Well, after watching any videos of this game many times, I've come to a few conclusions.
It's beautiful in a Far Cry way. Great graphics.
I'm not interested and here's why:
It looks based on the Team Fortress engine or similar and the play is literally the same. To me it's a team fortress knockoff only this time it's pirates and ships. Nothing wrong with fortress, just I'm not into twitch trigger games. Everything is hurry up and run with your loot back to your island to sell it.
The ship sailing was beautiful, but weird. I loved the damage graphics but not the cut scene looking switch and water aiming thing.
This may turn on many folks, but tlopo and this are two different games. This is my own opinion and I'm biased toward open world lay back games like tlopo seem to be like to me.
Now if the tlopo crew can get into todays game engines and look like 'thieves' but keep the mechanisms and game play the same, I would gladly buy tlopo and or pay a subscription and tlopo would have a permanent home on my computer.
It does now, even in beta.
