@@pax1217 People just don't like to admit that the majority of the time it's the higher ups in the studios and their shareholder masters that make the decisions, and the developers just have to do the best they can. I mean this game according to what Gameranx's reported in their video about S&B supposedly costed Ubisoft 120 million dollars in budget and that's probably not even fully accurate since that number was reported back in 2021 so who knows how much more cash got burned into this game three years later, at that point the shareholders were likely going "ok, where's our money" and they had to push the game out as it was just to try and make SOMETHING back.

fun fact in all the early play tests before the first "open beta" there was no stamina bar. Instead there was a morale system where you had to feed your crew or go back to port once in a while or your crew would cause a mutiny. It actually was a really fun system that forced you to pick your battles and although health slowly regenerated damage to your ship would also lower your max hp and morale. It added so many layers to the games core loop and systems that you actually felt that you were controlling a crew and not a ship. you wanted to hunt animals for better food for longer morale boosts. You wanted to avoid damage instead of just tanking it. You felt adrenaline when you just barely scrape an engagement, are out of food and had to rush back to shore to completely repair your ship and crew. the larger the ship the longer the morale took to drain but the less effective the food would be. I have no idea why they removed this system. Not only did it make moving across the map faster and more engaging, but it actually made the game feel like a complete product. also other fun fact. In the playtests your female first mate was this really cool stoic black guy that looked like he could kill a shark in a single punch. they removed him for the Indian woman you see today. No idea why the VA was vastly superior and his character design and personality was infinitely better.

@Machobunni
@Machobunni 2 месяца назад
Watching the entire thing now, but in case anyone isn't aware; the likely reason Skull and Bones was completed at all, is because Ubisoft was legally required to since they received money from the government. So, all the employee and team changes throughout the years, never having an official direction where to take the game, realizing they HAVE to make something because otherwise they'll be in big trouble, this game is the equivalent to writing a paper last minute because you just need something to submit.

Say what you want about Sea of Thieves. But they at least knew what they were doing. Your ship dosen't have a stamina bar. You can choose what ship you want if you dont want a sloop. ( there should be more ship types but still at least your not stuck with the sloop.) You have a lot of customaztion options Wind isnt broken in game. Your ship functions differently when wind is against it ( sloop will move faster against the wind) Each ship is useful in some way. You can walk around your ship and even get off and on your ship making exploring more fun as it allows you to go places. Plus theres things you can find or encounter in the game that make it exciting. Plus there's intresting missions.

Then there's the blatant management cancer that is all about corporate appearance that plagues every modern business. These execs were never gamers and the idea of what their audience is is now gone forever. Very few old studios remain that have their past identity and mostly the new ones show promise until they inevitably fall to the same date of losing top developers and hiring useless top managers

"a darker, grittier approach" Must be talking about the color palette and how physically dirty the pirates are because there isn't much dark and gritty about skull and bones. As far as I am aware no death is shown, no disease, no sexual assault; you know the actual dark and gritty parts of pirate life. All there is is drugs, alcohol, strong language, and discussion of murder. Its like they purposely were seeking an M rating to cater to an older audience, so they added strong language and drug references that sometimes would be removed to lower the rating.

As a Singaporean, I'm actually getting a lot of satisfaction from watching this game fail spectacularly. The government of Singapore has always prioritised technical skill over art and innovation, using its education system and the country's work culture to churn out obedient, hardworking, pragmatic workers while dissuading artists and creatives from pursuing their passions. This deal with Ubisoft is them trying to buy their way into the game industry without first taking steps to encourage and support homegrown indie talent. And their investment blew up in their face.

​@@jltheking3 I'm not saying there's anything wrong with offering subsidies. I'm saying the SG govt did so without first taking steps to organically nurture homegrown game development talent and cultivate a society where art isn't viewed as frivolous and impractical. When it comes to art, Singapore has an abundance of money but a lack of talent, whereas places like Hollywood have an overabundance of talent but not enough money to give them all jobs (hence the foreign subsidies). When it comes to addressing Singapore's lack of artistry, simply throwing money at the problem isn't going to work, and this game is testament to that fact. You can spend millions in taxpayer and foreign corporate money and still end up with a pile of garbage. And now the game development industry in SG has been humiliated on the global stage. When you say you work there do you mean Ubisoft Singapore? So you're essentially confirming the "alleged" report that Ubisoft took money from the govt and that's why they couldn't cancel this stinker? That's hilarious. Thanks for the confirmation. It actually gives me even more satisfaction to know that Ubisoft SG devs are watching this review, cos you are the ones who need to hear this criticism. Last question: did you all know while working on this game that it would be complete garbage?

@@jltheking3You sound like that Starfield dev whining about how hard game development is. No one cares dude. It is not the responsibility of the consumer or critic to understand how hard it is to make whatever they consume. They simply judge the final product and choose whether to spend their money on it or not. If my plane crashes can Boeing tell my family, "hey you don't understand how hard and complex aerospace engineering and maintenance is. Airbus can do it cos blah blah blah but most of us can't because blah blah." If you go to a steak restaurant and receive a burnt steak can the chef say, "making a steak in these working conditions is phenomenally hard, you don't understand." No, the consumer/end user shouldn't need to understand anything beyond "this product/service is worth my money." Y'all "AAA" devs sound so immature and insecure when you bring up Larian and BG3. BG3 aside, there are plenty of great games that were made by AAA/"quadruple A" studios that were beholden to shareholders and facing the same challenges y'all did (and probably more, without govt subsidies). It's very easy to see your situation as unique when you need to pardon your own failure. And sure, every game and its development process is unique, but being a unique snowflake doesn't excuse anyone from what is expected of them. And as your Singaporean parents probably told you too, "you should compare yourself to the best in your class, not the worst." And even if we understood on a deeper level why so many bad games get made, does that mean we shouldn't criticise? No. A bad game is a bad game regardless of the circumstances surrounding its development, and consumers have a right to know what they should spend their money on. So Joe and other critics are still doing the right thing, and absolutely nothing changes if we knew everything you know. Should I buy a bad game because it was made with suboptimal datelines, lacking manpower, the right skillset, the right team, lacking funding, and needing to fight the money people to get the game out the door? No. Knowing all that changes nothing. Not saying this game's failure is your fault specifically as a dev. Chances are Ubisoft management is mostly to blame. But you don't have to jump to their defence with the whole "boohoo video games are hard" argument. It's so played out at this point and for the reasons I've stated, I stress again, no one cares, nor should they.

The only good "pirate" or age of sail games I've played are: - Pirates of the Burning Sea (Sony killed it) - MMORPG with Great faction wars and an amazing collection of historical ships to sail and upgrade. - Sid Meiers Pirates - Great solo fun, but limiting of course because ai can be stale. - Uncharted Waters Online - MMORPG Great game simulating mercantilism and military resource building in an mmo environment. - Sea of Thieves - because it's the only really successful modern title, as it's an FPS with loot grinding. Nice waves. Every other title such as Naval Action, Hold Fast, other crap, are too niche to be successful. That and the only reliable servers are typically north american OR european, never both, and there's never any asian/oceanic servers (locking out a huge gaming commnity behind lag frustration)
