      My big issue is in the emporium and I understand people trying to defend their choices by saying they need money for the game but that doesn't explain why they're going even harder with the emporium after they just got an influx of cash from the PlayStation players joining
      And recolors of emporium. Very sad

      Hey so all the damages for the weapons were like really off, sword is a 4 hit at full health how can it only do 20 damage and the knife stab is an 8 hit so how does it do 15…

  • @chazzerine7650

    The double barrel pistol buff has allowed you to 2-tap when paired with the flintlock. Since the flintlock does 55 damage, previously if you hit someone once with each weapon, it'd leave them on 5 health (55+40=95 damage). Now that the double barrel does 5 extra damage, it will fully kill a player. And with the buffed hipfire to boot, you can really become a close range gunslinging pirate. Honestly sounds like a super fun loadout.

      Just because they need revenue to keep the game running doesn’t mean they need to take something that was previously, for lack of a better term, ‘special’ and put it behind a paywall… Not that it will matter tbh, players that use the emporium curses will receive even more shit than normal emporium cosmetics and will be seen as a joke by established players. You’ll have the occasional pirate using an emporium curse ironically, but it’s the same as ironic emporium items or ironic default cosmetics lol.

    Curses in the emporium is too far. I got the OOS curse back when it came out and that grind gave me some of the most defining moments to what I wanted to do in sea of thieves. It showed me a large variety of crews, different corners of the community, forced me to explore the map, and gave me information about the setting. Despite the mundaneness of the curse it has become a signature piece of my outfit and ive sworn to get every curse. I dont think everything should be as tedious but those types of experiences is what sea of thieves is truly about. About the stories it gives you.
    Recently i came back to the game for the season and in the end I am happy I did but the reason i came back was because of the stone curse. My first few days back I dreaded being on the seas forced to grind through the pass in order to obtain a curse not only locked behind money but a time limit too. The grind was the only thing that made it remotely ok but now theyre just throwing them in the emporium? No!

    at first i didn't like the emporium having curses either, but i kinda thought it thorough and it's probably gonna just gonna end up like the ashen or sunken sorrow curse, which are like the "new player curses". i'm more worried about the recolours. even tho i don't really like using most emporium cosmetics as they don't show your journey through the game like normal cosmetics do, people still need to buy them for the servers to be up. lazy recolours might make emporium look more like a moneygrab than the kind of premium sets and a non p2w way to monetize the game that it used to be looked at as, which might make it less profitable

    I don’t mind the some curses in the emporium, it’s not like they are adding the earn-able ones to the emporium! They are adding new one that are part of emporium sets to emporium! The Storm curse fits in perfectly to the Storm Chaser set. The stone one fits in with the Medusa themed set. I would love to see more curses that can be earned through game play, but if you don’t want to use real money to get the emporium stuff you don’t have to.

    • @firegads9245

      The main issue more of the fact that opening the door to emporium curses means that earnable curses are possibly going to be put on the back burner, with all new good curses going straight to the emporium.
      The main example of this is what happened to ship trinkets, I don't know about you but I haven't seen any new ones for about a year now except for in the emporium.
      To finish, I don't mind curses in the emporium, but if Rare keep adding them at this rate then there will be more emporium curses than earnable ones, causing the curses to lose their valuable status in a game where cosmetics are the only form of progression.
      Sorry for the essay, just had to get my thoughts out.

    In my opinion, the emporium is merely optional, and they give you a choice to buy the paid cosmetics for their game or earn the free items in game, and I don't really care about how people are complaining about the Emporium, because it's supposed to be a way of funding the devs to make good content updates, and people just don't get that the emporium is there for that reason, you don't have to buy anything from the emporium, it's optional, and when you choose to buy an item, your helping the devs make the game better so think of it that way instead of accusing Rare of being greedy.
    Another thing, I think the nerf on the brig's speed is a good thing, because that was a problem for nearly 6 years since Cursed Sails from 2018, and as a solo sloop player, it's a good thing for me because I'll always catch up to runners, and it will help me in hourglass.

The ship sets have gotten lazier and lazier on top of this. remember when collector figureheads all came with some sort of effect, be it a rainbow, or some flowing gold from a cup or some moving hands, now all we get is a slightly different pose or the figurehead being coloured instead of a single colour.

    As someone that owns a majority of the emporium I think adding curses is a terrible idea. It's like... they don't play their own game. A majority of the people playing are grinding for a curse, if you take that away by making it feel cheap and ez no one will care. They can change the damage on those new weapons all they want, no one is gonna rely on a throwing dagger or a clunky double barrel to defend their loot when the blunder and eye of reach exist. This new curse should have been given to Legendary Hunters but I genuinly think rare hates it's veteran players.
