"Skull and Bones: A Pirate Game Plagued by Poor Reviews and Development Woes"

Ubisoft's long-awaited game Skull and Bones has received the lowest user score on Metacritic for a 2024 release so far, with 73% of user reviews being negative. The game, which was delayed multiple times and reportedly cost around $200 million, has been criticized for being slow, boring, and lacking the pirate-themed fun of its predecessor, Assassin's Creed: Black Flag. Despite the company's insistence on its "quadruple-A" status and $70 price tag, the game has failed to impress players, prompting comparisons to other titles that have improved over time.
