Watch Dogs: Legion vs Watch Dogs 2 | Direct Comparison

[@Nick930]

Hey everyone! Thanks for tuning in :) 4K/60 will be available soon - KZbin is still processing it (Several days later and still 1080p... why YT?). And stay tuned for a lot more coverage on all the new games and hardware (There's a LOT of it coming this next month or so!) Note: You may notice footage of "Watch_Dogs 2" flickers occasionally. It turns out this is a problem with the game running above 60fps. I locked the framerate and the issue went away. Not sure if there's any other fix for it. Edit: 5:18 the clips are on opposite sides. Point still stands. Streets are empty in Watch_Dogs 2 when compared to legion.

The main downside for me on legion is the world interaction, the simple things like calling the cops on people or causing a blackout, maybe you can do this later on but im not far into the story yet so I'm keeping my head up....

[@ultrag33k52]

I've not got too far myself (only unlocked one region) but I get the feeling those two game mechanics aren't there as Albion now control security & can jam the area from hacking very quickly once they suspect Deadsec. In this game Deadsec aren't just a small hacker group working in the shadows like WD 1 & 2, they've become what's considered a large scale terrorist rebellion. So in theory it's harder to dupe the police/Ctos system, in most part this is due to the drones patrolling the city. The gameplay doesn't reflect the harder to Hack so much though, other than the quicker jamming/signal lockdown. They can however take your control away from vehicles & drones quite quickly so there is that I suppose.

[@paris-ml1gy]

Sadly neither of those abilities exist in Legion 😔

[@izmirs.]

the whole recruitment implementation added to the game really made the developers forget everything else that's crucial and important to the game apart from the open world of course. Most of the stuff were badly executed and the voice acting is incredibly abhorrent.

I'm playing Watch dogs: Legion right now and my biggest issue is how easy the game is frankly. I don't play games on hard generally, but I did with this one, but even that wasn't enough, so I stopped using the cargo drone and spider drone as well unless there was no other choice because they made completing virtually any mission ridiculously easy. My secondary problem is that while being able to turn any NPC into a playable character SEEMS like a great idea, the reality is I don't give a flip about the story, whether I use lethal force or non-lethal and I don't care about the characters, none of them. The closest thing to a decent character they have is Bagly and aside from the jokes, he's just annoying. Watch Dogs 2 is in my opinion a by FAR better game all around. Loved the story, cared about the characters and had the right amount of difficulty for me. Not to mention Legion's British accents and tropes are really annoying. I lived in the UK around London for 5 years and not everyone sounds like a bad stereotipic representation of how a Brit sounds to Americans. Not impressed with the game at all

I like both games ,but 2 has to be one of my favorite open world games of all time. Compared to legion, there's just a lot more character and minor details that make the game sooo good for me. The camera bobbing to the main character's walk speed, the character's attitudes, the nerdy references, the on the nose reference to Ubisoft San Francisco, the music app that had you find the songs yourself and aloud you to make your own playlists, The selfie app with a comment section, the uber minigames that had their own little chunk of originality, how you can actually go in clothes stores, how hacking uses battery life instead of a basic cooldown, you can call the cops and gangs on people, you had to worry about people calling cops on you instead of them just immediately knowing. It all felt like I was living there more than legion, where it feels more like a simulation to me. I feel where legion failed was not having enough time, they had to focus so hard on the new gimmick, that it had to sacrifice all the minor details that made the second game so good.

In this new "Advanced metropolis" you would think the Watchdogs 2 order system for cars would have been included.

[@voided_reality6863]

I'm loving WDL so far, I loved WD2 though, replayed it at least 6 times with the Season Pass content as well. I think that from what I've been hearing and reading, the Aiden and Wrench season pass expansions are both going to be heavily story oriented with well scripted cutscenes and everything so I'm all good with the setup on Legion right now, especially because the more you use a character the more defined they seem to get. Sidenote, does anyone else notice the voice-overs are out of sync with the characters mouth movement? It's really fucking irritating. P.S. It's worth noting that the "permadeath" system is completely optional, nobody seems to point that out in articles or videos, it's actually off as default when you begin the game. When it's not active you just retry like you would in any other sandbox.

[@guitarman0365]

i felt the same at first. but one day i decided to pick 2 back up again and just push through the first little bit and then i ended up really likeing it more than i originally did but still less than 1. I prefer 2 for the increase usage of hacking and the drones and quadcopter especially was so handy and awesome for aerial recon and following the hacking streams instead of only have cameras or running around everywhere. Watch dogs was really limiting in terms of what you could do with aiden on the hacking side and the puzzles where you have to switch those little connector things were so much more annoying and difficult with aiden. They really rectified those mini games and made them better and quicker in the sequel and that is where number 2 is leagues better . However yes i did prefer the darker tone and aiden's absolutely OP silenced pistol and baton takedowns. Watch dogs 1 aloud you to go in full stealth if you wished but watch dogs 2 punishes that and really wants you to play around more with the hacking stuff as it is very hard to stealth in the sequel because eventually a certain number of tazer uses and everyones comms will be notified regardless of how sneaky you were. Which for a stealthy player like myself the sequel brought down my rating a few notches based on that alone. It looks like legion is rectifying that again and making stealth a little more viable this time without notifying the whole compound based on the enemy alert types i have personally seen so far. We will see though.
