Watch Dogs: Legion is a 2020 action-adventure game published by Ubisoft and developed by its Toronto studio. It is the third instalment in the Watch Dogs series, and the sequel to 2016's mh:awesomegames:Watch Dogs 2. Set within a fictionalised representation of a future, dystopian London, the game's story focuses on the hacker group DedSec as they seek to clear their names for a series of bombings that impacted the city, as well as liberating its citizens from its surveillance state by an oppressive private military company.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) The rewards here have been made more difficult to obtain than even the first game, to the point that one could now choose buy the rewards as microtransactions.
 * 2) Chunky driving controls, even though they have been fixed in Watch Dogs 2.
 * 3) The story is even more paper thin than the first game and involved a lot of boring, reptitive and excessively short mission styles involving recruiting and building a team.
 * 4) * Even with the difficulty spike after the 404 and Skye Larson story arcs, the mission structure still remains the same.
 * 5) Speaking of the NPCs, there is a severe lack of variety regarding the NPC roster.
 * 6) * Other NPCs already recruited wouldn't react like allies when the current operative runs into them while dealing with enemies.
 * 7) * The hacker class of NPCs are considered extremely overpowered, due to how much the game requires them for it to be beaten.
 * 8) Broken shooting mechanics. It is difficult to aim at a enemy and shoot even with assist on high.
 * 9) The open-world map design, although a good idea on paper, results in inconsistent pacing within parts of the story.

Good Qualities

 * 1) Great soundtrack by Stephen Barton.
 * 2) The relationship between players and the characters they recruited stays developed, like the first two games.
 * 3) The worldbuilding has noticeably improved, with the addition of a more complex and interconnected character map.
 * 4) The inclusion of permadeath, which gives the already bland recruitment missions a bit more challenge.
