Years ago I went to the sea of thieves forums and asked what people thought of a pve mode. What followed was hundreds of dms calling me a pussy, saying "It's sea of thieves not sea of friends, get good" Then it started to devolve into mostly just insults. It was the same experience as playing the game and having children scream slurs at you. Sea of thieves has the worst "community" of any game I've ever played. It was clear to me then that the better players were upset to be losing their easy loot targets who just want to quest or fish and it seemed the game devs were supporting that.

Dude, it's literally ANY pvp community ever. Experienced players just normalize trauma the way your alcoholic parent normalize it.

I've seen too many stubbornly communities that insisted that there is special magic about being vulnerable all the time.
