is recruiting gimmick or revolution?

Join the Resistance! Koos and Jelle have been able to hack into the latest game from Ubisoft last weekend. Watch Dogs Legion is set in a post-Brexit London centered around hacking. As a member of the hacker group Dedsec you stand up against the government. But you don’t do this as one and the same character. The Watch Dogs Legion gimmick is that you can recruit any “AI” in the game. At that moment this “AI” suddenly changes into a playable character. The question now is whether this recruiting is a gimmick or actually adds value to the gameplay. You will get the answer in this Watch Dogs Legion Premium Review.

Watch Dogs Legion is hacking into a post-Brexit London

Ubisoft always puts a lot of time into the worlds in which their games take place. This can be seen, for example, in how grand and detailed the Assassins Creed games were in ancient Egypt or Greece. How does Ubisoft depict London in this game? Everyone knows the hotspots such as Big Ben or Picadilly Circus. Have they been worked out just as beautifully and in detail this time as in the previous parts? Is the world alive too? And are the AIs you can recruit a bit different in character and do they really have their own story? Jelle and Koos looked at it extensively.

Masks, recruiting and more masks …

If there was one thing that stood out in the previous trailers of this game, it was the many masks, the neon colors and the fun. It was almost like Saints Row. But when Jelle recently a preview session of Watch Dogs Legion, he noticed very quickly that all this was not that bad in terms of shitty fun. Was that the part that Jelle was presented with in the preview session or is the whole game a lot more serious than previously thought? You can find all the answers in this extensive Premium review.
