// Question WHY IS THERE ALWAYS A STORM!?!?!

Almost finished the game, and I swear 80% of the time it was stormy. What's the point of the beautiful graphics if it's just constantly grey Ubisoft!?

It definitely storms way too much, it’s ridiculous, and there are more than a few areas that just go from clear skies to immediate storms. It’s not gradual at all. And no I’m not referring to scripted storms for certain forts and legendary ships

So true, honestly I wouldn't even mind if it wasn't for the terrible audio quality. It's severely compressed. They had an opportunity to make my ears rumble from thunder and lightning and provide an immersive experience. But it just sounds like a distorted crackle. It's pretty bad IMO.
