A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Looking for a game with a great story... Could it be Watch Dogs: Legion? (lemm.ee)

So two-part question here:

If you've played Watch Dogs: Legion, did you like it?

And especially, did you like it for the story?

This makes me think the game is not primarily about the story: https://opencritic.com/game/7405/watch-dogs-legion

I played WD2 and enjoyed that quite a bit though never finished it.

I want the next game I play on my PC (via Steam, etc...) to have a great story. Recommendations greatly appreciated.

Other games I've played with what I thought were great stories: Psychnoauts 2, Portal 2, Soma (though I'm not really into scary games), Firewatch, Metro all, The Talos Principle

Cheers,

The problem with Watch Dogs Legion is that all of the player characters are all procedurally generated, so while there's plenty of plot, it's pretty threadbare as a story.

Came here to say this. It hugely weakened any investment in characters and story, for me.

I would not recommend playing legion for the story. Or, arguably, at all - but particularly not for the story.

Good to know - thank you both.
