So finally got around to this game the past couple of nights. Been interested in it for a while but figured it was just going to be griefer central. First night just did the tutorial and did an intro mission for the Gold Hoard. Had some fun, didn't interact with anyone so that was good. Played again last night with a couple friends, went to do a mission for the Order of Souls or whatever, get on the beach and realize our ship is being blown up by another crew. I swim out there and they just kind of stare at me. I head back to land to just do the mission and one of their guys shows up and one shots me. Turned the game off. Nah fam too many games and not enough time to play to worry about a******s. Let me play 100% PvE and I'll care.
It's a PIRATE GAME.
This game clearly isn't for you. It was designed as a PvPvE game and will never be a PvE only game. Having 0 threat to your treasure hunting would be brain dead boring.
