DO NOT BUY!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This game is an absolute waste for $60. Look into the Xbox game pass it’s only $10 a month and you’ll be done with this game before a month is up trust me. There’s barely any content at all.

Blah
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wouldn’t recommend this game without having a group of friends to play with. Seems to be the only reward for spending time in this game is purely cosmetic. Too expensive for what it offers - should be $30

Don't buy to play by yourself
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It isn't that the game is bad. You HAVE to have a team of 4. You will die if you okay by yourself or just with one other person. It's not fun that way.

Posted .Ahoy there,
We're sorry to hear that a pirate's life isn't quite for you yet in Sea of Thieves. A crew of your best mateys will definitely help make the game more enjoyable, though. If your regular crew is ever unable to join you, you could always look into joining a Sea of Thieves Club or using the Looking for Group function on Xbox or in the Xbox App.

Lacks content

Team-Based Gaming
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’m not a fan of games that you constantly need a realible team of people to play with. This is real life. It’s just hard to successfully play this game in my opinion.

Sorry to hear that a pirate's life isn't for you yet in Sea of Thieves. While it's definitely possible to sail solo, the best experience is playing co-op with up to three other mateys. Luckily, there are options for finding some extra hands, such as Xbox Clubs and the Looking for Group feature available on Xbox and in the Xbox App!

Boring
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Non-guides free world team based game. Mostly seems pointless and your experience solely depends on other players Skill set and agenda.

Posted .Ahoy Kevin,
We're sorry that a pirate's life isn't quite for you yet. We definitely recommend finding some mates to share the seas with!
You may have a pretty good crew to set sail with, but there are other options for finding some extra hands. In addition to the in-game matchmaking system, there are Xbox Clubs and the Looking for Group feature available on Xbox and in the Xbox App!

Good game for kids
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this game hoping for a lot more action and adventure. I was really disappointed in the actual game play, it is very slow.

Total waste of money..
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This game is really boring! Took forever to actually get the game to load and it was a huge let down. Wish I could get my $$$ back. Even though it gives you the option to sail alone it doesn’t work... think I’m going to invest in Gamefly again so I don’t have this issue with a game being hyped up and turning into a huge disappointment..

We're sorry to hear that you're not having a good time sailing the seven seas in Sea of Thieves.
If going solo isn't working out for you, there are some options for putting together a crew. There is 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!

Posted .Ahoy there,
Since you've pre-ordered the game, you might as well try it out! Plenty of landlubbers have taken to the high seas in Sea of Thieves and are having a swashbuckling good time. Join up with a few mateys and you'll soon discover why a pirate's life may be for you.
