Re: Sea of Thieves - I've been playing it a fair amount. It is definitely not a game for everyone. Mostly it is a grind just for the sake of grind. It's a bit of a sailing simulator, in that you have to raise/lower/trim sails to catch wind, navigate with a map and compass, and so on and so forth. There's no mini map, there's no auto pilot. You could put in an hour of gathering loot just to have another player come sink your ship and steal it before you get to turn it in.
That's mostly the negatives of the game. Solo it gets boring fairly quickly, but with friends it's a lot of fun to sail, tackle skull forts or go cause grief for other players. Captured a few clips for
@nodle. the SoT ones are pretty large. Note I've been playing from PC with friends that are on Xbox, so these aren't 4K clips, just 2K - but higher FPS
