To Solo Play Players: If You Could Disable PVP, Would You Play in Open Play Mode Instead?

Not even that (although the modes are useful to avoid issues like that) - they exist to let players who to choose to play among.

There's no compelling reason to remove any of the three game modes, in my opinion.

There is no reason to remove any of the game modes in my opinion either.

It would be possible to make the game Open only, but that would require a complete redesign of all those singleplayer-oriented elements.
Removing PvP would be neither sufficient nor necessary if they wanted to do that.

The reason to maintain separate game modes is not PvP.
It's the presence of certain game loops designed primarily for single player (like pad blocking or Guardian ruins, for example).

There are various possible approaches to all of these issues. What we have now is the way as chosen by the developers, while the thread question is hypothetical.

And ofc there are other PvE players who absolutely don't know what they are doing. These players are usually way more toxic than all the gankers in the world combined (and I know a lot of gankers, even very good ones, not only that one random dude an average PvEer gets ganked by once in half a decade). I could insert a wallpaper here full of salty local and system messages sent by these people only because someone dared to interdict their precious pixels in Open, but I guess the forum rules would not allow it because of the swear words. Honestly, these people are simply not compatible with a multiplayer game of any kind.

Yeah blame the victim for not being a good sport.

Lets say somebody smashes your car. Metal and plastics are not victims. And after all its just money. Which basically is time. Likewise what ever losses one gets in game is equally about time. Time needed to cover those losses, and so on.

OR lets say somebody hacks your computer, and wipes all the files. Even if you had full backup, it tends to get irritating. Because it does cost you time. Even while all bits are replaceable.

No cars smashed, no metal melted, no money lost and ironically, no time lost.

Some people do not like getting their property thrashed, and usually by entirely one sided encounter. The other guy in many cases do not have any chance, except than powering down their router.
