Looks like an interesting game. It's a pirate themed MMO that takes place in the early 1700s. It seems to do a good job of replicating the genre without adding the stupid Hollywood stuff like cursed treasures and **** like you would see in a certain Disney pirate movie. Looks to be a refreshing twist to the MMO market.

I haven't bought it yet but I'm thinking about it. Does anyone here play it? How is it?

Apparently they recreated the whole Caribbean to use in the game. The graphics are nothing groundbreaking, but most MMOs arent eye candy. I really wish I could try it before buying it though. Apparently you get a code for a friend to use when you buy the game, I was hoping someone on here would have one but I doubt it.

Pirate settings have never appealed to me. Not sure why. I like some of the game's concepts (like a PVP controllable world) but the pirate setting totally turns me off.

I liked the first one. I went into it expecting a ****ty kids film like Alladin or something. It actually turned out to be a very good movie. The other two just played off of the success of the first. To be fair I only saw the second one once, and I was balls deep in a chick for half the movie. The third one I only saw once as well, and it was at Emagine where you can order drinks. I had a few before getting to the theater then polished off my buzz with a tall Long Island and a Sam Adams Cherry Wheat at the theater. I did like the drinks, I know that much.

IMO, the second was okay, but the third was REALLY good.
