AAAA is actually the screams of the devs who had to make this
I hate all these AAAA developers
My dumbass read it as aahh game quality.
this game rly looks and feels like an AAAA(ss) game
and AAAA if actually just FFFF while AAA is FFF
The screams of the AC:BF community and everyone else.
Ah yes, the 3 classic pirate's tenets. Playing nice, fair and safe
A good pirate never takes another persons property.
@@Gaminggoodboiit's true tho. A good pirate convinces you to give them your property without unneeded fight
@@piotrwisniewski70 Indeed, just like how they can take 70 dollars from you without a fight
@@puromax7787 that my friend, is just capitalism
@@puromax7787 feeling the free market now eh?
AC Black Flag walked so Skull and Bones could crawl
Crawl feels like overestimating it.
Crawl? More like falling over a never ending staircase from heaven to hell.
Crawl!? More like never leaving the bed.
Black Flag ran, and then Skull and Bones broke its knees
And Rogue simply went for a quick jog
What a project full of passion, completely uninspired by another famous pirate game, and certainly without any microtransactions, truly a unique AAAA next gen experience 🥰
Can’t believe it took them such a short amount of time to develop as well. Amazing that the whole thing wasn’t a scam just to get money out of the singapore government. Ubisoft are such saints.
What I find crazy is that Microsoft made a pirate game to compete with the pirate game that Microsoft also made.
Talk about self-competition.
The combat is brain dead lacking any strategy lol
@@cdeshaw1986WOOOOOSH
Not to be old af but this is literally just 3D Sid Meier's Pirates lmaoooo. Except in Sid you could actually do ground combat
I love how you said "ingredients" instead of "resources" for the Ship. Cooking Simulator confirmed. 10/10
"This might be a good spot to find some ingredients."
>travelling at 12 knots per second
Ah yes, the pirate ship with sails that travels at MACH 64
What's funny is that technically "Mach #" refers to how fast compared to the speed of sound travels through that specific medium. Sound travels much slower in water, so Mach 64 might not be too far off rofl.
If my conversions are right, it's 74 meters per second.
@@citizenspaghetti might wanna check again, that's 12 knots PER SECOND, so roughly 22 kilometers per second or 22000 m/s, which is also about 64.1 times the speed of sound
@jakeking974 yup skipped an entire step, lol.
Since knots are a unit of speed knots per second would be a unit of acceleration. So every second moving at 12 knots per second your speed would increase by 6.2 meters/second, so they'd be pulling 0.67Gs of forward acceleration. Not entirely unheard of for a human construction, but no way is a sailing ship doing that.
Nah I'm not paying 70 dollars for a world of tanks rip off
It's literally World of Warships but worse and not free to play
@@rodrigobogado8756world of warships but pirate. Oh and also it’s 70 USD 😂
😂
Type shit
a mobile version of world of warships, basically.
The idea of gradually upgrading and customizing your ship sounds fun… in a better game without max level players one shotting newbs.
So, Sea of Thieves?
@@HB-fq9nn So, Sea of Thieves.
The PvP is actually entirely opt-in. You can't attack other players unless they're in a specific PvP event. What we're seeing here is actually a problem that they're working to fix, basically there's certain end-game content that causes high level NPC enemies to spawn and chase the player in question... unfortunately they have a habit of getting distracted and going after any newbies nearby as well.
Those weren’t players. You can’t just PvP anyone in the game, there are specific modes in the end game for PvP. In this video they got shot by an NPC, that they should have avoided.
Looks like a very pretty mobile game
The best we can hope for is that this game is just a warm-up for the Assassins Creed Black Flag remake
I’ve been saying the same thing😂 Just a remaster would get more sales than this trash imo
@@DDL_BBprobably worse quality too
The game makes you agree to a code of conduct to do the literal opposite of what pirates do.
So, this doesn't SAY its sponsored, but it certainly feels like it is from their reactions. Almost at actual Ubisoft trailer level acting at times, haha.
