but the "massively" in MMO is not related to the size of the "world" it's related to the amount of players ("massively multiplayer") and used when there are atleast hundreds of players on the same server able to interact with each other

at 53 reviews I think it's safe to assume it'll end anywhere in the 68-71 range, which is fair from what I've played.

With the amount of caffeine I consume my heart is bound to give out sooner or later, but for now I am still here

@Hynad

I am in the Discord server, will make more of an effort to be engaged haha

you're a curse :-O

Eesh. 68 now eh?

This not so hot score aside, I'm very curious to see what this game's mid-to-long term sales will be. That, along with it's *sigh*....engagement. Gonna throw some sugar on this. Coat it if you will: I am, to say the least, very leery of GAS game models, and the potential for fuckery that comes along with them.

Considering the game is #143 on Amazon, I doubt the legs are going to be great. Maybe when it hits $30 and they have actually added a lot more content it will improve. 

Yea, if this what MS's plan is for GAAS, I hope it doesn't catch on. Releasing games in beta form, promising to make them better later. 

The beauty about Rare and SOTs is they have created a game with so much future potential. I am suprised you are still in here commenting about a game you will never play or own. It must interests you to receive this kind if dedication.

MS has other games with strong GaaS elements like Halo 5, GoW, and Forza. It’s not as if SoT is their first GaaS attempt lol.

Calling two games like Halo 5 and GoW, both shipping with a multiplayer option and a full single player campaign option, GaaS is a stretch.  I can buy Halo 5, or GoW, play the campaign and never have to buy anything else later and feel like I came away with a complete experience.  Whether or not  I liked that complete experience is another story.  You are basically saying any game that has DLC has strong GaaS elements.. which simply isn't true.

Sea of Thieves, like Street Fighter V before it, shipped as a game that feels VERY incomplete.  When SFV dropped it was "where is the story mode" and "where are these features" and SFV, a GaaS type, was rightfully raked over coals for its slow roll out.  Fast forward to now and the game is doing alright I would say.

Sea of Thieves is the same thing.  MS is asking people to spend 60 bucks on a game that after a few hours becomes repetitive.  Whether you like the repetition or not is subjective, but the game is severely lacking and not worth 60 bucks right now, just like SFV largely wasn't at launch.  IF there is enough of a player base left to warrant building on for SoT in 3 years, maybe we will look at it like we do SFV today.

It dropped down to 68? damn.

People where calling me out in this thread, and I predicted a 74.
#151 on amazon.... still has 14k viewers on twitch though (so theres still some popularity to it).
