What is the best Sea based game out there in your opinion? (fedia.io)

I'm talking about things like:

most realistic physics most aesthetically pleasing sea most fun to play most immersive (pun intended (I'll sea myself out)) most activities available at sea most variety of sea going vessels

Games with impressive seas that I've played so far:

Assassin's Creed Odyssey (Triremes and heaving seas) Just Cause 3 (Sparkling blue mediterranean seas) Sea of Thieves (Monsters and pirates) Sailwind (Gentle seas and actual sailing mechanics) Silent Depth 2 Pacific (Sneaky WW2 subs) Cold Waters (Sneaky modern subs) Uboat (Beautiful WW2 seas, rare shooting opportunities) Subnautica (Thalassophobia and crafting)

I've also noticed that Ships at Sea has just gone on sale. If you've played it recently was it any good?

I also need to add Fluffy Sailors which I bought today. So cute and so much fun :)

Is Black Flag good to play if you don't like or follow the over arching story of Assassins Creed?

I felt like it kind of pulled me out of other games in the series

It is, but you have to progress a little in the AC story (or download a save somewhere) and then only play the naval gameplay.

Although it is nice to be able to walk on a small patch of sand looking for a treasure or going to a city. It is an AC after all so foot and parkour gameplay is good. It offers a nice change of pace from being on your ship. Unlike the -- Ahem -- quadruple A Skull & Bones...
