I must say I started this game with some apprehension and thinking oh no I will be fooled again by a simulator. Then I started playing....
I must say I was very surprised by the result. The depth and game play is done very well and man there is a lot of ocean out there! You can walk around the boat (the very one your sailing!) like you are on some cruise drowning your worries in tall fruity drink with umbrellas. This did get me into trouble though when I almost crashed into the Golden Gate Bridge, watch out it comes up fast.
The camera mode/settings are done very imaginative and the freedom of movement mad it feel like I was back on my cruise sight seeing.
The option screen alone was highly customizable (much more than I expected) with options for light, wind, precipitation, and many more....Wow.
This game is actually very relaxing and I must say a good one. A big thumbs up to Paradox and Vstep. Now how do I fire my US Coast Guard deck gun at that Greenpeace boat.
I'll leave you with some pics I took on my maiden voyage.
