Story- The story of the game is pretty in depth and makes you curious from the start. You are immediately immersed into a setting that generates feelings of mystery and intrigue. As Aiden Pearce, you manipulate the setting of the city to your advantage through the use of a high-tech network that he is able to access through his phone. With this hacking ability, you quickly learn the background of Aiden's struggle of trying to protect his sister, nephew, and his past. After Aiden went through a tragic event (I won't give away spoilers to what it is) you are on a hell-bent mission to gain your revenge. It is the internal struggle that Aiden takes you on that sets the tone of the entire game.
Gameplay- The mechanics of the game are a crossbreed between Assassin's Creed, Grand Theft Auto, with a hint of Splinter Cell (the newer versions like Conviction and Blacklist). Most of the other people that reviewed the game felt that this was a bad thing, but in my opinion, what the hell is wrong with a combination of those three games? The free-running mechanics are smooth and sometimes Aiden's moves will make you say, "That was pretty damn cool". He may not be as swift as his Assassin's Creed brother titles, but he still gets the job done. The gun play is simple, yet effective. You can brandish a weapon and shoot any person you please, but you can also pull out your gun to serve as an intimidation factor (which exemplifies the ability to choose good or evil in the game). The car chases are fun and they serve the purpose and sometimes it feels as if you are actually hiding in the shadows from the authorities. The hacking is incredible. The ability to seamlessly hack damn near everything in the city while not having to stop to do so is incredible. It is a revolutionary trait that will probably be perfected and explored over the years.
Design/Presentation- The city of Chicago feels real and alive. You will walk down the streets and see people rapping on a corner, drinking a cup of coffee, talking on the phone (which you can hack and listen to), washing windows, and doing many more activities. It is the crowd mechanics where Ubisoft shines and allows you to immerse yourself into the game. The weather that you see in the game is great. A simple rain shower that blows through, to setting of the sun allows the city's design to really show. The graphics in the game are fantastic, although they may not be the next-gen experience we are looking for, are utilized very well. However, the physics that are in the game are stunning. The way the wind can blow Aiden's coat or dust in the street is something that should be noted and is refreshing to see. The lighting in the game is also exceptional and moves according to the surroundings.
In the end, if you are looking for a great game to buy on either the last gen or the next gen consoles, get Watch Dogs. It is an experience that can tailor to everybody's interests and there is always something more to do. I have played the game all night long and well into the afternoon (this is probably 14 hours so far) and I feel like I haven't scratched the surface. At this rate the campaign mixed with a handful of side quests should allow give you around 30 hours of game play. This doesn't include the online capabilities. I would review the online aspect of the game, but the servers were overloaded and I couldn't get through more than two games. From what I saw/experienced, it is fantastic and is an entirely separate game. So, the answer to the million dollar question (or 60 dollar question) is: Should I buy it? My answer plain and simple is, yes. You would be doing yourself and injustice not to play the game.
Here are the aspects of the game on a 1-5 rating.
Story: 4.6
Design:4.7
Gameplay: 4.6
Presentation: 4.8
So what are you waiting for? Get out there and start hacking.
The biggest issue for me, is that they could have done more with the hacking. It felt a bit to streamlined with your options. While it is fun to cause power boxes to explode your enemies and erupt steam pipes to disable cars, this can be repetitive. I wish the hacking could have more influence, I was hoping more along the lines of draining someones entire bank account into nothing or being able to call and threaten someones family. Possibly being able to find out where an enemy lived, and take them out at their home, instead of chasing them around the city. Here's hoping they get a little more in depth in Watch Dogs 2.
Overall the game is great, it is another Ubisoft success. It definitely does share some similar elements with games like Assassins Creed, but this is not a bad thing. If you are looking for a fun open world shooter with new elements and being able to use your environment to your advantage, you'll like this game. There are fun side instances, such of the privacy invasions to give an interesting break from the story as well.
As for the multiplayer, I did not delve too much into it, so I can not provide a full review on that aspect.
There are many side missions to be done giving players more than enough opportunities to gain XP and level up to earn skill points. Side missions include clearing Gang Hideouts, taking out Criminal Convoys and offers Fixer Contracts as well. Aside from the side missions and main story, there are also a good deal of mini games scattered around the city to keep the game moving even once it has been completed.
Shops and businesses give a player a chance to customize Aiden's appearance and his armory.
Aiden's hacking ability makes police chases and contracts very entertaining. Hack traffic lights to create massive pile ups, cause blockers to pop up to get enemies or the 5-0 off your tail. This is just one of the many features this game offers that separates it from anything else we've ever seen!
I highly recommend Watch Dogs!
