Watch Dogs 2 manages, somehow, to be both better than the first and Legion.
It has, unlike both others, a strong cast of characters that help to carry the ‘just-okay’ plotline.
I’m slightly disappointed about the lack of use of the ‘main’ antagonist, limited to just a few (maybe 3 at the max) cutscenes spread throughout the game which left the finale feeling quite underwhelming.
I also took issue with the combat. I kinda expected as a hacker to be able to take multiple routes to complete a mission, rather than 9/10 ending up having to go in guns blazing or knocking out enemies - let me use my remote gadgets / camera hacking to do the work damn it!
The driving, also, isn’t the best experience ever. Ubisoft have yet to impress me with any kind of driving experience in their games.
I will say though, the rest of the game makes up, somewhat, for these faults and if they do make a fourth I hope to god it’s like this one.
(Also, bring back Marcus as he, along with Wrench, are the best characters this series has to offer)
