    Absolutely no content to this game. You will do the same 3 missions over and over, to which there is no point. Any gold you get for doing these same 3 missions does not benefit you in any way as the only purchasable items are just skins for items you already have and do not upgrade nor will they ever. The good news is that the water looks great. I hope the water guy goes on to do great things in his career. (I suspect he also made the night sky because that is real nice too).

      Hey there,

      We're sorry that a pirate's life isn't for you yet in Sea of Thieves. You may be happy to know that the game's developers are listening to feedback from players such as yourself, and are working hard to implement new features and content.

    My son begged for this for Christmas, I was unsure if he would have the ability level to enjoy it and not get frustrated. As soon as he started playing he had no problems.

    My son seems to enjoy this game a lot. He says there is nothing bad about it. He gets excited for new updates. It is an online game so you do have to always play with real people.

    Myself, My son (13) and my wife all play. Great interactive game. So far if the 6 year old over hears/see's it I don't have to be worried about too much violence or gore

    This game is amazing to play with friends but the Xbox doesn't push out good enough frames in my opinion. I bought it on PC and can't go back to xbox.

    The game isn’t exactly what I was expecting. I was hoping I would be able to pirate around by myself and have my own crew to tell what to do not have to team up with a bunch of random people on the internet that I don’t know. It’s just ok.

    I had fun for a couple nights playing with a full crew but got bored pretty quick. World looks great but controls feel slow and dated and there isn't a lot of content to keep you busy.

    Bought this thinking it was going to be more of an RPG like a toned down skyrim, but it's more like Fortnight with pirates.

    Final fantasy 7 in my opionion was the greatest game ever. Thi could be the closest thing I’ve found to compare and I’ve played my fair share of games.

    An interesting game......that has plenty of room to grow.....a bit limited and redundant at times, however, sailing on the open sea is incredible....and beautiful...the water graphics and physics are absolutely remarkable.

    You need to work with people in this game. Others don't get that, and will leave members of the group behind. Also people start the game/group and drop out leaving you to play along. It just not as fun as it could be.

    I was really looking forward to playing sea of thieves and it was quite exciting to play for the first few hours. But it soon became tedious to sail, especially when nobody has a microphone in a cooperative game. There isn’t really an incentive for leveling up and obtaining wealth. Only visual upgrades are available. I was expecting more of an AC: Black Flag type of situation with the upgrades. Also, there are many griefers in the game that just want to harass people.

    I have been craving a good pirate game since back in the day when I could play "Pirates" on the commodore 64 and the Sega Genesis. This was not the game for me. Hoping Skulls and Bones will be better.
