Wait that’s not on steam anymore? Is there an easy way to find what in your library can’t be purchased anymore?

Yeah, it was the same for me. I loved playing the demo on the PS3 back in the days. You can actually get it from key resellers which is what I did. However, I think they sell for about 80€ or so which is insane. I thought it was expensive when I bought it for 30€.

Anyone who still financially supports Ubisoft is at their own fault at this point.

Haha, they’re pulling Black Flag so so that Skull & Bones has less competition.

Plot twist: they’re renaming Skull and Bones to Black Flag remastered

Nah… I would guess a remaster or something at some point. The skull&bones game has been dead for a long time…they will release it as they legally have to…but they will not give a crap after.

I saw my wife playing this years ago, and always fancied having a go, but never got around to it.

So a few months back we got it going so it could stream to our Apple TV and off I went. Spent a few weeks playing it in the evenings and having a nice time.

Then Ubisoft put out an ‘update’ to it, that broke it completely. A massive update for a ten year old game. Cunts.

So I guess I’ll never finish it, because fuck Ubisoft.

Not really an advocate for piracy but I wouldn’t have any qualms about recommending that route to you.

It feels very much in the spirit of the game.

Is it piracy? He owns a license for the game.

Are Ubisoft or Rockstart Games pirates for using scene cracks themselves?

Technically it’s not.

They don’t even need a new copy of the game, just the cracked .exe file.

Arguably so, as they did not get the scene group’s permission to redistribute their works.

I wouldn’t stress it; you didn’t miss much. Like every modern Ubisoft title, the game was very repetitive. You had enough playtime to see everything the game had to offer.
