    Here are a few PC's player thoughts on sea of thieves. First off I have to say the graphical and visual style make this game look bloody fantastic, like absolutely stunning.

The quests are repetitive boring and you can see all the content the game has within 4 hours of playing, levelling up the faction ranks does not give you different or more interesting quests, just longer go here find/kill this come back quests.

    in short the base of the game has so much promise and potential but the content is not here and is not worth the £50/$60 price tag, if you want to try this game get the xbox game pass on the 2 week free trial, then see how you feel about it rather than wasting the money on an underwhelming game.    … Expand

    - Lacks content
    - Windows 10 only? Are you serious?
    - Repetitive
    - PvP griefing is a thing in this game...yep
    - no progression
    - With a good team you can complete everything this game has to offer in 3 hours
    - 69€ ($86 i.e. full priced AAA-game) from this? REALLY?

Literally 1 person can navigate, turn the ship, adjust the sails, manage damage, and manage the anchor, kill skeletons, and complete all styles of quests. 5 years of development for 2 hours of gameplay.

    This game is little more than a scam in my eyes. A pretty, shallow present wrapping with an empty (sand)box inside.

But after a little while, you realize, this is it, there isn't anything more in this game.

    As game developer I can't help but notice the lack of effort that went into this game. This is what made me come to the conclusion of scam. If you were to make an asset-list from all items, objects and things in the game. and compare this to other similarly priced games. You would start to understand what I mean. This game has about 10% of the effort put into it compared to your average $60 experience ($85 if you buy this in Europe)

    There are no cheap cosmetics, a getting hat will take you 5 hours of play (if you don't fool around) and changing your ship color or sail at least two full days of play. (and since barely anyone paints their ship, it's hard to tell them apart) This grind is there for two reasons: To keep you playing for longer, since there is not much else to play towards, and to sell future micro-transactions.

    One thing that personally stuck out to me as a sore thumb is the music. I love the concept that they made. There is no soundtrack, but you get two instruments, to play your own music with friends. It's really fun to make your own pirate song. But this hole thing turns into a pain when you realize there is only 4 songs, and not even the most known shanties. (maybe a few more you can discover, but haven't found any of them) After a while this will get to your nerves as they become very repetitive after hours of play. It is just a detail, but it shows the enormous lack of effort that went into this game. With this concept they could easily have made 30+ shanties or more varying instruments like a flute, a drum or a guitar.

    My recommendation: don't, DO NOT, buy this game at full price. But surely check it out with the xbox game-pass. It's worth experiencing, but not worth wasting money on. This game is another example of sickness that is spreading in the Industry.    … Expand

No real value to the chests you dig up. The value of the chest is worth more than the gold. You don't need to buy anything from the shop keepers with your worthless chests of gold, because you don't get to keep it. I figured, to purchase A BUCKET (which you get for free on spawn in)...... you would have to dig up, over 84 chests. For a bucket. A single bucket. And that's for the cheap stuff. - But get this, after you spent the money on the expensive bucket which doesn't do ANYTHING better than the bucket you get for free when you spawn in. The Game Designer really must be a maniac. - The motion and visuals of the water is stunning, and the best part of the game, otherwise this is another empty shell of a game, where you "make up you're own fun." - With nothing else but grind..... but go ahead, go have "fun".

    Oh, where you expecting to find something? ME TOO!

    Sea of Emptiness is the prime example of a polished turd. This game actually has less content than No Mans Sky on launch day. They envisioned a type of multiplayer game where players would create ''experiences that are entertaining to watch" and I don't doubt that it'll be a big hit on twitch or youtube but people are going to see how much fun others are having and are going to buy it think that they will also have fun only to be horribly disappointed.

    Cons:
    -There is no character creation, just a randomized roulette wheel.
    -There is no lore or story.
    -NPCs are boring and say nothing that's of any interest.
    -The games three factions offer only simple fetch quests with no reward except gold.
    -The only progression is ranking up in one of three factions, doing so will reward you in fetch quests with more steps which might give you a little more gold than starting quests.
    -Gold is mainly used to purchase cosmetics.
    -Cosmetics offer nothing except a change in appearance. And because there is nothing but cosmetics a person that has played the game for 1 minute is no different than a person that's played it for 300 hours.
    -The only enemy you have excluding other players are skeletons (snakes don't count as you can just walk around them) that offer as much challenge as Minecraft PvE. Walk backward and shoot,
    -Enemies drop nothing and seem to only get in your way.
    - PvP is a thing but since there is no reward for killing other players there's no point. No k/d, no score, nothing.
    -Islands are practically empty. No environmental hazards of any kind.
    -When sailing the only hazards you have are a storm that you can easily avoid.
    -A shark spawns to discourage you from being in the water too long. It's a game that's 90% water, why?
    -There are no penalties for anything. You can die all you want, lose your ship, kill other players and nothing bad will happen.
    -Crews are limited to 4 people. This can be an issue when using the galleon which requires a minimum of 6.

