Mini games

Dice etc whether it be gambling could change the rating of the game or may be restricted in some countries. It opens a can of political correctness worms.

A good counter could be board games such as checkers, chess and other brand new games!

@daringclarky No one said there had to be gambling or putting money down, roll the dice whoever has the highest number wins. They have the ship, pvp, deaths counter up, would think they could easily make one for that as well.

On top of that you could use doubloons maybe for different styled dice or cards as well. Would be neat!

Blackjack etc is a gambling game though. There are countries where you cant even enter the casino DLC on gta 5 because it has gambling in it. Its a stupid regulation but it exists.

So as neat as it would be, staying clear of cards and opting for board games or something would be a little easier to circumvent.

Stuff like 5 finger freddy thats on RDR2, Battleships, checkers etc.

Or just add card games and poker and sail in the grey area of that.

Its legal in the uk so whatever I dont care, wont affect my game. But might if you live in a country where gambling is illegal.

Betting or not.

I agree it would be awesome but i think its a little risky given this is rated as a kid friendly game.

@daringclarky What if they were piratey games? such as 'who can go the farthest out of a cannon' or 'who can sword lunge the farthest' or 'who can complete the parkour course the fastest.' Maybe even darts, or shooting games, like target practice. No bets tho.

Yeah definitely.
I think anything that isnt betting or even card games in general it should be fine.

Dont get me wrong, i love Blackjack and poker. But i think given that its primarily a kids game it could have some obstacles.

Really wish we could tho

@daringclarky RDR2 also has black jack? But its not multiplayer available, at least at the time i played it wasn't (needed that 100% completion lol).

Well dice and flipping coins could be viable still? I mean the coin is an emote flip at least haha.... oh well.

Rdr2 also has black jack yes but its also rated an 18 game.

Let me stress this though, im not the one making these regs up lol.

If anything i wish sea of thieves was an 18 game so we dont get as many sqeeky american kids squarking down the mic.

If they wanna add card games they will need to do it smartly such as maybe having an interactable deck of cards or something and letting us basically interact with it and play black jack or poker without it explicitely being a game thats pre made with blackjack etc.

Or they could boost the rating up or something.

Im not 100% sure how it works but a long time ago i posted asking for card games too and that was pretty much the response i got.

I like that idea. I love board games but no one will ever play them with me in real life (apperntly I turn into a sociopathtic slumlord in Monopoly). Anyways if we would add checkers or some made up pirate games that would be fun and maybe virtual strangers would play with me lol.
