I am enjoying the game, except one thing in the story that keeps coming up and causes me cognitive dissonance. I am in the first system and it isn’t clear to me why we are not considered Pirates.

The characters are always saying stuff like “Don’t be a Pirate” or “Kill all the Pirates”. And then we do stuff like steal from factions/corporations that are neutral to us. Why doesn’t that cause us to be Pirates?

We literally accidentally kidnapped someone. I am so confused.

    I don’t think so, seems like I am a part of a rag-tag group of people who are doing “jobs” to get rich. I don’t think we have any formal government or organization backing.

    I guess I don’t know the full story of everyone I am working with yet. So there could be a twist I am unaware of.