100% Agree
i got to 1:25 and I'm fully convinced.
it's not sponsored, but they did give me codes to play
Sounds like paid actors
Pretty sure there's some legal stuff about not stating if something is sponsored no?
They really trying hard to make this game look fun.
With the right friends, anything can be fun. I watched the new Zac Snyder movie, Rebel Moon with friends and had a blast. Not because of the movie, mind you, that was garbage on every account.
@@l0rf there is nothing like getting a couple of friends together to make fun of a trash game
Please share with us your portfolio of award winning game development
@@INFILTR8US you can criticise a thing without ever having made such a thing. I don't need to know how to cook a perfect steak to tell you that a leather jacket placed in a waffle iron is not a good steak.
@@l0rf did you just compare game design to throwing a slab of raw meat into a pan? LMFAO
Every time I see the ship heeling hard over my first thought is, "Let out your mainsheet, dangit! You're losing so much speed with that much heel!"
...then I remember that no Ubisoft game is *ever* going to have that level of sail-handling detail.
dude now you made me want a pirate game with SUPER intricate sailing, any recommends? or does it just not exist
@cryth2725 Sailwind is the best I've seen. Not a pirate game per se, but it has fairly realistic sailing mechanics from what I saw. Some games have a wind mechanic (Sea of Thieves, for example), but it's usually pretty basic and forgiving
I feel like itd be kinda cool if they used 'For Honor' combat with ship boarding & had more advanced ship combat
I actually enjoyed "Sid Meier's Pirates!" more than this game when they had the free play weekend a couple of weeks ago. You could plunder towns, fight land battles, hunt for treasure... and that was on the C-64 37 freakin' years ago! You've failed us, Ubisoft.
Make 'em walk the plank! >=(
@jamesanthony8438 sid Meier's pirates is one of the best pirate games I've ever played. Good thing I have it on CD, ensuring that I will always be able to play it
@@piotrwisniewski70 I've got additional copies on PC and Sega Genesis, as well. =)
@@jamesanthony8438 nice :p
The gameplay loop makes me think this is just a pretty mobile game.
Having a gameplay loop is part of the problem.
"AAAA" yeah, I don't like any game quality like this from now on. "Play Nice, Play Fair, Play Safe" It seems like the devs didn't know what Pirates are to begin with.
It should be like Sea of Thieves. If you haven't at some point sunk a ship and heard a kid crying on its way down, you're not pirating good enough
I think they're trying to stop a toxic community from festering.
@@theantagonist801 even minecraft had toxic community or even Chess. It is just up to you as a player if you'll be part of it or pretend that it doesn't exist.
I know I didn't hear them say the ship fighting is better than black flags 1:38 I know that didn't happen right?
I reeled when I heard that
Why I'm not subbed
I loved the part in Treasure Island where they had a stamina bar.
The AAAA stands for goffy AAAA game.
They were right this game really is a great C tier game.........wait they said it was AAAA?
When they decide to give you less for more. It's what Quadra-A Studios mean. lol
the budget was AAAA not the quality
With the state of gaming in general for the past 10 years , I don’t doubt this is indeed, a quadruple A game.
Nothing says piracy like playing nice, fair, and safe.
Gonna be honest, of all the footage I've seen, you made the game look the most fun.
"Piracy is more fun with friends" ill drink to that
I played the first demo and fucking hated it, i used 2 of my 6 hours and then went to play assassin’s creed odyssey, not even Unity
I played the demo four hours straight in a call with friends I hated it so much I wanted to die
@@novakameron123 i ranted to my non gamer mom and even was like “How could that be fun”
@@RexMiseriae my mom pretty much had the same reaction as well
i played for about an hour or less and deleted that garbage
4:42
I love that the character tilts THE WRONG WAY when you turn
You can't even board enemy ships, even AC BF, an 11-year-old game, had that feature. AAAA quality my ass. Nobody should spend $70 on this soulless cashgrab when its ship combat is outdone by a game that would be in middle school by now.
