Pirates of the Carribean surprisingly has little to do with the film of the same name. The movie references do not become apparent in the main quest until right near the end with Black Pearl. However doing this has left the developers with a great deal of freedom and whilst some of the tasks can become repetitive and frustrating, for the most part RPG fans will be happy to complete the main quest. POTC is set in a turbulent time where pirates roamed the Sea and the French and British didn’t get along. After a short prologue/tutorial where you are taught how to buy things, hire crew and repair your ship the main quest begins. The French invade local colonies and it is up to you, Nathaniel Hawk, to stop this treachery and return peace to the people.
