not to mention ubisoft taking a different direction for watch dogs as a series in which ubisoft changed with the 2nd game taking the change and compared to the first game, watch dogs 1 had a whole different tone that could've dwelve deeper but watch dogs 2 is too ridiculous kinda like saints row. ubisoft changed the direction because of how watch dogs 1 ended up and ppl reacted really shitty towards it mainly because of the downgrade but I feel like the base watch dogs 2 could've been a spin off or a expansion dlc like the 2 witcher dlc's and to see the feedback from fans
@@godzillazfriction pretty much a lot of people complained about Ubisoft back then. Watch dogs, assassins creed so really those fanbases have only themselves to blame for where the franchise is at now
All these critics acted like Aiden was the issue with Watchdogs. In reality, everyone was just salty over the downscaled graphics (which still looked great for the time, just not as great as promised). Truth is, Aiden and the supporting crew in Watchdogs were far more interesting and grounded than the characters in Watchdogs 2, or the non-descript mannequins in Legion.

I loved all the charactors in WD2 because they were still the serious hacker group DedSec on the outside, the game still was about damn serious terms, BUT DedSec in itself are just some hacker nerds that having the time of their lifes while exposing all these big evil cooperations and grow as a group over time. And I loved this dynamic in the story. And Legion is WAY more serious and gritty because all the nerdy hacker literly got killed off at the beginning of the game😬😂.

Aiden is literally the face of watch dogs and will always be no matter what, there’s no other character in the franchise who can top the fox when it comes down to having a very well written flushed out complex character arch. plus it good he’s getting the recognition and credit he deserves. Playing as him was an absolute blessing and an amazing honor. If only his original outfit from WD 1 was wearable in legions.
I've finished Watch Dogs Legion: Bloodline yesterday. It was so much better then the base game. Bloodline made me like more Aiden Pearce as character. Also I like how the DLC explore Aiden's past trauma, by entering his mind with Jackson. But I wish they went more deeper with that idea. If Bloodline was longer or it was the main game, then Legion could've been a bit more better. Lastly, I really enjoyed back and fourth between Wrench and Jordi. They got some weird chemistry. But it was fun and funny. It will be cool if We got Watch Dogs Spin-off, starting both of them. Or another game with Alden.
Mm, the story is absolutely better but the gameplay is terrible. Zero reason to profile anyone and half the enemies you face are bullet sponge robots, plus Aidens hacking abilities are still butchered to fit in line with Legions main gameplay, which just doesn’t work in Bloodlines. The trauma plot was great and I’m glad he finally got that out in a relatively healthy way that didn’t involve murder, they literally inceptioned him though so I’m not sure how much deeper it could get lol Not a bad DLC but my main motivation was to be able to play Aiden in the main game, where I killed him permanently within 10 minutes of recruiting him. Good times.
@@EvelynVioletEverlight Yeah. Legion made a lot of downgrades to the gameplay, especially compared to WD1 and WD2. Another reason why I dont like Legion.

Fax Man is legit one of the few gaming characters I can actually get invested in... I love how through the story his ache for revenge and the guilt eating him up because of thinking he caused his niece's(Lena) death eventually shows the players what all the violence and murder has done to him with him having to send his only raining family away, realizing that he is becoming a monster as shown by the cutscenes with Jackson seeing all his uncle did just further showed something most games don't show, the fact that killing so much and shedding so much blood also has consequences and it really does set it apart from other games. And Aiden is the most badass game character out there and I will take that to my grave

@@johnynoway9127 you have to own the season pass. When you do, you'll be able to recruit him immediately outside the main base after the first couple of missions.
Only thing I didn't like about this game was the driving, it sucks a lot and the fixed camera too, I can't believe they made such a bad driving mechanic, like the previous games had pretty decent driving mechanics and they managed to make it worse.
I prefer the driving over the previous 2 games. I cannot drive for my life in them but in legion I can drive around the entire map at full speed without crashing at all
We need another game with Aiden. Give him a team up with Marcus but keep the tone dark. Only reason I bought Legion was to play Bloodlines. He's seriously underrated and my favorite of the series. The way legion sold kinda tells me it will probably be the last one for a while :/ Edit: Give me back the trench coat physics of the first game!!! 😤
Liked WD Legion, but it felt a bit empty w/ the recruit everyone aspect. Everyone ended up feeling like a variant of another. What i'd given to have a similar setup w/ how WD2/FC5 did with an actual protagonist/companions if we get another Watch Dogs title..
Jayvee, have you seen the "digital trips" from watch dogs 1? Those are some psychedelic quests, what a surprise for me. Love the channel, good fun guaranteed!
super glad you're enjoying!! :) i just looked up a video and wow i don't think i ever played those!! kinda looks like ghostwire tokyo meets horror missions for wd1? really cool stuff :) i need to boot up the first game again to try it out!
