someone needs to tell game developers that a harder difficulty shouldn't just mean modified damage tables. A headshot not being a one-hit kill just breaks immersion. Give them helmets or something, or give them better AI on harder difficulties
A headshot with a homemade taser probably wouldn't be a one shot though. From what I've played, even on hard, lethal weapons one shot unarmoured basic enemies.
@@tortoiseoflegends4466 very late, but totally correct - Learnt this fast in resistance mode where having a high end lethal gun for emergencies was FAR more important that the damage to rep it caused as long as you stick to melee until it's necessary (Cause usually you don't wanna pull a gun till they do).

I really really didn't want to watch it until I had played the game myself fully but I couldn't help myself and here I am. This game and Dan are both so great..

The love that I have in my heart for your content Dan, I used to watch you a lot more and then a lot of channel and TH-cam changes happened and I kind of fell off but the content you’ve been doing recently is so reminiscent and nostalgic from what I used to love
Something about sassy robots just gets me everytime. 40 minutes into watching this game (cause fuck, I can't afford it myself, so thanks for letting me live vicariously through you Dan) and Bagley's already my favourite character.
Dan if your seeing this i just wanna say your an amazing streamer and youtuber even though TH-cam broke you for a bit you didn't give up you fought to get yourself where you are now so just wanna say i hope your doing well and keep going
this makes me want to see someone deliberately spend all the time to get a collection of every restricted section uniform, and play the game from the beginning with a 'floor is lava' rule-set, where nobody is allowed into a restricted section without the correct uniform. I think this is just because I like the idea that someone would want to follow the rules.
@@WillTheCheeseGod I already have a set of restricted clothing sets. Its somewhat easy to flip albion guards once you get the tech upgrade for deep profiling
I've been going in on permadeath hard mode with a hitman and using only the pistol to go through areas like john wick. . I've lost a few hitmen this way, it makes the game alot more challenging imo
I like how ~7(?) years ago the original Watch Dogs blew us all away with how damn underwhelming it was, and now Legion is just absolutely stunning, incredibly high quality
I Really like the way the game as portrayed this sought of cyber punk version of London but part of me wishes it was more like Watch Dogs 2 San Francisco where it is basically the real city as it is now with a few adjustments
Said to myself " I'm so excited about wdl that I'll wait to watch the playthrough to avoid spoilers" here I am 1:32:12 deep and just about to watch part 2 lol
These videos are tempting me so much. Its getting harder and harder to resist them. I need to wait till December to get the game and I want to experience it fresh, especially after those 3 non story videos you've done. Just really hope I can avoid spoilers until then, play it all fresh them come back to see you wreak havoc on the drizzly town of London. Just had to come here, not watch a second, and say this to get out the frustration.
this game really can't have the bollocks to try and have a heartfelt moment or try and be serious when you have the option or opportunity to play as a chav that rivals kelly from misfits
I wasn't sure about this, all footage I saw was just people messing about so it was hard to tell what proper gameplay would be like, but I'm convinced. This really does look worth playing. Love your vids Dan!
I like Legion, but honestly it feels shallow in comparison to the others. There's not much to do outside of main missions and less than a handful of activities like kick up and boxing.
I really wished you could recruit Queen. I mean, she'd be totally OP, no one would attack her because of respect for her and she wouldn't be out of place in restricted areas (yo! it's the royal inspection!), at least until she start hacking stuff and beat people up.
Too late for this to be relevant, but that "Easter Egg" place at the end is a real place! It's a massive Greenhouse filled with plants (and a bloody expensive cafe)
From Wikipedia: A lovespoon is a wooden spoon decoratively carved that was traditionally presented as a gift of romantic intent. The spoon is normally decorated with symbols of love and was intended to reflect the skill of the carver. Due to the intricate designs, lovespoons are no longer used as functioning spoons and are now decorative craft items.
That intro scene has an interesting error at 2:37. The bit at the far right and i think left as well are unlit in real life, because they are apartments for the speaker of parliament and the speaker of the house of lords.
4:55 - when you use your foot to find a lego... 36:50 - woof... those facial animations - not to mention the VOICE... I mean, I know UbiSoft is trying to push the boundaries of tech - but... just... WOOF :P
I'm playing this game now and I see there are trophies (and I assume achievements as well) for playing darts at all darts locations and drinking at every drink location. Made me think that your next Road Trip should be a WD:L Pub Crawl!!!
Also I must add as a small thing, your playthrough, but you should consider attempting to recruit someone in Albion, will make things slightly easier probably
Is the British flag in this game, the standard British flag with the St Davids (Welsh Cross) on it? When did we start caring about the Welsh ? Kidding I care about you guys, you Welsh people are lovely :)

I'm sorry, did you just say that the Saints Row 2 Completes was in _2012?_ Tha... No, that can't be right!
It’s the excitement. He’s back after the many years of Nerd3’s Hell
That was nearly a decade ago btw

The only big hitch would be finding an Albion guard who is sympathetic to DedSec

*Waves* I live in Coventry 😊
Coventryyyy! Woo! Always fun to see, don't live there currently but lived their for 18 of my 23 years on this planet and was raised there.
I am also from Coventry. Absolutely love it
The best part about Coventry is the road out of it. Left in July after 20 years

They had to to get guns into London I’d guess
Gonna have to wait to watch this as I want to play it for myself on my PS5 so I’m just gonna watch the 3 videos you’ve made on it over and over again
Dan, a lovespoon is a Welsh thing! It's a carved wooden spoon :) they're a big thing with tourists in Wales
Is it a perverted thing or just a representation to love?

