This game is Sea Of Thieves

Wonderful game. It was my Lockdown game where me and my mates would just meet up and do whatever. The boat was our social hub and it was a great game to play in the background while just having a good time.

I bought a copy for a few of my friends just to get them in on it. I’m sad i never got into it until after lockdown when we all had more free time

Such a fun game… Maybe I’ll fire it up this weekend. Shame none of my friends will play it with me…

Still has some of the most beautiful water graphics I’ve ever seen in a game.

It’s a fun game when I don’t encounter anyone, but I spend most of my time just outrunning other players trying to kill me for almost no loot

They’ve added a feature called safer seas that removes PvP, Safer Seas.

That’s the game. It’s the most emotionally compelling stealth game I’ve ever played. The tension is real.

They managed to make a game about piracy where the players actually care about the stakes.

I think that’s the game for you. My friends and I like to hang out, search for treasure, solve puzzles, and work together to bring down ghost ships. We don’t have any interest in sinking a real players ship, or running from a group of teenagers shouting slurs at us while they try to sink ours.

If you don’t want to play on the PvE-only servers, you can always go to the lower east corner of the map, with all the volcano islands. I almost never encounter people around there.

Or you could play late night-early morning, when less people are awake in your region.

I love rating a game’s water graphics. Sea of Thieves especially can be really gorgeous

I really do enjoy Sea of Thieves. The arcadey gameplay of it means you can just hit up the high seas whenever you’re feeling that particular pirate itch, go on some adventures (depth of which varies on your preference), maybe fish a little bit, cook some food and just have a general good time.

It looks really nice, too.

I agree, It’s really easy to have fun just wandering around with friends. I especially really enjoy bumping into Sea Forts and Skeleton Ships (though all my friends have an aversion to risk and adventure).

The graphics pair really nicely with the OST too. Really makes you feel like a pirate on the sea

Was it you who posted rotated screenshots of Murderess from Xenoblade X back on Reddit?

Sadly Xenoblade is still in my Backlog of games too and play. It must have been someone else
