What about owners of the original version, do we have to pay for this?

Diablo 2 events were much better.

HR had a much better art direction and story, not to mention better longevity.

And yet they still haven't fixed the issues this game has on PC.

It's just more mindless EA bashing from the haters. EA gets blamed for things while other companies get a free pass to do the same problematic things. Also Bethesda clearly has potential for being the worst now that they are charging people for mods while also giving very little of the profits to the mod makers. They kept on dumbing down their games and are milking Skyrim for years on end, also they bought the Prey IP while the sequel was in development then canceled it and made a completely unrelated game under the same name, it wasn't even a reboot.

I still have my retail box copy, but I guess I will get the shaft here and will have to re-buy it just to get the update.

@peteyg89: It would be a disappointment if they don't do a PC version.

I'd rather have a proper standalone pirates game than an Assassin game with a pirates skin again.

Ages of Pirates 2: City of Abandoned Ships is probably the best pirates sim in existence and the developer really needs to revive the series with a third game.

As long as STD isn't on the list.
