Firstly I wanna say I really enjoy this game & have played almost daily since launch. Everyday when I get off work I go home & hop on some sea of thieves hoping to get some fun,excitement & action. However this is rarely the case. When I sail to a skullfort 80% of the time it’s uncontested. It’s a rarity to get a good battle at the skullforts. I sail around dead & desolate servers. With my trusted cutlass & sniper in hand there is only one major problem. There aren’t any other pirates to share my sword with. Being a pirate legend Athena 10. I’m pretty much over repetitive go fetch voyages. Destroy statues some may say, my rebuttal to this statement would be I’m not 5yrs old & it isn’t very rewarding for me. Actually it’s a very mundane & tedious task I don’t enjoy even a little. Weekly challenges are a great feature don’t get me wrong. IMO they need to up the players per server & reward players with unique titles & merchandise for actual acts of piracy. You know selling loot you didn’t voyage for. Without this I don’t know how much replay ability this game will have for me 😕. Like I said everyday I want to play this game until I actually start playing it realize how non exciting & dead the world is. Again this isn’t a rant, I wanna play the game I really do. Give a dog a bone 🍖 we need more sails on the horizons

Firstly, i agree with upping the server count, it is a tad barren at times.
But mainly, and i apologise for being presumptuous, it sounds like you might enjoy skull and bones more.
SOT is fun, but it's largely down to the childish charm it's centered on. I get the impression that this isn't your preference.
SAB is more focused on the pirates and piracy acts. Its centered more towards tactics and strategy.Again i don't want to tell you what to play but if you haven't already, maybe check out the skull and bones trailer.
I have checked out the trailer. Didn’t look very good to me. I agree with you that this game is probably going to continue to be too childish for my liking. I don’t understand why we can’t get a little of both. I would love if they added some more mature features like being able to take captives. Maybe hang the skeletons of the players I’ve killed from my sails. To make my approaching galleon even more sinister & ominous looking.
I mean children have even shorter attention spans than I do. If all of your boring content is going to be geared towards them. Then I question the longevity o this title. Which is a shame given how original a concept this game is & how much potential this type of game has.
It's that stale comment, used to much here but
"content is coming, in time"From what I've seen and what I understand. Don't expect things like graphic gore or in game gambling, even alcohol of detail or note or even mature acts such as those seen in the fable series. I doubt any are on the games horizon.
I'd even hazard a guess to say that enemies will never get more frightening than things like meg and karen.Not to say the game will fail or be bad in any way, however its audience is not likely to be the pubg but more the fortnite, if you got my drift.
I'd say, enjoy sea of thieves for what it is rather than what it could be because your likely going to be disappointed if features like "hanging my enemies from the sails" don't make the cut.
I understand however that there is so much potential in this game but it often seems like very little direction or momentum.
I can not deny any of your logic. I won’t say too much more. Not here to bash this game as I actually do like the whole theme of the game. Albeit I was not part of the pioneee program but the trailers & previews I saw of this game hinted at a bit more actual pirating. You know actual ships sailing the seas. Had they advertised this game as a game with a beautiful landscape void of any actual life, I probably would of had more reservations in regards to purchasing & a whole awful lot less disappointments.
I hear you content is coming. Ai ghost ships 🤦♂️ like cmon they should of had multiple variations of those since launch.
I don’t know hoping for the best but really starting to believe I’ve played this game enough to experience everything they are going to have to offer. Elementary voyages with buggy gameplay. If raising the faction levels & thinking of new ways to make boring skeletons more exciting is their idea of content. Than I’ve advanced as far as I care to. Granted hanging dead men from my sails & selling my prisoners of war at outposts might be asking a bit much but wanting my server filled with other crews is kind of the whole premise I purchased this game under.
All the people who bought a pirate game to be a fisherman will get their monies worth though 🙄
