The game it self didn't look all that impressive to me from what I had seen, but a mediocre pirate game is better than no pirate game!
Anyway, I just ran across this bit of good news from a couple of weeks ago, it seems Nitro Games has got a pretty good infusion of cash recently, this is good news because Nitro is currently working on a new pirate game called Ravens Cry! Hopefully that means that Ravens Cry will indeed get finished! I haven't been able to find out a whole lot about this one yet, but from what I can gather, it will probably be similar to East India Company and Commander : Conquest of the Americas. This news is a couple of weeks old, but better late than never!
