I've gushed before about how much I enjoy the Watch_Dogs games, even though there's very few similarities between Watch_Dogs 1 and 2. Hacking with a cellphone is just a fun game mechanic. Plus, they're making a Watch_Dogs movie which apparently finished filming in September. Of course, we'll see if the movie ever gets a release. Who knows anymore.
Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

If I remember correctly the second was written by a black writer and he try to bring is own story into the game … he was let go after because this was too woke before woke
It wasn't before "woke". It was before morons learned the word existed and used it completely wrong and forced it to fit their culture war nonsense.
Edit: if you're in a cyberpunk community complaining about "woke", you definitely don't understand the themes of the genre.
Nah! My point being that Ubisoft let him go because his cultural representation and the political he inject into the game clutter the gameplay and blah blah blah
It was bullshit, two or three years later they had said that his game was too woke.
English not my first language so maybe my idea was lost in translation
I can't find anything to substantiate this, think you may have dreamt it up or fell for a 4chan goof.
At the time he seems to have been critical of game producers because they didn’t want gay/lesbian protagonists for economic reasons. But, yeah, you will not find a termination notice anywhere.
