Pros
Pro Fantastic visuals
A surreal looking world that is a dream state of the main character stands out as the best aspect of the game. From the slight movement of the weather to the different structures make for a fantastic looking environment that never allows the player to know what is coming next.
Pro Interactive, hackable city
Throughout the game players can use their in game phone to hack items in the city such as red lights or draw bridges.
Pro Fun multiplayer
The multiplayer is a bit like Dark Souls where other players can invade the players world with a twist of them hiding in plain sight while trying to hack the player.
Pro Limited co-op play
There is co-op offered in Watch Dogs but it is limited to specific points in the game where players can work cooperatively or competitively to complete a task.
Cons
Con Poor story
The voicework of the game is survivable but the story it tells is quite ridiculous. A storm chaser who lost his sister to then become one himself who then lets his daughter of the same name as his sister also take part in the work. Not only is it obvious and contrived but it feels like some poor writing from a low quality cable show.
Con Character is boring and gloomy
The character played in the game has a boring and uninteresting story as well is normally gloomy and downtrodden making it somewhat of a chore playing as such an uninteresting character.
