Real Talk: Is there anyone here that thinks that this is one the best games ever made?

I'm curious about your answers. I haven't played much because the game is a bit convoluted and obscure but so is Dark Souls.
But it seems that every detail on this game was carefully constructed, even if the mechanics are a bit annoying.

I've seen all kinds of games favorited (even though I think they're very mediocre and not polished), so I'd love to read some comments.

No? I think the game is quite good if it matches your preferred niches.
Personally, I like trading and exploring, also, it feels like an attempted spiritual successor to Uncharted Waters, from which series I played the 2nd quite a bit back in the day.

There are however, several things that appear to have been... not fully fleshed out. The Lounge cabin comes to mind here, it seems to have no use: I think it was supposed to let your officers heal up after expeditions or battles, but actually they get insta-healed afterwards. Plus the Manors and the like in many ports, a few get used in quests, but most of them are never used.

There are plenty of other minor bugs, like things that should've been translated but got missed, or poor explanations. And, while I haven't been hit with it, there's apparently a black-screen bug that makes playing ever again impossible? So far, I've seen no one mention a fix for that, either.

If you can ignore those things, the game can be a lot of fun. I, myself, have played through every captain, though I prefer the chinese one (merchant type), and have come back and replayed a few times.



(Now, if only Steam would stop recommending me Pirate-type games, apparently due to how I play several exploration and trading games that just happen to be set in the Age of Sail...)
