Its pretty shallow, overly simplistic, and the world feels empty. The game is a relentless sequence of rinse and repeat fetch quests, that are boring in every way and lack any real hook or reason to be doing it in the first place. Theres no gear, everything is cosmetic, this effectively means theres no progression or character growth, only arbitrary ranks with the games three factions. There are 3 types of quests, and thats it. Seriously. Go to an island and find treasure, find chickens, or go to an island and kill skeletons.

    The combat is inexcusably bad. Theres a single attack button for swords, which have a 3 hit combo. And thats it... For a game in 2018, I have no idea why Rare thought it was ok to do that. Combat is so bad, it shouldn't even be in the game. Skeletons have broken AI and are no challenge. All you have to do is stand on a rock and it breaks the AI and path finding, and they will just stand there while you mash at them.

    The game gets boring real quick once you figure out youve seen and done everything the game has to offer after the first hour of gameplay. After you learn the mechanics, theres nothing left but the grind. And my oh my is it a grind, the stuff of legend. Since theres no gear, no levels, no equipment or gadgets, no progression, not even a story line or a plot, theres not much this game has to offer.

    A terrible disappointment, through and through. If your set on getting this, DONT BUY IT for $60, thats a total rip off. Get Game Pass by Microsoft, you can play it for 14 days for free (trial.) Overall, the state the game is in is completely inexcusable for a AAA release in 2018, most of the games systems are so archaic its a joke.    … Expand

    Unfortunately a few hours in we started to notice the same thing everyone else has. This game is shallow. After playing it for a little while it feels like someone built the engine, and put those side quests in that people tend to complain about in other games, but forgot to put the main game in. The primary game is fetch quests with a few random events tossed in.

    Sea of Thieves has the framework of a game that could be brilliant. I halfway believe maybe it will become that game in a year or so. If so I'd be more than happy to pay for it. But for now, i could not recommend anyone to buy this essentially early access game at full price.

    Side note: that water is beautiful. Rare should license out whatever tech they used to make that happen.    … Expand

    The idea and concept is amazing, drift on the wide seven seas as you fight other pirates and collect the booty.
    But this game is not that. This game is not at all what was promised. The game looks beautiful and you really come to admire the cartoonish yet amazing artstyle. Furthermore the music in the game is amazing and you'll be dancing to the tunes as you set out on your pirate adventures. But the flaws are there.
    Their is not progression you only have reputation and becoming a "pirate legend" to look forward to. I feel as the game should have been more mmo-esque. What I would have liked to see is a skill tree, not that would make things unfair but i their has to be some kind of objective. Voyage's get old fast and in the beggining they are a real joy, but quickly feel like a choir with voyage's repeating themselves constantly and to my experience, there are almost no other pirates at sea and it just feels like a PvE game only and not a hybrid ( PvP and PvE ).
    The game's asking price is unacceptable regarding the fact that you get so little descent content at launch, the game feels like it's in beta and I do not, at all reccomened buying it for 60 dollars, wait for the price to go down to maybe 15-25 dollars or just get it free for 14 days through xbox game pass!

    Hope you enjoyed my review, if you did you can go check out my youtube channel at JustMeaty ( the channel with Glitched M as its logo ), I don't upload reviews there but you can find other types of exciting content there! Farewell! :D    … Expand

    Such a beautiful game. The art is clearly very well-done.

    However, for $60 there is no real game. The only three missions you really get are so pathetically repetitive. You could play for a single hour and finish every single mission type possible.

    This is yet another $ 60 open-world piece of sh*t game with barely anything to do outside of killing the same skeletons on tiny-ass islands or fighting the occasional player online. This is yet another exclusive that fails to make the underpowered xbox one and its cousins fly off the shelves, and further proves that rare is a shadow of its former self.

    The game looks fine and enjoyable at first, but after a good 5-6 hours of playing it, the game feels like it has already given everything it can offer, which to me, isn't very fun and interesting.

    Well... If they wanted the biggest disappointment award, they earned it for sure. The game itself gets boring after maybe 10-20 hours and since the game is full price, it's almost outrageously bad for the price. Even with friends, the game quickly becomes duller then a rusty knife and has to be one of my most hated games right now.

