It’s time for everyone to once again pretend that saying “arr” after every sentence makes you sound like a nautical criminal, and internet culture being what it is, you probably aren’t surprised that games are getting in on Talk Like A Pirate Day celebration. Conan Exiles doesn’t have an event running, but it did encourage players to talk like a pirate just the same, so we’re going to count that as being cut from the same cloth. Same for The Elder Scrolls Online, while we’re at it.
On the other hand, if there was ever an expansion for World of Warcraft’s Pirate’s Day, this would be it. And yes, it’s a chance to join yet another crew of pirates for a lot of drinking and partying (rather than theft and murder). The Crystal Cove event has also returned to Dungeons & Dragons Online, offering up a pirate-themed adventure for the day.
Have you seen other piratical events spreading through the online game space? Give us a heads-up down in the comments!
