That may indeed be why the game found a large following on Twitch for a little while there. On the other hand, if you love a loose framework (a sandbox if you will), to play in and create your own interesting player interactions and stories, Sea of Thieves is the perfect match. If you like rolling through story-driven content and part of the challenge to you and your squad is how fast you can beat things (say you’re a bit competitively tuned), then you will probably be disappointed with Sea of Thieves. Sea of Thieves is a very specific kind of game.

This is a lighthearted game that will be sure to have ye and your crew draining bottles of rum and having lots of fun in no time. So if you’re looking for a game with strategic depth, look elsewhere. Keep in mind, this game does not have an intricate skill tree or large array of weapons, most the upgrades you can get in this game are purely cosmetic. Sea of Thieves may fall under the MMO umbrella, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t make for an awesome cooperative experience. In its current state, we feel confident recommending it as one of the top co-op experiences currently out there. Fortunately, developer Rare steadfastly kept making Sea of Thieves bigger and better.
