While GPOVI is enjoyable, it has some serious problems in telling a story. TOMI had some, but compared to Ghosts, it was as clear as crystal.
Character wise, the minor characters in TOMI had more of a personality, while in GOPVI quite a few of the secondary ones are just defined by their roles, nothing beyond the, well, let's say, character type tag.
Well, I like Starling as much as Morgan, and I love the art style in Ghost Pirates, but it was a bit washed out and artificial compared to Curse and even A Vampyre Story to me, so I go with Tales. Because it has everything else. Great effort though, Bill! Keep it up!
Tales is clearly head on shoulders above Ghost Pirates in terms of storyrelling, voice acting, puzzles, controls and technical aspects as well as graphics design.
Playing Ghost Pirates makes me appreciate Tales even more.
I'll vote when I've played my copy of ghost pirates.
It should arrive next week sometime.
I don't expect it to be better than tomi but I expect it to be an enjoyable game nevertheless.

And the humour was nicer.
Humor, plot, dialogs, animation, atmosphere, puzzles, music, and voice acting in Tales is better!
Only the backgrounds in Ghost pirates were better than Tales.
Fair call. Maybe we should post the same poll on the Autumn Moon forums and then we can get the aggregate results.
Um... so does Tales.
