10 Reasons Watch Dogs 2 Is One Of The Best Sequels Ever

5. A World That Rivals GTA V's Los Santos

The world of Watch Dogs 2 is one of the most developed and true to life since Los Santos or Liberty City.

One of the most important things an open world game needs to achieve, is to make its world feel real. Not real in the sense that it accurately portrays real life, but contextual reality for the characters. There needs to be locales, landmarks, brands, radios and anything that shows actual characters exist.

Watch Dogs 2 achieves this remarkably.

One of the highlights of San Francisco is the civilians. There are so many unique individuals, locations and things to do that it almost puts Los Santos to shame. Exploring the world is genuinely interesting, because there is so much to see. Whether its Alcatraz or the Golden Gate Bridge, Watch Dogs 2 makes San Fran feel like an actual location.
