Games with impressive seas that I’ve played so far:
Assassin’s Creed Rogue was a hidden Black Flag 2 that came out when Assassin’s Creed Unity came out (Unity was a new engine for new consoles, but Rogue was a throwaway remix of the older game for 360 and PS3).
I recently went back through Black Flag because Ubisoft added Steam achievements to a select list of their old games, which I’m a sucker for. The game was fun to play again, tons of fun, so I’d imagine Rogue would be good, too. Although I have a friend that likes Black Flag that swears that Rogue was boring.
Although, a warning, Ubisoft cucked me in getting achievements because they actually removed DLC from the clients. You actually cannot play them without modding, and even then I’m struggling to get content that I paid for. That’s a small portion of the game if you don’t care about achievements, but it’s still something to watch out for, ESPECIALLY if you plan on purchasing the game. They sell Freedom Cry, one of Black Flag’s DLCs, separately now (might/might not have sailing in it).

Odyssey is more recent but Black Flag definitely has better storms
Why the “Flag” get removed?
Woops, typo
