* SequelDifficultySpike: ''Freedom Cry'' is a little tougher than the main game, mostly because the stakes are ''much'' higher.
** The plantation missions no longer involve robbing the owners dry, but freeing the slaves who are at the mercy of Overseers who will kill them if you are not stealthy enough. Likewise saving slave ships is harder this time since you can't fire broadsides blindly and risk the people below deck dying. So you have to open yourself to damage when attacking the escort ships of slave galleys. The combat is also hard, with more soldiers, overseers and generally darker edge.
** You can't board the escorts of slave ships, only sink them. This means you can't repair your ship during combat. Since said escorts can range all the way up to a Man of War and two Frigates, this means you're in for a pounding before you can liberate the slave ship. And you're likely to run up your wanted level while doing this, meaning that a pirate hunter can materialize during the battle to add to the overall headache.
** The Blunderbuss can indeed kill multiple enemies in a single shot if they're grouped close enough, but you can't just fire and forget like with a full set of flintlocks. The Blunderbuss also has a shorter range than the flintlocks, even the type that has maximum range. And the ultimate version of this shotgun can only be unlocked through OneHundredPercentCompletion, forcing the player to pick between spread fire and range.
