Please for the love of all that is holy, stay faithful to the original.
Don’t add any of the loot box, leveled weapon / enemy crap that the newer titles have.
Black Flag is one of my favorite PS4 games, and I’d love to get my GF the remake.
I’d be okay with them adding some stuff. A bit of multiplayer or more boats. Assasins creed might be the exception to the rule but old games generally dont age well. I’m all for adding (non predatory) content. It would be a dream come true if they added mod support for instance.
Surprise! It was Skull & Bones in disguise!
Oh, oh no… you are probably right
Haven’t played the original, but why does this game need remade?
For money, they already remastered the ones before it
One of the best of the series and will probably look massively improved visually with updating lighting, physics and 4k textures (not that it looked bad in 2013, far from it)
Gotta milk the cash cow.
Because the original doesn’t really have a lot of predatory monetisation. They are having GTAO wet dreams thinking about how to monetise their most popular game of the franchise with the excuse of doing it as a remake.
Why remake it though? It’s not THAT old. And it’s not like Ubisoft games look substantially better now than they did back then. Black Flag is probably the AC game from the older AC games that holds up the best. The water specifically from that game is still impressive today and the pirate ship battles have still never gotten better than that.
To insert additional monetisation
Ubi execs probably: “See! SEE! Look at Oblivion. They don’t even care about fixing the bugs. Quick! Leak that we’re redoing Black Flag and we’ll rush it!”
Is this just going to be Black Flag using the Skull and Bones platform? The snake is eating it’s own tail now.
Something tells me this is gonna be Ubisoft’s last stand, either this is a success or they go away as a company.
I like both outcomes.
Remove all the outside animus parts, remove the stupid plot point that I don’t fucking care about modern assassin’s vs templars and the end of the world yada yada, while you’re at it, remove any mention of assassin and templars, I just want to be a pirate.
Sea of Thieves is the game for you
0 interest in a “game as a service”
And?
