What players say
There is so much freedom in Watch Dogs 2 that one can overlook any other issues. It's a well-designed game that does what it sets out to do in a slightly more light-hearted manner than the first iteration. I tend to get tired of open-world games, and this one is no different, but props has to be given for making a world that isn't too big with so many NPC interactions and ways to change the environment. No other...

One of the best open world games I've ever played which often goes under the radar. There are so many fun activities you can do and the story is good too. It's not the greatest story imo because some missions are genuinely fun to do whereas some felt like I'm doing them just for the sake of doing it. Overall it's a great and fun game that I'd definitely recommend.
Unpleyable on GeforceNow Ultimate due to the broken, flickering skybox. Why is it even being sold as a compatible game?
