To clarify a couple things.
First when I said “full” pirate legend, my meaning was someone that’s gone 50 in everything and 10 in Athena. I know back in the day there was talk here or there about “Pirate Legend Captains.” That’s more what I meant.
Second, I was asking if anyone knew if Rare has said anything about in general and/or has anyone got there yet?
However, and not to add to the discord, I just don’t understand the constant complaints from everyone on both sides. I’ve played since the beta and have done my fair share of grinding, but Rare making it easier for people hasn’t taken away anything I’ve done.
We “veterans” that have played since day one or the alpha or beta are always the first to tell all the new players “get good” or “play something else.” Or my favorite “it’s not a grind if you just have fun.” Or “the game is meant to be a sand box” and so on and so on.
Rare never made us grind out gold chickens or server hop for skull forts. They never made us collect those thousand banana crates or sail those millions of miles. We did it all by choice, and hopefully, for some of us, the fun of it.
But if Rare eases the grind down to make the game more fun or excisable for more people we all raise hell and act like Rare forced us to do these things we it was we our selves that said “it’s a make your own fun kinda game.”
If I hit 50 in everything and don’t have anything “special” to show for it, so what? Who cares, I did it for the fun of the game. And if I do get there, and then Rare makes it easier somehow for everyone else, that doesn’t change the fun I had playing the game.
To new players and day one players. It’s a make your own fun adventure game where literally none of the titles or cosmetics matter not one bit. Your achievement score will never matter to anyone but you. SO HAVE FUN! AND GOOD SAILING!
