It's definitely Watch Dogs 2 as the first Watch Dogs was never an amazing game IMO. Not that Watch Dogs 2 is amazing, it's just that I prefer the setting and I think they really improved upon the first game. Watch Dogs Legion seems like it took a left turn in many ways and the feedback has been rather poor for it, so I can't say that I have any interest in that game.
It'd be the first game but that's a technicality more than anything else as it's the only one I've played. It was quite fun though but nothing special
I had to vote for Watch Dogs. However, I only played it for 1 hour total. Might go back to it one day.
I think the only one I have played is the first watch dogs
Played first 2, voted 2, just cos more to do, but I remember both as very repetitive
I like the one with Anne Robinson and matt alwright
The first had the best story. The second went a long way to building a living world. The third takes world simulation to a new level.
The first might have had the best fast action. But I'd give the edge to Legion. It's cool happening across a team member or someone threatening a team member. The couple times I used my Albion recruit to infiltrate a police or military building felt like Hitman when using a disguise.
I'm playing it stealthy and non-lethal the first time. If I can get a Series X, I will start again and go lethal.
Never played any of them...
I would say the first..
For as much as I'm loving the recruit anyone mechanic and exploring London in Legion, I also can't overlook the things that are missing that would have made it better. I'm not talking about the missing hacks, but the lack of races and other side events that were present in Watch Dogs 2. I can understand why the Driver SF style events aren't present, but lack of races - even if only one per district - is felt. Even drone races. There are people who specialise in drone racing, yet the event itself seems to be missing.
Watch Dogs 2 was a great improvement for me, and I'm sad they went back to the dark and edgy vibe for Legion. I hope it doesn't kill the series as there's a lot of potential in it.
Part 2 for sure. The first was a decnt game but the second was an improvement in almost every way. The more I see of Legions the less I want to play it though lol. If it comes to one of the subscription services I'll check it out but seems like a pass for me.
Crikey. I'd forgotten I even played WD2. Had to check my achievement list to remind me. I remember the games had potential to be great, but ended up being a bit 'meh'.
Absolutely hated the first one, and enjoying London in Legion, so that's the winner for me.
I know I completed the second iteration... but remember so little about it.
I'm holding off on Legion until next week when my XSX arrives but love both 1&2, having beat 2 about 2 weeks after it came out. I only finished the original Watch Dogs last week and ended up enjoying it quite a bit, even though I ignored it for about 5 years. Both are great, 2 just felt more polished (and a bit more silly at times).