The missions you are tasked with are very difficult and you die often when you play alone. The final thing I will pick on is the very slow, dull sword fighting mechanics. This is definitely the most boring and tedious part of the entire game… Expand

    Sea of Thieves Review: 3.5/10
    I didn't like this game at all... graphics aren't good, gameplay is boring, almost free to play level, very tedious, uninteresting quests, very little content and there isn't any kind of character progression. I was interested at the beginning for the premise, but the excitement went away very fast.
    A very shallow game.

    Pvp only is way too frustrating for new players with basic stuff, the game is quite good and beautiful but to die again and again takes all of the fun out... I'm glad i played it with gamepass and didn't have to pay full price. A pve mode would allow more players to enjoy the game especially when a pvp mode already exists.

    honestly a surprisingly mediocre game that I only got because my cousin wanted me to play it and it was free on the game pass, the missions are rather repetitive and the combat boring and limited leaving little room for the imagination perhaps there is something I am missing but at the moment I barely enjoy the game with people let alone by myself.

    Another shallow game from MS. I didn't expect much from Rare given their recent repertoire, but still, this game received so much attention that it gave me a tiny bit of hope. Nope. This game is fun for the first few hours, while you look around, laugh with friends, and do the activities at hand. After about 3-4 hours however, you've pretty much seen all you need to see in the game. SoAnother shallow game from MS.

    Sea Of Thieves feels like Rare came in with a water physic tech demo and then added a simple item fetch quest system and called this a complete game. Calling this a Rare title feels horrible as I love classic Rare.. anything from Kameo and back to DK Country.

    Simply put this game has a great sailing system, bare bones mechanics both in fighting, PVE, PVP, and customization. Take a look    Sea Of Thieves feels like Rare came in with a water physic tech demo and then added a simple item fetch quest system and called this a complete game. Calling this a Rare title feels horrible as I love classic Rare.. anything from Kameo and back to DK Country.

    Simply put this game has a great sailing system, bare bones mechanics both in fighting, PVE, PVP, and customization. Take a look at the announce trailer 2 yrs ago and tell me if you see anything new or changed.. and should I even say things were removed such as ability to open a chest.

    Pros:
    - Beautiful Water Physics
    - Concept
    - Art style
    - Team Gameplay regarding ship controls and ship combat.

    CONS:
    - Quest System ( 3 Types of quests which are pretty much the same thing..just a new asset is used as the collect this and return concept.
    - Cosmetics ( Rare has literally only done cosmetics for the last like 15 yrs on the marketplace.. a couple small Kinect games don't count) .. why so few and why so generic?
    - No progression past a Rep system that is to this point completely meaningless past cosmetic unlocks.
    - No Leveling system
    - No Penalties for anything ( If grinding for cosmetic gold currency is boring .. all there is left is PVP.. problem is no bounties or anything to make one Pirate more fierce or a price on a head or anything to make people care.. the only thing to do is do everything you can in about 1 hour.. then just ruin the time of others without any thought on should or does it matter)
    - World has nothing to do.. no interaction with anything.. exploring feels pointless.
    - So few enemies and can we talk about how the animations (Snakes) are so freaking awful.
    - No Story, No nothing really..just a good team sailing game with nice water and weather effects on water.
    - So much missing.. only two types of boat.. No Canoes, No Harpoons, No loot, No Traps, Nothing interesting to collect.
    - Weapon Combat is bad, feels like what you see produced in college game design classes. Nothing slashing a horribly animated snake just to see if fall and disappear.

    My overall opinion is this game was created by a totally changed and corporate Rare.. Microsoft knew this game had no features and didn't care.. they used this as a big name title with lots of hype to convince people to NOT PAY 60 BUCKS AND INSTEAD SUBSCRIBE TO XBOX GAMEPASS which is honestly whats going on seeing they actually had ads up saying play for FREE.. 14 day trial and only 10 bucks/month. They want people to pay 10 bucks a month that way they are slowing paying into a Early Access game that isn't called Early Access !    … Expand

    If this game was a movie it would be a straight to DVD type of movie. Makes sense why it went straight to gamepass I guess. This game is easily forgettable and pretty repetitive. Feeling repetitive after 2 hours is not a good sign. I also don't like the art style or the clunky gameplay mechanics. Nothing AAA about this, and could easily pass as a free-to-play title.

    The basic ship mechanics are smooth and enjoyable, but that is about all there is to this game. The content is amazingly sparse, with only 3 fetch quest type missions available:

    1) Follow clues to treasure chests. These can be relaxing to do (solo) but are really very trivial, I can't see how this would be enjoyable after more than a couple days. 2) Collect random animals.

