If you want realism, then you'll want to know about framerate. The pirate looks could be extremely detailed, but because the target audience probably doesn't have operating systems that can run for something as complicated as the characters you'll see in the developer videos on the POTCO site, they have to keep the graphics low.

I've seen the library of faces in the videos, and they're pretty detailed, with freckles, etc..., only in the video it's not the best example because it's a big, funny looking guy.

And what we really need is more ship sinking cutscenes, and a different cutscence will play depending on where the amount of damage was most on the ship. If you got hit in the middle the most, your ship will fall in on itself, and masts will break and fall of to the sides.

And don't forget about what they did to the SvS rocks. When you hit cannons with them, now, bolders don't fall off of the rocks, they just go through them. This upset me A LOT, because when the rest of the crew was repairing, and there wasn't a spot for me, I could shoot at rocks and see a bunch of stuff just fall off of it. What happened to that?

I agree with all of your ideas, for the most part, but it will take time for them to accomplish all of these things.
