* MissKitty: Bridgetown's Maria.
* ObviousBeta: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pI_SvrECKIk Oh]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Er1qEPAA7ok my]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmG_0bU1I5M dear]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lofR-R_rFJ0 God]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjeliI79Zek yes]]! To summarize everything wrong with this game: collision errors, voiced dialogue that doesn't play, and texture faults are common. Add to that odd or incorrect NPC placement[[note]]people right at the edge of scaffolding ripe to be pushed off, and that woman urinating into the bush probably isn't meant to be[[/note]], poor NPC behavior[[note]]the guy who keeps "waking up" when a gun is pointed at him only to lie back down right afterwards, and the death scene that ''isn't animated at all''[[/note]], and some plain weird dialogue[[note]]such as the guy who keeps saying "Be brave" followed by some random expletive; something that was actually patched out of the game shortly after the video that made reference to it[[/note]] and you have one unfinished and buggy game--albeit quite a humorous end product. By the 1.10 patch, the outstanding problems have been cleaned up, but it still lacks polish.

* GreaterScopeVillain: The Patriarchs, a SerialNumbersFiledOff 17th century CaptainErsatz of [[Franchise/MetalGear the Patriots]]. They seemingly are behind much of the world's chaos and hold numerous positions of influence. Kensington was apparently a member, and Avery wanted to join, but they have no direct involvement with Neville or the Devil's Tines so are not confronted or addressed by the end of the game.

** FragileSpeedster: Schooners are the fastest ships in the game, but also the smallest, with the least firepower and durability. This will be your first ship after losing your original ship in the tutorial.
** MightyGlacier: Galleons and War Galleons are large ships with thick hulls and plenty of room for cannons and cargo, but are also the slowest ships in the game. They're good in firefights, but have trouble catching up with fleeing enemy ships to board them.
** TheMario: The Frigate falls between the speed of the Schooners and the power of the Galleons, leaning more towards speed. The drawback is that it doesn't carry as much cargo as the Galleons, which can be a problem for prospective high seas traders.
** LightningBruiser: The Man-O-War is the highest ranked ship in the game (other than the unique ships Santorio's Ship-Of-The-Line and Neville's Warship), and is both extremely fast and extremely powerful. It also costs a small fortune to acquire one for yourself.

* VideoGameCrueltyPotential: Similar to most Bethesda games, plot-critical [=NPCs=] are unkillable, but you're free to murder pretty much everyone else in the game. Murdering random people doesn't even aggro an entire town, just any government soldiers that witness the crime, and the occasional overzealous bystander. This actually leads to a bug that makes the game UnwinnableByMistake, as some plot-critical [=NPCs=] are ''not'' unkillable and it's possible to accidentally kill them ''long'' before you realize they're plot critical [=NPCs=] and not just random civilians (as they're not marked as important until several missions later).

* EarlyGameHell: At the start of the game you lack any crowd control abilities, making fights against multiple enemies potentially quite tough and frustrating. Once you acquire 3 strong pistols and the hook attack ability, though, you're usually able to instantly kill 4 enemies at the start of the fight, which is generally enough to reduce any gang to a manageable number.

* ShoutOut: The final privateer mission for the British commander in Sainte Rose involves defeating a pirate fleet led by a "Captain Mack Sparrow" who captains a war galleon called the "Red Ruby", an obvious reference to the ''Franchise/PiratesOfTheCarribbean'' movies. This also happens to be one of the toughest naval fights in the game.

* ContractualBossImmunity: The game's few bosses can dodge your kick attack and special instant-kill move, even though they're otherwise identical to regular enemies and (other than the final boss) aren't even that much tougher or more durable. They're still vulnerable to the hook attack, which deals massive damage when fully upgraded.

* DamageSpongeBoss: Neville has about 100,000 hit points in a game where enemies typically have a few thousand hit points. Even with the best weapons in the game it takes quite a lot of hits to kill him, and to top it off he heals a big portion of his health about halfway through the fight.

** 7-foot tall brutes armed with giant hammers are a rare enemy type that appears occasionally in the latter parts of the game. They have about twice as much health as regular mooks, can't be parried, and will knock you flat on your ass if they hit you.
** Avery's bodyguard and [[TheDragon Dragon]] Ray also counts, he's a big brute a good head taller than everyone else who's also known as Baby Ray the Butcher of Orun for his brutality during his time as a slave overseer. At 25,000 hit points he's the second toughest enemy in the game next to Neville himself.

* PirateParrot: Well, it's a raven, but it serves much the same purpose.
