Video: Somewhat unlike its predecessor, Watch Dogs 2 has a personality! I would even go so far as to call it feisty.
Warning: minor Watch Dogs 2 spoilers ahead.
The embargo dam on Watch Dogs 2 preview footage recently burst, and some interesting tidbits have surfaced. Tonally, the game seems to take some cues from Grand Theft Auto, at least insofar as it lampoons a lot of pop culture stuff.
In the above video from Eurogamer, Watch Dogs 2 takes shots at everything from Donald Trump, to Martin Shkreli, to goddamn Knight Rider. Yes, the ’80s show about the talking car. I don’t really get it either.
In Trump’s case, specifically, there’s a fictional politician with a very “Make America great again”-like slogan. An early mission sees you graffiti the crap out of one of his billboards. Pretty on the nose! But, you know, obviously a little more engaged than the first Watch Dogs.
Most of these things are fairly low-hanging fruits, but it’s good to see some legitimate personality from the game. A few of the gags are actually kinda funny, even. I think I’m beginning to feel cautiously optimistic about Watch Dogs 2. How about you?

Of course it would. It supports BLM and is anti blue. I will enjoy playing this game and fighting the police.
Low hanging fruit?
Low hanging fruit?
Of course it does, everyone is making fun of the ridiculous orange clown.
When your other option is a smiling assassin with blood on their hands, it becomes a necessity.
