To me, blackflag was fun because it was single player (my fav AC game by far) . If they made another single player pirate game I would play the shit out of it
Yeah, I was initially super interested. Cut down the AC stuff, build out the ships, and you're good to go.
Then I found out it was live service trash and stopped caring.
I could feel all my interest evaporate.
I would do unspeakable things to get a Sid Meier's: Pirates! Live the Life style game, but with Black Flag controls/graphics.
Honestly, I got a Ship-of-the-Line in that game once when I was like 13, and every game from then on I hunted for them trying to capture a whole fleet, but they were pretty rare.
I want that feeling of "I'm hunting for a specific ship and country/cargo" again. Black flag is still my all time favorite AC
Thats a million dollar idea right there, too bad the game would be too big for an indie company to produce and triple A studios are too dumb to invest on new ideas.
I think it's one of those "it will be profitable, but not in a short enough time for it to boost my career" kind of games. There is plenty of interest, just not enough for big sales right out the Gate, which is what AAA companies want.
I'd be aboard.
Black Flag is still my favorite AC. I never finished the story, because I enjoyed sailing the seas and singing along to shanties.
You should really finish the story, the ending is amazing imo. The story starts weak and the middle is kinda meh but the ending... Soooooo good
Oh no, seems like I have to start all over. Yay :D
Haha have a good one!
I finished it once and then went New Game+ and just sailed and sailed.
Only game I never uninstall, just use it to relax.
Is this not single player? I was always under the impression this was a spiritual successor to black flag
I think they intended it to be single player but then thought they make more money with a multiplayer game as a service
Ahh, colour me disinterested.
It was until Sea of Thieves got popular for a week
Then they scrapped it and started over to copy that
