You can choose where and when you go, what missions you want to take, whether to work as a government stooge, become a trader or go pirate, and whether or not you want to participate in the story. Unfortunately, most of the non-story based missions are rather boring, as is trading. There's no economic model at all. Every island always trades, buys, and bans the exact same products. The last, of course, assumes that you actually manage to play the game at all.
Put simply, this is a game that's so incomplete and badly balanced that it's almost impossible to play at all. First, the interface is simply atrocious. The default keyboard setup is nearly impossible to use. Even when the keys are remapped, though, it seems like to you have to press an awful lot of keys to do even the simplest things. Even better, when you buy and sell personal inventory items, you won't be able to sell them unless they've been unequipped -- meaning you have to go to another screen two or three key presses , unequip the item, and then come back to sell it another two or three presses.
Then there are the things that are simply missing -- like a map of the entire game world. While navigating my ship on the ocean, it'd be nice if I actually knew where I was going rather than sailing at random hoping to find the right island. It gets even worse once you get into combat. Despite the game's supposed RPG-Like emphasis on improving your ability scores, swordfighting is all about reflexes, movement, and timing.
Players have control over attacking with a sword, blocking, dodging and moving, and firing a pistol -- which would be fine if the game had been an action game. As it stands, though, your control is so iffy that the best you can usually do is hold the block button until you hopefully get an opening to swing your sword. Leave yourself open for an instant, though, and you're almost guaranteed to get hit. Even so, this system would have been okay if you only fought one or two people at the same time.
The problem is that you'll frequently be faced with seven or eight people whaling on your back while you're dealing with the guy in front of you. When that happens, its time to fire up a saved game. Those with a taste for blood and vengeance can become a bounty hunter, or the true freedom of a pirate's life can be enjoyed with no strings attached. Players begin the game by creating a character with limited skills in the areas of ship control, trading, fighting, and various other traits.
As players become more proficient at sailing, their attributes will gradually increase and non-player characters may join their ranks. As in titles like Pirates: The Legend of Black Kat, the action is divided into two parts: sailing and visiting islands or towns. While sailing across the sea, players are responsible for steering, raising and lowering sails, monitoring crew and prisoners, and managing cargo and armaments.
Computer-controlled characters will tag along while players enter towns and travel across islands, and even join in on fights. Exploring islands may reveal smuggler's lairs or hidden treasure caves to add to one's coffers, while towns are filled with buildings such as taverns, shipyards, and churches that players can enter to purchase items or to speak with characters.
Combat on the seas may involve multiple ships at once as well as sieges on fortresses, and players have the option to board enemy vessels to steal their crew and whatever goods they may be carrying. Originally known as Sea Dogs II, Pirates of the Caribbean was re-titled to promote the feature film, which in turn was inspired by the popular Disney attraction.
Pirates of the Caribbean was the last theme park ride overseen by Walt himself. His careful attention to detail earned the ride generations of devoted fans. Recently, that legacy was added to by the release of a surprisingly good feature film bearing the ride's name. With so much going for it, you'd think that the PC version of Pirates of the Caribbean which is merely Sea Dogs 2 with a name change would be an easy slam dunk. Think again. Pirates of the Caribbean is a sad mess that not only has virtually nothing to do with the movie or the ride, but is a pretty poor game in its own right.
Somewhere Walt is spinning in his cryo-tube. Let's start off with the obvious. What does this game have to do with Pirates of the Caribbean? Quick answer: not much. Keira Knightley, who was in the movie, does the narration voiceover for the game, but she's not even playing a specific character. The storyline concerns one Captain Nathaniel Hawk, freebooter and mercenary, unleashed on the 17th century with little more than one ship, a rusty sword, and his wits.
After a brief tutorial, the French invade the port he begins the game in, which sets off a story that culminates in the discovery of an ancient artifact and a battle against a shipful of undead sailors.