@@jayveeeee Theres a few other ones available too, one where you control a spider-mech destroying a section of chicago with objectives, and one that just goes full psychedelic with bright colors and bouncing along absurdly huge flowers, the one I assume you're talking about is just one of 3.
The single player felt boring in my option. Everyone is talking about how good the game is WITH the DLC, but tbh without the DLC, the game felt boring.
I started playing Legion like 3 days ago, gotta say I’m pleasantly surprised how good it is. Sometimes waiting for a while after a game is released is the better option 😂
I liked legion, I just wish they did better with his jacket physics and his face and neck to me just look so weird in this game. He looks pretty scrawny and I can never make an outfit that pleases me with him
Huge fan of watch dogs games and franchises when coming back watch dogs games in franchises when will be happening watch dogs 4 coming in future when expect realsed date announced new watch dogs game 🙂 when make more videos of watch dogs 4 coming this days news and wishlist information ideas 🙂
I still prefer watch Dogs Legion in the the Great United Kingdom and I don't care how much backlash I get watch Dogs Legion is my favourite watch Dogs from the trilogy
I got Bloodlines and all through the side story I was thinking, “Man I can’t wait to recruit Aiden for a new hardcore playthrough!” Which I did, where he did within 10 of recruiting him lol
I understand what they were trying to do, and I welcome and encourage experimentation. But experiences like this are so much better with an actual characters with real stories, not randomly generated avatars.
Watch Dogs Legion was one of my most disappointing games of the last few years. The series has so much potential, I really hope they learn from their past 3 games and make a Watchdogs 4 that avoids the varying and different issues each one had.
“Ubi doesn’t know how to make intimidating villains” wait till (spoilers) you hear that guy in the last fight of the DLC sounding like the principle from A Goofy Movie. Also bad villain aside, I really enjoyed the DLC and a good amount of the main game. Having Aiden, Wrench, a grown up Jackson, and a few Marcus and Jordi cameos in a short DLC was a good way to sell me on this game. I also got the assassin operative and a few others I really enjoyed playing as in the main game, and I actually became invested in their role in the story. Aside from side missions and recruitment missions’ generic lines and animations it feels good to play as your favorite few characters.
Also, the game's mechanics are really... hollow? Like everything is just conveniently there with almost no substance. The car chases feel devoid of weight and purpose, opposite of games like The Getaway on the PS2. The AI is also really rudimentary; I noticed they just kind of do the same things and react very generically without feeling like actual lived-in characters within the world. Makes it seem like a really shallow open-world experience compared to what it could have been.
@@billywashere6965 the “play as anyone” feature felt shallow too. Everyone kinda just felt the exact same, except basic abilities were just locked behind each other such as being able to only do a damn combat roll with the Spy or Hitman. Being able to call your car is only something xyz character can do. Unlocking xyz gun can only be done if you have this XYZ character. Instead, maybe they should’ve just made one single character that has ALL of these abilities at the same time, However you have to unlock those abilities, and that includes the special abilities too. The “play as anyone” feature felt like a gimmicky selling point that we all hyped up before the game came out.
@@anotherrandomguy8871 I really enjoyed Legion and the play as anyone mechanic but Jesus this game really needed a leveling system for operatives where they could unlock new perks and become stronger through experience. They really dropped the ball with that.
Bloodline is only “better” once. The main game is much more replayable. In the main game I think Wrench is better than Aiden and the assassin Darcy smokes all of them
12:20 If they do make another game I want them to go back to the roots of what made WD 1 work so well. Aiden is what made us love Watch Dogs to begin with.
Great video! I want to jump into this game but I watched and played a little of it, and I don't know if I liked it. I liked WD 1 and 2, tho I prefered 1's story, so I hope the DLC is good. Cheers! 😄
@@jayveeeee I really want to give it a go tho, I think that the play as anyone can be a good mechanic if done good; and some people involved in this game was developed games that I really liked, as FC2. PS: Thx for the heart. 🙂
Speaking of changed character models, the one that drove me crazy was Talion in ME: Shadow of War. In Shadow of Mordor he was a good looking guy but in the second game a Neanderthal got slipped in there somehow.
