Gangplank Is So Epic Now
Before, "The Saltwater Scourge" just seemed to be the comical, stereotypical pirate. Listening to his dialogue and watching him run around (maybe a side affect of the outdated art) just made him silly. He didn't seem like much of a threat until he shoots you in the face.
But now, I'm actually intimidated by this guy. He's a straight up BADASS.
