This Game is over 10 Years Old, so much better than Skull and Bones

Change my mind. More Features, Better Gameplay and Story :D AAAAAAH AND an OFFLINE MODE

Ya I beat this on my Xbox 360 10 years ago. I waited for Skull and Bones expecting to only ADD the how great this was. Then after watching 1 hr of gameplay, I rebought Black Flag for PC for 1/5th the price and 10x the game!

I mean just look at the "cannon volleys" of S&B... its a freaking arcade game.
Ill stick to Black Flag

Lmao, I actually bought this because I was watching a video about skull and bones and thought this looks so bad, Found out about black flag and first time on the ship I thought to myself this is amazing

Im an Alaskan crabber/fisherman. The storms in this game give me instant PTSD and have me holding my breath and gripping the controller. No other game has ANYWHERE close to the level of realism

[Khorne Flakes]

Yeah Skull & Bones 2 looks pretty good. Anyone know when's the release date?

[Bjakkzzz]

I was excited to check about this game from watching comparings of Skulls & Bones, never played both of these games, coming from Sea of Thieves accually, my real question after reading around, trolls and other players so can i run and play it today if i buy Black Flag yes or no?

I simply cannot phantom why people still haven't realised that pretty much from around 2010-2013, Ubi$oft has been pretty much always lower less quality games, plagued with the extra content DLC's that are around another 60€ 3A price tag on top of the original 3A price and "iced on top of that cake with those in-game's Stores (either with Helix Credits or whatever other game currency it has) that are a sheer, devious (and predatory) way to make you "pay to progress faster".

Imho, the 2 lowest points in the Assassin's Creed (AC) franchise were the AC: Unity, then had that wonderful AC: Origins exception (to their now usual subpar quality, rushed out of development bar) and then plummeted again to a new lowest with AC: Oddysssey (in which you don't even have an Hidden Blade unless you get the forking stupid "simply hadd it here" DLC of it).

So, thus far and quite obvious they've lost me as fidelized customer pretty much since AC: Origins and they'll seriously need to change their business model into a sustained development model one as it once was (unitl 2010 or so) before I've even ponder in changing my mind.

I don't understand how they managed to make an inferior pirate game. Like, they literally did BF, they have experience (kinda sorta). How do you ♥♥♥♥ up this bad? Your clothes don't even get wet in S&B when you walk into the water, ffs.. beyond parody.

[jbarry39]

Agreed.

That actually reminded me that the first time I remember seeing wet clothes when you exit water was in Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker.... which I now realize can ALSO be considered a better pirate game, lol.

Anything's better than this. Even a 2002 game. What a joke. Like, dude, have you seen the "boarding/looting ship" cutscene? Absolute disappointment.

I did this exact same thing after playing the free trial of Skull and Bone. Much happier with AC Black Flag.

Unity is awesome, if you disregard its terrible launch. It looks best of all and the crowd density is amazing. I also liked the detective mysteries and the way could approach assassination. That game did a lot right.

better than skull and bones but I am not enjoying the campaign. Stupid tailing missions with horrible stealth and parkour mechanics. Never had these issues playing through 2 and brotherhood which I finished 100%. Yet this one makes me want to tear my eyes out playing the main campaign. Story is rather boring too. Shame because the combat, ship battles and setting is cool. Just fails in what I consider the more important aspects.
