Beginning this game was really fun. For the right person it’s a long time consuming relaxing game with some nice rewards. But this is honestly if your lucky being that if your attacked and die and your boat sinks you loose everything. This can lead to heartbreaking losses of a few hours of work or a shrug from the loss of a castaway chest (lowest rarity chest). During a voyage me and my group were running a galleon. Finishing up and leaving to get to an outpost to turn in our loot. Unfortunately two had to go so it was me and one other of my friends. During this time it was the most chaotic and depressing 1 hour I’ve ever experienced. First we were heading back only 3 tiles away and then #1 we attacked by a skeleton ship #2 we were attacked by a kracken #3 we were attacked by a king shark (think this is correct term 3 dorsal fins blue/green eyes) #4 5min later shark comes back #5 we arrive at the island with no resources but a experienced duo of players waiting their #6 for whatever reason I’m unable to turn for 3 min do to a bug I encountered #7 I don’t know if this was some update but I was shot and killed by a flintlock at 75% hp so I don’t know if there is a headshot crit. Anyway these events lead to the downfall of 3 hours of work in which we got nothing out of it. Although this is a lot of ranting I do believe that this game has some really big flaws being time consuming random encounters that made getting from pint A to B 30 minutes long when it should have been 10. Even combat too it is not smooth in any way and if you die you sit in the ferry knowing your stuff is getting stolen. Anyway I do believe this game has still some good potential to grow and fix mistakes. Right now unfortunately there are to many things in finding my self unhappy about. (This review also was created the day the events happened so I am mad right now making it a bit biased)
