Age of Sail (In space!) is an apt description since Weber directly paid homage to the Horatio Hornblower books he modeled the initial books off of by giving his main character the same initials.
Make sure to go watch the Sword of Truth series so that your disappointment can continue.
Pullo was the best character ever.
If memory serves, it was written as a miniseries, not a show that would span multiple seasons. Then the network saw how popular it was and demanded multiple seasons. But the writers had already written all the source material they had expected to.
It's an open world RPG with a main quest. Games like Dragon Age: Origins or Baldur's Gate and whatnot are probably more similar. GoG has it for $7 configured in a DosBox.

So say we all
Darklands (Video game)
It came out in 1992. Set in the 15th century Holy Roman Empire / Germany. It's a 4-character party isometric game that featuring real time combat, party members who aged and would die from old age, perma death, and fantastical elements based on historic folklore, Catholic saints, and alchemy.
Shit, close to 10 years after we stopped playing, my wife was playing WOW and someone was all, "Icarii... from Corbantis? I bought so many weapons off you, yours were the best!"
That's the price of 1 annual pass. So if you have a spouse and 3 kids, that leaves you a fair bit in the hole.
I'll just leave this one for you :)
