    Against my better judgement I grabbed that Watch Dogs game since it’s 85% off. I find the “humor” distressingly bad (LOL the computer said “fuck!” lmao) and for some reason the voice-acting is really grating on my nerves. But it’s fun to drive around causing chaos, and collecting weirdo hacker recruits like Pokemon.

    I also grabbed Dex but I only played a few minutes to test it out. Bonus points for having a native linux port though.

      I quite liked watch dogs 2. It’s not quite cyberpunk, as it’s set in present times (or near future) so it’s more like proto-cyberpunk. But the tech discussed and used is quite sensible and very on point with the way it is headed in current times.

        I vaguely remember being disappointed by 1 but liking 2 well enough.

        I’m several hours into Legion now and the writing hasn’t gotten any better, but I found a human statue street performer to recruit to my elite hacker squad so that’s cool.
