I think the cycling through pirates we have now should be an option for sure, but we should just be able to make ourselves the pirates we want to. I really don't see anyone who appreciates the current system. I think it'd be way more fun and creative to be able to make your perfect pirate, whether you want to make it to look like yourself or like a character you have made up in your mind. It would be way more immersive and I'm big on immersing myself in games as are many sot players.

It's so weird how different opinions people have. I find pirate generator great, because there are no two identical pirates. Everyone you meet on the sea are different and it is because you can't control the generator. Pirates have scars, missing teeth, imperfections that make them unique and I love it. Then I come to the forum and read this and I'm so confused. What a weird world we live in.
Imo allowing people to create their own pirates would result of everyone looking the same, like captain Jack Sparrow or other famous character. So in fact, with the same input, we got to a completely opposite conclusions.

I know right lol. From my perspective, all those things you describe are cosmetic. It's the same generic few heads/faces on the sea of thieves but maybe one has a scar and the other had a pink afro.
