MODERATORS
After trying to get into this game, twice, I always felt it would be made so much better with PvE instead of PvP. Like all MMO’s, if you didn’t get in on the ground floor, it’s ultra confusing and punishing to try to work your way in now, with so many unexplained mechanics and just getting griefed over and over.
This dosent really apply to SoT because there is no leveling mechanic. All "levels" do is unlock more cosmetics and more complicated mission types. If small, low risk missions are your jam, there is nothing stopping you from just being a delivery pirate. The only thing that comes with expirence is knowing the games quirks (like that you can load your self into a cannon) and 1 secret mission vendor.
Yeah same, I always felt this game would be so much more awesome as a cozy co-op thing instead of a tense PvP thing.
