    Such a fun game. I doubt the current ubisoft could create a comparable game. 2 was great for the size of it but felt a little lackluster in immersion, Legion was… ubisoft “capture zone, unlock tower” but cyberpunk-adjacent.

      The sequel disappointed me greatly. Haven’t even played Legion. The original story was so captivating and emotional. Took my by surprise and I was so invested in it.

        Legion is… bad. Every enemy is a bullet sponge, a “nonlethal” stun machine gun takes like 30 rounds to down a non-heavy enemy. it’s just a bunch of cycling through different specific areas, completing the objective , and getting away. The DLC prequel story with Wrench and Aiden is cool, but otherwise its standard ubisoft repetitive shlock.

        The art and environment is beautifully grungy though, and raytracing reflections are gorgeous. The general world building is interesting. There’s just no compelling plot.

        I’d love a big game with T-bone/ray Kenney as the main character (in a different area than Chicago, the second game mentions him messing around in NYC so I could see it), not just a DLC.

      I gave up with ubisoft after seeing that ac mirage had the same level of graphical detail as the original ac, but with a worse campaign, and a higher system requirement
