Skull and Bones is huge, so expect to spend a lot of time travelling. I managed to locate Singapore in the East Indies and travel there, where it's known as a pirate den called Telok Penjarah, but getting there took me almost 15 to 20 minutes of listening to shanties

I really don't want to defend an 80 dollar game in any capacity, but this is exactly what I wanted from it. Sailing around listening to sea shanties (and occasionally attacking British ships and outposts) was the good part of ACIV.

yeah but that's a separate complaint from "the map is really big and you have to sail too much in this sailing game"

improve the combat and he would still complain about it taking 20 minutes to get to the east indies
