One guy created this amazing water physics This game could be awful lot of fun if it's done right. I mean it lets you team up as pirates, which is the chilhood roleplay of most of us as kids. The cartoony visuals also look fantastic and are the perfect choice for such an environment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justifying them by saying it's just cosmetics is as delusional as it gets. No you also get weapons like daggers, swords and single shot guns like Blunderbuss along with cosmetics like outfits and ship cosmetics and more. . Microtransactions are there but limited to pets and liverys like you see in MMOs. There is no season pass or any paid DLC. All content will be released for free plus you can get access to game for less than 10$ via game pass. They need some option to make money or not? Game also runs on dedicated servers which is rare for Gaas games. It's by far the best implementation of microtransactions. Much better than Gears 4, Destiny, SWbf and Forza games. Iam not against cosmetic microtransactions. I have purchased lot of cosmetics stuff in many games and recently in Skyforge coz I have spent over 100 hours in the game, so I don't mind buying cheap cosmetic items on deep sale.

This is a good way to implement microtrasactions ,thank god there are are no loot boxes and paid dlc. Considering Microtransactions are here to stay,i hope others follow this eg in the future.

Aftrunner Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 I still cannot believe this is a paid game. It looks like a shitty F2P mobile game. The art style just screams "Clash of pirates". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HEMAN Posted February 14, 2018 Report Share Posted February 14, 2018 Wouldn't this game more suited as a third person game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get game pass for 6 months or even one year for less than 50$, thanks to game pass I will play not only SoT, but also State of Decay and Crackdown. I will play 3 full 60$ by paying less than 60$.There's no need to pay monthly plus microtransactions are strictly optional. You can play whole without paying any microtransactions. People were making so much big deal about Shadow of War microtransactions and I completed it without paying any money.

WhiteWolf Posted February 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2018 Thanks to game pass, I don't mind playing MS games with Microtransactions coz for price of one game iam getting access to multiple Xbox games. I will be more critical of games which are not in game pass now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