S&B is like what Ubisoft thought Blackflag was.
Ubisoft thought they could copy Sea of Thieves and no one would notice.
World of warships actually
They just made the Black Flag ship feature a standalone game and tried to charge full price.
@@AAARRRGGGGH there's even less gameplay mechanics than in the Black Flag ship feature lol
I wanted it to be like sea of thieves sadly it’s nothing like it
They made it with AC4: Black Flag engine.
I feel like kev couldn't badmouth the game cuz he was sent the codes. I guess keeping the good relationship he has with the studio. But he looks like he enjoyed so thats good 😌
So you're not really playing a pirate captain but a pirate sjip. You can't even board enemies ????
fr one of the most enticing parts of this games massive contender, sea of thieves, and one of the key parts of naval combat in black flag is just a 5 second animation
Makes ya wonder what the fuck they did with all that time. “We removed the assassins creed DNA.”
“What did you replace it with?”
“Replace it?”
For every a added to AAA is how many bugs are added on launch
I'll just play AC Black Flag LOL
I did. Played 1 hour of Skull and bones on my friends Steam. Bought them Ac4 just to enjoy being a pirate with a good story and a great supporting cast. Still hate the modern day Templar/Abstergo crap tho.
This game really looks like *insert generic pirate game* !!
This is giving me flashbacks to Lineage 2 pvp servers lol the high levels camping noob mission zones just to one-shot them.
PS: I fucking love Philip in this episode. Had me cackling the whole time 😂
they weren't players. (it's also the zone around your first and main harbor, you'll always get back there for one reason or another)
the game is 99% PVE and PVP is opt-in. other players can't even hurt you outside of these PVP "events".
kev got owned by NPCs.
The camping in L2 was so much worse because of the xp and item loss (at least for the first two years)
Remember, your boat will get eepy, be sure to let your eepy get sleepy so she dont sinky
Truly this deserves the ÀÁÀÁ Tag with every accent representing almost 4 years of work and tears.
They're being suspiciously kind with this game. It's soooo bad💀I assumed he'd be roasting this dookie hard the whole time. Aside from the Graphics this game screams mobile and overall misdirection.
Had a buddy who was really excited for the game so we tried to take it easy at first. by the end we all hated it.
@@CasualKevduit Yeah I can see why. You definitely need friends to make this a bit more enjoyable, at least for a little while. Keep up the great content✨🤗✨
It's sea of thieves with all the good parts removed and replaced with lazy design
Time to play fair in a pay to win game. Uh huh, yep.
It's definitely a 30-40 dollars game max. Not a 60-70 dollars game. Have 72 hours playtime currently. It's not a AAAA game or AC Black Flag . Misleading marketing from ubisoft. But It's a fun game for what it is. This game is basically a open world looter shooter live service game like division 2 and others. All islands are safe places that you can interact with npc's and other suff. When it's on discount definitely worth buying but not at current price. It's not that bad as people saying.
Bro first time I went to turn the ship and felt that unrealistic a** ship steering I was so salty 😂
The PvP is actually entirely opt-in. You can't attack other players unless they're in a specific PvP event. What we're seeing here is actually a problem that they're working to fix, basically there's certain end-game content that causes high level NPC enemies to spawn and chase the player in question... unfortunately they have a habit of getting distracted and going after any newbies nearby as well. That combined with you just sailing into higher level areas, as a general rule, when you start, you keep to "Red Isle" (aka Madagascar), then start exploring the coast of Africa, then finally move over to the East Indies.
...a M rated game with a warning of playing nice, fair and being safe. Bruh I miss old CoD lobbies with the usual idiots throwing out racial slurs.
Nah I respect it, you're agreeing up front that if you're a toxic person it's on you because the rules are right there plain as day. They probably know not every player is going to follow them perfectly but it's a lot easier to stamp out the problematic players if nobody is putting up with them.
