Do not compare this game with any other, simply enjoy it for what it is! Spent some pleasant hours on it without realizing it therefore it has achieved its purpose for me :p Do jobs around the map, gather resources, upgrade your ship, have PvE and PvP(optional) fights or simply trade with merchants around the map. From streams I saw that there are sooooooo many other things to do as well which I didn't experience yet! Also both cross-play and cross-progressive which is rare these days.

At this point, if you commit such a lump of money for a base game (which probably will have seasons, DLC's) you're paying for the unique concept and HOPES what this game COULD be in the future..

Which would be, at least, more sophisticated third person experience, faction wars, missions, not just ship-avatars crossing the ocean, and having a go.

Unfortunately, giving that the game is aimed at bringing in the most revenue, instead value for the money to the players, which imo. should be ANY DECENT DEV. goal, as this creates new gamer generations, going for cross play, the in depth game sophistication as you would expect on a decent PC game has completely neglected in the dev. process.

Awful game designs, boring story, disgusting boss battles. A full on fail by Ubisoft. I do find it fun if I just ignore the main story and just explore the world and different ships etc. But otherwise it's a disaster.
  • Can be fun if ignoring the main story
  • Awful story
  • Bad boss fights
  • Bad game design

When you drop a big chunk of cash on a base game, you're not just buying what's there now. You're investing in its potential and hoping it'll evolve into something even better in the future with seasons and DLCs.

Ideally, that means a richer third-person experience with faction wars, missions, and more than just basic gameplay. But it seems like developers are more focused on making money than giving players their money's worth. In my opinion, any decent developer should prioritize delivering value to players, not just chasing profits.

For $79.99, players should expect a lot: deeper content, the ability to shape the game world with their choices, character progression, alliances between players, a bustling in-game economy, and more.

I hope the game lives up to those expectations!
  • Concept, Graphics, music
  • Nice, expensive trailer..
  • HUGE MARKET POTENTIAL!
  • Lack of content
  • ULTRA inflated price

Cataclysmic, catastrophic

This game is 10 years old and should never have been released

Everything is outdated

And Y. Guillemot calls this a AAAA, what

a joke !

Boring like ever

And the price , what a shame...

A top game that draws you in from the first minutes and you don't notice the hours flying by. It is interesting to play both alone and with friends. Freedom of action, various improvements, quests - cool, I recommend it.

Im so surprised over this game in a bad way, how can they even think that it was ready.

I do not like anything about it, and the price is not fair at all!

If you really wanna try it out buy it on a really cheap sale, or find a website where u can try the game and other games for a monthly price.

They want u to shut down your security on your pc before u can play, so they can get all your informations!
  • Character creation, Graphics, price, Controls, map
  • U can do 2 things primarily, sail or craft...
  • They want to have every information from your pc

Having fun so far, lets hope that they deliver on their promise and actually add updates over time, as the end game is lacking right now.

Roadmap is promissing, looking forward to future updates.

Try to find someone to cooperate though, as you might have trouble otherwise later on.

  • Fun fights
  • Enjoyable early to mid game loop
  • Live service
  • End game is lacking
  • Few ships at the moment
  • Unbalanced PVP, hard SOLO

Intense Fights with different kinds of enemies brings in some variation.

A lot of Cosmetics for your Ship and your Character.

Many different kinds of ressources to farm and use.

Saldy not much PVP.Recomended.

Recomended.A very cool game, I didn't expect that in this genre of games there would be quite a lot of freedom of action.

I recommend it to anyone who doesn't want to bother planning the next step too much and just enjoy the gameplay and graphics.Good game.@
