Pirates of the Burning Sea is an MMORPG set in the golden age of piracy, a sort of EVE Online for the sails and sabers crowd. Although small in the lopsided MMORPG market, it’s been chugging along for close to two years now, slowly growing.

The latest expansion for Pirates of the Burning Sea will be Power and Prestige, a huge addition to the game in that it brings in player control and governance of faction ports. In other words, player-run cities that aren’t lame shanty-towns out in the middle of nowhere.
