Which is the better pirate-themed MMORPG?

[Goodsport]

Is Pirate's of the Burning Sea or Pirates of the Caribbean Online the better pirate-themed MMORPG? How do they compare to each other and are either/both graphically forgiving on older PC's?

I haven't played either but I think Pirates of the Burning Sea has a higher player base and also generally all movie-related games suck... So I'd stay away from the Pirates of the Caribbean one.

And I had no idea there even were pirate-themed MMORPGs.

Thanks, that's good to know. They both fortunately seem to be Free to Play now.

However, Pirates of the Burning Sea is unfortunately among the stable of MMORPG's Sony took down (hopefully only temporarily) in these recent Playstation Network and SOE hacker attacks.

Will there be a higher awareness of them with the upcoming Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides movie coming to theaters soon?

Quite possibly. I just saw the preview for that the other day.

I never heard of the POTC MMO, so I'll say Burning Sea.
