“I really like this old style pirate RPG and the reworked graphics of this well known old game works for me. Thanks to the people who worked on this.”
“Good things: Fantastic game. It is very fun to play and the story for the main questlines is quite good. The ship combat is great and a lot of fun. The game looks quite beautiful and gameplay isnt complicated at all.…”

“Still a janky, badly programmed, unforgiving, bugged and unrewarding game for masochists. 1997 level graphics, 1995 UI, writing translated from Russian by a Martian and bad storylines. When a game's difficulty is set by…”
“I want to like this game... but it is a total infohazard. Trying to find any reliable information on quests or achievements in this game is a nightmare. You can flub things up and fail them without ever being informed…”
“This is OLD SCHOOL, if you like the theme and hardcore RPGs, you'll love this. Sadly, even after a ton of quality of life improvements, there's still some jank to contend with, nothing too bad, though, game is still…”

“This game has clearly earned a place among the best video games I’ve ever played. The sense of freedom is immense, offering countless hours of gameplay. It reminds me of Morrowind, where you explore an open world and discover quests on your own by talking to NPCs rather than…”