    Pros:
    -It looks nice.

    To ask a person to pay $60 (a price which no game should ever be worth and we should never have been okay with) for basically nothing is insulting to say the very least. It's degrading, derogatory, disrespectful, offensive, repulsive, and rude.

    I already know how this is going to work because I've seen these scum sucking tactics before. They release this empty game and then over the years add the rest of it piece by piece, only they've wrapped it up as extra content, and then charge people $20 or $30.

    The game has basically zero content. It's a sandbox, and it's a barren wasteland of a sandbox.
    - The world is empty. Other than generic skeletons, and the same npcs that give you fetch quests in every port, there is nothing in the entire world other than yourself, and some sharks.

    - The quests are super-generic fetch quests. There are no storyline quests, there is no interaction, and there is no variety.
    After you've done quests for a couple of hours, you've seen all there is to see. For the remainder of your playtime, the quests will now be complete carbon copies.

    - PVP is the only ray of light in this entire experience, but if you're a crew of 1-2, expect to be completely ganked by 4-man crews over and over and over. If you're a 4-man crew, expect to gank smaller ships, which will give you basically nothing, as no one ever carries any treasure, and the sinking of the ship gives you no extras.

    - There is no progress in this game. What you start with on day 1, is the same you will have on day 3000 as it stands now.
    You do not gain experience or levels, you can't buy better equipment, ships, or anything to better yourself with. The only thing you do is to deliver fetch quests, which gives you gold and standing with the different factions, and this again makes you able to only buy cosmetic items, nothing other than cosmetic items.

    This is a full release from a big company, for a AAA price tag. For your money, you get something more akin to an early release game from an indie company.

    The game has huge potential, and the fun we were having in the beginning is a sign of what would've been possible with this game.
    I would've loved to have seen storyline quests, more interactive and engaging NPC enemies. A more vibrant world of discovery and adventure, and something that makes you feel like your character, ship and equipment is progressing and becoming better.

    However, what we are left with, is a game that has the depth of a puddle. A barren sandbox sea, with no interactions other than the ones you can make yourself with other players. Generic and boring quests, and no character or equipment progression.

    This is most certainly not worth the price tag, and I would not recommend anyone to buy this, other than the 14-day free trial from the xbox game pass.

    Maybe they will continue development, and maybe it will be a good game in the future. That's a possibility, but this is a full AAA release with a AAA price tag from a big game company, and the complete lack of content just can't be excused.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I feel like most of the reviews are extremely unfair for this game, so thought i'd write my own one. Sea of Thieves is a wonderful game, been spending hours since the realease with a few friends. The pvp is engaging and a real adrenaline rush. Raids in the game are amazing the beacon luring all the players into one spot, then later sinking all the ships coming for you and then delivering houndreds of thousands worth of gold to the merchants is a real kicker. Game is only repetetive if you go for a "side quest" at the time and then deliver it. Engage yourself into the world fight for loot there are people sailing around all over the place but most will avoid you cause they're scared of losing their loot. I havent had a calm moment in the game, always fighting someone be it 2v4, 2v4v4 or even more it's always fun to come out on top if you play it right. Sailing and shooting in the game feels great as well, that is coming from a person that tops out on most fps's and competetive games.

    My negatives for the game would be that as a PC player i am stuck with xbox live app and it's not a great interface, very buggy and horrible UI and as for the price tag? no it's not worth 60€ maybe a 50€, playing on the game pass thankfully will most likely pay the full price they ask for if they live up to the promise of fair microtransactions and NO loot boxes.

    Side Note: haven't been sunk yet cause we're playing against xbox one players and they have not a chance against a PC player almost Maxed out all the factions,

    Feels like it should be a free to play in browser game. It has no depth, awful progression system and extremely unrewarding. It's worse than No Mans Sky, what is happening to games.

    All tinfoil and no gum. Sure it is pretty, but even with friends in MP this gets stale in a few short hours. Zero consequence, zero progression, 100% cosmetics that cost you day of your life to grind for. It is almost as if this is just an Alpha and they are waiting for the community to dictate where the game design should go. That kind of outsourcing never turns out well.

It is not even a sandbox game, which many are claiming, as you are tied to missions from NPC. This is nothing more than a simulator for friends to goof off in. For $15 that would be fine, but for $60 it is an abhorrent cash-grab.… Expand

    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]