    3) Kill "boss" skeletons. Again, very trivial and not enjoyable as the gun/melee mechanics in this game are very limited.

    Basically, all of the mission types above would be considered filler quests in any other MMO or RPG. Quests you wouldn't bother with after doing them a couple times. But that is all there is to this game.

    The PVP is pretty weak as well, but I mostly play solo so I didn't do too much of that. It is annoying that you have to deal with gank squads that just sit at outposts ready for you to return the boring missions. Running very boring missions with a chance of getting ganked at the end? Wow what fun! They should let solo players into instances with only other solo players that might be a bit more enjoyable.

    And not only are the missions boring and repetitive but the gold you receive is very minor for completing them. After almost 2 days I'm not even close to affording a single ship cosmetic (70,000 gold for the lamest ship cosmetic and after 2 days I'm not even close to that). Sure I can afford a couple lame clothing items but decking out your ship is what people want and that will take forever.

    I might have given this a 5/10 if the price was $20, with the promise of more content to come. But for $60 this game is an absolute rip off. After less than 2 days I'm already bored and probably won't bother playing anymore. Save your money or wait a couple years and see if they ever add any interesting content.    … Expand

The only other thing is to fight other people, but the combat feels like it was made for the N64. It's slow, imprecise, and janky as hell. It's an early access game that was priced as a full game. Not worth more than 20 dollars. And even then I'd say your still getting ripped off.… Expand

Roughly Three hours in and I’ve only seen one other person while playing solo or with friends. The game is gorgeous, however on higher settings has a pretty bad frame rate on PC. I’ve never seen water look this good honestly. The bad for me is how simple this game is & I do mean simple.

    There are 3 factions and each one gives you fetch quests to go and get something to bring back to them. Each time you do it you will get a faction number to rise which unlocks a cosmetic, exclusive to that faction while getting some gold. You then use the gold to buy skins for your character(that you don’t get to create), your weapons and ship. That’s it. There’s no story, there’s no other quest elements. All of the gear is cosmetic and plays the same as what you start out with. There are chests worth more and some do stuff like fill up your boat randomly with water if it’s a cursed chest.

    Overall it feels like a game still in beta and maybe one that was gonna use the loot box algorithm. I’m really disappointed in Rare & for the millionth time this gen, Microsoft. It’s not worth $60 and I felt like the $35 I put into it was too much also. I’d have paid maybe $15 for it, if anything honestly.

    This is very much the “Destiny” of pirate games and what I mean by that is another sixty dollar title has little content, a very buggy launch and is very repetitive. It is far worse in that sense than Destiny, but so people know where im coming from that is what I mean. I don't see this making it very far even with some changes due to the slew of games coming out this year, including what looks like a more ambitious pirate themed video game.    … Expand

    They should have made the game fun and friendly to everyone instead of making it favor PvP focused players while intentionally disadvantaging PvE focused players. For all the people that are going to tell me this is a PvP game, like I mentioned already, there's a lot of PvE content for a PvP focused game. Arena is PvP, Open is a ganker's paradise. It's anarchy. If you're good at PvP and you have a crew of 4+, then it's open season to roam around and kill people at your leisure, for everyone else it's a nightmare of constantly looking over your shoulder, losing your progress and putting up with griefers. Imagine if GTA had no passive mode and you had to do all of the missions in the public lobby where you could have some one roll up and kill you at any time.

In my first 20 hours of gameplay, this is what I've noticed.

    Camping
    Camping outposts is really common and really popular. As a sloop player for the first 10 hours if I saw a 4 man camping the outpost it became "time to visit another outpost". That kind of gameplay isn't fun. As a 4 man, I found that while unloading we'd just get barraged by other groups and have some but a very small portion stolen. This also isn't fun. Its the equivalent of dying while turning in a quest to only realize you have to do the quest again entirely. In WOW they have guards that punish players for killing in certain areas but still allowing it. Not every outpost should be a safe zone but there should be at least 1 area where you can safely turn in quests. A lot like a pirates haven.

