Fair use rationale for Image:Piratesgba.jpg

Image:Piratesgba.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Must address the game’s many bugs in this article

This was a incredible game for Xbox players who, at the time, really didn’t have access to games like this on consoles. It was an “open seas” RPG with in-depth skill systems, a massive overworld economy, and a lot of customization options.

But the Xbox port was hampered by a litany of game breaking bugs: Quests breaking (for various reasons), impeding progress; frequent crashing; and the worst bug of all, frequent save corruption.

Most of the bugs could be mitigated by making multiple, tiered saves as one played through the game. But the save corruption issue was catastrophic; often unavoidable and random, it could and would corrupt all of your saves, no matter what precautions you took (including deleting old saves and creating new saves on fresh files instead of overwriting).

Thus, even though I found this to be an incredible game, and certainly unique in the console landscape when it launched on Xbox back in 2003, the amount and variety of games is rendered it broken and unplayable. 2601:247:4001:8900:89D7:EFC9:4EE3:983D (talk) 18:42, 24 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
