Any Pirates out there? (Sea of Thieves)
I've been really enjoying Sea of Thieves lately, and I'm pretty enthusiastic about the new update coming on Tuesday. Anyone else feeling the same?
I've only got a couple people who I play with from time to time, so if anyone would like to crew up, just add me. My Xbox tag is the same as my Tildes username.
I'm really interested, but right now don't think the game has the amount of content I want out of it. I'm going to wait and hope it gets what I would like, because the concept of the game is something I can really dig.
I have the same apprehension. I'm really hoping to pick it up on a sale because I've still heard great things about it, and the concept intrigues me.
Yeah it's definitely unique in its way of delivering content. Because it's styled as an MMO, people expect progression and more... tangible content. But it seems to be more geared toward giving you a case-by-case basis experience, since so much of how you play is based on the other players, and their actions will drastically affect what happens while you're playing.
Obviously that's not for everyone, but it's certainly a one-of-a-kind game.
I've been playing since the beta. It's a great sandbox for adventure and having fun in unique, unforseen ways.
I'll look you up this weekend if I'm crewing up.
Sounds good!
Thought you were talking about pirates as in the pirate bay lol.
I have to ask since this game has received alot of negative reviews and comments around the net. How's the content coming? Is there more or is the game still generally empty?
It's never been empty. It's just not what some people expect it to be. The negative reviews come from people who wanted vertical progression, upgrades, quests, etc. But instead they got a world full of adventure you actually have to go seek out yourself, with enough freedom to feel empty when you're used to guidelines and structure.
It's not for everyone, obviously, but a lot of people seem to enjoy it.
