Watch_Dogs wasn't even a bad game. People hated it just because it was made by Ubisoft
Nah it was
It advertised it self on hacking the environment to use against enemies & GRAPHICS, it didn't deliver on either of them
It was just another shitty sandbox 3rd person shooter
>>319873834
It delivered on graphics and hacking the environment. I don't know how you played it but hacking the environment was an essential part to any mission; and free roam for that matter.
>>319873664
>try to go to north side of Chicago
>end up in the woods of Indiana
This is just indicative of the fact that they out no effort into making an interesting world, which is to say nothing of the bad physics, lazy graphical infidelities and boring missions. Oh and protagonist was fucking awful, yeah it was a bad game
>>319873968
>It delivered on graphics
No
>hacking the environment
Nope, it was just another shooter with a hacking gimmick that people only used when was mandatory
it was alright
nice tire smoke
>>319873968
We had more than enough threads about how disappointing the graphics were before it came out.
>>319873664
I used to look forward to ubisoft games. I'd welcome a return to form.
Faggot
>>319874092
It had great graphics
>>319873664
>bad gameplay
>bland story
>most side missions are car chase and driving isn't the strong suit of the game
>piss easy hacking
>>319874092
>he couldn't into stealth
>he blames the game for his lack of patience and skill
It was a boring game and I love sandboxes.
The story wasn't engaging at all and that's literally the only thing it had going for it outside the sandbox since there was nothing else to do.
>>319874258
>piss easy hacking
What did you want? Some skyrim-tier lockpicking mini game every time you hacked?
>>319874315
wait,there were mini games , but they were fucking connecting pipes for the flow of "hacking stuff" , the hacking was piss easy and if you think other wise you should not play any video games that require "skills"
Look - Tumblr .gifs are bad enough; don't start posting Tumblr webms as well.
Aiden Pearce is the worst player character I've had the pleasure of controlling in a video game.
I thoroughly dislike him
>Pick it up on sale
>Its OK
>Rain is comfy as fuck
>Gameplay is too rooty tooty point and shooty
>Stealth options are much more fun like ghosting the courtyard into the projects without being seen
>Not enough ways to fuck with the guards and make them turn on them
If Ubi made it more like Hitman and Batman's predator system where you could really fuck with the AI, it would have been better but it's just a GTA clone with good ideas
Online invasions were sometimes fun though
>Go into someone's game
>Causing havoc at an intersection blowing things up
>Drive up to the traffic lights like an AI would
>Stay in car
>Watch him go insane trying to blow up each side of the intersection
>Never get caught
>Peel off away as soon as I have the data
>Sees me at last minute and starts shooting but I disappear around the corner and hit the escape radius
>Hate mail instantly in inbox
>>319874315
Or maybe for the game to find a new idea beyond shitty repetitive mini game for using a feature as central to its universe and narrative...
>>319874483
i can second this nigga
>>319874606
like what?
>>319874654
there is a game called hacknet , i don't know if it was released at that time , but if they want to make a sequel they can use its gameplay (for hacking)
>>319873664
it is /pol/ approved
>>319874748
that would never work
>>319874483
Aiden did literally everything wrong and is incapable of realizing that he's a big ruinous failure. I kept waiting for his Spec Ops: The Line revelation and it never properly came - he had a brief moment of clarity after rescuing Jacks, and then went right back to screwing everything up.
The bones of a better story were there, but Watch_Dogs seemed to want us to believe that Aiden was a real hero.
I really liked it
First game I played on my new gpu and it looked great
Water was fantastic, night time was beautiful, rain looked great
Hacking insanely fun when used to mess with the npcs
Stealth was awesome, story was intriguing and I hope WD2 just goes full modern day ass creed
Physics were hilarious, digital trips were amazing
Tps mechanics were pretty solid and worked great
Aiden wasn't as bad as everyone says, he's as annoying and a self centered prick as John Marston or Niko Belic
Performance is obviously targeted towards 30fps
Overall it's much better than gtav
>>319874903
then what would , would be better than connecting pipes
>>319873664
No, I hate it because (this is PC stuff only, who cares).
>>319873664
It's not worth more than $15
I had fun with it though because I pirated it and pretty much only used the silenced pistol the entire game and felt operator as fuck
>>319874748
Are you actually fucking stupid? How the fuck would that work?
>>319875010
did you just compare it to gta v?
>>319874654
I don't know, anything.
Hacking in any game is always shitty as fuck.
So, either they completely get rid of it, replacing it with a skill check if rpg (not working for watch dogs obv) or find something that is not really a minigame or a fucking puzzle, but more like an enigma, a problem to solve.
But it's the antithesis of fun for 99% of the population, including me if it repeats more than 5 times. So I would vote in favor of a simple option to bypass these fucking minigame completely once you've reached a certain point in the game.
>>319875097
Everyone did when it was released and I did too
I liked WD more
>>319874572
>>319875010
>>Rain is fantastic
This. I loved walking about the streets creating mini electrical disasters and watching the passers-by react to them under the rain. Hella comfy.the edgy hacker gril is also hot
>>319875078
>realism
its a hacking simulator and the game is about fucking hacking , but it instead focuses on cover/shoot mechanism (to please the mass audience) they can make the game much unique with these elements , you have your opinion but you look like a fucktard to me
>>319875217
i never played the ps3/360 version so i can't tell you have your opinion , but i think gta is a much better ip as whole
>>319875245
No one except you would like that. Literally no one.I hope you are not in the game industry because if you think that is a good feature you are only ever going to sell one copy. To yourself.
