I don't think a game like Pirates! needs a multiplayer option, nor do I think it would really do that much for gameplay. Some developers are throwing in online multiplayer options now just because it's the thing everyone is doing, but some games aren't really made for it -- and that's the way it should be. Video games will be in trouble (in my opinion, at least) when developers stop thinking about single player action and focus just on multiplayer.
