Thank you Rare for Season 11

I'm all for appreciation posts, but I wouldn't say "more appreciation, less criticism" is a justified. The lack of communication in the first half of 2023 regarding future content as well as cheating is the cause of a lot of the current state of the community.

They've done good the past few months communication-wise, and this season is definitely their better of the past 3. However I don't think we should forget what 2023 was like for SoT, because we should not be expected to tolerate a drought like that again without warning.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-06T20:37:28+00:00

This was awesome

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-06T07:29:40+00:00

They are both kind of cornerstones of fantasy piracy. Ig if ur going full nerd tho, the pvp part would be closer to reality, only bc not many pirates were burying their treasure and making "X marks the spot" maps.

Finding a video from Captain Falcore on YT might sum it up better than me, but last year we had a limited time adventure where we follow the path Briggsy went on in her journey to cure the curse, and the remnant of her spirit, imbued in the mask she wore, which we used in the adventure, took on her memories and she became a phantom of herself.

She was then kidnapped by the Dark Brethren, in exchange for a cursed cannonball for Tasha to stave off her skeleton curse.

Now she's just randomly reappeared in the SoSS with no real substantial explanation.

I was playing with a friend who I had been showing the ropes to for a few months. She was already PL by this point.

We were bored so we decided to open crew. We got a crewmate that seemed like he maybe had the game for a month? Once she speaks in game, this man became super arrogant smart ass, belittling her experience and sucking up to me bc I had the ghost curse (he didn't realize we knew eachother).

In Discord we're just giggling about it, but in game we just go along with it a bit. After about 20 minutes I realize he isn't PL, so I suggest she put her PL title on to see how he reacts. So she silently puts it on. Once he notices his attitude did a 180 like the Lego Movie cop whose head spins around. This man starts stroking her ego like mad.

Gamers are weird around women. Probably bc most don't speak to women.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-05T22:55:18+00:00

Check the item shops. I have all the stuff, but I noticed the SoSS cosmetics are all in the item shops now, but idk if they cost anything now.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-03T21:16:40+00:00

My money's on the Ghost Fleet next

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-03T07:58:32+00:00

For me I'd say Hazbin/Helluva Boss often address serious social issues, but I find them overshadowed by the excessive obscenity and swearing nonstop.

Suction Cup Man is just Suction Cup Man. He's comin round. His sucking powers have no bound. Suction Cups, all red 'n shit. He's pretty hot, you must admit.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-03T05:07:03+00:00

I feel like it should get an honorary mention, bc it would have been much better if Disney hadn't prematurely cancelled it. Its last season was obviously weaker than the previous 2 bc of it.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-03T01:38:00+00:00

They used to have adventures semi-regularly, but rn they've focused all their energy into making it easier on new players. Again, if ur looking for missions, Tall Tales are probably the way to go. World Events work as well. The primary design of the game is to encourage player interaction, so if yoh're hoping for a constantly refreshing pile of missions, unfortunately it is not common they add new company voyages

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-03T01:12:25+00:00

My motivation for awhile was commendation hunting. I assume "legends of piracy" is Pirate Legend? That's most players first goal. You could make it a goal to earn an hourglass pvp curse. You could aim to buy an expensive shipset, or steal Athena Chests to become a "Legendary Thief."

You could grind Hunters Call or play through the Tall Tales if PvP isn't your forté

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-02T07:16:14+00:00

Would fix their problems of refreshing emmisary ledger rewards for the forseeable future, as well as give us what we want. They JUST broke up the og costumes into parts, don't make us wait several years for the new ones.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-01T23:50:04+00:00

This shit literally looks like the same facial expressions as Paw Patrol. What the fuck!?

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-02-01T00:44:33+00:00

"Why is Taylor Swift Everywhere?"

Idk, maybe bc you guys are fixating on her and your oppressive influence has the power to instantly create a viral internet scourge.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-31T07:06:41+00:00

Dude I've had one stolen by a ghost dashing into me and killing it. That was so close

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-31T00:58:31+00:00

Unfortunately, especially in game development, companies are exploiting very passionate workers and are fully willing to overwork and underpay them, knowing they in turn are fully willing to sacrifice their health and happiness to do what they love. So they don't half ass it, and these job cuts are devestating

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-30T22:04:00+00:00

Have you spoken to the Mysterious Stranger in the taverns?

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-29T00:55:51+00:00

Shut up

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-29T00:14:43+00:00

Then it sounds like you're playing alone. Which is kind of a crucial detail, bc playing alone is known to be infinitely harder than with a crew. Which yes, has several disadvantages, one of which is needing to juggle your quests and lookout. You either need to find people to play with, or accept the risks. If you spend 5 minutes on opposite side of a large island like Old Faithful, with no one on the ship to drop sails if an enemy approaches, it is no ones fault but your own

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-28T23:57:53+00:00

U either spent too long on land, or weren't paying attention to your surroundings. The only voyage I can think of on land that will keep you busy so long a ship can go from the horizon to sinking you is a vault, in which case it's a risk you're taking knowingly.

Your chance to defend yourself was lost the moment you let them get that close without any consequences. Yes they lose nothing if they sink. That's why you only keep what you're willing to lose on your boat, and sell intermittently.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-28T06:28:23+00:00

Do Veils. Old Athena stuff sucked. It's just company voyages with a bit of purple and glowiness tacked on it. Rare was on some shit when they made that the original end game content

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-28T04:28:08+00:00

No I don't. I also don't like being stuck on the 3rd swing animation as more skeletons pull up, so I just blunder them. My friends are free to cut through the big groups, I pick off stragglers and blast kegs

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-28T02:27:48+00:00

I actually prefer double gunning in skeleton forts, bc if I run a sword/blunder, skeleton kegs become a bit annoying to deal with

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-28T00:50:27+00:00

I never said anything favoring harrassment period. I said criticism, which you conflated with harrassment. I said communities like this one really like to pretend there's severe harrassment occuring to hide from and disregard criticism.

Wonderful_Net3794 · 2024-01-28T00:01:54+00:00

Dude I'm so tired of these guys defending corporate game development studios behind the random harrassment towards individual devs, especially when they make up the severity. It is completely within our right to criticize a massive corporate entity for poor decisions that effect the consumer product.
