Grounded going multiplat would be cool. This game deserves more players and more credit. I hope they are able to port it to Switch, I feel it could get more appreciation on Switch than on PS, there it would be seen as a cheap small game. |
Agreed. Grounded has been a big success but I feel like it may be close to its winding down point, however the team has said they want to keep working on it, I still think there's so many ideas they could put into the game but it would require a lot more resources and money, it may not be worth it with the current active player-base but PlayStation/Nintendo could pump a lot more new players into it.
Likewise with Sea of Thieves, it's such a fun game, it has been out for 6 years now, it's had a massive amount of players but it has probably reached saturation point for Xbox in terms of new players, it going fully multiplatform would only be a good thing for the population health and provide yet another huge boost to its player-base, means more support, longer support.
Also in Sea of Thieves case, it might get some re-reviews, Lol.
Pentiment would be nice simply cause it's a tiny passion project from Josh Sawyer.
Having said that, I think a Grounded 2/Sea of Thieves 2 could work in some fashion, maybe similar to Overwatch 2 where there simply updated the base game with a new Overwatch, so for example, Grounded 2 and Sea of Thieves 2 could be ported to Unreal Engine 5 and replace the current client whilst carrying over people's purchases, don't call them "2" though.
Sea of Thieves could be moved to Unreal Engine 5, it could be next to next-gen only, they could expand the world size, add more islands, allow more than 4 ships per world, they could add a new core story, they could add a central hub where players can gather in a non-PVP environment to just have fun together, crews meet up, challenge each other, play games with each other, etc.
The Nassau of Sea of Thieves.
Grounded can be moved to Unreal Engine 5, it could expand to the house and we'll have a big backyard to explore and also an entire house, from the kitchen to the living room, to bedrooms and the basement. Maybe they could think up some PVP modes as well and they could expand the number of players allowed in the world, maybe go from 4 to 8.
