This game isn’t as big a step forward as the second. It’s lacking polish and there are glitches everywhere.
I was playing red dead 2 before wd so I maybe judging it unfairly.
Overall I like it, quite arcade like.

Finished watching DF’s review on performance.

Seems to run best on PS4 Pro. Though should perform better on PS5.

That said, lots of bugs & hard crashes with screen tear on base consoles doesn’t sound good.

Yeah I was looking into this one, but it's fallen to the bottom of the pile for now.

I found this watch dogs quite boring. Can’t see myself finishing it.

1. How many NPC abilities, weapons, traits, etc. are there, and are NPCs randomized or specific classes? If there's a specific trait I'm looking for, are there specific NPCs to look for? Maybe that's just for the more specialized characters. But for everyone else, if traits are randomized, how many unique combinations are there?

2. How many voice actors are there for the NPCs in the game?! Characters talk to each other and even to the AI.

NPC abilities, so far I've found about 20 variations that actually matter, some including weapons, special abilities like shocking anyone, and so on. You can also earn special agents through clearing areas. I earned a free John Wick like character that way. She just appeared in my list of agents to play.
Construction workers have nice abilities, along with Albion Armored agents.
Combinations? I think more will unlock as I play the main story. Right now, I earned all of the tech points I need.

Tech points upgrade your spider-bot drone, and abilities to hack and take over the enemy drones, which is awesome.

As a note, any agent can hack and control a flying large construction drone to ride on. Construction workers drones are the fastest though. Their special Nail Gun is like a real gun.

Lots of real guns in the game, but so far I'm unable to share them between agents most times.

You can adjust the clothing of any character you earn. Right now, some of my main agents dress in black with sun glasses and a vest similar to Neo from the Matrix.

I've noticed most agents are skilled with weapons, which is unrealistic, but still a relief when in combat. Some weapons are weaker than others.

Finding the tech points is a lot of fun IMO, requiring puzzle solving.

Instead of it being an integral part of the conversations, it’s like a group of teenagers have seen how many naughty words they can get in.

Agreed. There is unnecessary swearing that seems pointless in a simple sentence, but it's there anyway. Thankfully the main AI leader bot doesn't swear, and he talks the most so far for the side missions.

I'm finally going to start the main missions with the PS5 upgrade hopefully this Friday. So I'll see more of the swearing in the main story.

Yeah, like usually when a character is mad, they'll swear, but in this game, they're just talking calmly and then start swearing. I'm not affected by it personally, but I can understand why someone could be bothered by it a bit.

It's not too often. It's not like watching Midnight Run with Robert De Niro, which is probably the most swearing I've seen in a movie from the late 80s. Literally almost every sentence he's swearing.

Warning this game has an auto save glitch.

The game will say it’s lost connection, it will at some point crash and then when you reload it will load an auto save the last time it had connection to the server.

First time I only had to redo two missions, not to painful. Second time I had to redo about 5, bit of a pisser. Third time and I’m just about to finish the second to last mission and after the reload it puts me back 12 missions... **** that, out of the drive it comes, back in the box and as soon as lockdown ends here it’s getting traded in before it loses anymore value.

**** this peace of broken shit, I was enjoying the game but this is a piss take. Just watch the end on YouTube instead.

[Foggy]

Really not enjoying this, might wait until I get the PS5 and see if it works better but feels sluggish and unplayable currently with the constant screen tear and just bareable frame rate. I wouldn’t mind but the multi-character angle just doesn’t seem to be utilised well at all and the whole thing just appears clunky and messy. Strangely enough this wasn’t much of an issue with the second game.
