I like pirates. It's one of the better JJP games. Much better than WOZ or Hobbit (for whatever that's worth). Layout is great. Looks are great. Just too much going on, that makes it seem overly complex. You want depth in a game, but you also what clear cut goals that are fun to achieve, while you are working along your ultimate journey for the final ending. This is where a game like LOTR really shines. Clear cut objectives that are fun, but deep and complex enough for the long haul. It's a fine line to walk, before there are too many things going on, everything is lit, and the player loses interest because of too much. But if I was going to buy a JJP game, it would be pirates or dialed in.
