How fast do cruise ships get old? I've always been fascinated with them. Most people seem to just eat and eat and eat.
I wish there was a more stripped down version without all the cringy rides and shit. Something more quiet and contemplative for relaxing and being creative like writing.

They exist.
The ones called "ferries" even serve an actual transportation purpose.
Passenger ferries with rooms?
DFDS do a bunch of ferries from the North of England to Norway that are over-nighters with rooms
That aside, if you want a cruise that's more of a relaxing resort than an in your face holiday camp, Cunard do very traditional cruises that focus on luxury and relaxation. They're probably the last 'classical' cruise line.
How have I never heard of this? Looks kino. Although, I'd only go for it if I had to bring a vehicle.
The Baltic Sea has a bunch of double duty cruiseferries which are basically cruise ships stapled onto RORO decks. They are absolutely notorious for being full on booze cruises during the weekends (many boats famously offer free beer and wine on tap in the buffet), if you want to pick up some drunken Scandi action then there's your ticket.
Amsterdam closing their cruise port is going to completely destroy these.
I don't see how that affects the ships running between Finland, Sweden and the Baltics, but okay.
River cruises.
If it really what you want you can book rooms on cargo ships, but it's not especially cheap
There are cruises that are more laid back than all of the ride stuff, you just probably won't get what you're looking for from Royal Caribbean.
I went on my first 7 day cruise in April and was bored by day 3. Even stuffing yourself like a pig gets old by like day 5. The ports were cool (Puerto Vallerta, Mazatlan and Cabo San Lucas).
My friend has a strange affinity with cruises and it was his idea to go. He even said his honeymoon would be a cruise across the Atlantic (if he could help it). I just don't fucking get the appeal. It just felt like being trapped in a hotel for days at a time.
Seems boring as fuck.
What's the cooming scene like? Can you pull staff or other passengers?
bro, i'm autistic and every time i went on a cruise i had international bitches on my dick. if you go on shitty cruise lines you will find so many trashy whorse from all over the world. you go on a rich cruise line and you find pompous daddy's girls who want to be bad for a week. you WILL get your dick sucked. some girls just go on the boats just to fuck a bunch of dudes and get drunk. it's like a swinger's party on some of these boats man. you just go back to the room, everyone has a room. theres no supervision of anyone because everyone knows that you're in the middle of the ocean so it's not like you are in danger or will get lost or someone rob you or kill you. so people just get absolutely shitfaced and sleep around. some of them have games where they make girls get naked and run around or something. it's fucked up. debauchery to the extreme is what a cruise is
They're good if literally all you want to do is sun bathe, eat, and have absolutely everything taken care of for you for a week
Not judging though, sometimes that's all I wanna do too
Not judgin
Fuck sunbathing I’m too pale for that.
But yeah the no effort travel is perfect, especially because I live within driving distance of like 4 ports. One of the few times it pays to be living in Florida.
the boat itself gets old in 3 days
the people on the boat is where the fun is. you WILL fuck some bitches and you WILL buy drugs in the destination spot. high tier cruises are actually kino, but shit like carnival is dogshit unless you want some pussy and drugs
there's a ferry from washington to alaska where they let you pitch a tent on the deck
same route as the cruise ships minus a glacier
Feels like there are many reasons why this is a terrible idea.
