The press days of Gamescom have come to an end yesterday, and for now we only shared a fraction of the many, many games we saw. With only two public days left, it’s time to name our winners for the show.

Still a bit angry that I couldnt play the game at gamescom.The damn line had a 2 hour wait!

Hopefully the beta gets released this year. Get the hype going.

Nice to know it's fun to play. Watching it seems pretty shit, at least from the footage I've seen.

Going to be another NMS......a lot are going to hate it, some will like it

No, because this game should get good reviews and most people who played it actually think it's fun.

Sounds good. The game really looks interesting.

Congratulations to rare.

Nope.

The difference between No Man's Sky and this is that the developers of No Man's Sky lied about certain features in the game and purposely mislead people, just like how at one of their demo's Sean Murray said it was completely unscripted and that this would all happen randomly generated for him, but then it was revealed to be completely scripted and planned. 

Where as with Sea of Thieves the developers aren't trying to be purposely vague about any features in the game and are just letting the public play it for themselves. 

Well, in this case at least people could actually play it. I also don't see why Rare would lie about that game because it would already be apparent if they lied.