Imma be real, with how long this game has been in development hell, anyone who thought it would be good is morons. I knew this game was gonna be bad when they announced they restarted development for a third time. Name me one game that's suffered as long, if not longer, that came out even decent.
Come on shills. Come out of your mom's basement and tell us which one, to prove "The Haters" wrong. No? Nothing?
Wow a gollum-like pirate game, in the leagues of skull island rise of kong, redfall, walking dead destinies, and the day before. 🤣
Sid Meier's Pirates is a better Pirate Game than Skull & Bones. lol
sea of theives does look kinda like skull and bones first person on a ship and land can not drink to get drunk but can sail a ship in first person the whole time but the controls feel alot like skull and bones
You very much can get plastered in SOT and the controls aren't even vaguely similar, what are you on about?
You upload only the sponsored content here on this channel right?
nope, not sponsored, but ubisoft did give me codes
first vid ive seen not absolultly trashing the game
@Tsolus: "So, this doesn't SAY its sponsored, but it certainly feels like it is from their reactions. Almost at actual Ubisoft trailer level acting at times, haha."
I totally agree.
@@immune85oh nooo how dare they have fun
@@ShoanQuebecCoD Yeah, I totally had a problem with that. You're quite sharp indeed.
Having fun with some aspects of the game is all well and good. That's the point anyway. Being able to play with friends (regardless of how much interaction) helps keep things fun. But some fun doesnt equal a good game, and it doesnt equal a full experience. The game is what it is, so if its fun for some that's great, but Ubisoft deserves no praise for this. The only support I would give is for the shanties. Sean Dagher and La Nef deserve every bit of praise as true professionals and the original AC shantymen (I dont know who else sings shanties in the game beyond them).
There asking 70 dollars for a game they also said I shouldn't get comfortable with the idea of owning it. No thanks.
(Meanwhile you dont own steam games either)@@l0rf
I don't like that this looks like it would be fun with friends for a week or two, because I have absolutely no desire to give Ubisoft money ever again
He said it, he said the title of the vid
"play nice, play fair, play safe"
I thought we were supposed to be pirates?... Yknow the bandits of the ocean?
Why can't they make a pirate game that isn't PvPvE? I don't want to play with other people :(
They already have. It's called Assassin's Creed Black Flag
@@ArgoInfoBrokerI didn't realise we get one game per genre, my bad.
Reminder this game was basically just a vacation spot in singapore for the french developers . No one from signapore could get promoted in that office , called it "the french cieling" and thats why they never made the game.till the actual goverment of signapore was on their ass cause they also took out a loan from the goverment , for this fake game almost a decade ago , that was just a office or french employees to vacation till they actually legally had to make a game
Ah yes, the game that was supposed to kill Sea of Thieves.
Through boredom, perhaps. If the players are bored to death, they can't return to SoT.
Skull and Bones has more in common with Pirate101 by Kingsile (the company who made wizard101) than it does Sea Of Thieves by Rare LTD.
looks like a fun game if it was priced at 20$.
With its quality and microtransactions, anything other than free to play is a bad joke
Sea of Thiefes is unfair
Its there no other way to combat, explore islands etc?
Personally love the game, but the amount of people yapping about Black Flag is insane to the point its funny.
Good vid kev👍
I dunno, sly cooper had pirate ship battles downpacked. But nobodies ready for this conversation
Honestly looking at the gameplay this doesn't seem that bad. I looked at the price tho so I'm not gonna buy it without a serious sale.
This game COULD have been good, if they actually made it more like Sea of Thieves with actual off ship things, and real boarding instead of cutscenes. If they also didn't spend 100 years restarting development from the group up just to be the exact same game as well, they could have had this game done in a year and sold it as a fun little 20-30 dollar ship only game with friends.
