Overall, I really like this update.

I love the skill point re-allocation, the ship boarding options, the better display of Captain's Orders, the bosses, and having new quests.

Initially, I was dismayed at the changes to Hex Eater & dagger skills. However, after playing the updated versions and comparing them to my previous style of play, I've realized that I enjoy the new version more than the old. I'd gotten bored with gun & dagger, and hadn't really realized it; the update has made these weapons a bit challenging again, and I really appreciate that.

I don't love some of the new bugs that came along for the ride, such as sprinting Navy guys & skeletons - it's tough to kill 5 Grenadiers when they won't stop running! Unlike some of you, I haven't had any show-stopping issues or crashes with this release, and I'm optimistic that minor updates along the way will smooth things out quickly...

I give this update 8 out of 10, but I'm still hoping to see a new quest chapter before my game subscription lapses...
