    I bet it’s just assassins creed.

    Sail the seas, activate ice bergs to unlock the map, gather five million useless trinkets.

      I played a closed beta quite a while back and it’s pretty much this. Was all set to play the whole weekend but only made it like 2 hrs in before uninstalling. it feels like just fetch quests, and checking off boxes, and I didn’t find it fun at all.

          I play one game at a time until I beat it or decide it isn’t worth playing. I’m currently playing Black Flag for the first time and am about 35 hours into it.

          I’m still holding interest, but it’s pretty damned repetitive and full of fetch quests and check boxes.

            If you’re not enjoying your time at sea, on the ship itself, I’d recommend powering through the quest line, possibly the legendary ship battles and leave it there.

            I stopped trying to 100% after AC2, and sped through the ‘housekeeping’ pre-assassination missions. Follow this guy, loot this chest, pick her pocket, etc gets real old quick

              I absolutely hated the sea stuff. I played black flag for like two or three hours then I never touched it again.

              I really enjoyed Sea of Thieves, though I wasn’t a huge fan of the direction they took the game.
