Please do something about water and swimming

I had an interesting water experience in Brightwood. I’ve attached a short video to demonstrate. Basically, I fell off a dock, dropped like a stone as we do, and drowned due to being stuck under
everything:

The general aesthetic underwater appears to be very unfinished, too, looking at the way the buildings just…stop existing. I’m sure I’m not the only person to ask about swimming but I think there would be HUGE value to finishing the system. It feels jarring coming from WoW, specifically, but I’m sure any other game with water.

Thoughts?

I’ve a mad theory they don’t want people swimming to areas they shouldn’t at the moment.
It would be interesting if they went all BDO with the marine areas of the map.

Definitely untapped potential for naval warfare and underwater exploration…an air wisp UBD (lol)

Would it fit in the game?not sure, plenty of sailors couldn’t swim.

I was very confused when I entered water for the first time and my character started walking on the bottom of the ocean.

I was playing last night and came across some lore that made me think that this is potentially are party of the game on purpose. I can’t exactly remember what it was but I’ll have to check it out when i get home from work.

Also, what if it’s something having to do with the island and is one of the reasons making it hard for people to leave the island?

That’s a very interesting idea. If it does tie into the lore I’m all for it ASSUMING there’s a way to avoid glitchy situations and inadvertent deaths.

The game lacks polish, hopefully its addressed.
