Some say this game has been in development for over a decade, so what have we got at the end of it? Is this truly 'quadruple-A' quality as Ubisoft says? Alex...
I just bought black flag on steam for a ridiculous low price. The Ubisoft launcher is extremely painful, you have to be online to launch the game and you have to sign in every single time you want to play. (If anyone knows how to bypass that please share. I couldn’t find an exe that will skip the launcher).
Other than that, damn it’s a good game. It looks and plays like something from the end of it’s decade instead of early like it was.
It’s pretty sad seeing the dev team that created skull and bones coming up with a worse game. I feel for them. That’s a quote from a dev that says something like “we all know it’s a $30 game” so you know everyone that actually had to do work on the game are probably frustrated.
Higher management that force stupid ideas should be nowhere near games.
E. You don’t need to crack the game. There’s a simple mod on the Nexus for Black Flag called Fullscreen Fix that removes the Ubi launcher and online requirements.
I have the Ubisoft version of black flags and also run into the same log in and UAC pop ups for black flags and other older games. Ubisoft doesn’t even care to get its launcher right for their own games that is purchased directly from them.

crack the game
Don’t need to. A simple mod removes it.
Steam on Linux only requires it the first time you launch.

Sounds like you need to sail the high seas 🙃