I managed to pick up the season pass on sale for 20 bucks. Gotta be one of the best deals I've ever seen. Not only do you get the season pass for Legion but you also get all of Watchdogs 1 along with its respective season pass added on too.
i like playing watchdog legion more after the bloodline dlc release now that i can recruit and play as aiden pearce from the start of watch dog legion instead of recruit npc.😂
I think Watch Dog with Aiden is just better all around. Domestic part is I can't knock the second and third game and be objective they were very well made I just prefer this character over everybody else which isn't fair but it's how I feel
Yo, I actually really liked legion the gameplay is really fun the way you can go about missions and what not. The best way to play is on resistance mode. It's really cool and a lot harder. Just way more immersive in general.
They could have made Aiden the main character adding this another option of playing as many people from public in the game itself! That would have been great
@@khaoss4024 yea loved the setting, lighting, gameplay but when it comes down to dialogue and story is where it falls apart a bit, it felt too unrealistic and the way the main characters spoke was like 12-13 year olds trying to make an adult joke and be “edgy”, was weird and was cringey at times but overall pretty enjoyable game.
So you did listen when I posted! Okay others too of course. Ubisoft messed up with this game. It is good yeah BUT not having a main character sucks. They could have a main character at your HQ for example and it would make things better.
I enjoyed Watch Dogs 2 so much and was disappointed that they didn’t go back to Aiden as the main character or make another compelling main character. Ubisoft misses so much more than they hit.
Everyone is praising the bloodline DLC, which is cool and all, im glad that people are enjoying the game now, but it took a DLC in order for this game to be regarded as any good.
@@anotherrandomguy8871 It’s a shame. They have so many great I.P’s, but they would be better off in someone else’s hands. They need new project managers and creative writers.
Ok so like festival I know they had already been AI drivable cars before as in like there's no driver in in a seat or anything right but I'm glad that it's kind of back if you know what I mean like I know there's a whole bunch of old games on the PS2 even that had like open world games where worse you could pop into any car and there wasn't really any drivers in their right but I think that they actually tried to you know questions our gender again it's actually interesting because I obviously it one less component you going to need to add as in that you don't have to hide a character in the car and basically doing what MPC would do in a car so it's left to animate right but I thought like what I did is interested in them interested to see that again
it worries me that people still look up to Aiden as a "good protagonist" and "not as bad as people say". he is a generic nobody, with no backstory or even background on his own abilities... he's a Mary Sue, and you guys need a reality check.
I like the way London looks, but man the gameplay in this particular title is SOOOOO dated. The AI are pretty static, the missions are really lame and boring with zero intensity, the chase scenes are devoid of any consequences or proper damage models that make you afraid to crash, and the shooting mechanics look really flimsy. Not to mention that all of the melee attacks seem to have the exact same animation playing over, and over, and over again for every takedown. Seems like this game would get REALLY repetitive are just a couple hours of play.
WD Legion base game doesn’t really deserve the hate it gets though. Ubisoft tried a different approach. In a world that’s full of games with a single character that’s built up for you to connect with, they decided, hey let’s give this a bash & as a result, it actually isn’t so bad. It also looks stunning
Yea it was an awesome concept and they tried to take it as far as resources would allow, but I feel like the "recruit anyone" idea was a mile wide and an inch deep, because there were no underlying personalities to care about, just a bunch of drones. I felt more like a villain sending henchmen to do my bidding than I felt like an "every man" trying to step up to save my city.
@@thevoxdeus they should've kept the leveling system and had it similar to XCOM's. That would be a game changer. You'd actually care more about your high level operatives. Overall I still enjoy the mechanic though. The Deep Profiler is pretty innovative.
Playing as characters, who you don't know. Isn't fun, I want a mature, adult, and fully develop character from the base game. Like Aiden. Not some teenager adult, and a fucking old grandma
@Earnem "isn't fun"...imagine stating your opinion as fact. Personally I found Aiden to be boring af and I enjoyed recruiting my own characters with their own backstory I can make up in my head. Not everyone likes the same things.
@@thedopeson Aiden was interesting, with his troubled but his best efforts with his sibling and nephew. And he had a personality, but was shattered when he was overprotective, and serious.
Always feel like all 3 games were 75 percent complete all good games but man just wish they had some more time to add a bit more wish publishers would let devs say the games are finally complete all the bugs have been squashed the game is fully polished as we are satisfied with man I one day would like to know if any dev out there was able to finish they’re dream game at the certain period
i enjoy play all watch dogs ,1st is masterpiece , 2nd is fun ,3rd is cool, but i agreed , imagine trilogy of aiden pearce i believe this would be more successful than 2 and 3 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Loved this dlc but still think for the 3rd game they should’ve just done a deep dive into a dedsec cell somewhere else in the world while keeping some of the vibe from the second game. Like instead of playing as anyone in the city just a roster of like 5 or 10 or whatever.
