I love pirate games so I gave it a shot and boy o boy I shouldn't. While the game world is like on the sea when steering the ship or the cities and harbours look great (for the time), the gameplay is where it starts to suck. Fighting with your sword is a total mess. You try to take jabs at your opponent but he blocks 80% of the time and you hurt him slightly (when you hit him at all). You on the other hand have such a small time window to block. I wanted to see more of the world and the story but this fight mechanics without any feelable impact ruined it for me. But the fact that the characters are not likeable or interesting at all (including your playable character which is an ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥) made my decision to stop playing easier.
