It's ok, not every franchise has to go on forever.

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.
Replies in Diablo 1 CD.
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
ask for full price with the bugs and multiplayer disabled
At least the bugs are disabled /s
Probably for the best. Watch Dogs 2 was a weird tonal shift.
Watch Dogs 2 was the only one I actually enjoyed playing.
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
Agreed. The first one was a tonal flatline for me.
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
Watchdogs 1 was the best for me, miss playing that game
The hide and seek in it is still one of my favorite multiplayer games of all time! Pretending to be an NPC just had me cracking up!
Yeah that game was so good
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.
Ah. Thanks. If the story is lackluster then I will probably just skip it.
Wait, it was a series? I didn't know there was more than the 1st game...
There's 3.
Part 2 is polarizing, half the people love it the other hate it. Part 3 is just trash, it's the one I played last and barely remember any of it cause it was so bad
I enjoy playing Watch Dogs 2 again and again mainly because it's set in SF and the Bay Area. I just love the vibe it gives me.
I didn't like the protagonist in part 2. It made no sense to me, tearing through the city, blowing up shit, killing people, as this happy, hipster hacker. At least the first protagonist was a vigilante out for blood, so the carnage made sense.
