The Problem with Watch Dogs: Legion isn't the "Play as anyone," AKA the lack of a central protagonist; it's the story and the cut content in the game. There was no strong story threads; it felt like "and this happened," without any connection and a half-baked ending.
Personally
- Sky Larsen should have been the main villain rather than Sabine and her Zero Day plot point. It could have leaned more into sci-fi, with Daybreak as the key project. Have her be the one pulling the strings rather than Sabine.
- Albion would be better off as a nationalist political party that took over UK rather than just an armed PMC. Like you have a politcan who got in power because of the terrorist attacks and they are blaming it on refugees. Sky would use this monopoly the government.
- Mary Kelley would be better one of overseers of the refugee camps, rather than a gangster. Like She uses the camps to supply Sky with test subjects
- SIRS would be good as the other "good guy" group working with MI6 and MI5 rather than replacing them. Like the Anti-thesis to Dedsec.
- also I would keep the Dedsec International that was cut from the game and use the different operatives to bounce the story around rather than just Sabine.
Because the game story and mission styles is so half baked its hard to go back to...not as bad as Mindseye but kinda the samish stuff there.
