Anyone play Sea Dogs?

Unread postby PhoenixReborn » 21 Aug 2007, 15:17

I'm cross posting from heroes community since it's not as busy there as here and I haven't got any response:

So I came across this game Sea Dogs when I was browsing some online game stores.

I remember back just before it was released it was a game I had my eye on but then I forgot about it.

Seeing it, I remembered I had been interested, and looking up reviews it looks pretty good.

But none of the online stores have the game in stock and on Amazon it's pretty pricey...$30 USD more than Planescape...

So anyone played it? Is it a bug fest?

I enjoyed Sea Dogs a lot, it is a worthy successor to Sid Meier's Pirates. Gameplay-wise, it is very similar.

The naval part of Sea Dogs was really cool, with impressive battles at sea between many ships, but the part at land was a bit awkward. But its biggest flaw was its difficulty, I think... The game soon became very tough, and winning a battle was quite a challenge.

Good info. Just curious if you've played the modern remake of Pirates, what do you think of it?

I played it, and liked it, but it felt... old and lacked the magic of the original, IMO.
