Hello there guys, I am the youngest brother of 90's kids, I was born in 1998 and much of my childhood I played games such as Banjo Kazooie, Super Mario Bros 3, Battletoads, Donkey Kong, Spyro, Crash Bandicoot, Grabbed by the Ghoulies, Viva Pinata, Traditional Halo and the list can go on and on and on
Those of you who think that Sea Of Thieves must reward players with advantages or stats to progress are not seeing the game for what it is. This game isn't a MMO. Have you actually played an MMO and enjoyed it as much as Sea Of Thieves? MMO's are boring and the actual mechanics of the game are not fun. Sea Of Thieves is fun. The game is made for fun, and some newer games can't wrap their next gen heads around it.
While playing the Final Beta, I pressed tab and saw that the game had my levels for each Trading Company, How many Titles I earned and almost a Platformer like achievement list. Then it hit me, this game has elements from 90's games. It's not about getting a golden gun that does 20k damage in 0.2 seconds or super magical pirate armour that allows you to breathe under water, its about actually enjoying the game, completing tasks for completionists and bragging rights.
"Wow, that type of reward system won't work in today's age, we need buffs to satisfy us"
Well let me tell you one game that came out recently that did have that sort of rewarding system and it won best game of the year, its name is Mario Odyssey
Costumes
Moons
SEA OF THIEVES shares the same rewarding system as Platformers and this is a good thing, this means that the game will succeed if its generally fun! (which it is)
A lot of games today are boring, they are chores, yet people say they are fun and work really hard to get stuff in them, that in the end when they have everything they hate the game and move on. Sea Of Thieves on the other hand has wonderful mechanics with a beautiful world filled with opportunities to explore and play how you want to play!
If you still don't understand the goal of Sea Of Thieves, it is to make goals, it is to collect titles, it is to find secrets, hunt achievements, have a laugh with friends, complete voyages to unlock harder and more challenging voyages and there are the Commendations which are all over, such as handing in 50 Barnacle Chests and Travelling a lot. the goal is to PLAY THE GAME
Stop complaining that Sea Of Thieves needs a stat boost leveling system, play the game, have a laugh, relax, and just play for fun!
