As a day one player, I've truly enjoyed this game at various stages. Duoing with a friend when skull forts were the pinnacle of content, into tryharding a brig for the Reaper's Bones over a year later, into finally returning to a sweaty sloop PvP experience, it's been a long run. However, updates have slowed down with less and less meaningful content. Seasons that take months to produce fail to provide as much content as old monthly updates that brought game changing playstyles. The anniversary of this game might be the greatest update ever released by a live-service game, but I can't give the past years nearly as much commemoration.
