Reality vs Adventure Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 There are assassin side missions in Watch Dogs Legion which brilliantly ties the two together. I want to see more of that; just feels like a dream come true. It came as a surprise to me when the missions became available. But it just fits in so perfectly with the assassins vs the templars and democracy vs tyranny, with reference to AC Syndicate which takes place in late 1800's London whereas WDL is a futuristic London. Thanks for that surprise Ubisoft! I think this really is going to be a revolution to gaming what Ubisoft is doing and with all the new features in gaming that Watch Dogs Legion has. I think they should really tie in the two series. If Assassin's Creed had a futuristic setting, then WDL would be the perfect example of it. And by all means, I don't mean to assume WDL is just like AC at all; because there is so much more to Watch dogs Legion that sets it apart. And pretty much sets it apart from any game. I think WDL has the best take on any futuristic setting in any game made. Well, my gaming world got whole lot interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StaceyPowers Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Watch Dogs Legion is my first Watch Dogs experience AND actually my first encounter with Assassin's Creed. So, I can't really give an informed opinion, but from what I can tell, the tie-in integrates really well. I think you could be right that a completely integrated game could work well!

Shagger Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 For me, the Aminus is already more than enough lashings of the modern world in AC, the last thing an AC game needs is more of that. But that's me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 I never played watch dogs, I've played different categories of AC, starting from Assassins Creed Valhalla, AC I and II, and the origins. If the merging makes sense, then their is no problem to that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Both are quite different so I would definitely hate to see both games merged. It's fine to have a mission or two that might be "linked" or just refers to the other game. But I wouldn't go as far as trying to combine the both.

Kane99 Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 If I remember correctly, they are both in the same universe. I think there have been references to Assassin's Creed in Watch Dogs 2, but I forget. Either way, same company, so they could make it happen if they wanted to. And honestly it could work. Consider the newer Watchdogs, Legion. I'm pretty sure you can assassinate people in Watch Dogs, at least some missions, so it's not far from possibility.

Empire Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I can't find a source for you right now but it was confirmed multiple times that any references the games make to each other are Easter eggs and nothing more. So officially they aren't in the same universe but they really should be. On a sidenote, it would be so cool to see a Watch Dogs/AC crossover.

killamch89 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 I'd much rather they stay separate entities - I like them just as they are. Who knows with Ubisoft though? If it would make them a lot of money, they'd merge both in a heartbeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 One of the character NPC you can play after finishing some assassin missions is Darcy, who has assassin gear and cool abilities. Darcy unlocks in the story, but you need the season pass to be able to play her. Meanwhile, playing AC Syndicate is even more interesting now because now I'm thinking about how Victorian London and the fight with the templars, is now a horror filled dystopian London in WD Legion trying to get back the city. And comparing the scenery of the two games is interesting too. AC Syndicate still has some of those landmarks in futuristic London. So it's like a couple hundred years apart. I like things like that to compare differences of past, present, future even if it's fiction. To be able to play as an assassin all geared up in WD Legion to me is a major treat. It just brings a level of immersion that is legendary in my personal gaming experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted April 17, 2022 Share Posted April 17, 2022 Personally, I'm looking forward to having such crossover between Watch Dogs and Assassin's Creed. It's gonna add more perks to the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 Such collaboration will make sense no doubt, it will help reignite watchdog back to it's base, it's watchdog series looks similar to what rockstar built, that's why we are anticipating for a collaboration within them.

Ubisoft would never get into something that's not going to pay them well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted October 28, 2022 Author Share Posted October 28, 2022 Watch Dogs has become one of my all time favorite series and I seriously think my fascination with AC and WD are on a level of awesome that I have to say are rattling my brain in a complete symbiotic relationship.

It's awesome Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch Dogs 2 for me. I really enjoyed every minute I played the game. That is until I encountered a glitch at one point that resulted in a lot of progress to be lost. I thankfully didn't lose too much, but it was quite annoying to say the least. But yeah, I could see Watch Dogs and AC mixing well together. I wish they'd try it out.