No, dedesec in the second game made dedsec seem like a joke. Dedesec in part 1 seemed more dangerous and serious. Bring Dedesec from 1 back. And if not, just get rid of dedsec all together. There’s no reason t keep using the name without really delving into what dedsec originally is meant and supposed to be. Horatio just took the name and did whatever he wanted with it.
I feel like the whole watch dogs series was underrated compared to other games especially legion legion is a decent game I feel like it gets hated too much
Playing through WD rn with FPS boost, great game considering it was pioneering the whole hacking thing. Story also isn’t unrealistic and the graphics are super solid for 2014.
from a side view those robuts looked like they were operating with TRS80's for heads haha. Those had like 4kb of RAM in some models which would explain the inability to spot you when 10 feet away
Watch dogs legion is a great game......once it has a main character, aka Aiden is your main character. When you play as random people the stakes just don't hit at all but having Aiden ground the story since we as players already have a connection to him really enhances it My biggest issue with this game is how they don't let you into building interiors, literally all shops are fucking window wardrobes. That and the fact even the original watch dogs has 10 times more things to do in the open world
@@rabertoification Darcy is arguable the most bland, boring assassin to ever exist. Her entire personality is based around her brother, who turns up dead meaning she has no personality. I don't know what funny mushrooms you consumed to think Darcy is a better character then Aiden but you can keep em to yourself
Watchdogs 4 if it ever happens just has to give us the same systems from this game but along with what made 1 and 2 so good. Give us back store interiors, a better story ( preferably with the recruitment system still but if not it's alright ), gore would be cool, better customization, etc. The games are great but they overstay their welcome at times because they're 20 hour games in terms of how long they feel fresh but they take forever to finish most of the time. I love longer games but they have to justify it and make me wanna get there. 40 or more hours of great content is more than enough for me to preorder a game. They squander so many great concepts in their games and I hope they get their mojo back and that I didn't just preorder star wars outlaws just to find out it's another step downhill for them. 😂
They used a lot more mocap in Legion for Aiden with the same dude who voices him (Noam Jenkins) so checks out that he looks different (apart from the obvious beard) due to that , IMO he def looks closer to Noam. Wrench's actor (Shawn Baichoo) also did some mocap work, I noticed with his model as well that he was tweaked a lil from WD2 with more similarities to said actor. ( There's a Behind-The-Scenes video floating around on youtube somewhere for Bloodlines where they show mocap work in a couple clips).
Can I get aiden Pearce without season pass but with DLC? (If you don’t understand, I meant like if I buy the DLC but I don’t buy season pass, can I still play him in the main game?)
the normal watch dogs legion is just an exact copy of pretty much all ubisoft story games now, kill 3 bosses that are really easy to kill and then kill a final boss that is also extremely easy to kill watch dogs bloodline feels like a completely different game
It’s an ok game but they rlly took the piss out of the English accent to the point it got unbearable like no one in england sounds like most of the characters n NPcs in the game
weird thing about aiden is that people used to hate him coz his supposed "lack of character". dude's practically a batman/solid snake lone avenger archetype. which i still think was a much badass hacker personality, compared to watchdog 2's ghetto activist characters trying to pander hard to the woke crowd. but the most annoying thing about watchdog series isn't the protagonists, but the soy-boy cringe antagonists whose primary trait is being sleazy and irritating. this franchise probably has the most pathetic villains ever created. 😂

I legit hate the random characters thing i could barelly finish the tutorial out of boredome and "humor"
@@johnynoway9127 you have to own the season pass. When you do, you'll be able to recruit him immediately outside the main base after the first couple of missions.
@@stevenbobbybills mam if only those werent so boring.....
the hypster vibe really annoys me...24/7 of cringe humor...
Only thing I didn't like about this game was the driving, it sucks a lot and the fixed camera too, I can't believe they made such a bad driving mechanic, like the previous games had pretty decent driving mechanics and they managed to make it worse.
this explains why i'm constantly running into things 😅
Considering that this franchise was supposed to be a spiritual successor to Driver, it is waaaayy worse than Driver SF.
I prefer the driving over the previous 2 games. I cannot drive for my life in them but in legion I can drive around the entire map at full speed without crashing at all
Then you just suck at driving, cause the first one felt nice. It was easy
@@Bazskua How???!!! I constantly crash
You can bring Aiden to the main game and it is dope. Just make sure permadeath is off. It really sucks to lose him.
We need another game with Aiden. Give him a team up with Marcus but keep the tone dark. Only reason I bought Legion was to play Bloodlines. He's seriously underrated and my favorite of the series. The way legion sold kinda tells me it will probably be the last one for a while :/
Edit: Give me back the trench coat physics of the first game!!! 😤
another great video man, Aiden just should have been in the base game
yo thanks dude!!