Wow, that was quick Matt! Very impressed!

Why am i watching this entire series for the third time in 4 months
39:10 Her expression after he reads the name of her video! ROTFL

oh my god you're right! love
I like Legion, but honestly it feels shallow in comparison to the others. There's not much to do outside of main missions and less than a handful of activities like kick up and boxing.
And there's a VIP Status which costs real money. Such ashame that they had to put in MTX.

Is it just me, or does the BT Tower (Blume Tower in the game) look like a giant sonic screwdriver?
My question is is London calling a playable song on the radio in this otherwise OOF missed opportunity
Also if Anarchy in the UK by the Sex Pistols then that's a huge missed opportunity
panic on the streets of london - the smiths
Your series on Watch Dogs 2 is one of my all-time favorites

Nothing makes me both simultaneously laugh as hard, and be nervous as fuck, as watching Dan drive.
DAMNNNN I was waiting for this for about 4 years.
I want Dan to find someone that looks like him 😂
I want Dan to find himself put in the game by Ubisoft!
i was not expecting to hear my home city of Plymouth get mentioned in this at all!! missed the steam so wished i did now
"Dan Carter" is a famous rugby player from New Zealand. The more you know.
before your starting character runs she does a little hop what a nice little bit of detail they put in
I’ll able to watch this guy I feel.
Got a sudden urge to watch this

Fairly sure Sabine's voice actor is the same as Mary Read in black flag
I'm kind of upset watching 'Dalton' die seeing as Sean Connery just passed away. But upset in a good, sad way.
Honestly looking at this it seems to me like the collectors edition stuff detracts from the game.
Feels like so, Gold Edition is probably the best version: base game and season pass
@@callmeivan2064 You also get Aiden
@@baconous689 yeah, aiden is part of the season pass along with Wrench and 2 other hackers if I'm not mistaken.
@@callmeivan2064 AC insert and a mind control person
I think the prestige operatives can't die either, I've dropped mine from a cargo drone in the sky and he's always just injured. That's a DEATH height.
The hand to hand close quarters combat in this game looks great
I'm playing this game now and I see there are trophies (and I assume achievements as well) for playing darts at all darts locations and drinking at every drink location. Made me think that your next Road Trip should be a WD:L Pub Crawl!!!

Also I must add as a small thing, your playthrough, but you should consider attempting to recruit someone in Albion, will make things slightly easier probably
Wait for a crack
I unfortunately cannot do that, as I'm on Xbox
Kinda of sad that when you recruit the Queen's Guard they won't do the marching animation in rescrtied areas like Buckingham Palace.
I'm 25 and I remember Floppy disks. In fact, my dad gave me one to use for the solar eclipse.
i get butterflies every time i see footage of this game
Keep the Aston Martin Dan, I'm a car boy and I love looking at it.
Oh also find Richard Hammond and buy him a bunch of expensive cars for time sensitive missions.
I'm gonna be watching this to kill time because it's too funny
Aight time to watch Dan play a game to decide if I want to buy it myself, the usual decision progress.
32:32 Complete means COMPLETE! Please?
34:50 Good compromise.
23:48 - it's MC Ride!
anyone else notice the creepy visual glitch at 23:35? that poor man has no head lol

Yeah, everyone at the start is an NPC you can run into later on.
nice that the time limit exists so i can actually watch the stream in one sitting haha
I have been waiting for this.
I am ready.
Yo you probably ought to know that most classical music recordings are not public domain, because the copyright belongs to whoever recorded it.
Can’t wait to attempt to 100% this game
*gets about an hour in* ..... WELL I'M FUKIN STAYING 💀
I was gonna skip on this Watch Dogs because I didn't enjoy 1 or 2 for whatever reason but watching you play through this makes me want to play it too
Why do the guards use what look like HK416s instead of their SA-80s?
How exactly does that cloaking device work? If it made you invisible to cameras/drones it would make sense.
Spider reminds me of the 2004 James Bond game. I like it
The game looks super fun. I'd spend hours trying to get one person from each different places.
I spent 2 hours listening to the audio points in just the pub area
I'm gonna have to let this be the only video I watch of this game until I can get myself a 3070 to run the game.
1:50:06 That moment was magical.
Man its going to be sad when Dan finds out that that bar is not really an Easter egg and is a place you need to go for a mission.
fun fact mister yahtzee himself rote some lines for bagley
Anyone who thinks Eurobeat makes you drive dangerously has never driven with classical music on.
I still use a floppy disk for work... Yay NHS
I would have loved to have played this but I have a moral issue with deactivating a bomb under the Houses of Parliament
Enid her accent is just perfect hahaha
Why do the shadows look off?
How is this game only 34 gigs on PlayStation?
MADNESS!!! 😂
Is the voice actor for Sabine and Kidd from Assassins creed Black Flag the same person?
Is the British flag in this game, the standard British flag with the St Davids (Welsh Cross) on it?
When did we start caring about the Welsh ?
Kidding I care about you guys, you Welsh people are lovely :)
35:17 I've never used one, but my dad does programming and he's got all the versions of his software on floppy disks framed on the wall
I think this foreshadowing our future.
