Polygon's absolutely terrible Watch_Dogs review

I feel watch dogs had the opportunity to jump into actual realism and be fun, I mean all they would have to exaggerate is the power of your hacking skills and manipulation, there's no reason you would need to be able to take 8 bullets to the face and live or any nonsense like that.

Well, that aspect, yes; they definitely should have made the character painfully mortal to force the player to use the hacking to win.
