I am probably one of about 5 people that actually liked the first Watch Dogs Game as it brought something a bit different to the table (that was also interesting to me) and I would say that so far this Game looks like it's doing the same interesting ideas, but with a more whacky and zany cast.

It looks like it's a Game that's going to be fun, even if it isn't the most realistic or gritty Game in the world, and tbh I kinda miss that in modern AAA Video Games.
I've finally beat the Game.

It's definitely harder than the first Game imo, it did create some iconic levels from the difficulty curb though, in particular Alcatraz Island and the Boat mission towards the end of the Game were really fun to try and master.

And tbh whilst I did like Watch Dogs 1 & Aiden Pearce personally, I do think that Marcus and the other DeadSec members in Watch Dogs 2 are just a really fun unit to play around with and explore. The villain was really fun in a demented kinda way too.

I've heard that Watch Dogs: Legion is very experimental which has lead to controversy, but I am looking forward to playing it once I've come down from the Watch Dogs 2 high, if you didn't like Watch Dogs 1 because you found it to be a bit bland, then I recommend that you give Watch Dogs 2 a try as it's a lot more wild imo.

The only real flaws that I had with the Game were there needed to be more Operation Intels/side missions in the Game, especially compared to Mafia III which came out in the same year with a similar budget to Watch Dogs 2 and it had way more side content. And I personally would've liked the checkpoints to sometimes have been better placed when I was getting killed, like the mission where I'm having to go up to one of the enemy buildings on a Crane over and over again every time that I'm getting killed can be extremely annoying.

But tbf I suppose the flaws do add a charm to a Game rather than it feeling too mechanical in it's presentation.
