This MMORPG takes place in the 16th century of Europe (and small parts of Asia and America), lots of trading and seabattles.

--- Quote ---Voyage Century Online is an elite game against the beautiful backdrop of Europe in 16th century. The game has its roots in the glorious age of Sail, allowing players to embark on magnificent vessels that embodied the adventurous spirit of an age when men sought great adventures and epic quests.
From the 15th century, western European explorers push eastward in an effort to seek treasures, spices and other luxuries of that time. They opened a gate to riches and greed for those in power, who sponsored explorers' cause without abandonment. As the fleets stretched their paths, westerners expanded their influences to Africa. Later they cruised around Cape of Good Hope to reach Indian Ocean. In the other direction, they explored westward and found the New World. The late 15th century saw the start of the global expansion of Western capitalism and colonial exploitation of the rest of the world.
VCO storyline begins at Mediterranean from the late 15th to early 16th century. The western powers start the bloody pursuit of riches that led Europe in to an age of great turmoil. Every character in the game was from a mysterious birth. Some of them are descendants of the courageous cavalry in Yuan Empire, some carry the family line of caravan merchants faring the Silk Road, some are the witnesses of the not so well known affair between of Marco Polo and Chinese princess, and some are even the offspring of west Europe's pirates. But all players are to maintain a firm belief: the pursuit of peace and hope. Bearing the faith, they embarked on a passionate adventure on the High Seas.

The seabattle gameplay is great, nice graphics. It runs good on regular computers, so you don't need a really good gaming pc.