The gunplay is one of the big things that I miss from wd1
Liked WD Legion, but it felt a bit empty w/ the recruit everyone aspect. Everyone ended up feeling like a variant of another. What i'd given to have a similar setup w/ how WD2/FC5 did with an actual protagonist/companions if we get another Watch Dogs title..
I'll take established characters over the souless randoms they decided to use for legion any day.
Jayvee, have you seen the "digital trips" from watch dogs 1? Those are some psychedelic quests, what a surprise for me.
Love the channel, good fun guaranteed!
super glad you're enjoying!! :)
i just looked up a video and wow i don't think i ever played those!! kinda looks like ghostwire tokyo meets horror missions for wd1? really cool stuff :) i need to boot up the first game again to try it out!
@@jayveeeee Theres a few other ones available too, one where you control a spider-mech destroying a section of chicago with objectives, and one that just goes full psychedelic with bright colors and bouncing along absurdly huge flowers, the one I assume you're talking about is just one of 3.
ubisoft dlcs are always better than the base game but i dont buy a 60 dollar game and 20 dollar dlc to have 5 hours of mediocre content
Best watch dogs would be Aiden training Marcus in a dark world with Marcus as comic relief.
Wrench fits way better
@@BabyGirlTiny nah wrench is honestly an annoying character I wouldn't want to play an entire game with him
@@ryanthereaper5032 i would
I literally bought the game with aiden just to not play the actual singleplayer at all
The single player felt boring in my option. Everyone is talking about how good the game is WITH the DLC, but tbh without the DLC, the game felt boring.
I started playing Legion like 3 days ago, gotta say I’m pleasantly surprised how good it is. Sometimes waiting for a while after a game is released is the better option 😂
I liked legion, I just wish they did better with his jacket physics and his face and neck to me just look so weird in this game. He looks pretty scrawny and I can never make an outfit that pleases me with him
This game downgraded clothing physics just like ac valhalla
If you didnt know aiden was 39 during watch dogs 1 and 42 during watch dogs 2 legion is set in 2025 making aiden 55
DAMN! Always loved his character tho! 😭
@@remdowers6765 same especially if you actually listen to his audio logs it explains why aiden is so scary to a lot of people nicky included
Huge fan of watch dogs games and franchises when coming back watch dogs games in franchises when will be happening watch dogs 4 coming in future when expect realsed date announced new watch dogs game 🙂 when make more videos of watch dogs 4 coming this days news and wishlist information ideas 🙂
I still prefer watch Dogs Legion in the the Great United Kingdom and I don't care how much backlash I get watch Dogs Legion is my favourite watch Dogs from the trilogy
same. I've beaten all three and I don't know how anyone could think being able to be any NPC is anything but amazing
good innovation by Ubisoft
@@shinichiizumi2242 same in all three games
Legion is my favorite too. And the play as anyone mechanic is crazy innovative. I can see how the game and mechanic isn't for everyone though
I got Bloodlines and all through the side story I was thinking, “Man I can’t wait to recruit Aiden for a new hardcore playthrough!” Which I did, where he did within 10 of recruiting him lol
Aiden has to be one of my favourite protagonists..man he felt so relatable
Wrench & Jordi missions are definitely another highlight of this DLC.
likewise, Wrench & Aiden's outfits you can buy? *chef's kiss*
I understand what they were trying to do, and I welcome and encourage experimentation. But experiences like this are so much better with an actual characters with real stories, not randomly generated avatars.
What about Wrench tho?
Wrench is cool but i'm more of an Aiden guy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@jayveeeee t bone all the way coolest character in watch dogs
Wrench is rubbish. His stun grenade damages you
@@jayveeeee Fair. To each his own, I guess
I always find it funny how. in the main game people talk down to dead sec when you play Aiden Pearce. Like do you know who the fuck you're talking to?
Watch Dogs Legion: Aiden gets a job in the Amazon package drone delivery service.
Aiden looks like he’s apart of the Far Cry 5 cult with that beard 😂😂
Nice
Aiden lost a step with his old age.... 😔
Watch Dogs Legion was one of my most disappointing games of the last few years. The series has so much potential, I really hope they learn from their past 3 games and make a Watchdogs 4 that avoids the varying and different issues each one had.
“Ubi doesn’t know how to make intimidating villains” wait till (spoilers) you hear that guy in the last fight of the DLC sounding like the principle from A Goofy Movie. Also bad villain aside, I really enjoyed the DLC and a good amount of the main game. Having Aiden, Wrench, a grown up Jackson, and a few Marcus and Jordi cameos in a short DLC was a good way to sell me on this game. I also got the assassin operative and a few others I really enjoyed playing as in the main game, and I actually became invested in their role in the story. Aside from side missions and recruitment missions’ generic lines and animations it feels good to play as your favorite few characters.
