Ubisoft has just released the first piece of concept art for Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag Resynced, finally confirming its long-awaited remake that has been rumored for years.
I can’t wait to see how they fuck it up.
“Please, guys, we really need the money!”
Just make a good pirate game based on Black Flag already, you already have the game, throw out the AC stuff, put in more pirate stuff, done. This can’t be that hard.
Meh.
It’s a good game, and imo still holds up decently well. This is just a cash grab.
And then… it gets cancelled just like Prince of Persia remake.
They just made two of them
Poopysoft is dead to me
At this point i dont want it anymore. Keept it.
The remake I wouldn’t touch with a ten-feet pole.
Can I ask why? I’m far removed from a lot of what’s going on. Black Flag was the only AC game I played through. Not the I didn’t try some of the earlier ones.
Is it general Ubisoft stuff or the game in particular?
I’m not the commenter you asked, but I think of Black Flag as a really conflicting game.
On one hand, all of the pirate stuff is really fun. Spearfishing, diving, being on your boat and plundering ships is probably the most fun in any oldschool Creed game.
But if I have to rate it as an AC game, it’s terrible. The story is middling at best, the protagonist is really unlikable, the whole Assasins vs. Templars theme feels shoved in needlessly and the main mission design is absolute ASS. It feels like 70% of all main missions have you tail someone…or something. I mean, the game has a mission where you have to sneekily tail a ship…with your ship. It’s almost like the game is parodying itself.
The only gamers that like remakes fall into one of these categories:
That’s my favorite game! I’d love to play it again!
Or
I didn’t get a chance to check it out the first time around, here’s my chance!
Wow, what crazy timing for AskYourUncle’s video about AC4.

I really want to play this, but I cannot in good conscience give money to Ubisoft.
Sadly, Ubisoft’s godlike digital rights protections are perfected in ways that my meager search engine typing skills could never trivially counter on a boring afternoon, assuming I don’t find a free pack-in copy before then on some kind of random mall kiosk plug and play TV game device.
Woe is me that I’ll have no choice but to ignore this game until a copy literally falls into my lap through random chance because software wants to be free.
Bunch of dumbasses at Ubisoft’s leadership ought to relearn that the paying games industry runs entirely on good will.
