That’s nice but do they hold the world record on Bowser’s Big Bean Burrito?

Coulda bought 8 of these instead, just sayin’

Understandable. But for anyone else reading this and is interested in moving to High Seas, I should make it clear what is considered “toxic” in this game:

Toxic (actual bannable behavior):

• Hacking.
• Using slurs, verbal abuse, etc. (the common standards you will see for voice/chat interaction in modern online games).

Not toxic:

• Attacking other crews for any reason, even if they don’t fight back or don’t have any loot on their ship.
• Trash talking that doesn’t go into the category of slurs and personal abuse. (That being said, you can mute other crews any time with a hotkey).

One of the things that frustrates new players is the misconception that there are rules or standards for getting attacked by other crews.

Fighting, lying, stealing, and sneaking are all part of intended gameplay. They are the essence of the game, and are what leads to the most exciting and memorable player interactions. I say this as an almost exclusive solo player who is always at a disadvantage in PvP situations.

That being said, you can always choose to be nice, and that can also lead to rewarding player interactions. But you should never assume that the other crews are playing by your rules.

Always good to see a new pirate on the sea of thieves! Safer Seas is great for a basic tutorial, but don’t be afraid to jump to High Seas as soon as you are familiar with the mechanics. Do not wait until you’re level 30.

The new quest table in season 11 makes it safer and easier than ever to earn gold as a solo player, so there’s no point in taking the 70% reduction from Safer Seas.

The first thing you want to focus on is buying a captained ship. This will massively increase your convenience in selling loot, and is really the only thing you can buy that actually “upgrades” your character.

The next thing you want to focus on is … whatever you want! Progression is just cosmetics and getting better at the game. It’s a true sandbox.

If you want to get better at PvP, just fight every ship you see. You will sink a lot, but each time you will get a little better. Don’t be afraid to lose fights and lose treasure to other players. There will always be more loot!

For useful tips and tricks aimed at new players, I recommend Phuzzybond’s guides on YouTube.

Happy sailing!

This also worked for me:

I stopped using reddit, because it turned to shit.

I’m eagerly awaiting the demise of Blu-Ray so I can finally get use of my HD-DVD player.

Just need to mod out that PSU fan and it’ll be perfect

I’d like to thank all the teenagers who used their mom’s credit cards to buy Fortnite skins so I can enjoy free GTA V, Control, Star Wars Battlefront, and now this game.

Return Of The Jedi: All their optimism for restoring the republic, Luke restoring the Jedi, Han and Leia starting a family. All made pointless by the crappy sequels.

That guy is too smart, he’d better he careful. He’ll be found dead at his desk after mysteriously choking on an HP cyan cartridge.

My answer to problems in Halls of Torment is to use archer crit build. If that doesn’t work, add more crit.

Civ

It’s such a racket. My 3 year old phone is perfect except for the battery. I remember back in the day I could pop open my case with my thumbnail and the battery was just sitting there ready to swap. Nowadays that process involves specialized tools and heating pads to melt glue. I’m hopeful that the industry is trending toward removable batteries again, but that’s still years away.

TIL “beginning of Reddit” comprises the time up to and including July 2023.

Tell me lies tell me sweet little lies

I had forgotten how nauseating corporate doublespeak can be. This can’t be for employees. I cannot fathom how any competent professional would actually this seriously.
