WATCH DOGS LEGION
Let me tell you about Abe Welch. He’s a hired goon who is now in a hospital. I put him there after performing a melee takedown on him during a mission in Watch Dogs Legion. It was at this point I decided to save him to my collection of tracked people in the game.
A menu screen tells me he hates Dedsec, no surprise after I knocked him out. But, having hacked into the hospital, I can now prioritize his care, which will begin to change his mind. From there I can help him with the other troubles in his life, like his sister who’s being harassed. Eventually I will have the chance to win Abe to my cause. If all goes well, he’ll have gone from being a random enemy goon to my new playable character.
has no default experience. You’ll have a chance to surrender to your enemies so that doesn’t always happen, but I did experience it in my 45-minute demo. I recruited a person, watched her liberate Camden Market from goons (and put Abe Welch in the hospital), then saw her get double crossed and shot dead in front of a massive security force. I was a little bit attached. The game’s big idea is working.
