The original game had a fun story, good game play and nice voice acting. This thing is an abortion.
However, the expansion pack: Pirates of the Flying Fortress is an absolute let down.
First of all, they changed the voice of the lead. This is rough, as you played 20 - 40 hours with that voice as your character, but ok... maybe the actor died or something. But the guy they replaced him with sounds like a sniveling twerp... makes him completely irritating to listen to... I don't want to play a game where even *I* hate the character I am playing.
And what happened to my character????
When the last game ended, I was freaking brother to the Emperor! I was a god amongst amongst the Guilds... I was (basically) a celebrity kick-ass.
Start up this game, and I am a groveling d-bag to ... wait for it... Pirates!? The strongest mage in the entire universe gets to:
Find a chest some drunk lost
Gather food for some magical whack-jobs.
Kill some bears
Blah, blah, blah...
Boring.
Disappointing.
Save your money...
