4/5 ★ – Just_Deli's review of Sea of Thieves.

When Xbox announced Sea of Thieves I was amazed and was really hoping this game was going to be great. Sailing the seas with your pirate friends sounds so cool. It came out and reviews weren’t great and it kind of just got forgotten. But you got to love a comeback story. There is a handful of big games that were set up to be pretty crazy games and fell flat on launch. No Man’s Sky is the biggest example. Sea of Thieves was right there with them. But they worked on their game and over time it has now become one of Xbox’s big games that are played by hundreds of thousands every day. So cut away to e3 Xbox announcing the Pirates of the Caribbean update for Sea of Thieves and so then I knew I needed to play. The first couple of days I played I basically spent just learning the game a bit and doing some random missions and getting sunk by other players. Then one Friday morning I got on and met a guy who had been playing since the game came out. He taught me a whole lot about the game and showed me a ton of things I had never even known about. That opened the door for me to play a ton trying to level up my pirate and get better at ship fights and killing the megalodon and fighting bosses. Then the Pirates of the Caribbean update came out and it was like an interactive pirate ride at Disney world but in the game and it was fantastic. I highly recommend trying this game out and understand it is a very special type of game that no other game has come close to what this game feels like.
