Actually, they’re calling it a ‘Vision Statement.’ But the end result is the same: a clear definition of what sort of game experience the Flying Lab Software developers intend to create with Pirates of the Burning Sea.

¶ As mentioned before, I like forums. Can’t get enough of ‘em. In the last few months, there have been a lot of crappy whine threads about various non-issues and perceived non-issues.
