    I will start by saying I do like the graphics on this game however the game as a whole is boring. You get a mission, go to an island and complete the same task as you have done 20 times already before sailing back to an outpost to hand it in. Absolutely no variety in this game. There are no tactical sea fights as you only have one option ... fire a canon ball in their direction to destroyI will start by saying I do like the graphics on this game however the game as a whole is boring.

There are no tactical sea fights as you only have one option ... fire a canon ball in their direction to destroy their ship, only to board their ship and steal more cannon balls. Even when you jump on an enemy ship to engage in gun fight its boring. You have 1 pistol and a sword which you just need to spam left mouse button to be effective. This game feels like it just put all the basics of a game together but not actually tried to make it fun and challenging. They have not tried to do anything different or even better. I would suggest using the xbox pass 14 day free trial to confirm this before buying.… Expand

    I just loved the game in my first gameplay! The game is really ambicious. And c'mon, the most of comments here is from fanboys, there's a lot of empty argumments, it's really sad because we need good games like this and they can't see what kind of cancer they are. So, let's stop with console war and play the games.

    Very repetitive game, and with a very high price, I did not like it. It seemed to be cooler before, but it has not changed much from the beta as well, plus the PC version is giving a lot of trouble.

    I enjoyed Sea of Thieves for about the first hour before I realised nothing almost nothing had changed from early footage of the game. On the second to third hour, my enjoyment sank like a stone.

    While the game is beautiful - and sailing around can be quite relaxing, it's also incredibly tedious. The world is empty. A litany of small, uninteresting islands exist where you might find chickens, pigs, snakes, or skeletons that present no real challenge when it comes to getting in the way of your 17th fetch quest.

    Battling other real players is slightly more interesting, but even that feels dull and anticlimactic.

    The only benefit here is the game is "free" on Xbox Game Pass. It may be worth a try or an occasional dip in if you want to casually drift around aimlessly for 90% of your gaming session. You certainly don't want to pay full retail price for this - a game which feels very much like a beautiful looking free-to-play title.    … Expand

Launch Day for SOT was absolutely god awful, the servers got so flooded Rare barred new players from joining, and after 3 stress tests over the past month it is unacceptable that launch day was literally unplayable. Some would blame the Xbox Gamepass for the flooded servers, and being that this is the first major Xbox Exclusive to launch as part of gamepass it is very possible they underestimated the amount of people who saved up their two week free trial for Sea of Thieves.

    As a kid I played Pirates of The Caribbean Online with my friends and we heavily enjoyed our pirate adventures and I am happy to say Sea of Thieves scratches the pirate itch I've had for years. The graphics mostly the water, are absolutely stunning, my only complaint is the in my opinion, awful looking characters in most cases. For a game based on being YOUR own pirate it is kind of odd that you are stuck with a wonky random character generator, I myself spent 47 minutes trying to find the perfect character model only to not be able to connect to the servers on launch day.

    The gameplay is fun solo or with a team as you learn to work together and operate smoothly in combat and how to pull maneuvers like a dogleg to gain an edge in ship battles. At release the game has only a few things the betas didn't, the kraken and certain factions to trade for. I myself haven't encountered a Kraken yet but rumor has it that it's very disappointing. Chest grinding for sure gets boring and the game can become very repetitive however sailing the seas looking for other pirates to plunder or become friends with is extremely fun. Sea of Thieves is a game that you can play for 12 hours if you wish or just pick it up for an hour or 2 after a long days work. Overall the game is good and has great potential but if Rare does not get some fresh content out soon the game will tank.    … Expand

Now, don’t let the comparison to the lousy open-world title from two years ago scare you away - this game is much better. But, the game does have its shortcomings. An overall lack of content at launch is proving to be quite disappointing, as nothing has changed much in terms of the game’s structure since the multiple betas released over the past year. The game is pretty simple; board your ship, steal some treasure, and return said treasure to your homeland. That may sound enjoyable, but for a full-priced $60 game, that’s not enough to satisfy anyone’s hard earned money. Playing with friends is fun, and there is plenty of opportunity for a role-playing style of gameplay, but playing by yourself can get pretty boring. The visual style is impressive, though, and the open-world feel is quite immersive. The mechanics feel natural and not at all clunky, and the experience the game brings when interacting with other players is pretty satisfying. But, with not much to offer at launch, Sea of Thieves is a game best to be bought in the coming months - once more content is released. There is an incredible amount of potential here, and hopefully Rare takes advantage of the great foundation they’ve established with Sea of Theives.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Sea of Thieves, its a masterpiece. If you don't know, there are 3 factions or merchants or mission types: Gold Hoarders, you find a treasure and you sell it, Order of Souls, you kill an amount of skeletons and a capitain then you sell the capitain's head, and Merchant Sailor, you found resources or animals, and you sell them. And that's it. With the gold you obtain, you can buy more missions, and cosmetics for EVERYTHING. You increase levels on each factions, when you reach 50/50/50 you will become a Pirate legend. And you will ask, why its a master piece if its only that? Because its not that all, there are Skeleton forts with some treasures, there ere other pirates to fight with them, and there is a kraken to beat or to be beaten by him. And also there is time to sink your ship.
    Obviously this game needs more content, and it has bugs. but right now its fun, and thats it porpouse.

Esse jogo é totalmente hypado, só tem um mapa, e é 100% Online, ou seja, se você tiver sem internet na hora de jogar, você vai fica chupando o dedo. Não recomendo esse jogo pra ninguém, esperem pelo State of Decay 2, porque Sea of Thieves é uma bela de uma porcaria.

    I did try running solo, but that only gets you so far. This game is made to be played with two or more players. Take a lot of communication and teamwork to manage the ship and to get from one destination to another.

    At first, the game can be pretty overwhelming. There's not much guidance on how to start the game and what you need to do to start some Voyages. You're thrown into the game and go from there on your own.

    This game is not for everyone. If you're the type of player that likes to play solo, this may not be for you. If you game with a set of friends, then SoT is definitely for you and your friends.    … 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]
