Why Every PvE'er should join Reaper crews occassionally

I also thought about some pvpers do solely pve.
Both extremes cause tons of problems within the community.

I dont care for any side anymore.

Thw only players i like are the pure pirate adventures who login, immerse and take what is there to have an unpredictable adventure.

Everything else cause only problems.

@capt-soul-beard

Because some do solely this others do solely that.

Yin and Yang and everything mutually affects each other.

The problem is playermade.
It started with people hopping for PvP only and Forts.

Rare made Forts more available, yet some logged in to solely do this or that and others react to this.

If - and this is just utopian sadly - people would RP and have an adventure like it was advertised during alpha / beta by Mr. Chapman, if people would Roleplay a pirate adventure and branch out into all aspects of the game in a balanced way.
This problems wouldnt exist!

But gamers today are mostly overzealous, exagerating achievers, completionists or cyberbulls.

@capt-soul-beard

Curious why that is?
It's a generalization and all generalizations base on experience.
So the experience of 2 extreme playstyles is what cause this.

Every day a PvP complain, but also everyday a complain about pve Lords, carebears, cowards etc...

I play videogames for over 30 years and online since late 90ies.

It's the very old PvE versus PvP players.
I was a PK in UO pre Trammel, but a roleplayer not a mindless murder hobo!

One thing i have understood over the years.
The pve player doesnt harm anyone. He's often a sour loser yes, also not acceptable, but - and there is evidence in this thread alone across the board (i mixed this up with another active thread, sorry) - this is caused by the emapthless, git gud stance from many (not all) pvpers who then make jokes about the pve players and are derogative and contemptuous all the time.
Just read this thread, i have blocked most of them, so i cant quote.
Noob is derogative for New player
They get called cowards, pve Lords, sour losers, cannot play the game etc.
It's the elitism of thst PvP group that has made up for this.
It's the Adapt or Die aproach and to laugh about them, spawnkilling them to make them ragequit.

Today people stream this and laugh about others, they record it and let others look like fools.
All laugh, hahaha, see this cowards, see this noobs, hahaha see this inability.
And people say it's Business as usual, nothing toxic about this.
Well i will go out and brawl some others and then i laugh about them what bad irl fighter they are.
Everybody would say i'm a toxic, brutal person, no?
Hey they got out, expect to be contested, life is dangerous.
But in videogames it's ok to make fun of others and show someone off?

That is what people dont get.
And Rare or MS know this, but they want money from everybody.
Therefore all the pure PvE games got PvP modes.
And today there is absolutely no pure PvE online game except some Coop games maybe.
Everything has pve and pvp.
And still some Studios try to bring both groups together.

It worked until they did Arena and the game wasnt popular, but niche.
With Streamers and Arena and popularity also the popularity to use DG, tuck, make fun about noobs, it went worse and worse.
And it will become more worse.
The Rocco Pace thing was just the start of it.
It will divide further and it will become more ugly.
And all this because of people gaming the system instead of playing the gsme regularly and having a fun comical pirate adventure roleplay.

i think its rare fault ,cause the game isnt balanced im not fast enough with 36 playing solo against 4 youngsters...i just play pvp when i play online games i never played a videogame where its so frustrating to lose like in sot....super enjoyable losing the loot after 2 hours ye i could sell constantly but its not fun....sot was so chill when it came out youcould decide i go to a fort having some fast paced pvp event or just doin voyages,no its tuckers seas is it fun for u seeing a reapers on the other end of the map,sail to him 20minutes(with no raised reapers flag).

@ntraills i agree,

@Xultanis-Dragon who i not always agree with, but who i respect a lot answered it and made examples.
And this is the same thing i also experienced over the years playing sandbox pvp games.
You cannot make a pve focussed player have fun sitting in thw crows nest watching horizon for 20 minutes.
We have exactly that person in our crew sometimes, not realy, but of you put him there to watch the Horizon he fell asleep and we get caught in the act.
Happened, all laughed and we already have a ton of jokes about him. The best one is: he's in our crows nest then he said i have the keg i will blow them up and he blowed US up 😀.
He's legendary and allways good for some laughter. And sometimes he Mannes it to kill 4 people alone while on xbox and Controller fighting another crew that wasnt that bad.
Ok anyway...
What i also said is.
Try to make some pure pvpers have fun doing pve only and do an alliance, not betray, but friendly and maybe even gift other people the loot you have done pve for.

The games community has a problem.
It's majority is extreme in this or that way and not playing for a roleplay pirate adventure with all aspects nothing focussed on.
We have to much gamers who tweak their experiences by serverhopping want to do only this or that and arent ready and open to do this and that when it happens.
