...I thought it looked interesting. Though the weird multiplayer thing did worry me a bit if you couldn't turn it off.

My friend got it yesterday and was playing the opening hour or so of it and idk, didn't really seem to grab me, though I was never really that interested in the game to begin with. Maybe because this is what I wanted it to be, but it isn't as super hackery/hack anything as I wanted, but that might be because he wasn't too far into it. Also the main character has a dead family backstory, which I honestly hope gets a twist to it, because the way it is presented seems like it would follow similar roots as every other backstory about a family dying on the main character. He does have a sister and nephew, which I thought was pretty interesting.

I think I might get it, I've stayed off the hype train so there's no big expectations for it to ruin. Not saying it would ruin them, mind you.

From what I'm hearing it's basically Assassin's Creed with a Person of Interest skin on. If you like the concept of that, have at it, otherwise it's back to Dark Souls or whatever.

I take it you don't like AC anymore?

I never did -- where'd you get that impression?

I actually didn't know so I guessed, seeing as the majority of people I know who are really into games did at one point.

Nah, I'm kind of the odd man out on this one. I don't really get the appeal.

Ah, it's all good. Different strokes and all that. I like it these days mainly because it's one the games that falls straight into how I play when given a choice which...is sadly not as common as I'd wish.

What do you like about it?

I remember when the first game was announced it was briefly discussed as being a potential successor to the Thief series (though that was unfounded.)

Re: so um Watch Dogs

I liked..a lot, but mainly the duel story-lines, and the fact you could be as sneaky as you wanted to be without there usually being too huge a penalty if you decided not to do that...outside of a few missions that weren't too bad.

Which I know isn't the best description but I'm not sure how else to put it.

Yeah, I remember hearing something about that, but I didn't pay that much attention to it.

I liked it for the same reasons, and also the open world environments and the historical settings.
Granted, from what I can tell, Dark Souls would make one of my veins expplode from pure rage and frustration.

Oh yes - the history is amazing, and from what I've heard/seen they do put a lot of work into being as accurate as they can be! Which makes me little history nerd heart happy.


I've pretty much heard the same thing about Dark Souls which is why I've avoided that series so far.

Have any recs though? I'm replaying [a modded to hell] skyrim, but I'm looking for something new once I finish that.

In terms of open world, might I suggest Crackdown? It's pretty damn old but I find it to be immensely satisfying. Saints Row 4 has Crackdown's core mechanic refined but I prefer Pacific City's design to Steelport.

Started watching a Let's Play and all I could think was that it was both overly complicated and incredibly boring. And here I really thought I'd like the hacker and informational aspect, but it really come across as "computers are magic" in execution.
