I can see the appeal of, but this feels like a game I missed the window on. I understand why people have good memories of it. The problem is that coming to it now, the game feels old, clunky, and mostly past its prime. For a multiplayer-only game, the small player base really hurts it. A game like this depends on full crews and active servers, and without that, the whole experience loses a lot of energy. Even when I got into matches, the movement, combat, presentation, and overall polish felt dated. Not terrible, just too late. I would not recommend it unless you already have friends willing to play with you or you are specifically nostalgic for this kind of janky pirate multiplayer game.
