What happened to 1440p?
Prob true, but considering MS sell XSS as a 1440p machine I find it strange that they didn't go for that as a first party game.I don't think that Rare ever said the Series S version would be 1440p.

Surely, I'm with you on that, but it just seems like a missed opportunity to show what they hype as it's their own developer idkThese machine are really more of a "up to", the resolutions are controlled by the devs not by MS. They can use the horsepower in whatever way they see fit,
Nobody gives a f*** about Series S. Get the Series X or GTFO, you s***stains.

If you have played this game since the beginning or before it's actual beginning the frequency of updates has been getting lower and lower. At first they were doing weekly updates, then bi weekly, then monthly, and now moving to what seems to be every 3 months.Damn this is long term.
Yet you still find people claiming that the game is some kind of disaster from MS/Rare because they refuse to acknowledge that the game was made to grow in depth and scope, and has maintained a pretty large following. If the review system wasn't broken for this type of game, it would be getting more acclaim, too. It deserves more notoriety for the sheer scale of what it does, IMO.Damn this is long term.
They have a lot less bug fixing now. (Not that they will ever all be gone with this type of game) I think that every 2-3 months for seasonal updates is perfect. Those are usually pretty big story/world changes. I was missing out on a lot of content because I don't have a ton of time to spend grinding every week.If you have played this game since the beginning or before it's actual beginning the frequency of updates has been getting lower and lower.

That's a weird way to just say that you won't pick up the game again.I'll definitely jump back in when they make a real progression system, got tiresome to only get cosmetics for all your earned treasures.
Wut?That's a weird way to just say that you won't pick up the game again.

Notice that I did say "a lot less". There's definitely been much more that has been sort of bolted-on than reworked. I did play the technical alpha a tad bit, then the beta. Yeah, sometimes ships and megs do some weird stuff, even still. I've seen plenty of flying Dutchman videos, as well.There are still bugs in the game that have been there since the technical alpha. lol.
Sorry, but I've still don't think they mean anything but cosmetics. The game has a solid foundation where anyone can play at the same level, from noob to Pirate Legend, and beyond. There's no way they can change that, nor should they, IMO. You still learn natural skill by playing more, though. There's so much to learn that this knowledge IS like leveling up! Things like the Sloop being the fastest into a headwind or a Galeon being the fastest in a tailwind, memorizing the islands on the map, knowing how to use the harpoon to snatch items and teammates, what is worth more to you to quest for, etc. There's no need to have increased defense or HP. You just have to learn "the ropes", as they say. Knowledge really is power in this game.Wut?

The only thing that worries me about this game is whether or not I could have fun by myself.
I play solo for 90% of my play time.The only thing that worries me about this game is whether or not I could have fun by myself.
I play solo in destiny, probably a mistake except for randos out in the open world for public eventsI play solo for 90% of my play time.
And there's enough real story content to keep you busy? I was always under the impression sea of thieves was kind of a make your own story kind of game which is much easier with a group.I play solo for 90% of my play time.
