I just finished my first playtime slot and here are my thoughts on the game.
While the game is obviously good, it's also obviously early on in its stages.
These are not complaints, just trying to help the devs.
Of my 3 hours in the game, 80% was spent loading, crashing, and cringing from lag spikes.
Upon starting the game, the main menu screen had about 60 fps on high. This game's graphics aren't anything close to remarkable, but that is because this game is old, I get that. But my fps, I hope will be to big to fit on the screen when this game is finished, because I'm on a gaming PC. My problem here is that I can't change the graphics. If I set them on low, I'm told I need to restart to take effect. When the game starts back up it crashes. When I start it back up a second time, my graphics go back to high. I have to play with low fps. (In game averages about 5-20 fps)
As far as glitches and bugs go, here is what I remember:
When entering Barbossa's Grotto the first time, I was okay, but when I took a step forward, the cutscene tried to load and crashed the game. While on my ship, I would get stuck on the steering wheel after hitting shift which didn't give me control of the ship. As soon as I tried teleporting to another island to fix it, the game crashed. A lot of the time just loading an area crashed the game. I fell through the map plenty of times when in buildings. This happened by just talking to people in buildings. Trying to spawn the ship often crashed. And entering the gunshop on the shore of Tortuga was kind of broken. The door to exit is a wall on the other side of the building, and entering or talking to the guy at the counter, many times crashed the game.
I hope this is helpful and can be used to improve the game. I will post more of these after my next hours.
