Almost like expecting a bombastic pepperoni pizza just to be greeted with a cold hot-pocket. Happens to play all the open-roam game cookbook with a deadpan fascination. The ease of hacking is just as effortlessly dandy as it is weightless, only adds a smidge of fascination on car-crashes. Somehow dynamic and incredibly bland all at once.

Isn't it strange that it has better shooting than hacking mechanics? May be the total opossite with Watch Dogs 2 which improves some aspects like stealth and hacking, and downgrades others such as the story and tone to some extent. Uh, still while sterile it has style. Yeah...it checks the open world boxes, but it adds something endearing by the end.

Maybe that's just me, but I kind of love this dumb deeply flawed game.

It really did! It had a smoother lock-on gunplay than the core performance of hacking. Robbing folks felt as interactive as a QTE. I guess i'm incredibly overwhelmed by it's hype train but it packs an affordable amount of silver linings, i found better enjoyment out of blowing electricity boxes on guards than doing maze minigames and that kinda stuff you don't get to do on GTA titles. Strangely indeed, shooting does check out.

That's a neat reminder that i gotta try WD2 btw.
