I tried this game about a year ago and it just didn't click, mostly because I had no idea what I was doing
this past weekend I decided to give it a serious try this time and actually seek out other players to show me the ropes. took like 10 seconds to find a full party willing to teach me the game using the xbox LFG feature and I gotta say, this game is fucking great.
for those of you who were like me and tried this and gave up due to the learning curve and difficulty playing alone, I strongly recommend trying to find other players. the community is surprisingly pleasant. I've already met some really cool people who are around my age (late 30s) which is great.
if you get a good group of people to play with, this game is absurdly fun. you can really do whatever the fuck you want and it counts towards progression. micro transactions are purely cosmetic so everyone is on an even playing field.
I probably haven't had this much fun in an online game since D2: LOD came out. the game is super chill as there is often a lot of downtime where you can just fuck around. I'm doing a terrible job of explaining why this game is great but I recommend giving it a go, especially if you have gamepass.
on a side note, the game looks great on a XSX. running 100 FOV at 120hz and the game looks and runs flawlessly.
I spent the last 2 days doing the pirates life tall tales and they are incredibly well done. the story missions I've encountered so far in this game are just fantastic.
I'm big into fishing IRL and love being on boats. I also love everything pirate related and this game scratches an itch I never knew I had.
this game is taking up pretty much 100% of my attention and I couldn't be happier.
