I worked on it a lifetime ago.  I hope for success

Supposedly, it's about as shitty as one would expect from Ubisoft these days.

Looks like a mobile game. Supposedly they wanted to scrap it, but would be in deep shit with the Singapore government. I’ll catch it when it’s $20.

There is a free 8 hour trial right now.

I would play it for yourself before buying into the hate train. I’ve put around 10 hours in, it’s not nearly as bad as the haters are going on about.

I've put in about 30 hours in the game and it isn't bad. It reminds me a lot of RDR Online/Fallout 76 but with boats. Map size is about the same, some of the mission and pop-up events are even similar. I just kind of wish they didn't decide to go the "seasons" route and just do a bigger release and keep it going with later DLCs or something. Either way, I'm having fun, I've finished the quests at the starter base and moved on to the East Indies quests now, and once I finish it I'll most likely set it aside until the next zones get released.
