    Full of content, very fun to play with friends, even though some quest are just running around and getting loot and stuff it is still very enjoyable, doesn't get boring or repetitive, amazing game!

    According to Steam, I have 84 hours on this game. And I've only played through half of the content. The graphics aren't bad, the music is great, and the gameplay is fun. I highly recommend it, if you've got a few friends to sail with.

    The 'Tall-tales' we've done so far have been enjoyable little romps that emulate a grand adventure over multiple chapters.

    Even other player interactions, which I have noted that other people have had primarily negative ones, have very rarely been so for me. Talking to people on other ships, forming alliances, and making new friends has been a blast.

    Great game to play with friends and family. Also brings back the good old days where you could interact with other random online players.

    This game has a really cool and unique concept. You are of course a pirate and you go on various different quests exploring places like islands and wreckages finding loot to sell to vendors. You can also come across online players who you can engage
    Great game to play with friends and family. Also brings back the good old days where you could interact with other random online players.

    This game has a really cool and unique concept. You are of course a pirate and you go on various different quests exploring places like islands and wreckages finding loot to sell to vendors. You can also come across online players who you can engage in pvp combat with taking their loot before they have chance to sell it leaving them with nothing. You can also select to team up with other online players if 1 of you has space on the boat. You get 3 different boats. Different sizes have the option of different party sizes. The largest being up to 4 players.

    This game doesn't hold your hand to much. Working stuff out requires a bit of actual input from the player. Or just google it. This is ofcourse a good thing. Learning is fun. Games feel so boring when everything is just done for you.

    If you are the type of person who will get frustrated over the fact that you can spend ages collecting loot for it to be taken by over players then this game isn't for you. How ever myself I love it when a game punishes you for failing.

    Online players a really nice and interactive. People are always happy to help new players get the hang of things. Most people online have mics aswell so you can speak to each other.

    Overall this game offers hours of fun with countless stuff to explore. Updates come out quite often aswell adding to the list of stuff to do.

    I don't understand why this game isn't well perceived by many people. The reason you can't upgrade your boat with stronger cannons and so on is because new players would just get sank all the time. You can how ever unlock cosmetic upgrades or you can buy them with real money. You can still have plenty of fun without dropping any real cash. There is a battlepass aswell but this game still offers tons of stuff outside of the battlepass.

    It's a really fun game to play especially with friends but I think it could use more content like for example much more different missions or even new game modes.

    One of the most original and best overall game ever made. It's one of those rare (pun intended) games you can play as you like. You can be a true pirate; hunting other ships and steal their loot, explorer; find burried treasure on the islands or underwater, deliver stuff as a merchant or just enjoy sailing in the sunsets and sunrises. You can't get bored and game gets more and moreOne of the most original and best overall game ever made. It's one of those rare (pun intended) games you can play as you like. You can be a true pirate; hunting other ships and steal their loot, explorer; find burried treasure on the islands or underwater, deliver stuff as a merchant or just enjoy sailing in the sunsets and sunrises. You can't get bored and game gets more and more exciting by leveling up particular 'career', or with actual game updates ; bringing even more stories, missions, modes and gameplay upgrades. Definitely game for everyone, no matter what's your gaming backround. Expand

    10/10 with friends, not that great if you play alone. You are a pirate and you go on adventures with your friends, what else would you ever want from a game?

    I think this is the best pirate game after AC Black Flag. It doen't have crafting but it is very fun with your friends.

    This is in my opinion one of the best games to play with friends, the ship's mechanics are really cool and you don´t need more than 4 different weapons. NOT pay to win. I would not recommend to you to buy this game if you going to play it by solo and if you don´t have no one to play with, find a discord server of the game it is always fun.

    it's a game that needs to be understood, unfortunately there is a real objective in this game but it has very fun gameplay.
    If you have just finished watching films like "Pirates of the Caribbean" and you want an adventure at sea, perhaps accompanied by other friends, this game can give you a great adventure.

    Sea of Thieves has successfully redeemed its clumsy launch with Rare being a developer that fully commits to the title with monthly updates for more than two years. Now – it is a game brimming with content, adventure and gorgeous pirate atmosphere with arguably being the best pirate game available and a truly fun multiplayer experience.

    A year of updates has helped fill out its light content, but the real magic was there from the start. Rare’s take on cartoon piracy encourages you to behave as a cartoon pirate should: a little bloodthirsty, a little silly, and almost always drunk.

    Sea of Thieves has a solid foundation, but unfortunately there is no content and in a few of gameplay the feeling of being a pirate completely disappears. [Issue#285]
