From the article - What makes an open world alive? It’s a difficult endeavor to try and create the illusion of a living world in a virtual environment. What does Skyrim, Los Santos or Dunwall have that we classify them as “Living worlds” as oppose to other games like Watch Dogs? While Watch Dog’s world of Chicago isn’t bad it’s not memorable either, where as the world of Columbia, Empire City and Pandora will not be forgotten.
If you are looking for a bargain, check out the huge discounts across the entire WatchDogs series on Steam.
With the world of information and technology, privacy and security growing every day, Watch Dogs deserves another chance in the spotlight, now more than ever.
The only Ubi title that deserves a faithful remake right now is Splinter Cell 1.
All 2014+ Ubi titles are just underwhelming. Especially ones from 2016+ are just cancer.
The fist watchdog game was the best by far
After that they weren't weird and annoying with that hipster stuff. Aiden was a badass.
From VG247: "When cars slide, they leave tyre marks. In a game like Driver, they’re an aesthetic touch, part of the inherent cool of a handbrake turn. But those dark shadows in the road also tell a story. From tyre marks, you can determine the speed of a vehicle, when it started to skid, and its ultimate direction of travel – long after the car itself has vanished into the distance."
Why did they stop making some of the best games ever? Driver was one of them.
A story driven game with pure driving gameplay. I'd love to see a new Driver game or a remake of the first one.
No game feels real...because, they are games...not life simulators......*drops mic*
To be fair no sandbox game feels real....real is boring. I can't walk around stealing cars and running over countless j-walkers in real life...I may want to but I don't...not until I go home and play almost any sandbox game ever made.
i never thought it should be real.
uh-oh, a game sold well! Here come the "THIS IS WHY THE GAME SUCKS" from the tiny penis gallery.
Why it shouldn't:
A) its fiction and suppose to be unreal giving us options we can't do in real life.
B) most importantly, its a video game. Its suppose to be a fun escape from the real.
In terms of pedestrian behaviour, this game feels more real than most sandbox games. The peds don't just walk around like zombies, they are conversing, on the phone, having a drink etc etc.
Most open world games fail in that department.
