I had no idea this game still had such an active community. I remember being so disappointed by the wasted potential when it came out and this mod seems to restore the original vision the devs had for the game before Ubisoft forced them to cut corners. Very impressive for a title that did not have official mod support.

Legion was pretty good IMO. At least they got better with each sequel.

Personally still think 2 was the overall best, there were a lot of mechanics I wish made it to legion

The map and gameplay of WD2 are great, but I absolutely hated the story-gameplay dissonance. "Oh, we are just a bunch of nice, happy hacker kids, we want to get more social media followers... Let's murder half of the San Francisco police force and literally thousands of criminals". I am aware the game has non-lethal options, but they make playing much more of a slog and unlike WD1, this game does nothing to encourage using them. Ubisoft removed the morality system because everybody hated it in the first game, but ironically it would have fit much better in WD2 imo.

I remember taser being a significantly better weapon than everything else? It one shots enemies on the body and doesn't make noise.
