I don’t dispute that they’re running out of ideas, but Black Flag was released in 2013. That was ten years ago, and if they’re still just in the planning stage, we won’t see the remake for another 3-5 years at least. I don’t think it’s gonna be recent by then.
I’d much rather like to see a sequel/prequel/some form of extending work than a remake though. I like Black Flag more than the entire rest of the Assassin’s Creed series so I’m hella excited, but idk if a remake would add that much.
