Does Watch Dogs Franchise Deserve a Chance?

See for yourself, a comparison shot of E3 VS actual release. Textures and shading are clearly better in the E3 version. 

Part of being humble in life is sometimes being forgiving, even if it’s hard to do. With all the hype behind games these days followed along with true deceit it’s no wonder why the gaming community is as toxic as it is today. Games like No Man’s Sky and Watch Dogs are part of the guilty party, however why is it that we see a continuation in the series?

When we experience a game that wasn’t up to our expectations, there comes usually an angry crowd. Watch Dogs definitely had a hard time dodging evidence of a comparison shot of E3 versus gameplay, so why should we continue to trust a company like Ubisoft? It’s bad business practice to give money to the man who only gave you part of your package.

So what is it that enables developers like Ubisoft to come out with a sequel? Watch Dogs was not THAT bad of a game right? It’s my thoughts that a gaming company perhaps feels the need to redeem itself, or possibly they just want to milk the gaming marketbase, hard to say. I’m tired of seeing crap games followed up by a sequel- although Watch Dogs 2 is not entirely this case, it is something that I feel shouldn’t of deserved the hype it received that’s for certain.

Maybe it’s just me? I know I for one wouldn’t buy a sequel to No Man’s Sky for example but what can you do, some people will continue to love franchises that don’t necessarily deserve it or people feel the sequel of a game will be better or deliver the experience as it was intended to, but for me - too late is too late.

Share your thoughts with me either on Twitter or in the comments, I'm curious what you guys think!
