven't played the DLC for Legion, one can play Aiden Pierce, but I am not sure it is worth the price, even at discount.
Ah. Thanks. If the story is lackluster then I will probably just skip it.
