I know people are bored to tears with games right now. I hear that. There’s nothing out there worth putting more than 20 minutes into nowadays. Even WoW looks enticing because at least the time you put in, you get back. But, WoW is more played out than Wimpy’s fleshlight and something new looks so much better versus something you’ve already raped repeatedly. I’ve been the least active of the Pirates crew but that’s more to time constraints than not liking the game. It’s actually a very technical and challenging game with more depth than you can imagine. Pirates of the Burning Seas just had a major patch so it does show the dev team is expanding their already large universe.

The main time spent playing will be in naval combat. You’re quest lines for your class will have you sailing the seas doing tasks and taking out other ships. As you progress you’ll be able to build and trade for better parts to build better ships. When you first start playing it’s a bit light as you get your initial quests and blast little sloop’s with your wimpy cannons. But once you progress and get some real firepower and learn that combat while sailing is a lot harder than clickety clackin’ on some dude standing still I’ll wager you’d be digging it. This is because the PvP is pretty cool and gratifying and is much more fun in a group of Hostile’s. There’s buddy keys out there to try before you buy so if you want a complex MMO then you might want to try this one out.
