This game is amazing. There is no other game like it, with its PvPvE gameplay where you actually feel like your living in its world. The art style is timeless, the music is fantastic. It still gets regular large updates. I think the developers (Rare) are great they are transparent and seem to really care about the game. Its not just a regular multiplayer game, you can play it however you want. Do you want to be super competitive, do hourglass and be aggressive. Do you want to just chill and get some money, do some regular voyages for merchant or even tall tales such as the amazing Pirates of the Caribbean crossover.
