None of you will "get" Puzzle Pirates because you'll have to have played it as a kid. I've thought about a pirate immersive sim for a while. You make the islands a realistic distance but closeish because it's a videogame. Regardless of if it's a sort of mmo or singleplayer, you balance the game around having SOMETHING to do in the downtime on your ship. Make it minigames just like Puzzle Pirate. If you do the minigame it speeds up/improves the part of the ship it's touching like bilging or trimming the sales. Put a poker table on the ship and have it connect to an online game.
