Which brings me to the curse. Pirates of the Caribbean is an astounding game. Never have I felt closer to living on the seven seas than in Pirates of the Caribbean. By all accounts, this should be a serious contender for RPG of the Year. But the bugs tear this game apart like 10,000 knippel ripping through the sails of a Man of War. I honestly don’t know how most of these bugs got past the QA team. All I can figure is that the game was cursed by its movie tie-in. After all, movie-based games are supposed to falter, right? At least that’s what gaming tradition would have you believe.