Watch Dogs Legion was a massive disappointment because there was no main character and it felt empty even though the game is absolutely gorgeous.
Also, the game's mechanics are really... hollow? Like everything is just conveniently there with almost no substance. The car chases feel devoid of weight and purpose, opposite of games like The Getaway on the PS2. The AI is also really rudimentary; I noticed they just kind of do the same things and react very generically without feeling like actual lived-in characters within the world. Makes it seem like a really shallow open-world experience compared to what it could have been.
@@billywashere6965 the “play as anyone” feature felt shallow too. Everyone kinda just felt the exact same, except basic abilities were just locked behind each other such as being able to only do a damn combat roll with the Spy or Hitman. Being able to call your car is only something xyz character can do. Unlocking xyz gun can only be done if you have this XYZ character.
Instead, maybe they should’ve just made one single character that has ALL of these abilities at the same time, However you have to unlock those abilities, and that includes the special abilities too. The “play as anyone” feature felt like a gimmicky selling point that we all hyped up before the game came out.
@@anotherrandomguy8871 Yep, having a dedicated character who could unlock or mix and match traits would have worked out so much better.
@@anotherrandomguy8871 I really enjoyed Legion and the play as anyone mechanic but Jesus this game really needed a leveling system for operatives where they could unlock new perks and become stronger through experience. They really dropped the ball with that.
Bloodline is only “better” once. The main game is much more replayable. In the main game I think Wrench is better than Aiden and the assassin Darcy smokes all of them
Aiden is honestly in my opinion, an extremely underrated character.
Extremely powerful with his systems crash which helps when the player doesn't have any of the disabling abilities yet.
12:20 If they do make another game I want them to go back to the roots of what made WD 1 work so well.
Aiden is what made us love Watch Dogs to begin with.
Great video! I want to jump into this game but I watched and played a little of it, and I don't know if I liked it. I liked WD 1 and 2, tho I prefered 1's story, so I hope the DLC is good. Cheers! 😄
thanks for watching dude! that's fair :) definitely not for everyone
@@jayveeeee I really want to give it a go tho, I think that the play as anyone can be a good mechanic if done good; and some people involved in this game was developed games that I really liked, as FC2. PS: Thx for the heart. 🙂
Speaking of changed character models, the one that drove me crazy was Talion in ME: Shadow of War. In Shadow of Mordor he was a good looking guy but in the second game a Neanderthal got slipped in there somehow.
YES MY COMMENTS ON THIS DIDNT GO UNNOTICED!!!!
In all seriousness I'm sure many people asked for it aside from me but I wanted this so bad!!!
I remember Iraq in the original watchdogs. Dude was scary
I managed to pick up the season pass on sale for 20 bucks. Gotta be one of the best deals I've ever seen. Not only do you get the season pass for Legion but you also get all of Watchdogs 1 along with its respective season pass added on too.
i like playing watchdog legion more after the bloodline dlc release now that i can recruit and play as aiden pearce from the start of watch dog legion instead of recruit npc.😂
Would that make Legions worth in your opinion?
@@acewolfgang276 Yes. Without the dlc it is fun too i tend to play as one character so i don't feel like recruiting npc
I think Watch Dog with Aiden is just better all around. Domestic part is I can't knock the second and third game and be objective they were very well made I just prefer this character over everybody else which isn't fair but it's how I feel
My only complaint is that Aidan runs slower than his animation
Watch Dogs: the most inconsistent video game trilogy ever
Yo, I actually really liked legion the gameplay is really fun the way you can go about missions and what not. The best way to play is on resistance mode. It's really cool and a lot harder. Just way more immersive in general.
Analytics be like: 0:15 to 1:43 is the most skipped part
They could have made Aiden the main character adding this another option of playing as many people from public in the game itself! That would have been great
They should have made him the protagonist, it would have been such a good game if the dlc was actually the main game
Can't have a cool white male as the lead in today's generation of games, or someone might ge offended in bird people land.
@@billywashere6965 i guess...
I really like Watch Dogs Legion, i don’t think it’s as good as Watch Dogs 2, but its definitely still worth a playthrough
low key i despise WD2. It was way too playful. Great gameplay but L story.
@@khaoss4024 yea loved the setting, lighting, gameplay but when it comes down to dialogue and story is where it falls apart a bit, it felt too unrealistic and the way the main characters spoke was like 12-13 year olds trying to make an adult joke and be “edgy”, was weird and was cringey at times but overall pretty enjoyable game.
Couldn't stand legion, way to trendy.
This takes place 15 years after the first game, he's around 55 years old.
