    34 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

While the game offers a variety of quests and a large map, veterans of the series express disappointment over the absence of substantial narrative content compared to previous titles.

    • “There are no restrictions on the plot or deadlines for completing tasks - you are free to explore the world of the Caribbean and create your own story.”
    • “The game doesn't limit me with linear quests or storyline progression, allowing me to create my own pirate legend.”
    • “But it doesn't need new models, new, deeper quests and storylines.”
    • “I'm glad I tried the free sandbox first, because the reviews on the full game say it's the same as the free sandbox version only with a storyline with glitchy quests.”
    • “While the main strength of the game was always story content, which this one lacks, in addition to sandbox gameplay, it is a good demo of the full game still.”
