Gents! I come before you and the Rare dev team that will listen for another proposal. Nothing major and nothing likely to get implemented but an idea I would like to float out there.
When a pirate dies out in the world and his body evaporates in a plume of green spirit smoke, he travels to the Ferry of the Damned to become another member of its crew for a short while. Eventually as the Ferryman opens the doorway back to the living, you step through, and just reappear on your boat.
I have heard of fellow pirates getting struck down immediately upon entering back into the living world. This is not only why I bring up the idea though, maybe also for more immersion. I suggest that upon entering back into the world we stay in ghostly form for up to 10 or 15 seconds...slowly transforming back into our living body from ghostly apparition. This can be a more immersive experience from coming back from the dead and give a pirate time enough to position his self, if need be, when in a scrap that sent him to the Ferryman in the first place.
Edit: Indeed! No interaction with the world while in ghostly form. Not so much as droppin the anchor or grabbin a cannonball.
What say you to that? Let me know! Down below!
