DedSec determines that the new ctOS can covertly harm innocent citizens across the city, and thus decides to bring about awareness of their goals through conducting a social media campaign to recruit, by exposing corruption and crimes being conducted through the system, before bringing down Blume. </p><p>After several successful exposures, Josh discovers a number of irregularities in their follower numbers.

href="/wiki/Destructoid" title="Destructoid">Destructoid</a></i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'</span>s Zack Furniss praised the sequel's tonal shift to a lack of seriousness and stated that its protagonist Marcus Holloway boasted a similar charm and wit. He thought well of the hacking component as it was suggestible to multiple fields of use, and enjoyed its nature of compatibility with a non-lethal approach; in fact, Furniss felt that for this reason firearms could have been excluded entirely. The driving was lauded as an improvement from the first game, yet technical issues like <a href="/wiki/Glitch" title="Glitch">glitches</a> and low <a href="/wiki/Frame_rate" title="Frame rate">frame rates</a> were cited as shortcomings.<sup id="cite_ref-Destruct_71-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Destruct-71"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>70<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> To Matt Buchholtz, writing for <i><a href="/wiki/Electronic_Gaming_Monthly" title="Electronic Gaming Monthly">EGM</a></i>, the game signified "less a hacktivist tale and more a beautiful immersion into the San Francisco Bay". The setting, characters and story were cited as considerable refinements from its predecessor. Buchholtz discerned that the tasks demanded to gain followers were successful in encouraging world exploration. He noted however that – in context of the main character – murder made little sense, which led to increased usage of stealth.<sup id="cite_ref-EGM_72-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-EGM-72"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>71<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Elise Favis at <i><a href="/wiki/Game_Informer" title="Game Informer">Game Informer</a></i> both disparaged and praised elements in comparison to those of <i>Watch Dogs</i>. She enjoyed that hacking was prioritized in the gameplay and the new "smoother" driving mechanic, but saw inconsistencies in the protagonist's actions versus his personality and thought supporting characters "too obnoxious and petty to be meaningful companions". Favis also experienced low frame rate capabilities on PlayStation 4.<sup id="cite_ref-GI_73-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-GI-73"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>72<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Aron Garst of <i><a href="/wiki/Game_Revolution" class="mw-redirect" title="Game Revolution">Game Revolution</a></i> stated that <i>Watch Dogs 2</i> had redressed "nearly every negative aspect of the original", and as such, marked a favorable change in the franchise.<sup id="cite_ref-GameRev_74-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-GameRev-74"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>73<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> <i><a href="/wiki/IGN" title="IGN">IGN</a></i><span class="nowrap" style="padding-left:0.1em;">'</span>s Dan Stapleton liked Marcus Holloway more than Aiden Pearce of the first game, and similarly appreciated the supporting characters of DedSec. Marcus' penchant for moral integrity was a noticeable contradiction for Stapleton, though, in light of the prospect to have him kill innocent people if one so chooses. Therefore, the character's personality was observed as the only preclusion to violence and an axiomatic push toward the stealth approach, which Stapleton insisted was the most accommodating of available tools.<sup id="cite_ref-IGNpage1_79-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-IGNpage1-79"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>78<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Writing for <i><a href="/wiki/Polygon_(website)" title="Polygon (website)">Polygon</a></i>, Philip Kollar saw that <i>Watch Dogs 2</i> could appeal to those able to connect with "being young, angry at the system and certain that you know what's best for the world".