>>319875218
Badboy17 deserved better
I kept thinking they were gonna hatefuck

>I hate it because hacking is piss easy
>Implying if you have a magic hack phone you wouldn't have quick buttons for specific tasks
>>319875217
i enjoyed Watch_Doges
but no it is not GTA5imo
>>319874239
Good bait.
>>319875340
no i am not and the game was marketed as a new IP focused on realistic hacking with tps features but it turned out to be the opposite , if you see most people's problem with the game is "piss easy hacking" and also >opinions
>>319873664
it was pretty bad
>>319875327
I dunno
I hate how modern rockstar games control
Characters are too heavy and sluggish to move, aiming and shooting is really awkward, driving is far too realistic while not having enough realistic elements
Also I hate how the RAGE engine looks and fuck chromatic aberration
Watch_Dogs isn't necessarily badly made as a game, it's just really really boring.The actual gameplay is entirely competent, but incredibly generic, and the story isn't even funny-bad. It's just bad.
>>319875341
>Badboy17 deserved better
No, she didn't. She got what she had coming to her for withholding the truth.
>>319875596
>green text did not work
>start game
>do first part
>get in to car
>worst driving of any open world game i've ever played
>uninstalled
>it wasn't a bad game
>it was made by Ubisoft
Pick one and only one!
>>319875498
Yeah, it's better
>>319875716
But she's cute
Why is ubisoft the only western dev left that can do cute females?
Naughty Dog too actually
>>319875828
it was a bad game and made by ubisoft , but i think ubi is learning from its mistakes , look how good ac syndicate is (comparing to unity) , just give them some time to get there shit togther
>>319873664
If it wasn't that bad then why was I bored of it in the first hour? I hate when games do this, just like Skyrim, they give you an awesome intro mission and basically after that you've already seen pretty much everything and all the other shit you do feels underwhelming.
>>319875826
Oh wow, somone who never played gtaiv
The hacking was just open doors/press buttons from slightly further away than in other games.
>>319875885
>But she's cute
And it was blatantly obvious that that's the only reason Aiden suddenly decided that she didn't need to pay in blood for Lena's death! If Damien got some rocking implants, the entire plot could've been avoided.
>>319875885
fallout 4 has some cute girls , curie and piper ,game and other companions are shit
ACG made a Walking the Walk video on WD and it honestly made me realize how much detail was put into the game but went unappreciated because of graphics fiasco.
>>319875979
>GTA IV driving was bad
Stop this meme
>>319874239
pic not related?
>>319876114
gta iv driving is just pure shit, it's not realistic, it's just horrid
>>319873664
It was meh.
Not bad but not good either. It certainly didn't live up to its hype and potential and just turned out to be a very mediocre game. I played through it once, kinda enjoyed, but never touched it again after finishing the main story. The physics sucked by the way. Plus the story wasn't interesting and forgettable.
>>319876032
Curie is cute
Piper a shit, A SHIT
>>319873664
>People hated it just because it was made by Ubisoft
Nothing wrong with that.
>>319875979
But GTA IV is my favourite game. Please don't say bad things about it.
>>319875960
>look how good ac syndicate is
If they were truly learning, they'd stop making so many fucking AC games in the first place.
>>319876032
> has some cute girls
> literally names 2/3 of the feminine cast of this game
Tough being straight in 2015...
>>319876034
I'm torn. People were right to get mad at Ubi for screwing with the graphics the way they did, but on the other hand... Watch_Dogs with crippled graphics is still a really fucking beautiful game.
>>319874843
Someone post that one video where a guy goes around shooting all the sjw people.
>>319876403
she is cool
Way too mediocre. The only good part of it is that they really did a great job at those pedestrian animations. They were varied as fuck and really made the world seem alive (until they start breaking apart and you get people sweeping floors without brooms, cups of coffee floating around without a person holding it etc.)
Everything else it did was mediocre. Money and weapons acquisition didn't seem to have a place at all, the story was all over the place, the characters were unlikable for the most part (especially Aiden) and the gunplay was barebones without even any satisfying guns.
I guess the digital drug trip minigames were kinda fun too. The Spider Bot thing and dodging robots in the city were fun.
>>319876474
Since you asked nicely, ok
>>319876501
yeah you have a point bro
>>319876603
yup
>>319876684
Wish granted.
>>319873790
>Ifunny
Underage faggot spotted
>>319876885
took me until "Canadian" to catch on to the joke
>>319873664
Graphics were shit unless you turned on the options in the ini called "For E3 demo, not needed." or what ever the fuck, driving felt like ass. gunplay was mediocre, story was bland because "muh womin in vidja." hacking could have used a bit more work but what ever.
Why try to make a gta type of game but not include the things gta has to make it fun. fucking retarded. fuck ubisoft.
>>319877157
When you turn that shit on everything is too blurry. If they left it on at launch everyone would make fun of it for being blurry. It looks nice but affects gameplay severely.
>>319877157
>story was bland because "muh womin in vidja."
Come again?
>>319877157
no, the story was bland because Aiden is a boring protagonist and it was written by a team of like, 30 people who couldn't agree on what direction the story should go in
>>319876885
Thanks, family
>>319873664
It looks kind of bad, and the "WE R UNANIMOUS XD" setting is kind of bad, but it was ok
>>319877582
playing as /pol/ incarnite enriches the story imho
I never got the hate. It's certainly no GTAV but it was a fun urban open world game. I'll probably replay it in a year or two.