Any moment Aiden isn’t in his regular coat is a moment wasted
So you did listen when I posted! Okay others too of course. Ubisoft messed up with this game. It is good yeah BUT not having a main character sucks. They could have a main character at your HQ for example and it would make things better.
I enjoyed Watch Dogs 2 so much and was disappointed that they didn’t go back to Aiden as the main character or make another compelling main character. Ubisoft misses so much more than they hit.
Everyone is praising the bloodline DLC, which is cool and all, im glad that people are enjoying the game now, but it took a DLC in order for this game to be regarded as any good.
@@anotherrandomguy8871 It’s a shame. They have so many great I.P’s, but they would be better off in someone else’s hands. They need new project managers and creative writers.
Ok so like festival I know they had already been AI drivable cars before as in like there's no driver in in a seat or anything right but I'm glad that it's kind of back if you know what I mean like I know there's a whole bunch of old games on the PS2 even that had like open world games where worse you could pop into any car and there wasn't really any drivers in their right but I think that they actually tried to you know questions our gender again it's actually interesting because I obviously it one less component you going to need to add as in that you don't have to hide a character in the car and basically doing what MPC would do in a car so it's left to animate right but I thought like what I did is interested in them interested to see that again
Also, football hooligans are terrible from what I’ve heard 😭 actual gangs
it worries me that people still look up to Aiden as a "good protagonist" and "not as bad as people say".
he is a generic nobody, with no backstory or even background on his own abilities... he's a Mary Sue, and you guys need a reality check.
Did Legion just do it better than Cyberpunk?
I personally enjoyed Legion a lot more than Cyberpunk
fuck no lmao 💀
@@ghosttoast4045 Cyberpunk is ass lol
Love the first WD, but even Aiden can't made this playable.
I like the way London looks, but man the gameplay in this particular title is SOOOOO dated. The AI are pretty static, the missions are really lame and boring with zero intensity, the chase scenes are devoid of any consequences or proper damage models that make you afraid to crash, and the shooting mechanics look really flimsy. Not to mention that all of the melee attacks seem to have the exact same animation playing over, and over, and over again for every takedown. Seems like this game would get REALLY repetitive are just a couple hours of play.
I hated how the camera kept centering while driving in Legion, it made my blood boil, and the worst part is you can't even turn that shit off!
Took you good while to acknowledge this. This made watch dogs legion for me. Still kinda like the first one more tho
WD Legion base game doesn’t really deserve the hate it gets though. Ubisoft tried a different approach. In a world that’s full of games with a single character that’s built up for you to connect with, they decided, hey let’s give this a bash & as a result, it actually isn’t so bad. It also looks stunning
Yea it was an awesome concept and they tried to take it as far as resources would allow, but I feel like the "recruit anyone" idea was a mile wide and an inch deep, because there were no underlying personalities to care about, just a bunch of drones. I felt more like a villain sending henchmen to do my bidding than I felt like an "every man" trying to step up to save my city.
@@thevoxdeus they should've kept the leveling system and had it similar to XCOM's. That would be a game changer. You'd actually care more about your high level operatives. Overall I still enjoy the mechanic though. The Deep Profiler is pretty innovative.
Playing as characters, who you don't know. Isn't fun, I want a mature, adult, and fully develop character from the base game. Like Aiden. Not some teenager adult, and a fucking old grandma
@Earnem "isn't fun"...imagine stating your opinion as fact. Personally I found Aiden to be boring af and I enjoyed recruiting my own characters with their own backstory I can make up in my head. Not everyone likes the same things.
@@thedopeson Aiden was interesting, with his troubled but his best efforts with his sibling and nephew.
And he had a personality, but was shattered when he was overprotective, and serious.
Always feel like all 3 games were 75 percent complete all good games but man just wish they had some more time to add a bit more wish publishers would let devs say the games are finally complete all the bugs have been squashed the game is fully polished as we are satisfied with man I one day would like to know if any dev out there was able to finish they’re dream game at the certain period
I just completed this game yesterday, and man was this DLC worth all the time spent!🙌🌟💯
I loved the video! Your WD content is great! You should try Yakuza 0 sometime, its an amazing game!
i enjoy play all watch dogs ,1st is masterpiece , 2nd is fun ,3rd is cool, but i agreed , imagine trilogy of aiden pearce i believe this would be more successful than 2 and 3 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I might hate this game (OG ftw), but damn at least it's not dry boring fart like cyberpunk 😂
Loved this dlc but still think for the 3rd game they should’ve just done a deep dive into a dedsec cell somewhere else in the world while keeping some of the vibe from the second game. Like instead of playing as anyone in the city just a roster of like 5 or 10 or whatever.
