TL;DR Summary

Ubisoft's long-awaited game Skull And Bones, originally conceived as a spin-off of Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag, has finally been released after years of development. However, the game, which focuses on naval battles and sailing, seems to lack the imagination and depth of its predecessor. Despite being priced at $70, it includes features typically found in free-to-play games, such as a battle pass and in-game store for real-money purchases. Critics argue that the game may have been left behind in terms of innovation and fails to justify its cost, especially when compared to the more imaginative and complex Black Flag.
