I spent an hour or two reading up on this game and I have to say I'm impressed. I'm more of a EQ type of person, but after months playing that steaming pile of manure Vanguard I'm open to anything. I remember playing PoTC on the Amiga way back then and it was a blast. It's a breath of fresh salty air, reading about what's in this game and realising the devs actually know what they're doing. This is certainly a game I will be buying.
My fear is long term appeal. I mean how long will it take for people to craft l33t sails and cannons, surely there can't be much variety? There's a finite number of ships and weapons etc, combinations that everyone will have 3 months down the line. My only other concern is the PvP port reset function, I understand why it's there but I can't help wondering if they could change it.
See you all in the high seas.

I am also very excited about this game coming out. It reminds me a lot of "Sid Meiers Pirates" with the type of Naval battles. That game however lacked the avatar system that this game has and I can't wait to roam around on a 102 cannon ship.
