Will removal of linked acct's effect you/your family game play?

Wouldn't a simple fix for Disney be to leave the linked accounts gone but charge an extra $5 a month for a multiple log in family account. Big D wins and gets extra revenue and familys can play together without having to pay for multiple accounts.

Even an extra $5 is ridiculous when we've had it for free for this long. There's no way I will (or can afford to) pay ANYTHING for another account. Anything less than how it previously was is unacceptable IMO.

I think if it were a better game (i.e. they added more content) and they warned us first, this would work.

But forcing us without warning to pay for a second account when many of us are debating even keeping the first one because we have nothing to do was a bad move on their part.

Just my 2 cents: Everything they have added so far has been geared towards making the game better for new players. New towns, enemies, etc will make the original quests take longer to complete. A new player who signs up today will take longer to finish, and will enjoy the game, far more than we did. And they'll never miss the linked accounts because they never had them. They may even pay for a second account.

I really think this is their aim, to get more new accounts, and if they lose a few older ones, its collateral damage.

One comment there.

They have made the game EASIER for the new player. The Pearl quest, the first 3 crew members has gotten easier to finish. John Smith is easier, too. The guiding light, the hints, the better compass, have all made the game easier for the new pirate. The new tutorials, also.

The truth is, they have made it much easier to level and finish the quests than it was a year or more ago.

What they have really done is to bring the game to a level where even younger players can make it through without difficulty.