    Spawn Abuse
    In my last 5 hours of playing I was with a fairly well coordinated 4 man. We were taking a stronghold and halfway through someone tried to sink our ship. No big deal we take them on and enjoy the action. We sink their ship after landing 15 shots to the submerged part of the ship. So we go back to the stronghold and keep on fighting it while a few of our guys repair then meet back up. The guys who we just sunk respawn and come over. We sink them again. We continue the stronghold. They come over again they finally sink us and the stronghold was at the boss. We lost once but because spawning is abusable we lost a lot of work. To me, there should be some kind of New Life Rule or NLR. The fact that we sunk them in a completely fair matchup should have been the end of that quarrel. Extremely lame that you can win and those who lost get to abuse respawning until they win if their spawns are lucky enough. To me, this feels like I'm wasting my time playing. I enjoyed taking the stronghold I enjoyed fighting the enemies. I did not enjoy getting cheesed and the game permits it. Which pretty much negates any fun I was having.

    Quests
    Quests are highly repetitive. Maybe scale difficulty quicker. A lot of the level 15 quests feels no harder than the level 1. You have skeletons you have bosses use them. Too many quests demand the same thing without variation in difficulty. Every now and then you do get a good hard one but it's not often. Also for merchant quests, it would be nice to turn it in anywhere since outpost camping is a thing and its hard enough doing the merchant quests for fun anyways.

    NonQuest Items
    Nonquest items contribute jack all to your rank in that guild. It really should contribute just as much since getting items from quests is actually easier since it screams "THE LOOT IS RIGHT HERE".

    Price
    For 60$ you won't get much for variety here. Realistically the game should cost 20$ or 30$ the 60$ is a cash grab and a joke until the price is brought down I do not recommend playing this game.

    Conclusion
    It's not bad but if you already have gamepass do not pay the 60$ on this game it will leave you with regret. I would actually recommend buying gamepass for a week and you'll experience all this game has to offer for 10$.

    This is the most grindy game I have ever played, coupled with problems like (literally) one type of enemy, snakes with more health than sharks, physics engine bugs that have sunken ships leaving the water and flying overhead(!), a tiny game world, repetitive under-populated islands, just 3 basically identical quest types and horribly poor balance between small and large crews when it comes to the much-touted skeleton forts, this game officially stinks worse than a bilge-rat boot.

    What a rush-job - a great graphics engine and a satisfying sailing mechanic do not a game make - virtually every mobile game has greater depth and variety. Do NOT waste your money - give it 18 months and check back in - or just go play Monkey Island, Sid Meier's Pirates or Ron Gilbert's underrated mobile game Scallywags to get your piratey-fix.

    On its face, Sea of Thieves sounds like a lot of fun. Travel the high seas with some friends, engage in naval combat, and plunder to your heart's content. There are moments when this vision acts itself out in fantastic ways, but that's all it is. Just moments.

Travel the high seas with some friends, engage in naval combat, and plunder to your heart's content. There are moments when this vision acts itself out in fantastic ways, but that's all it is. Just moments.

    Rare has created a relatively beautiful world that is devoid of life. The game hinges on player's imagination and creating their own path, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. There have been many games that rely on the player's ability to create their own story.

    Yet, with Sea of Thieves, everything feels empty. The only NPCs are quest givers, who are one-dimensional, and poorly crafted skeleton enemies. The enemies lack any creativity or thought. They are merely a stand-in obstacle for players to pass through. The enemies themselves don't amount to a challenge, until Sea of Thieves' clunky, outdated, and overall poor land combat kicks in.

    The land combat is not only dull and clunky, but downright bad. It feels more akin to a chore rather than a rewarding challenge as you try to secure your treasure.

    For a game touted as an open sandbox, it seems Rare built the sandbox but forgot the sand. There are three factions with three "different" quest types, but each amounts to fetching a chest, skull, or animals and returning them to the quest giver. There are skeleton forts to clear, but when melee combat feels like players are using low-level characters from Morrowind, the excitement from facing down a horde of enemies is completely destroyed.

    This leaves just fetch quests. The quests are nothing more than radiant questlines that have popped up in AAA RPGs: Go to x, find Y, return. Of course, as a game centering on pirating, there are treasure maps and riddles to solve, but the enjoyment is once again diluted thanks to the previously mentioned skeletons. Once again, fighting enemies should feeling challenging and rewarding, rather than an annoyance. It seems Rare threw the skeletons in because they knew not having mobs was creating too easy of an experience, so they hastily threw something together and here we are.

