    To be honest, even if it's far from being perfect and not the most historically accurate, I do have fun exploring the in-game world and hunting for isolated merchant ships to take their loot. The gameplay of piloting a whole ship reminds me of Eve Online but much simpler and more relaxing, being more focused on PVE.

      @trathanstargazer6421 Před 3 měsíci

      @@Shiro8905 Oh I agree you should always watch out, but at the end of the day, it is said consumer that determines if something is fun or not. It is a consumers job to look at a product and judge if they'll get worth out of it, and buy it if they think it'll be worth it. Money amount is just another factor in that judgement. Even if they paid $100 for it, if they think they got their time and had fun with it, then that is all that matters. After all, what constitutes a bad game and a good game are subjective to each person.
      This is no different from Starfield, which some utterly hate and others absolutely love. The problem here, is that Ubi Sing were making game A, their first full game, and had a bunch of internal problems that kept forcing it back. Even though they were making game A, consumers wanted game B, or game C. They looked at previous work and thought it'll be just like that, instead of something different, so they judge based on what they thought it should be. So despite telling everyone over and over again they are making game A, the people hate it because it isn't game B or C. Their not judging the game based on what it offers. Their judging it because they wanted something else. THAT is my main issue, which you are right isn't gate keeping, though some are edging towards it.
      I don't know, maybe I'm in the minority of thinking here, but I refuse to judge a game based on the fact it wasn't something else. I judge it based on what it is. Oh yeah, their are problems with the game, there is no doubt about that and I can easily name several problems I have (Fact we can't throw away treasure maps is infuriating to me), but I also dare you to name a game that doesn't have problems. Lord knows Sea of Thieves at launch wasn't that good. So far though, from the 40 hours I've put into the game, I'll say I'm getting my money's worth, as do a bunch of other people. That could change in the future, we'll see, game JUST came out after all, but at the moment I'm having fun, and to me, that is all that matters.

    It's a bare minimum of a pirate, it's not even a pirate game. A ship battle game.

Imagine watching Pirates of the Caribbean but all the footage happens on the ship. The atrocious Pre-orders packs, MTXs design to milk a sinking ship. Overall, it feels like a chore to play Skulls and Bones.

      I have played both AC Black Flag and Sea of Thieves. I think this game is a good change of pace and I like it for what it is. The focus on naval combat is something different and enjoyable. The higher you get, the more strategy you have to put in as the enemies have different types of weapons and maneuvers. Currently working on getting a tank ship up to the with the Dutch Merchant Company. They like to use a lot of mortar strikes. @@19JDOG91

    I love pirate themes in games an movies. I've quit many games quite quick, but none as fast as this game. I quit not even 10 minutes into this €80 AAAA game. Ubisoft is litearlly just telling you that this game is AAAA top of the line but it's not. I'm not telling anyone to not have fun with this game but my god it's delayed multiple times and it's literally just skull and bones without any juicy meat to get into. If you like this game, go play AC black flag, you'll love that game.

    Commenters acting like they don’t understand how sponsorships work or how it is literally the streamers job and livelihood. Let’s not pretend that anyone here wouldn’t do the same. Phuzzy announcing it’s a sponsored video is the only disclaimer he needs to give. Let’s also not forget he has streamed this game multiple times and made unsponsored content for it as well. The comment section feels like some of you are trying to shame a content creator for his literal job and or bully them into having an opinion that aligns with your own. EVEN if phuzzy didn’t enjoy the game, which he seems to actually do, it would be well within his right and a good strategy as a streamer to play and show the newest game. The curiosity and obvious vitriol it will bring is good business for a content creator as it brings engagement and views. He’s literally a pirate streamer ya’ll. This is a pirate game. You can dislike it all you want and have valid reasons for either but trying to enforce your opinions like you are in the comments is just bullying and cancel culture at work. If you’re mad about sponsored videos, learn how content creation as a business works. It’s your opinion, it’s his livelihood. Respect others you filthy landlubbers lol

      People have a problem with content creators who won’t give criticism because they’re being paid to give a polished review. Some creators, give honest opinions of the game, good and bad. And good game/developers let them because they have faith in the game. Some people will see this review and be influenced to buy it just because their favorite CZcamsr made a positive video about, but didn’t tell them any of the negatives or what they don’t like. Some people feel the creator is responsible for not selling out and respecting their audience by not promoting a game they don’t really enjoy or giving a real perspective of the game and not cherry pick around the good things. Not claiming he doesn’t enjoy it, but there was a lack of constructive criticism in his review. Which means he was clearly holding back somethings because just about every game has its problems. No doubt this one with how divided people are. So instead of demanding people respect what he’s doing, you respect their right to have an opinion and their right be upset if they feel like they’re being mislead by a CZcamsr they like.

    Its not Black flag its not what people think its suppose to be, its an ARPG, your character is the ship. Its Diablo but with ships. I do wish they had more loot and or legendary items that drop from bosses and more builds perhaps. started playing 3 days ago, and i personally cant stop playing. So the audience who is currently reviewing it are skyrim, black flag type of reviewers, they are the wrong audience, this talks more to the arpg target audience. Should they add more items and or rare items to drop, Yes, so they should move away from trying to please the wrong audience but focus on the arpg audience, like Poe, last epoch, and diablo players, since that is what this game is in my opinion. Think it has lots of more potential if it goes down that route.

    I look at any purchase of games against how long I think I’ll play it. If a game costs $70 and I put 70 hours into it then I’m paying for $1/hour of entertainment. Already cheaper than a movie and it gets cheaper with more time spent in it. I played that and spades in the beta and I knew I’d put more than that into retail so I bought it. I think most of the hate is either from people upset that they can’t buy it so they are trying to justify to themselves that it’s not worth buying or they are upset that they can’t ruin someone else’s time spent in game at random with pvp being opt-in. Go play a different game if you don’t like this. There are plenty of people having fun with it and seeing all of the available things to do in the game and not complaining “bUt I cAn’t uSe A sWoRd”. It wasn’t designed to do that, it never will be. Go to another game if that’s what you want.
