With Skull & Bones' studio “heavily involved” Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag was always one of the better-loved entries in the series, taking the stealthy shenanigans onto the high seas. The formula of chasing map markers remained the same as always, but the big differentiator was all the fun pirate stuff: customising your crew and ship, sinking enemy fleets, and hunting for treasure (and whales.) The real-life Abstergo stuff was also in first-person, which is the only reason I remember that part existed....

In space, everyone can hear you chit-chat Homeworld and its sequel were real-time strategy games that stuck in the memory mainly due to the atmosphere they managed to create via dialogue, music choices and striking ship designs. I had mentally labelled coming sequelHomeworld 3as “more of the same, but better looking”, without thinking much more about it. A new development update from developers Blackbird Interactive doesn’t so much prove me wrong as go into great detail about what “better looking” really means - while also making me excited about the new “flavor layer” of ship-to-ship communication....