    In a game where cosmetic customization was touted over a more traditional progression system, cosmetic customization is severely lacking. I was extremely excited when I learned SoT would enter around cosmetics, rather than unlocking higher grade hulls or weapons. It should have been a fresh breath of air. Instead, the customization is barebones and lacking. Currently, there are only three items on ships that players can customize. Players cannot create anything truly unique. In a sandbox game. A sandbox game that touted cosmetic customization as the driving force behind its rewards. Player customization is also severely lacking. Players are limited to just a few clothing and hair options.

    Sea of Thieves is everything the gaming community has hated about recent release in one concise package. Lack of customization, bad AI, an empty world, bad combat, and fetch quests.

    The promise of "more content to come" cannot be the excuse developers turn to when they push out games that are half-finished, but that is precisely what Rare has done. It is not a promise of "Free DLC," but rather a promise of content that should have been in the game from its awkward and mostly broken launch.

    Let's get to the exciting parts, where Sea of Thieves really shows its value. NAVAL COMBAT.

    For a game built around PvP, SoT gets it right in isolated instances. Ship-to-ship combat is some of the most fun players can have. There's not much more exciting than sinking or looting an enemy ship, while on the flip side the feeling of loss as you abandon your sinking ship and its content is heavy. This is where SoT shines. The naval combat is fun, especially when your crew is coordinating together as you blast holes in the sides of enemy ships or frantically try to scoop water out of your hold as you try to keep your ship together.

    However, finding the instance of ship-to-ship combat is few and far between. Players are more likely to have their ship destroyed while they are turning in their fetch quests, or are on shore looking for treasure, than having their ship sunk as a result of ship-to-ship combat. There is no punishment for griefers who camp outposts (killing players near the quest givers as they try to turn in treasure, sinking empty docked ships) or spawn camp.

    In a game that relies so heavily on the sense of accomplishment from PvP, the feeling is completely ruined by players who have decided to take the easy way out.

    The game's "Pirate Code" does nothing to deter players who endless grief and troll, for no purpose other than to ruin the experience of other players. Rare is trusting players to self-police and it is already clear, players cannot be counted on to do so.

    This game is just far too expensive for what you get. It feels incomplete and quickly gets boring. The quests are repetitive and the sailing is tedious.

    I was excited that XBox was finally going to have a good exclusive game, but Sea of Thieves falls way short.

    Honestly, I have very little nice things to say about the game. It's pretty. The animation is cute, but come on, is that really enough to make this a "good game"? No. Don't buy it. It's an unfinished product and Rare should not be commended for that. Avoid the game at least until they provide more content.    … Expand

The sea travel is boring once you have done it once and you just end up going from one island to another doing the same mission over and over. The rewards are bad too, its all cosmetic.

    Sea of Thieves has extremely basic combat, very few weapons, no upgrades to your gear or your ship, very little content, extremely little choice in playstyles and generally nothing to do in it. Very disappointing, people are so bored that griefing others is the only way to entertain yourself.

The game was seemingly shipped devoid of any useful content. Full of fetch quests and boring, repetitive environments, this games best moments are at the start of the game when you’re first learning how to sail properly with your friends, shooting each other out of the cannons, winning your first PVP ship battle, or just simply drinking beer in the inn.

    When the novelty of these “firsts” wears off though, you’re left $60-100 down with an empty shell of a game that has nothing for you to do but collect cosmetics, do chores, or fart around. You could easily call this game “No Mans Sky: Water Edition” and it would be almost entirely accurate. Both shipped incomplete at FULL retail price when they should have cost $30, both have absolutely nothing exciting to do, and the combat for both games (a noteworthy portion of them) is clunky and unfun.

    It’s time to stop rewarding game developers for creating poor, unfinished experiences and time to start demanding more for our money. I had the luxury of playing Sea of Thieves through Xbox’s game pass, but many people spent their hard earned money on this, and that’s a tragedy in itself. No more pre-ordering, no more excuses, no more waiting 6-12 months for them to so “generously” add the rest of the game you paid for. Take a stand.    … Expand

    We have nothing but respect for Rare's vision with Sea of Thieves, but it is a game as likely to chew you up and spit you out, as it is to embrace you. If the wind is in your favour then it can be a delight, but a storm is never far off if you lose momentum. The real test of the quality and efficacy of Rare's plan will be in how it manages to evolve and grow in the weeks and months to come. [Issue#199, p.67]
