    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.

      Haven't played the original, but why does this game need remade?

            Is this just going to be Black Flag using the Skull and Bones platform? The snake is eating it's own tail now.

              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)

                That’s 3

                Black Flag is a pirate game that they slapped the name on and loosely tied some gameplay into

                  For money, they already remastered the ones before it

                    They didn't take a pirate game and slap the AC name on it. They took an AC game with ship mechanics, dialed down the assassin, and dialed up the ships.

                    It's a direct iteration on AC3 in every way.

                      The ship section is just going to be the entirety of Skull and Bones, bolted on to this game. It'll just swap the entire game to the Skull and Bones executable. They will recuperate their money on that game! It's only a failure if you give up!

                          If you liked AC, then Black Flag wasn't it. I personally loved 3, but wasn't the biggest fan of the boats and pirate stuff. Black Flag only made all of that worse.

                          Everyone's got their own opinions, but to say AC Black Flag isn't just a pirate game with AC slapped on it isn't being very honest.

                            AC3 is literally the worst mainline AC game, and I've played them all. And all you ubi haters don't worry, I only paid for the very first one.

                                          AC3 is literally the worst mainline AC game, and I've played them all. And all you ubi haters don't worry, I only paid for the very first one.

                                          It's so diluted, the pacing sucks. The whole character switcheroo is dumb since all the promotionnal stuff had Connor on it.
