Who's watching the WatchDogs: Legion

                                ***WARNING*** Possible spoilers ahead...

WatchDogs: Legion is about London at some point in the not too distant future.  There has been an attack and DedSec is fit to blame.  It's up to random strangers to prove DedSec innocent.  Because who better to do your dirty work than some rando off the street?

WatchDogs: Legion is every bit its predecessors.  If you enjoyed WatchDogs and WatchDogs 2, then you should enjoy legion.  The biggest difference is that this game doesn't exactly follow a single protagonist.  You are not Aiden trying to vindicate himself and revenge his family...  You are not a group of hackers trying to take down the Silicon Valley nut jobs...  Instead you are just some random folks who may or may not have a reason to help DedSec.  Each person you recruit has some sort of function of their life that comes into play so choose your team wisely!

The game plays well.  Quite a bit of loading on the PS4 although each load does not take too long.  Hopefully remedied by the PS5 when it releases.  The hacking is mostly the same from previous games.  You have a primary button that you can tap to do the most relevant action at the time or you can hold to open a small menu of choices, either bomb or attract, that sort of thing.  The melee combat does seem to be a bit wonky.  You can dodge incoming attacks but the dodge seems to get stuck on a grab every time.  The driving is still great.  I can't drive to save the pedestrians life in these games but I enjoy how everything reacts when stuck!

**EDIT**  PS5 Legion played...  Load times are MUCH faster.  Much much faster.  Almost not noticeable at all by comparison.

The worst part so far is that they delayed multiplayer until December.  Now I am the first to admit that I disliked very much the multiplayer aspects of the first game because it seemed like folks would just camp out at a mission and hack you right when you are starting.  I turn multiplayer off because I am trying to do something here!  But this one announced co-op multiplayer.  So I can hack these places with a friend?  Awesome!  Nope... It's just Chuck Testa...  At least until December...

All in all the game is very much what you can expect from a Watch Dogs game.  All the greats are back and more has been added in the form of drones and spider-bots.  It has plenty to do and you can basically customize your experience a bit with the recruitment.  So I guess... Lets save London!
