      Ubi also needs to just kill Beyond Good and Evil 2 at this point. There’s no way anything good can come from a project with 17 years of development and nothing really to show for it.

    Now if ubisoft could go under too. I’m still pissed the splinter cell games are such a shit show on PC and they have the neck to ask for full price with the bugs and multiplayer being disabled. They can get fucked

    Probably for the best. Watch Dogs 2 was a weird tonal shift.

        Hated the main character. The guy in part 1 was a vigilante out for blood. But the second, you’re some millennial, happy, hipster hacker. It makes no sense running around the city tearing shit up with the second protagonist

        agreed, one felt like an edgy young adult book you’d find on a shelf at the public library. Two had a lot of attitude and style and I loved it

    The article mentions a movie in the works. I don’t consider that dead and buried.

    Plus as society gets more dystopian with surveillance, the IP will probably get more topics to cover

    I liked all three games and I hope they continue. I think I liked the first game best, Legion the least but I still enjoyed it.

    It’s nice to see a movie based in Chicago as a guy from the Netherlands and say, hey I have been there in Watch Dogs

      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.
