Animated and Lit Supplies

  • I was just thinking that with the Xbox Series X, we're going to get a whole host of improvements to Sea of Thieves, such as shorter load times, better overall rendering, resolution, etc.

    You see I was sailing with a friend, and I was taking stock of our supplies - specifically our CCBs. As cool as they appear in your hand, they're rather static when viewed from a menu like in your inventory or a barrel. What if, to emphasize the power and fidelity of the Xbox Series X, your supplies and other items were animated and/or lit up? This would be particularly nice with the new wraith and phantomballs, I think.

    I think it would be kind of a nice subtle touch that won't affect gameplay for older console owners.

  • When it comes to the game being optimized for Xbox series X its improvements will (I assume) be similar to the pc version of the game such as better graphics, frame rates, and the load times with the custom SSD without much/any change to the main game itself. Since the cursed cannonballs do already partially glow I am pretty sure those enhanced graphics will add that extra detail.

  • @l-snapper-l I just don't like that they're static images. With the extra processing power, I'm sure they could easily be animated with better lighting.

    The only real question is would doing so become visually distracting or otherwise be too much?

    What? Why? No. It'd just be like it is as it's being held in your hand, but in the menus.
