Petition:Release the Kraken

[James Bladefury]

Its that time of the year again... I think I'll give the exact response to a near identical thread in a few months.

So what's the deal with Davy Jones and the Kraken? Do you have plans to add them to the game? Any hints on when that might happen?

Yes, we are definitely planning on adding Davy Jones and the Kraken to the game, and along with them will be all new Quests. Stay tuned for more details!

Those developer diaries have been up since 2007 when the game launched and it's been four years.

I can understand why the Kraken would take so long but they promised him by the end of 2009 and he never came. They never should have made the promise in the first place if they couldn't release him.

Last time we saw the Kraken, his model was completely done. I think the developers forgot to mention that the Kraken itself would most likely be a boss battle to a second story quest. If we're going to have a second story quest, we're going to need a few new islands(along with new enemies), new ship enemies, and more unique gameplay aspects. While the Kraken could be done, the second story quest could probably take even longer.

I'm not worried about how long it takes to release the Kraken, as long as he does eventually come out.
