"Pirates of the Burning Sea is an odd kettle of fish. It’s pretty ugly and mediocre to look at for the most part, but it does have a certain rugged appeal to the presentation. The control system and style of combat is difficult to get to grips with and poorly explained, but rewarding nonetheless and worth a look. The quests too are flawed, proving dull for the most part but thrillingly epic if you want to get into the spirit of it all.
So, with how many contradictions, how are we supposed to judge a game as massive and open as that of The Burning Sea. Reviewing an MMO is a challenge at the best of times and we’ve barely scratched the surface of what’s on offer on these high seas.
The final and ultimate test of any virtual world is the how populated it is and that’s something that is hard to judge too, confined as we are to the early days of this particular game. However, it has to be said that even to us the game looked like it had a good number of players onboard. Better, since everybody always wants an excuse to dress like a pirate, there were hardly any bright pink trolls running around calling each other n00bs.
If that’s not a sign of quality, I don’t know what is.
Pirates of the Burning Sea may be a little damaged by some flaws and contradictions in the game design, but the truth of the matter is that there’s a little piece of eight buried somewhere inside and if you take the time to uncover it then you may well find yourself an MMO worthy of your attention for at least a few months." _________________
I'm not playing it, I played it in beta. Its not a bad game, sea travel is a bit slow IMHO. But then it could be in real life as well. Since you have to depend on wind conditions.
