  • Abstract:  Have you been paying attention to Sea of Thieves ? It's a pirate simulator from Rare. Though, from what I played at E3, it's primarily a constant fight of ship against ship. Players work together with a team of up to five in an attempt to take on any othe...

  • Abstract:  In the three years since Sea of Thieves ' unveiling, I've been cautiously optimistic. On the one hand a light-hearted pirate adventure on the open seas sounds fantastic, but on the other hand shared-world competitive experiences that all but require you t...

  • As a multiplayer experience, Sea of Thieves has something to offer. It's filled with interesting systems that can sometimes create emergent stories, situations, conflicts and - when the stars align - a tangible and unpredictable sort-of fun. It's also got...

  • Great evocation of pirate life, Looks superb, Throws up memorable scenarios, Feels truly original
  • No fun solo, Variable when played with random people, Quests become samey, Desperately needs to acquire extra content
  • You have to admire Rare Software for the way in which, with Sea of Thieves, it has taken a risky approach to create a gameplay experience which feels fresh and unique. Sea of Thieves might just be the first game to nail the knotty conundrum of providing t...

  • Gorgeous and inviting world, Uniquely fun and low-key multiplayer space, Embodies universal pirate fantasy, Encourages teamwork, play, and adventure
  • Half-baked social controls, Buggy launch
  • Yes, if you are excited by the fantasy that the game presents, and especially if you have friends that are also willing to play with you, then Sea of Thieves is a rewarding and lovingly-made experience. People on the fence will likely want to wait several...

  Published: 2018-03-26, Author: Jake , review by: Bit-Tech.net

  • Abstract:  Rare's piratical adventure does a lot to present a joyous world, but unlike the shark-infested waters you'll explore within the game, it's shallow and offers only a vapid experience, good for getting vomit tossed in your face after your crewmates have one...
