There didn't seem to be much to the game aside from whatever fun you made from it, and even that leads nowhere if you don't have content to actually work towards.

Rare ruined themselves. MS gave them too much freedom.

I mean, Star Fox Adventures wasn't that hot and most of the relevant people at Rare left by then.

Also, maybe it's my inherent bias against online multiplayer games but the game didn't look interesting back when it was announced.

It really depends. Joined a game this morning with a group of little kids. I basically had to pilot the galleon myself over to a skeleton bounty mission, and when I found the skeletons, half of my crew were on the ship trying to leave and the other was wandering around the island asking if he can be the captain.

So I left and ended up joining a crew of some pretty chill dudes. I asked them to head for the skull fort in the distance. The guy controlling the ship gave out instructions for us to move the sails and piloted the ship perfectly. We fought off the skeleton hordes and cashed in the forts loot and called it a night. I added them all on friends to hopefully play more in the future.

I was going to buy it because I love pirated themed adventure type games.

That said when I heard it's really only MP and SP isn't very possible in that game it became a hard PASS

It's a shame that it's doing so bad. I was really interested in the premise, but like most game that entirely depend on the online community it will eventually suck (or suck right after release).

I heard it's just really repetitive and there really isn't much to do. :(

The previews were all universally positive, so something seems amiss

EDIT: Then again, the same was true for Sim City and we all know how that turned out

If by 5 hours you mean 15-30 hours alongside really addictive multiplayer...

Ignoring the fact that they're also completely different genres.
