I've heard many theories about SoT not being for solo players, so many that this pirate ballad came to me in a dream. I present:
The Ballad of the Solo Slooper
Behold the solo slooper,
A real party pooper!
Of a social life he has no hope,
Because he’s a f****n’ misanthrope, yo HOOOO
The solo slooper!
He’s not opposed to servin’ on a crew,
He just doesn’t want to be on one with YOU! Oh, SAAAYYY…
You solo sloopers!
Runnin’ back and forth ‘twixt wheel and gun
How in God’s name is that any fun?
But you’re a solo slooper
And you say you’re a trooper
Sailin’ the sea without any help
Not like a snivelin’ galleon whelp! Oh PRAAAAISE
The solo slooper!
A powder barrel is his best friend
Your dreams of raiding for to end, oh HOOOOOO
Now, solo slooper!
The mast is one, the rigging simple
And no one sees if you pop a pimple, OHHHHHH
That solo slooper!
He’ll swim buck naked through the Devil’s Roar
Before he’ll join a gang of four hi-HOOOOOOO
All solo sloopers
He’s sailed alone from a distant port
Only to die at a skeleton fort, oh MYYYYYYY
That solo slooper!
One thing is true of his solitary call
It’s better than not playing Sea of Thieves at all! Oh, BEEEEE
A solo slooper!
Give it a try, just once in a while
A solo voyage will make you smile, oh YESSSSSSS
A solo slooper
Shows brigs and galleons he’s the best
By making them chase him for a castaways’ chest!
If you’re a solo slooper
I think that’s just super
Maybe I’ll pass ye on a westward tack
If ye don’t shoot at me, I won’t shoot back! ‘Cause YOOOOU’RE
A solo slooper!
