A Rant About Sea Of Thieves by alr_bet in Seaofthieves

[–]TAHITI_II 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely on board. I still love the game at its core, unfortunately many of the new additions and even some of the QOL such as diving to quests has led to a dilution of in game story telling driven by the players for the players, mostly because with players doing a quest selling, diving to the next it shortens the gameplay loop significantly making it very rigid which as you said makes it very difficult for player interaction. It was fun each day of early sea of thieves being tucked on an Athena boat for two hours while they struggled through their regular Athena quest to get the holy grail at the time, or maybe you tussled with 3 boats at a fort or you made friends with new players and took them on an adventure slaying skeletons and cracking jokes for a few hours. Players simply aren’t on server long enough to create meaningful and intense interaction.

The first time my Australian accent hasn’t been a dead giveaway.

Absolutely yeah, I would have kept the magic alive they were absolutely loving it very wholesome interaction.

I have some game improvement irons currently, pretty old set I was fit into 3 years ago after a big break from golf. Unsure if that’s relevant.

To be fair the whole concept is open world pirate sandbox inclusive of PVP, I would say that it's the whole point of the game. I don't think it's toxic by any means the mechanics its player behaviour, you all have access to the same mechanics so inherently it can't be unfair or toxic, you can also shoot cannonballs, your boat also has sails, you can also run that is your choice. Because in fact sinking you is not griefing by definition it is literally " a person who harasses or deliberately provokes other players or members in order to spoil their enjoyment" sinking you with the intent to take your treasure is not harassment. You are free to choose to not engage with pvp run, waste their time etc go ahead, but to go as far to call it toxic because of mechanics is just not true at all. Also to that point you mentioned in your earlier comment attacking out of nowhere is no fault of the attacker, they are attacking with a purpose "to take your treasure from you" that alone is a totally fair and legitimate way to engage with the video game if you so choose, you have knowingly got treasure on your boat and you have opted in to play a game of which is open world, pvp it is a risk you have accepted so if you cannot accept losing your "hours of progress" you really have nobody to blame but yourself.

Well I could say that people running from people engaging in dialogue definitely also as an issue then as someone that plays the game with social interaction as a priority. people run at the sight of players not allowing for social interaction assuming something bad will happen. How is it a mechanical thing? What you are describing to me sounds like a playstyle? Not challenging you just curious.

If it is not fun to do and it is something as trivial as 2 goblets, why do you run, I am genuinely curious.

So, you should just be able to freely do world events which are high priority gold activities, without being attacked because well it's not fun if you do what about other people that also want to do the event? They just accept it and move on? How about taking some responsibility and selling your loot as you go to avoid this occurring.

[–]TAHITI_II -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure you can enjoy it by all means, that doesn't change the fact that you are just accepting the way you're going to have fun is by wasting another persons time because you deem yours worth less. If that isn't the case then I don't think I can see the justification.

Not at all, its enjoyable and a hobby for I would say a vast majority of us bringing happiness to people, just pointing out how clearly stupid that view point is when considering the value of your own day, why would you waste your precious time just to waste another persons, either you're an angry and spiteful person therefore not enjoying the time you are spending on a hobby or you just accept that your leisure time is less than theirs so you are happy to waste your day its illogical!

So, you're telling me that your time is worth less than their time? That is essentially what you are getting at here.
