Honest question, do people really dress like this? Because I have never seen anyone dress like this and I live in NYC.

 

[Hag]

Why this game try so hard to be cool? lol

Waiting gameplay vids after WD1 fiasco

 

[Davide]

Looks like inFamous Second Son characters but even more annoying looking.

 

[Breakfast at Noon]

A new Desmond game..

I just want a GRIT remaster :'(

 

[Darryl M R]

Will the only way to get the Zodiac extra mission is to buy the SF edition or pre-order from Gamestop?

 

[Orochinagis]

I am starting to miss the female prot from the first game...

 

[The Albatross]

Screenshots from the OP, like of San Francisco Golden gate bridge, look great... but I just can't get excited for Watch Dogs because it's got that Ubisoft mediocrity on it.

Thing with this is that phones don't even have ctrl buttons ...

 

[Solrac]

ill wait for the downgrade edition

 

[Angelus Errare]

Best thing about this game is you can customize the character's outfit. So I'm sure there's a store that sells gaming graphic tees, new balances, and blue jeans.

I wear that beanie that came with it and I got demin like that so yes.

Delsin's look was actually pretty tame compared to these guys. His clothes actually matched.

Looks pretty regular albeit the pins.

 

[Pixel Fist]

Maybe you would all prefer the main character to be wearing boot cut jeans, walking boots and a Regatta fleece? He could be called Colin and his hobbies are collecting moths and jigsaw puzzles of the English countryside.

 

[sackninja]

The protaganists fit the whole "fight the power" themes way better than generic video game protaganist in the first game.

Yes.

Lol

 

[KinofChaos]

You are in CTRL....that is so seriously cheesy lol. Box Art looks awful to me, but it's just box art.

 

[Strider311]

Oh god it looks like such a fucking douchebag game

U R C0RR3C7. This thing's Douchebag levels are reaching critical mass.

 

[Davide]

Perfect

 

[DoctorFling]

I would love it if Ubisoft just made a licensed game of the film Hackers. That would be a cooler tone for the series.

 

[DeathSparks]

You win the internet today, LOL

 

[marmoka]

I haven't watched the trailer yet, and I'm already hyped with those screenshots and boxart.

 

[Diancecht]

I am surprised. They have actually managed to create a more douche-looking character than Aiden.

 

[Deleted member 10571]

I can't believe GAF is falling for this again lol. Game's gonna be meh and you know it!

 

[HighResTomato]

Kinda looks like the MC could be Spanish? That would be pretty cool if it's true, but it could just be the lighting.

It's the lighting, He's black. Which is brave from Ubisoft, too bad about the skinny jeans.

 

[FrontalMonk]

I love how the game's motivation for the main character is that he's been accused of a crime he didn't commit.

I'm wondering how many crimes he'll commit in the process of clearing his name, if he even tries.

 

[brawly]

Y'all said Aiden was a boring white man. Careful what you wish for.

 

[Nokterian]

Sop it begins the greatest memes of all time..such great work bravo!

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

I can't believe GAF is falling for this again lol. Game's gonna be meh and you know it!

O shit how's the story! How much customization is there.gameplay? Is the driving improved... O wait...

 

[Reallink]

2hyp4me

 

[Eradicate]

LOL!!! Great!

 

[Bad_Boy]

Pre-3 is killing all the hype for actual e3 for me.

but this looks cool.

 

[kanuuna]

I don't think I've heard one line from that protagonist, but I already hate him. The whole cast on show in the trailer, really.

The first one at least had one slightly interesting character in Jordi.

 

[The Flash]

Oh hey it's C-3P0

 

[RedAssedApe]

Honest question, do people really dress like this? Because I have never seen anyone dress like this and I live in NYC.

seattle grunge or something

 

[eXistor]

Yeah it's so contemporary it hurts. It wants to be so cool, but ends up looking lame as hell. But then it's Watch_Dogs, the first game being one of the blandest games I've ever played. I'll pass.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

That character design. Is this what French-Canadian people think Americans are like? Good lord...

 

[Evil's Bane]

Honestly I think this game is just embracing the stupidity of the first one and not taking itself so seriously and that's nothing but a good thing. Looks fun. Protagonist looks way better than Aiden did in the first one. There's lots more color. They seem to have avoided bullshots. I don't see much wrong here. It seems like they've learned a lot from the first one.

 

[Calm Mind]

Pray for optional clothing.

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Pray for optional clothing.

Its in the 7 min gameplay trailer

 

[Kinyou]

Not really a fan of the design of the side characters. Definitely a downgrade from Clara. But also makes sense that they keep the style consistent within the group.

Best thing about this game is you can customize the character's outfit. So I'm sure there's a store that sells gaming graphic tees, new balances, and blue jeans.

The video showed that you can also buy crocs if you feel masochistic

 

[SuperDowns]

This game is gunna flop so hard.

Oh Junior.... nice driveby shitpost non-sense.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Oh hey it's C-3P0

Ha-ha, love it

 

[platocplx]

wow.

 

[vypek]

The tone in here seems vastly different to the tone in the live stream reveal thread.

 

[Steve McQueen]

No pun intended but I wonder why there is a sequel. Did Watch Dogs sell big numbers?

 

[zackmorris]

Looks lame.

Well based off the first one, it's not that surprising.

 

[KingJ2002]

I like the designs... they actually look like they're a part of the bay culture... a little extra with the details.... but considering they need to stand out... I get it.

Ultimately their personality is going to ensure they're memorable or not but yeah.... I like it.

As for the graphics... I guess we'll never get this:

 

[bobbychalkers]

Style wise it looks like they mixed streetwear with a pinch of grunge and some 90s cyber hacker imagery. It makes sense in context seeing as they wanted to invent this subculture around this specific group of hackers. If you removed the facemask and gave him a pair of plain joggers without the deadsec logos, he would look like some random 20-something in a major city.

Best thing about this game is you can customize the character's outfit. So I'm sure there's a store that sells gaming graphic tees, new balances, and blue jeans.

shots fired

 

[Blackleg-sanji1]

Was their best selling new ip before the division.

 

[Phamit]

No pun intended but I wonder why there is a sequel. Did Watch Dogs sell big numbers?

yes, sold 4 Millions in it's first week. It was Ubisofts fastest selling game ever at time of release

 

[cyress8]

One huge thing that is bothering me with this game and the box art. Is it summer time? Going by the foliage and the npcs it is pretty hot outside. Some of the main characters seem to wear pretty thick clothing for the summer time.

Just feel like they will have a heat stroke in that many layers of clothing.

 

[vypek]

No pun intended but I wonder why there is a sequel. Did Watch Dogs sell big numbers?

Pretty sure it was a multi-million seller. The existence of a sequel is more than likely because they projected that it will make a nice profit for them.
