Well i love the works from PTOLEMY but i think i'm going to past the game ... In the previously version it was a least a game ( a map, some attribut, money, ... ) but now it's 100% script, in one hand our dick and in the other hand the space bar ... now it's a VN and frankly i don't like it ( 30min = read and space, read and space, read and space, ... )

It's only my opinion and nothing more, i'm going to wait middle 2019 if i'm wrong ....

Sorry for the misunderstanding but change-log say it’s V0.05 but previous version was V0.15 is that because it was changed to a VN instead?

so this was turned into a VN??? interesting.... not particularly happy about that there were tons of way he could reduce the grind with out just taking out half of the game

honestly this game feels very choppy right now it's very obvious this isnt how it was originally intended

ok the biggest fix right now that i think needs to be done is have some transitions between scenes feels very still and like it's one thing happening after another not very free flowing or like any time has passed

To get rid of grind and useless gamemechanis that dont anything than timewaste to a game is good. But I agree that the game could need some decisions to shape the story a bit more. Currently there is only a bit of that as it seem.
That grind stuff - tbh most ppl will just cheat that away with the console. So better tell a nice story and dont waste energy on systems and coding for that.

After the end of this version it jumps to (random?) spots and starts from there again ...

After playing to end I have to say that I like this new version. The strip down is a good thing. Now maybe just add more choices and (non lethal ^^) consequences :)

I find the game that use to be interesting and fun is now just a boring click click click and I just found myself spam clicking just to get through it without really reading most of what was there. Guess I clean out the folder and make space for something else instead. Pity. Off to check out Haley's story.

I think the devs are more concerned about pleasing the people paying them than pirates.

I'm one myself so not a dig but I see people complaining about their direction when i'm guessing it was to keep people paying happy.

They come before us.

Just played through this for the first time, and while there were some noticeable time-skips, the story kept me clicking on. Solid characters, some pretty obvious Sopranos influence, and a good setup for future plot progression. Since I'm no fan of the pride and accomplishment that comes with grind, I'm sort of glad I missed that. Would be nice to smooth over those parts a little more, but it works pretty well as is.

for the most part..this is vastly better now..BUT..i'd really like more clickable choices..ya know.to feel more involved...that would elevate this alot...that being said...i still enjoyed it.
