<![CDATA[Sensitivity settings need a rework]]>

I play a lot of games, especially competitive ones, and like many players, I play with a low sensitivity. I noticed that on Sea of Thieves, I can't find my usual sensitivity. The settings aren't precise enough and don't offer enough options, especially because you can only increase or decrease it by 0.1, and the minimum is set to 1.
​It would therefore be better to rework the sensitivity settings, for example by allowing players to change it by steps of 0.01 and lowering the minimum below 1 all the way down to 0.01, so that every player can find their exact sensitivity in Sea of Thieves.
​Also, a quick point about the spyglass sensitivity: it is way too low, especially since we can't adjust it. I find that really unfortunate because it's difficult—especially when playing with low sensitivity—to look closely at a specific spot with the spyglass due to the movement of the waves.
​I hope this feedback will be useful and taken into account, because in my opinion, sensitivity is very important, especially since every player has their own preference.

A long time ago there was a Spyglass sensitivity slider in one of the Insider builds, then it disappeared and was never mentioned again. No idea why they didn't keep it.

Well, if you think that, it means you hasn't discovered the whole game. However, I wasn't saying that SoT is a competitive game; it has a PvE part, a Story mode, and a competitive part, like the Hourglass. In any case, whether you see the competitive side or not, my sensitivity is low and it's not fun to play with a sensitivity that is too different from what you're used to. All I did was suggest an improvement to these settings—it's not the impossible that I'm asking for, it's actually super simple and quick. And it will allow the game to suit more players. Sensitivity is annoying whether it's in a competitive mode or not.

If you don't have this problem, good for you, but in that case, don't dismiss my request, which is perfectly reasonable and will help players.
