It's the era of the pirate game, it seems, as Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced approaches and other gems like Windrose and Sea of Thieves continue to make waves – but Ubisoft's remake might just make a bigger splash than the rest.
Or, at least, that's what game director Richard Knight seems to think. When asked recently by GamesRadar+ what not being an RPG does for Assassin's Creed, he explains, "A lot of it comes down to the narrative that we tell with Black Flag. It's always going forward. It's kind of like Edward himself – he's always pushing forward, he's making mistakes, and pushing to the next thing. And it turns into this epic."
That checks out, I suppose.
