Hahahahahah i'm running off 4 hours of sleep i'm taking everything too literally .-.

I agree though, I played a lot of Sid Meier's Pirates and I think it would've been cool to have to worry about things like food and morale, have a few more goods to trade and perhaps even capturing different ship types to pilot. I really liked the mission where you took the wheel on Blackbeard's ship, it was too short :p
