So i though about maybe getting this Game for about one Week now. There are quite many arguments not to get it, or at least not yet, but also many to do so.

Most Arguments i hear about "Sea of Thieves" are, but probably aren´t limited too:

Positive:

  • Looks really great and the Design is pleasing for the Eye.
  • The best Wateranimations to date.
  • Lots of fun from the Social Experiences in 4 Man Crews.
  • Actual on point Pirate Feeling.
  • Good Base for (and Promises to make) Expansions of Content, Events or Changes.
  • Expansions will be free (This Point isn´t based on Proof tho)

Negative:

  • Almost complitly empty of Content at the moment , making it another uncomplete Game (This is a mayor flaw for all reviews.)
  • Solo and Duo Experience suffers a lot of Fun and Success compared to 4 Man Crews,
  • Most Fun comes from Social-based Moments. Whilst that doesnt sound that bad, it is once you go Solo or the Crew is just not fun to interact with eachother.
  • Excitement reachs its low mostly after max. 1 Day.
  • Mechanics Ingame become boring fast.
  • A ridicouless Price with 70€ (at least here in Germany)

So im really struggling to make a Decition to test this Game, since it Really sounds great, but judging by all the hours i spend searching what you actually do whilst finding nothing, at least the Content Point seems to be right. Also so far I will probably play Solo or with a Duo Partner, and that is said to really be bad Funwise compared to 4 man Crews. I probably also dont need to say 70€ is a ridicouless Price judging from the Reviews. I really dont want to spend so much Money on something that lasts as short as the Reviews say, but maybe the Reviews i read where mostly negative and the positive Reviewers are momentary having the Time of their Life and haven´t openly written anything for others to read.

I would really appreciate a Hand making a Decition here.

I've been having a lot of fun with the game, but that's mainly because I play with friends who make it a lot more interesting and we only really play an hour or two every few days.

If you're just going to be playing solo/with randoms don't bother
