Yeah. Everything I read said “ZOMG, this is the pirate game we’ve been waiting for for the last decade! It’s amazing!” No. A pirate game where you can only swim for 15 seconds before you die, where you lose every naval battle, where a bird that humans made extinct because it was so underpowered kills you is not the pirate fantasy I was waiting for.
The build system is great. I wish I could do 1/50th of the customization on my ship that I can on my house. Really, setting up a pirate cove should be end game, not the first thing you do.
Great point, it’s wild that you can build an island spanning castle pretty fast but you can’t even get a bedroom on your ship. I’d like to be turning the ship into a mobile base so that going ashore is in the action loop instead of just being a bleedin’ land lubber who gets on the ship just sometimes
