5 Reasons To Play Sea Of Thieves In 2020
1. The World
Ultimately this is the finest pirate fantasy game ever made. Not since Sid Meir's Pirates has a game picked this setting and gotten it so right.
It's essentially an ocean filled with treasure, thieving pirates, long lost mysteries, mythical creatures and much more all lavishly coated with an aesthetic that's simply enchanting.
The game runs on a parallel with the history books; ultimately, you're playing to get rich and the risks you take will determine if that happens or if you'll be robbed blind and stranded miles from anyone - just like the captains of old.
This believability in the setting and the realism in the sailing mechanics melds amazingly with the cartoon craziness lent by the visuals. It leaves you certain that you're as close to being Blackbeard as you're ever going to get.
