    Done!!!

    A mystery to me why SoT was not nominated for best visual design. By far one the best environments I have seen in a while, I think that what keeps me coming back, the pleasant environment and visual design.

    @friedwilly I know! They have such an amazing design team I can’t believe it

    @knifelife Agreed, if they would have been nominated for only one award my first thought would have been visual design as that is the first thing you are amazed and impressed with. The way they make the game feel like a cartoon, but at the same time feel like reality is stunning. When you play the game you get immersed into the game largely because of the graphic presentation.

    Hmmm, indeed , not including Sea of Thieves in the category for best visual design makes you wonder about the intelligence of those people that make these polls...i don't think i have ever played a game that can make me daydream while playing...If you ask my Friends how many times i have wrecked their ship because the movement and grandeur of Sea and Sky had me hypnotized by it's beauty , then you would fear to put me behind the wheel ,if you would see me in your random crew...

    i really hope that Rare falls into the prizes , they are all very Good people by Heart and share a common personal possession, wich is briljant minds...

    i have never played a game , every night , because of the beauty , the music and most importantly , because being in the shadows of my Friends simply makes me happy and on my ease that i hear their voices...
    This game has so many layers and if gaming get's more acknoledgement , then i see this game even used to make people's profile....This game digs up your inner personality in a few hours time and shows the real you to others....
    If one pshycologist sees or play this game then he or she will understand that this game is a Godsgift in order to pinpoint the inner being of the person he needs to screen or heal...

    Sea of Thieves is much more than a game...i am a dumb ,simple man , but this game keeps me amazing on how deep and varied this whole setting is...

    Best Game of 2018? Even if it doesn't get this title , it is the Best Game Ever that i played , that's my thinking and i really don't care if you call me crazy or bias , you don't have to agree with me , it doesn't matter , my mind is free and determined on this choice...

    Not one game has enriched my life the way Sea of Thieves did...Prove? , You want prove? No worries , i have never travelled one mile in order to see gamer friends before , but the Friends of this game, for them i would travel around the World , if...i don't have to use an airplane because i'm terrified of those Steel Birds...

    @friedwilly Because the clear winner for that category is going to be GoW most likely.

    Sea of Thieves has such a unique design element and pallet. I wonder if the catergory is more for the realistic graphics rather than animated?

    Dunno if that makes sense aha

    I threw in my votes. If anything, I think they should win the award for audio design. But I threw in my vote for SoT in every category it was available. Good luck, Rare!

    This game could win the "Best Pirate Game of 2018" award, but that's about it.
