From its battles on the high seas (which are visually breathtaking), to the sea itself, this visuals look very good at this point. Storms, waterspouts and the environment all effect your travel, and look very convincing. The towns are the only place we see that could use a bit of brushing up, this one was built to be on the water. Speaking of the water – we’ve mentioned the battles you’ll get into on the beautiful sea? Yeah… avoid them while you are still new; we found ourselves running like little girls from any confrontation due to the learning curve while in battle on the water. You can switch to first person to fire cannons, or stay in the third person and issue the fire command as the cannons are loaded. Either way the other ships will keep your hands full (they can attack more than one at a time), so be sure and look into getting yourself a bigger more powerful ship with lots of cannons!
