random thought but
watch dogs 2 is an extremely good game and i wish my laptop had the specs to run it decently
it's cyberpunk but set in the current era
and super duper fun to play
the intro is soooooo perfect and does everything it can to set the stage for the game
i even turned it into a vantaradio bumper lmao
watch dogs 1? pretty bland, by comparison
watch dogs legion? never played it so i can't really say, but from what i've heard the whole "story with no characters" thing didn't pan out too well for em
but also watch dogs legion is just straight up cyberpunk set in the future
i'd argue that a work doesn't have to be set in the future to really be cyberpunk anymore
technology has progressed so much and capitalism has degraded our standard of living so much that in present society all the themes are basically there already
