I dont think anyone is touting it as a "deal breaker".
however the point brought up - is an interesting one.
traditionally, when a member of the crew is killed - he simply ceases to exist within the game.
it would be a nice addition for the hard core players to have at least some sort of outlet for acknowledging the deceased crewman.
be it a simple right click with a "burial at sea" option
or be it a complex, drawn out 1x time compression affair of assembling hands on deck and conducting a very small ceremony.
dead bodies - like live bodies - take up space aboard the boat.
in SH3/4 we drive for weeks on end with a "red" dead crewman in a bunk.
but what do we see if we are now given the ability to walk past that very bunk?
nothing?
there are some very deeply envolved players that will want to see something... even if it is a folded uniform and personal effects.
