The game was fun, but not right away. It took a while to get into the pirate mood, which was well done by the developers. The start was slow, the difficulty was high, and I died a lot. Then I got to Takarigua and started farming. I became a thief and a charmer, and I liked it. I looted everything, and betrayed everyone. I was a nasty rat. I couldn’t level up all the skills, because I had to choose a side. The only task I failed was hitting flying coconuts. The game had a good story, nice graphics, realistic weather, beautiful sunsets, and a lively world. I loved the pirate adventure. The flaws were minor: bad combat, no swimming, and game over after the Temple of Water. The achievements were bugged too. But it was still a great game. 8/10 monkeys.

Finally completed after years of not giving a chance (took me 20 hrs), find few bugs but this is best of this series and call me mad but I choose this over assassin's creed black flag anyday. Overall is strong 7/10 I reccomend ELEX 1 from this developer just dont go with ELEX II it's a total mess it shouldn't even be realesed.

This game looks beautiful for its age, it looks a bit like The Witcher 3 at my perspective, cannot wait to play! Good on the developers who worked their butts off to create a master piece that it is :D
