Sea Of Thieves
''Sea of Thieves'' is a 2018 action-adventure game developed by Rare and published by Xbox Game Studios. The player assumes the role of a pirate who completes voyages from different trading companies. The multiplayer game sees players explore an open world via a pirate ship from a first-person perspective. Players may encounter each other during their adventures, sometimes forming alliances, and sometimes going head-to-head. The concept of ''Sea of Thieves'' was conceived in 2014. Rare was inspired by players of PC games such as '' Eve Online'' (2003), '' DayZ'' (2018), and ''Rust'' (2018), who used the game tools to create their own stories. Rare explored different settings, such as vampires and dinosaurs, before settling on a pirate theme inspired by the ''Pirates of the Caribbean'' films and ''The Goonies'' (1985). The game features a progression system that only unlocks cosmetic items as the development team wanted to encourage both casual and experienced players to play t ...
