By cons, what I expected for ages, it's the fact of playing a "pirate".
While some appear to me Guybrush side of the old school, including me and I'd agreements. But there it will want more "realist" (of course we remove the tripe "first civilization," "animus", "Abstergo" etc.). You really feel an investigative work by the creator to make the game safe.
And on this point, it is "enjoyable!"
Well ... of course, it's a video game, so the hero is super hefty, in a great ship, etc, etc .. BUT being able to move anywhere (almost) to discover islands (really large), play "pirate" by addressing ship, plundering of cash delivery, whaling (f.uck PETA is JUST a video game), etc., CA is really up.
In this game there is a pirate, a murderer. It is well done (for what that is) and I regret my purchase!
In fact, I have more to buy the game for the title "black flag" that "assassin's creed" and I'm not disappointed with the result.
PS: 4 out of 5 stars, perfection, would remove some ugly -always mêmes- the physical bug.
