    The gameplay is criticized for being repetitive, overly simplified, and lacking depth compared to the original, with issues in AI behavior, controls, and core trading mechanics. While it offers a sandbox RTS experience with some strategic elements, many players find it chaotic, tedious, and missing key features that defined previous entries. Overall, the gameplay feels shallow and unrefined, detracting from long-term engagement.

    • “The game captures the gameplay of the original.”
    • “Gameplay-wise: it's mostly a real-time strategy game (a very unique one): nothing forces you to play a specific gameplay, you are in full sandbox; simple mechanics, easy basics, lots of details to learn! From all these basic mechanics, you go and play as you like, even in campaigns!”
    • “The RTS-like mechanics were extremely simple, but the controls were often unresponsive.”
    • “It isn't bad but once you get 2 extra ports your gameplay is just click trade and sell.”
    • “Looks decent, but the gameplay is too fast, too chaotic, you have no control over anything.”
    • “It is missing core functionality that made old Patrician 3 enjoyable: proper trading, merchant routes, meaningful economy, and deeper naval gameplay.”

    The story campaigns are repetitive and limited in scope, primarily focusing on the same area with recurring mission types such as escorting, capturing ships, and recruiting spies. The missions are often seen as boring and predictable, with frustrating enemy respawns and map design issues, which undermine the overall narrative experience. Despite some strategic depth, the story fails to provide variety or engaging progression across different characters.

    • “The campaigns are the same for all characters: there's a mission where you have to escort, one where you have to capture ships, one where you have to recruit spies, and a handful of sink-or-conquer missions.”
    • “You get a ship or a handful at the beginning of the mission and a task at hand.”
    • “In two hours I've done 3/5th of the French campaign, and I've taken my time to explore the full research tree on the last mission.”
    • “The campaigns are the same for all characters: there’s a mission where you have to escort, one where you have to capture ships, one where you have to recruit spies, and a handful of sink-or-conquer missions.”
    • “The missions are ruined by sudden 'oh, you are about to get attacked!' giant enemy stacks spawning from nowhere right next to the place you are supposed to defend while you are across the map.”
    • “The missions are pretty boring, repetitive and the maps are bad.”

    • “This makes the core gameplay loop feel tedious and repetitive.”
    • “Trade is tedious with no automation, only mouse clicking.”
    • “The trade system is tedious.”

    The graphics are praised for modernizing the classic game's visuals, making it a strong improvement. However, some feel that enhanced graphics and UI alone aren't enough to elevate the overall experience significantly, as graphics aren't everything.

    • “Repeat the old game with better graphics = slam dunk.”
    • “If all they did was modernize the graphics and UI, and added multiplayer, it would have been head and shoulders above what this is.”
    • “Graphics isn't everything.”

    • “It completely destroys the atmosphere.”
    • “This game honestly feels like it was designed around speed instead of atmosphere, strategy, and immersion — which is exactly what made the original game special.”
  • humor
