    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 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.

        It was until Sea of Thieves got popular for a week

        Then they scrapped it and started over to copy that

      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.
