Also, the forums keep me interested in the game. We have very passionate people on the boards and constantly talking about the game keeps me interested. Since I learn something new everyday I am on here. (which is everyday lol)
I think Pirates is more of a community rather than a game now and as long as we remain that way Disney will keep putting money and time into the game for our enjoyment IMO.

Well said Scottish...I echo every word you wrote...
And yes, at times the game can become boring or monotonous...but even so this game I play more then any other in my collection...I come from playing mostly FPS games with a few RTS, RPG's and Adventures thrown in for kicks...one Action/Arcade game that I was really into because it was on an RPG server was Freelancer....but when MS failed to make a sequel and EVE came out, I refused to go there just as I did with WoW(after loving the Warcraft series) because I was in the mindset of "I don't pay to play"...
Yet here I am...I also belong to a huge gaming organization which has been around since 2001 and now has over 600+ members...but when I look at the various Divisions in TAW I see a change in the wind...what used to be mostly FPS and other military games has grown from one MMO Division(WoW) into several now...
I think it's the allure of the bigger worlds...but even moreso it's due to friendships made and working on quests together...
Also remember that the game is still in it's infancy...FPS games are easier to make because it's just "ok, here is the story, the levels and the multiplayer maps" while MMO's continually expand...the developers learn what works and what doesn't thanks to all of us who participate and give feedback...granted the graphics need tweaking, and more content would be nice...but these things take time...I've been on that side of the fence doing total conversion mods...it's not easy, it's time consuming...
But in the end the results are worth it for those with patience... :treas1:
