It appears that the game Skull and Bones has reached a point where having an abundance of resources no longer feels rewarding, but rather like too much of a good thing. Players are investing significant amounts of time and effort into a game that seems to be in limbo until the next major update arrives. The author, Schofield_, accumulated over 20,000 sovereigns and 3.6 million PO8, which would be a pirate’s dream if there were more valuable things to spend them on. As Schofield_ stated, “If you’re going to wipe the Sov’s (sovereignty), then give us something worthwhile to spend them on.” Many players seem to share this sentiment, as evidenced by the comments section. For example, arcticfox4 has been buying seasonal gear in bulk, while gravel_vontrox has a large inventory of idle materials, both expressing feelings of inefficiency and frustration. Additionally, there is a growing concern about what will happen to all the resources players have worked so hard to accumulate when the game undergoes a reset or major change. This fear is that all their grinding could result in nothing more than a brief flash in the pan once the wipe occurs.
