Day 10 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots

Today’s Game is Assassins Creed Black Flag. Honestly I’m kind of impressed I made it too 10 days. I totally expected myself to miss a day on my streak. Also. A few people in the past have asked about posting screenshots in the comments or stealing the idea for their own posts. Assuming the mods are chill with it I have no issues with people doing either of those things. I just want people to have fun

Would’ve been a really great game if it weren’t an Assassin’s Creed, but just a pirate game.

Breezy ,

Naw its the best assassins creed game because its the best pirate game so far.

They listened to fans about wanting a Ubisoft pirate game and made Skull and Bones

I don’t see why the name would matter much, it was a great game regardless.

EarMaster ,

How come that you kept all these screenshots?

Some of them I take Day of the post (Like the Fallout one yesterday). Others I keep just because I think they look pretty. Steam Cloud storage holds onto them for me so I don’t have much of a reason to get rid of them. I also just really like taking very Landscape-esque shots which i feel leads me to be less likely to delete them

XeroxCool ,

Do you not have a whole archive of screenshot because it looked cool at the time and then it didn’t really hit the same later when you no longer had the context of the action? Just me?

AgentGrimstone ,

That’s why I take videos. I have hard drives of my very average gameplay but I still feel the satisfaction I got when I was actually playing when watching them.

I knew this would take off. It’s very refreshing. 🤗

Yarr!

Please keep going!

Black Flag is one of my all-time favorite gaming experiences. Crazy how long ago it was, covering my feet with a blanket during winter, humming pirate songs while sailing in the open sea.

I get that. I played it originally on PS3 when I was younger. To this day the PS3 controller is just the most comfortable way for me to play it just because of the nostalgia I have for sitting in bed playing it buried under a fuckton of blankets with my head poking out

I way prefer these kind of gaming posts than the gaming “news”. So please keep posting these.

Does the Pirate Ship gameplay in black flag still hold up? I remember everyone used to rave about how good it was.

I just replayed it for at least the 10th time. The answer is yes.

I will say that I am incredibly biased for this game. To the point that My friends when we play Sea of Thieves always have to listen to me (jokingly) complain about how Sea of Thieves should control the ship more like Black Flag. But I still find that its naval controls is by far one of my favorite methods of doing it. It’s done in a way where it’s not too clunky and you need to micromanage, but it doesn’t take away from the action and makes you really feel epic. At least that’s how I personally about it

XeroxCool ,

I’d like to answer as someone without nostalgia: yes it does. I played Odyssey in 2020 and IV 2022-current. The ship mechanics are very enjoyable to me. I beleive Odyseey made it more polished but I can’t actually remember how, so it must not be that important

maniel ,

Yeah, the best AC, unfortunately I lost my saves because I uninstalled some stupid Ubisoft tool

MyNameIsAtticus OP ,
@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

I made that mistake with AC Unity. Got sent from the 6th section all the way back to the 4th. Nearly a year later and I still haven’t picked it back up to finish it

maniel ,

Unity was awesome too, my only gripe was the crowds, like streets and corridors full of people, just walking, partying maybe, this hanging my then GPU

Blackmist ,

The best AC because it contains the least amount of AC.

zaphod ,

The best AC is either Origins or Odyssey.

HappycamperNZ ,

Origins was great, but I’m sorry the best was 2

Blackmist ,

2 definitely felt like they’d finally built a game around the tech demo that was 1.

Agreed. It might not be the best one but I have a real soft spot for revelations, old man Ezio is a very compelling character, the setting, wrapping up arc for characters. We get plenty of Egypt in games but I can recall ever getting the Ottoman Empire.

Also Unity is underrated, if it had been polished at launch I hold it would have been the best game in the original style gameplay series by far.

Blackmist ,

Loved the old man Altair bits as well.

I think Unity’s main issue was they marketed the multiplayer heavily, but it was only in the game for an extremely limited number of missions.

They managed to annoy single player gamers and multiplayer gamers in one stroke.

They got overambitious with the crowds as well, leading to poor performance on consoles, along with a whole load of weird bugs. I played it on PC years later (maybe when the Notre Dame burned down?) and there were still parts of the game bugged, or chugged down to 20 fps for no reason.

Blackmist ,

I don’t hate them as games, but the need for gear to be able to actually do assassinations on the bigger guys somewhat makes it not an AC game any more. Still the same slightly tired gameplay, but the one element that made it satisfying is no longer there.

Usernamealreadyinuse ,

Man i played this game a lot! Sadly I missed a couple of your posts because i think it’s cool way to reminisce
