Skull and Bones: How Did This Take 10 Years to Develop?
Рет қаралды 823
Күн бұрын'Assassin's Creed: Black Flag' was released in 2013 to moderate success, but it is remembered for its gripping ship combat, expansive setting and a myriad of tools given to players to interact with the world around them. Compared to Ubisoft's latest release 'Skull and Bones', released in Feb 2024 after a gruelling ten year development cycle. It promised to improve on the outstanding Black Flag formula - but did it succeed? Was it worth the decade-long wait?

Its honestly depressing.. I played about 12 hours of skull and bones and just wasnt feeling it. I stopped playing assasins creed after ac3 so never really played black flag. Well, a few days ago I fired up 11 year old black flag and have roughly 8 -9 hours in and it literally cant wait to jump back in asap. Its such a bummer that the youth is bieng sold this slop cause they dont know any better. Please just played black flag ppl, you wont be disappointed.

Hey! Thanks for the comment. Totally agree with you on this - I remember playing Black Flag when I'd come home from high school back in 2014 and loved every second of it. I'm not going to sit here and say that Assassin's Creed Black Flag was the peak of all gaming, but I really enjoyed the expansive setting, interesting characters and most of all, the outstanding ship-to-ship combat. It's really a shame that Ubisoft still keeps pushing out this terrible quality in each of their releases and their CEO still tries to lie to our faces about the game being "AAAA" Quadruple A Quality. I'm working on a more in-depth video comparison right now, so please stay tuned for that :) Thanks for the comment and have a wonderful day

Honestly, it truly saddens me. When I watched the trailer announcement for Skull and Bones, I got so excited. Even though I could still play Black Flag. I wanted this game to be the best pirate game yet.

I KNOW omg. It really really wanted to love the game but after seeing the nonsense that Ubisoft's CEO was spewing about Skull and Bones being "Quadruple A" I just couldn't bring myself to pay 70 USD for the game... which by the way is also filled with Microtransactions... I'm working on a more in-depth video comparison right now, so please stay tuned for that :) Thanks for the comment and have a wonderful day!

yes boarding is quick, now try doing that boarding where you fight on the deck with 4 other ships firing down on you with possible ships ramming the ship you are on and your ship....a single player is different then multiplayer

@@Nerdsfeed you're all good! oh it'll be a more in-depth commentary on how Skull and Bones basically regressed so much that it has less features than assassins creed black flag - a game that was released 11 years ago. Yeah something along those lines!

@@b0rk125 I'm looking forward to it! Sucks that they couldn't even improve on a old formula that they made console generations ago

The only good thing about S&B is that it reminded me to reinstall Black Flag. A win for me overall, especially since I only had to play the free trial to reach this point 😂😂

Aye I'll toast to that. Black Flag is always one of those kinda games that I find myself replaying once every few years when I want to just enjoy a good open world pirate game. But yes, we're on the same page here - do not give ubisoft more money and endorse them for their terrible practices hahaha. Also, I'm working on a more in-depth video comparison right now, so please stay tuned for that :) Thanks for leaving a comment and have a wonderful day ahead!

100% agree, skull and bones endgame (that fckin smuggler shit) is borring as fck. We wanna fight not deliver pizza 90% of game play.

thats literally what pirates did though, 99% of the time they ever voyaged onto the sea. smuggled.

@marburg123 HAHAHA this is the best thing I've heard all day but it's so accurate it's painful... the game really just looks like going around pressing the QuickTime button to get 123x generic in game resource to make your ship 1% better! Knowing Ubisoft, you'll definitely be able to use real world cash to get even more of this generic game resource instead of doing boring Quick Time events for weeks just to get the upgrades or cosmetics you want... thanks for the comment! I'm also working on a more in-depth analysis of the game and it's troubled development history, so please stay tuned for that if it's something you'll be interested in. Have a great day ahead!
