All in all, though, Sea of Thieves players aren't happy about the situation. It comes at a fractious time for the game itself, after a former artist on the title suggested that the devs knew Sea of Thieves was repetitive in nature. With some asking for more from the title, should those disappointed in the Pirate Legend content (and the way that it was reached) make a big enough noise it may cause Rare to give the game some twe

Sea of Thieves launched in March earlier this year and has exceeded Microsoft's expectations. Rare has since run its first major post-launch event, The Hungering Deep, and just yesterday Rare started the first of what it calls "Bilge Rat Adventures," which are smaller scale events that will fill in the weeks between major content releases. Rare's firing on all cylinders, and the studio seems like it's in its best condition in a decade -- it's the perfect time to throw a celebrat

Skeleton Forts are the most challenging PvE scenario currently in Sea of Thieves and not just because there are 10 waves of skeletons to defeat before acquiring the Stronghold Key to open the treasure vault. Inside the Stronghold will be an assortment of chests, trinkets, skulls and valuable merchant goods to redeem at Outposts and the gold value of the collection can range between 10-19 thousand g

Fans of Rare are excitedly awaiting the anniversary of what might be the studio's most iconic franchise, Banjo-Kazooie . Originally launching on Nintendo 64 in 1998, June 29 will mark the 20th anniversary of the hugely popular 3D platforming game. Fans will be absolutely celebrating, but the question is whether Rare will be too, and what the studio has planned. Players of Rare's newest game, Sea of Thieves , think they might have an idea what's in st

Over on the 81st page of an original Sea of Thieves Closed Beta forum thread, the user known as Pelochoman managed to track down images of the terrifyingly elusive beast. The screenshots do a good job of showing just how big the creature is as the tentacles are fairly visible in the distance as well as quite large when the ship is close enough to be attacked. Another screenshot shows the ship being squeezed by the creature, while another tentacle shoots up through the water with what appears to be a spiked mouth of some sort. What isn't detailed in these images, however, is just how massive the entire creature is as only the arms and tentacles can be seen, not the actual body of the be

The best way to earn gold quickly in Sea of Thieves is simply to raid and the game's version of that mission archetype comes in the form of Skeleton Forts . Players will know when these become available and where they are when seeing skull clouds form in the skies with glowing e

For all skeleton encounters, take out the ranged ones first (and focus on skeletons manning cannons if your own ship is within firing range). The easiest strategy game collectibles|Https://strategyreviewer.com/ is to have crew mates lure groups of skeletons near your own ship cannons and even better, to use red gunpowder barrels to one-shot any group of skelet

Of course, there's the main way of completing voyages. Players can carry up to three voyages each so stock up with the faction voyages you're planning to level up in reputation, and to be effective in terms of gold earnings rate, complete all the ones you have and then redeem them all at once. Ultimately, the pace as which your crew earns is in how much risk you're willing to take on. The safest way is the slowest so be a real pirate and step up to the challe

Part of this comes from the goal of becoming a Pirate Legend. The highest title bestowed on Sea of Thieves players, to become a Pirate Legend would-be Blackbeards have to first reach level 50 with all three of the game's Trading Companies. From then on, a fair few extras are unlocked, and the mystery around exactly what Pirate Legends can do has driven players through the g

Gold is everything for a pirate and this holds true in Rare's must-anticipated Xbox exclusive Sea of Thieves . In addition to having a grand old time sailing the high seas with friends, Sea of Thieves is built around its gold economy. Its progression system is solely focused on cosmetics meaning players use gold (very large amounts of it) to upgrade the look of their weapons, gear, costume, and even elements of their s

Stories of the Kraken have existed as far back as E3 2016, but so far Rare has mostly managed to keep it hidden from the public. Alongside the dynamic storms that can hit players at any time , the Kraken is less of a boss and more of a thing in the game that can appear out of nowhere. The first sign of a Kraken is an inky mess in the water, but when and how it strikes is designed to be different each time and highly replayable. Unfortunately for players, it won't be easy as the creature is capable of picking up and tossing players in addition to damaging a ship or completely wrapping it up. Players may even find the destroyed remains of ships as well, presenting an opportunity to loot valuable che
