Watch_Dogs was unveiled in 2012, providing a glimpse into the power of next-gen tech via graphics arguably stealing the show in its E3 presentation. The hype ended up a disservice to the finished game, with players and reviewers disappointed at the visual downgrade alongside the relatively cookie-cut gameplay, middling characters, and generic revenge plot.
Thing is, upon reflection a decade later, standing the test of time is the prescience of Watch_Dogs’ themes. The game provided a new spin on contemporary concerns: privacy in a digital age, corruption, data responsibility, surveillance, and the moral responsibility of those with the power to access said data.
Worryingly, much of the tech on display in Watch_Dogs wasn’t far removed from the real world. This feature highlights the themes of Watch_Dogs and discusses whether they were indeed ahead of their time.
