Run Your Own Ship
5 Ways Sea of Thieves Is the Best Pirate Sim Ever
We’re not so sure we could actually sail. Where does one even begin with all that rigging? Sea of Thieves makes things simple, but not so simple that it doesn’t require a heck of an amount of coordination between you are your crew to actually sail a Galleon. But it’s such great fun. Trust us when we say that there might be plenty of games that require communication and teamwork, but there’s nothing quite like Sea of Thieves. Steering, dropping anchor, turning about, loading cannons, repairing damage to the hull, and preparing to board are commands you’ll find you and your buddies shouting over the mic, half in panic, half in hysterics.
Even with as little as four players on a Galleon, there’s this wonderful communal sense of excitement and adventure that few games manage to achieve. In experiences like this, you get so incredibly immersed you can’t help but start playing the part, shouting about loading cannons and adjusting sail directions.
