Hi, I gonna try to write my opinnions on my best English. :rolleyes:

First, I wanted this game since I heard of this, because I thought playstile will be like "Pirates of The Burning Seas" but with better graphics. D'uh!
¡It's like Patrician III!

1. ¿What's the point of the game? The Campaing is like, trade 200 spices, now 2000 spices, now 20000 spices, now sink a boat, now sink a boat, capture a port and trade 30000 spices.

Kinda boring!

2. Naval battles. Come on! Empire:Total Wars have better naval battles.

2.1 We can't make naval battle faster, sometimes I have to wait so much time for engage the enemy. (I think that's not what I want to say but don't know any other word :rofl:).

Finally, I am totally agree with this post: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/showthread.php?t=413587


I am not going to buy it.

Personally, I disagree with your points, and I rather like the game, although there are definitely improvements that can be made.

1. Well, if you reduce it to that level, then every game is pretty boring! ;) ETW: Capture this city, then capture this city, then capture this city. Call of Duty: Shoot some guys, then shoot some guys, then shoot a tank, then shoot some more guys. Personally, I find the strategic game quite addicting.

2. IMO the naval battles in EIC are far superior to those in ETW. ETW feels like you're driving powerboats around; the wind barely seems to matter, and everything goes absurdly fast. EIC's ship combat should be tweaked, I believe, but overall I've had far more fun with EIC's naval combat than ETW's.

2.1. I do agree that they should be made slightly faster, but I for one prefer the slower-paced combat.