No, dedesec in the second game made dedsec seem like a joke. Dedesec in part 1 seemed more dangerous and serious. Bring Dedesec from 1 back. And if not, just get rid of dedsec all together. There’s no reason t keep using the name without really delving into what dedsec originally is meant and supposed to be. Horatio just took the name and did whatever he wanted with it.
@@BabyGirlTiny man who tf is Wally
Really had a great time with this game, the bloodline dlc was actually better than the main story.
Despite the dlc’s story being such a mess, the part in Aiden’s mind had me jaw dropped the whole time
Truly a good reference from Ubisoft team, bravo
when i got the season pass i’ve mostly used only the season pass operatives 😂
The ad was actually called
bloodlines smooth.
12:34 “Let’s get to work”
“Air-Mode whrrrrr”
1:42 the end of the sponser
I know and that's why I said it needed to be a sequel to aiden to finish his story tbh
I feel like the whole watch dogs series was underrated compared to other games especially legion legion is a decent game I feel like it gets hated too much
Playing through WD rn with FPS boost, great game considering it was pioneering the whole hacking thing. Story also isn’t unrealistic and the graphics are super solid for 2014.
I unironically forgot this game existed and I played the first 2 games so much
Since Aiden is in every game if they ever make a watchdogs 4 they should put him as the main playable character next again
How is this watch dogs
from a side view those robuts looked like they were operating with TRS80's for heads haha. Those had like 4kb of RAM in some models which would explain the inability to spot you when 10 feet away
Make sure E3 settings on!
you got a dislike for the stupid ad at the beginning
I disliked for 22 minutes of him talking .... LIKE DUDE SHUT UP
The graphics are worse than WD1 lol
Watch dogs legion is a great game......once it has a main character, aka Aiden is your main character.
When you play as random people the stakes just don't hit at all but having Aiden ground the story since we as players already have a connection to him really enhances it
My biggest issue with this game is how they don't let you into building interiors, literally all shops are fucking window wardrobes.
That and the fact even the original watch dogs has 10 times more things to do in the open world
@@rabertoification Darcy is arguable the most bland, boring assassin to ever exist.
Her entire personality is based around her brother, who turns up dead meaning she has no personality.
I don't know what funny mushrooms you consumed to think Darcy is a better character then Aiden but you can keep em to yourself
@@Trinket_Master He probably is a bird person who complains about the patriarchy on the bird people platform.
@@billywashere6965 I definitely think you're right buddy lmao
@@billywashere6965 a bird person. That is the best way I've heard someone describe the radical Twitter people🤣
WoW watch dog s legion sucks but bloodline is great
Watchdogs 4 if it ever happens just has to give us the same systems from this game but along with what made 1 and 2 so good. Give us back store interiors, a better story ( preferably with the recruitment system still but if not it's alright ), gore would be cool, better customization, etc. The games are great but they overstay their welcome at times because they're 20 hour games in terms of how long they feel fresh but they take forever to finish most of the time. I love longer games but they have to justify it and make me wanna get there. 40 or more hours of great content is more than enough for me to preorder a game. They squander so many great concepts in their games and I hope they get their mojo back and that I didn't just preorder star wars outlaws just to find out it's another step downhill for them. 😂
They used a lot more mocap in Legion for Aiden with the same dude who voices him (Noam Jenkins) so checks out that he looks different (apart from the obvious beard) due to that , IMO he def looks closer to Noam. Wrench's actor (Shawn Baichoo) also did some mocap work, I noticed with his model as well that he was tweaked a lil from WD2 with more similarities to said actor. ( There's a Behind-The-Scenes video floating around on youtube somewhere for Bloodlines where they show mocap work in a couple clips).
Can I get aiden Pearce without season pass but with DLC? (If you don’t understand, I meant like if I buy the DLC but I don’t buy season pass, can I still play him in the main game?)
the normal watch dogs legion is just an exact copy of pretty much all ubisoft story games now, kill 3 bosses that are really easy to kill and then kill a final boss that is also extremely easy to kill
watch dogs bloodline feels like a completely different game
It’s an ok game but they rlly took the piss out of the English accent to the point it got unbearable like no one in england sounds like most of the characters n NPcs in the game
weird thing about aiden is that people used to hate him coz his supposed "lack of character".
dude's practically a batman/solid snake lone avenger archetype. which i still think was a much badass hacker personality, compared to watchdog 2's ghetto activist characters trying to pander hard to the woke crowd.
but the most annoying thing about watchdog series isn't the protagonists, but the soy-boy cringe antagonists whose primary trait is being sleazy and irritating.
this franchise probably has the most pathetic villains ever created. 😂
