Presentation
There is a great selection of music on the radio accompanying the game. This is mostly made up of UK indie and rock bands as well as some pop hits. People from other parts of the world may not be familiar with some of the songs, but they all fit the setting well. The developers also did a great job of capturing the London vibe. The vibrant and diverse city is recreated in a truly authentic way. You really get the feeling that this is a living, breathing world.
This decreased slightly due to inconsistent voice acting. Some characters sound great, but others have no emotion in their delivery. This is the only real downside to what is usually a great sounding game.
Fortunately, the same cannot be said of the graphics, which look superb. London is not a bright or vibrant city in terms of color, but it is animated with incredible realism. There is a great deal of detail in every aspect of the environment. But this isn’t always true of character models, which sometimes have some graphical issues.
Final verdict
Ubisoft has been stuck using the same basic sandbox project for some time, much to mockery from gamers. That’s why the company has made such efforts to update and improve series like Assassin’s Creed.
The measures they have taken with Watch Dogs: Legion are very successful. The ability to recruit any NPC and permanent deaths create a more compelling experience. However, the game is let down by its largely forgettable narrative and failure to innovate gameplay further. But it lays a good foundation for future releases and shows that different settings can work.