This is a game of all time
Just give me black flag with multiplayer but the multi-player is like what you do in the main game and i will be set for life
That guy on the megaphone in the beginning sounds like Captain Flynt's voice actor from Borderlands 2.
The fact the beggining of the game is the same as Assassins Creed: Black Flag 💀💀💀
Honestly, it's good if it's like 10-20$. Not 100000$.
shouldnt it be
"An Ubisoft Original" instead of "A Ubisoft Original"
it should be in the trash
After playing games like Black Flag, Sea Dogs, and Sid Myer's Pirates!, this is a pretty-looking milk run simulator with microtransactions. I'd rather vomit in my hands and clap.
See here, the rock on the island did collapse and buried all the evidence that this ever happened. This game is canon IRL we just didn’t know.
Comparing snb to sot. One of them is a pirate game with sword fights and blunderbuss and thieving. One of them is a boat with stamina and nothing else. Very unfair to compare them.
It just looks like black flag without all the assassin bits
A Quadruple A game shouldn't suck balls
He went crazy and everyone died
This is literally just world of tanks but with boats and a massive price tag attached..... The best part of being a pirate is actually getting to be a pirate... I don't know who at Ubisoft decided the best part of being a pirate was actually being a boat
Way I see it. Black Flag and Sea of Thieves is all we have. I wanted to control a character, too. Not just the ship. Never bought it. Never will.
Fully convinced that a game's quality gets worse with the more A's you add to it
someone had a lemur in my drive thru once
For a game that is primitive to black flag in 11 years in the making with a over 100 million dollar budget it's the first I seen kev show respect to a bad game
What really hurts. Is that they had a completely good system of ship movement. AC Black flag. If they had've improved that and then worked on the combat to provide functionality for multiship crews it would've been at least worth it.
The only thing this game does is make me want to go play Black Flag again.
Mentioning Sea of Thieves and Skull and Bones, feels like an insult... One have passion and love built into it, and the other is just laziness and greed incarnate and said it's a "AAAA"
Look up a game called tempest way more to do in that game then this one.
It turns out the One Piece was the friends they made along the way
First goofy AAAAhh game
Why the hell does your ship have stamina?? Who thought of this???
Some shills would spout "But but but... crew's stamina" like what the hell, all of your crew can get tired AT THE SAME TIME?
Very Mid game, Good Video 10/10
i was today years old when i knew they are both the same game
Definitely AAA quality
AA battery quality
It's like sea of theives if sea of theives wasn't a pirate game. Also if it wasn't fun.
Ubisoft just misses the mark ever single time.
Never played Skull and Bones, but i mean, SoT is pretty damn unfair itself. The dumb choices of game mechanics which are disallowed/controlled and force new or lesser skilled players to always be at a major disadvantage. A few examples: your spyglass/scope reflecting light for everyone to see, even when there isn't direct bright light nearby. Or the creepy Merman "helper" who takes his sweet time when your ship is headed straight for a rock, but flies out of nowhere instantly when you might want to covertly scout out an island without drawing *_massive neon green glowing smoke pillar_* type of attention to yourself. Or heaven forbid you're new to the game and want to crouch in some bushes to hide from pve mobs, or the 90% of players who kill everything that moves for fun and who can't stop to pick up your loot, cause THAT would slow down their "find and murder next solo player" rate. (But amazingly, multiple enemies can 'spawn camp' your ship all day long, because you can Scuttle and feel/look like a coward... I guess?) Oh, and I especially love how the game tells everybody nearby how awesome you are by displaying your name in big bright bold letters directly above your big dumb pirate head, EVEN when you'd prefer it didn't.
Man all I wanted is a non cartoony Sea of Thieves. But we get this trash.
You know, for a company that went bankrupt and crawled back to Steam for our money, you'd think they'd learn to treat us a little better. You know, more worthwhile games at a more affordable price. It looks like they want to go bankrupt again with this overpriced trash.
Your title made my day
