CottonWolf Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 If you liked the first one, you'll probably be okay. It looks like it's improving on most aspects. (Unless you really hate ships.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheisEjsing Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) Title says it all. It will be in the deadfire region of Eora. I don't think it's pirate themed. It's a high fantasy rpg where the enemy is a 200 meter tall god, it's not captain hook. According to all released material, there will be pirates as one of the games factions and will probably play a pretty significant role. I believe you will like the game if you like the IE style games, even if pirates is not your thing.

smjjames Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 You won't be forced to play as a pirate if that's what you're thinking. Pirates are definetly present and there is a maritine theme with the trading company and pirates, but the game isn't going to be wholly focused on the pirates or anything like that.

draego Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 (edited) Ye i am confident with Josh and team this is not going to make Pillars: Pirates of the Caribbean. Josh seems to like to inject historical settings and so you will see more realistic depictions of factions like mentioned above with various 'Trading' companies where said trading company has veneer of legitimacy from home country but can be nasty and engage in piracy and seems like there will be actual pirates that happen to be there but not the focus of the story like said one note movies.

firkraag888 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Yes you will have to play as the captain of your pirate ship. The game will mainly consist of yourself and your band of pirates sailing around the oceans ripping off other boats, hiding from the law on your secret island hideaway, firing cannons, walking around on prosthetic legs, drinking rum and talking to parrots that sit on your shoulder. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wormerine Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 It seems to draw some inspiration from "swashbuckling adventure" but I doubt it will depart too far from what PoE1 was. I still expect a sober and serious adventure tough a little but of fun wouldn't hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
injurai Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 From my understanding sailing and sailing culture is simply integrated into the setting. It doesn't set out to particular explore pirate-hood as it's main thrust. I wonder how much you can play up pirate-hood though through your actions and decisions, that will be the real question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leferd Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Oh, Sid Meier can we get Pirates! 2? I player both the original and the remake to death already. Technically, there were two remakes. But I'd definitely go for another one.

smjjames Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 The label of pirate also depends on which end of the cannon you're on anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjshae Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 As long as they avoid portraying the stereotypical pirates of the Caribbean trope, then I think it'll be okay. I suspect it's going to be more like Malay pirates. 1 "It has just been discovered that research causes cancer in rats." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
injurai Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 How about both? Caribbean pirates could be turned down a notch trope-wise, like the west-country accent (as much as I love it.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karkarov Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Lol okay stahp guys.This is not a pirate game. Will it have pirates? Yes. Will you get the option to side with them? Yes. Can you sort of behave like a pirate? Yes. Can you also join forces with any number of other factions who are not pirates, don't act like pirates, and may or may not even have a ton of interaction with the pirates? Also yes.That said there is one major city (not run by pirates), but there is one significant town called Dunnage.... and well..... yeah dirty pirates....So while it isn't a pirate game, they will be there, though I doubt they will be central to the main plot. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumpymoose Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) Yarr a parrot Harry! Now, the question is, will we get a pirate to sit on our shoulder? Yes, yes I know it's not actually a parrot game, don't get your powder kegs in a jumble. Avast ye swabs, the question of pirate themes tickles me fancy for a Pirates of Dark Water RPG.

lautasantenni Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 I hope it involves Cthulhu and deep ones (since we are at the sea and stuff), and metaphysical god -stuff again, that PoE endgame content game me shivers. :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
