The problems they had to fix with the patches were enough to make me never want to buy a game again that hasn’t been out for a few months. I was one of the pre-order players. Never Again.

I agree with what has been said above… the game has an unfinished feel to it. Like they had some ambitious ideas but then didn’t get to fully implement them. To me the sea missions were great fun. The whole “Encyclopedia of the Common Man” mission was just a big stinking pile of pain-in-the-ass. At least the patch allowed you to finish it after the game was over. The whole trading system could have been improved as well.
