Video Game Reviews of Pirate Hunter
Customer Review: massive time waster
Summary: 1 Stars
this worthless and pointless pile of junk is nothing but a time dump. It begins well enough with opportunity to capture ships etc., but as the game progresses, several problems arise. The most annoying aspect is that however many ships you have in your fleet, you can only use 1 in battle, and you consistently run into pirates or buccaneers with 3 ships and more men. It is a physical impossibility to win these encounters. Your crew morale sinks constantly and no amount of sea battles will change this, the only thing you can do is dump your crew and start with 1 ship. An ability to keep the crew happy by distributing parts of the profits would have been prefferable. Annexing towns is a joke as your ship is constantly fighting headwinds and getting slammed and for some reason, in both sea and land battles your crew takes a ridicoulously long time to reloads while the enemy simply hammers away at you. Several of these problems arise during the game and usually within 2 years of game play time. This game is poorly programmed, historicqally inaccurate and game play is extremely bad. If I could give this pile of dung 0 or negative stars I would.
