I'll remain polite, but I wonder who the ‘pretentious kid’ is in this story.
- You're asking me if NPCs yell when they're robbed? That's the only answer you can give me? Well, that shows your level... What I said here is a fact.
I've given more than enough answers in this thread alone, along with tens of other players. What you said here is not a fact, but an emotionally driven rant.
That shows your level 🥱
- The fact is stated by me in the comment and by hundreds of other opinions all over the internet. Obviously you don't like it, but you don't have the absolute truth, so you'll have to accept that others don't share your opinion. And yes, there are fewer players, just look at the Steam stats (the only reliable source, but it gives an idea).
Again, that's not a fact. It's a number of people with inflated ego labeling everyone who sinks them as toxic, while they're being toxic themselves for getting sunk in a cartoon pirate game.
It's sad - and that's an actual fact 😂
- Toxicity on SoT is very real. I have over 10,000 hours on this game, so I know what I'm talking about. What's more, yes, there is toxicity even among PvE players, but the vast majority comes from PvP players who denigrate and insult others (as you just did, by the way).
"Trust me, I'm an expert". Your 10k hours doesn't warrant any truth. It just means you spent 10k hours.
Same as a person who also does PvP in sandbox, for 10k hours, and ran into countless toxic PvE fanatics
You proved nothing.
- Sea of Thieves was NEVER designed to be competitive, and you see, you're talking without even knowing the nature of the game. PvP in Sea of Thieves is mainly there to create a sense of gentle paranoia (a term used by the developers), but it was never intended to be competitive.
I better understand the nature of the game than you are, obviously. Only 1 of us here is crying about an aspect of this game.
I never complained about PvE content, or people running away if I approach them. Cuz that's all part of the sandbox. They have rights to run away or not engage/scuttle.
I also never mentioned competitiveness in my messages to you. You're arguing with a wall, because I never brought it up. I brought up the term "contest", which is something different.
And newsflash, game was DESIGNED to be like that. Events are DESIGNED to trigger player encounters, and to be contested. Which directly relates to PvP.
So tell me again, which one of us doesn't know what they're talking about, and doesn't understand the nature of this game? 😭 Take your time, it will come to you hopefully.
- Yes, the subject is very much present, as you demonstrate in your message. Whether you like it or not, there has never been an official way to play SoT, given that, once again, it is an adventure game where each player can feel like a pirate, visit a vast world, go on adventures, accumulate riches, engage in PvP, cause trouble, sin, or just sail around.
And, again? What are you trying to prove with this? In what context lol? Make it make sense. Nobody argued that
- And finally, you talk about pretentious kids (which makes you wonder who the pretentious one is in this story), because we're only talking about cosmetics here. At some point, you have to calm down for five minutes.
Yea, cosmetics as rewards for playing the game as it is, with all the risk involved.
There's nothing more pretentious than asking for the same treatment as everyone else, with 0 effort and just for participation.
Imagine if athletes would join a marathon just for recreation reason, half way stop and get a cab to drive them to the end, and then ask for a medal.
It's pathetic lol. And that's what a lot of these PvE SS crybabies expect to gain here.
So yea, take your time to process this and use your own advice - calm down, take a deep breath, and accept that majority of PvE oriented players didn't think through before purchasing this game. 😅
