story
15 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe story in the game is described as somewhat lackluster but still enjoyable, serving primarily as a tutorial for new players. While the main narrative is complemented by numerous side quests and missions, players may find the pacing slow due to content being gated by story chapters. The game offers a variety of ship upgrades and customization options, enhancing the overall experience despite the narrative's shortcomings.
“You can get upgraded ship designs as you progress through the story and new islands.”
“This game I will probably play more than 100 hours before I come close to finishing the story.”
“You can play Pirate Code as a coffee break game by doing some bounty quests or dive into a multiple chapter story.”
“My only complaint would be that I found the story to be a bit lackluster, but still fun.”
“There is a lovely portrait showing the pirate and his daughter, but as soon as you make contact with other pirates, your crew, or key figures in the main and side missions, they all lack a portrait painting.”
“Most of the content is gated by story chapters, so expect a few hours of playing before being able to fully customize your fleet.”
