i dont like the fact that adventures were limited time, i hope they do re-runs of them in the future

And if I had to guess, I'd say the impostor from A Dark Deception will turn out to be LeChuck, as he can theoretically use the Sword of Souls to tighten his own grip on both the Sea of Thieves and the Sea of the Damned. Top tier summary, Ray!

Thanks for making a recap with proper narration and without weird jokes and deceiving imagery, in my opinion this is something that this game needed and it was missing for the general audience. Great video. EDIT: Starting from 17:17 you have made a mistake and made it sound a bit confusing. It's 4 gems, not 3 and you do not mention "The Legendary Storyteller" tall tale at all from which you get one of the gems. A lot of information about Briggsy is missing (I know not absolutely everything is included here since it would make the video last hours but imo that information is very vital), such as what exactly happened to her at the Shores of Gold, why she hid the gems and her overall motivation. At 17:43 you say "Send them [pirates] on a course to retrieve the stone" when it's about all four gems, not just 1 stone. This is pretty much it though, otherwise still a good video.

Cool

The SoT storyline, or rather, how it's implemented, is probably the biggest reason I don't return to the game. The lore and overarching storyline are so enthralling, but you only get to experience what is currently happening. The fact that videos like this are absolutely necessary if you weren't there from day 1 is a major flaw. Sure, it's fun to watch the world evolve along with the story, but that also means that missing past content makes a player extremely apathetic toward future content.

Yeah, it sucks so much. I wouldn't know shit if it wasn't for videos such as this. The community demands Flameheart's return, yet for me he was just a random voice shouting in a lava cave. Same with characters like Pendragon, Belle, Stitcher Jim, the masked lady. They appear in some tall tales for a second posing as important characters and my long time allies/adversaries, yet I'm like 'Who the hell are you? I've never seen you in my life!' Whenever Flameheart is reintroduced it will be like an epic ending for years of story for long time players. But for newer players? Kill that random skeleton and you'll get a cool sword.

@SereglothIV

My dream is that Flameheart's return takes so long because they're converting all the adventures (or at least the most important ones) into tall tales and Flameheart's return will be released as the final one in the set. I don't know if that dream is a realistic scenario though. But one can always hope.

I'm kind of sad that I can't replay the old events I couldn't take part of, I wish they'll give us a chance to replay them someday

But most of the Flamehart stuff was time limited, as well as everything regarding Merrick. This sucks for someone such as myself, who started playing in June 2023. The community rages on about finishing Flameheart's story, yet all I knew about him was that he was an angry voice shouting at me in the lava cave. Characters like Belle or Pendragon pop up in some tall tales claiming we're old allies, yet I'm like 'Who the hell are you? I've never seen you in my life.' Characters like Stitcher Jim, Duke or the masked lady were also just some random dudes who appeared in a single tall tale for a second and I've never seen them before or afterwards. Rare really did screw up with the lore accessibility. I wouldn't know shit if it wasn't for youtube videos such as this one.
