    but this isn’t a game I envision playing for any length of time. Only my opinion: Kinda funny at times, looks and sounds pretty good, but not enough in game activity/variety to keep me coming back. Worth a rent to see if it’s your jam-

    The game's graphics are amazing and the game looks like it will have an amazing storyline but getting started is very hard and not clear path on what to do.

    I opened it and then realized the game came with gamepass. Oh well, don’t bother buying if you do the subscription. Gameplay is charming and fun - the open seas are awesome and I like the character classes.

    Rare made an interesting concept that is fun with friends for a while however, there is not much in the game to keep you playing after you've seen everything once. I really like the style of the animation of the game though.

    As long as you understand what this game is going into it—that is, not a MMORPG where you can become the most powerful and face roll everything—and that you truly understand what a sandbox game is (What did we do in sandboxes? Whatever we wanted. We made our own fun with what we had), then this game is amazing. Rare was very transparent about all of this from the beginning and still is, so it should come as no surprise to anyone. If you have any imagination at all and you like to play with friends, this is a game for you. Try it out!

      Ahoy Danny,

      Thanks for recommending Sea of Thieves as the best pirate game ever! We're glad that you've had an amazing time sailing the seven seas with your friends, and agree that it's an experience best shared with others.

      You probably have a pretty good crew to set sail with, but there are other options for finding some extra hands. There is, of course, the in-game matchmaking system, but other options would be Xbox Clubs and the Looking for Group feature available on Xbox and in the Xbox App!
