Ahoy there!
Many moons ago, we had a thread where community members could do a short quiz and find out their 'Gamer Psychology'. The Bartle test. You can read more about it here - along with it's limitations and discussions.
We're seeing a lot of posts on the forums at the moment where pirates are hotly debating whether Sea of Thieves is 'good' or not, whether it provides a balanced experience for different playstyles, whether it's worth the pricetag or even if players are enjoying it or not.
Whether you're having fun in game currently or looking for more specific type of content, or that Battle Royale mode, might be down to your gamer type - the things you naturally enjoy doing in games.
Sea of Thieves is a Shared World Adventure Game, it contains elements of both PvE and PvP and is also trying to balance the two.
You can take the test in a couple of places, if you'd like to, it's a bit of fun but also a well regarded assessment of player types.
Mine currently comes out as EASK
93% Explorer
47% Achiever
40% Socialiser
20% Killer
♠ Explorers delight in having the game expose its internal machinations to them. They try progressively esoteric actions in wild, out-of-the-way places, looking for interesting features (ie. bugs) and figuring out how things work. Scoring points may be necessary to enter some next phase of exploration, but it's tedious, and anyone with half a brain can do it. Killing is quicker, and might be a constructive exercise in its own right, but it causes too much hassle in the long run if the deceased return to seek retribution. Socialising can be informative as a source of new ideas to try out, but most of what people say is irrelevant or old hat. The real fun comes only from discovery, and making the most complete set of maps in existence.
