Hello it's Ricardo but with the release of sea of thieves I'm still carrying on
doing the initial mission so I've been given these warrant and warrant cars
Lang plotting a course to go and try and find the next person I have to find so
the graphics are generally growing on me with this with this game I think it's
really good you know that cartoony aspect doesn't take itself too seriously
so here I am at the map table as the hold of the ship so I've got planks of
words I got muskets you know and and in my my barrels I've got storage of other
stuff as well like cannonballs I can put into the cannons you can store your
cannonballs you can take cannonballs all that good stuff is you'd imagine you'd
have with your with your ship there's the ammo chest good for reloading your
ammo that you'd imagine it would be because hey every muskets gonna have
shot so I've destroyed captain miss Tina with an undead pirate captain on this
island it's now time to raise my sails
let's go pay some attention to the anchor again all this would be so much
easier if we had more people on the boat to help with some of the tasks so now
sales anchors up you can now turn the ship set sail and we're off to our next
destination that next destination will be where the next part of my mission we
have to go and destroy some more skeleton pirate Lords that's picking up
that bounty to die in the hold of the ship like I say there's barrels full of
loads of stuff as well and with planks of wood you can obviously fix any damage
that you've got to your ship as you can see I've got some water leaking in on
the side and I got a bucket to bail out so I better get bailing there's quite a
bit of water in the bottom around ship repairing it with a plank of wood now
let's face it I'm just looking out to keep bailing out and with that bucket
it's gonna take me a while Oh we'll share the crew let's look at
that lovely aspect of the sea that sort of like aquamarine color it's got that's
fantast fantastic colour I mean living by the sea you tend to see the sea that
color anyway but I think it's yeah they've done an awful lot of work on
animating the sea as you'd expect like in a space game an awful lot of work
goes into the constellations and the effect of travel through space this
being a pirate game and you know sea of thieves as you can imagine an awful lot
of work goes into the sea so can I ask you a favor click that subscribe button
and then look for the notification icon under in the notification belt that'll
let you know I'm putting more sea of thieves and other game videos on YouTube
and every subscription every like is appreciated so on my way now - mermaids
hideaway
and getting the hang of controlling the ship what you need to get the hang of it
put it this way you gotta have a good practice you can't expect just to pick
it up and go it's not like driving any of the sort of modern vehicle I think a
lot of work has gone into the dynamics of driving a ship which is good again
because it's called sea of thieves so there's the island I meant to be going
to all the way over there you can just see as the sail flows out of the way
quite a large swell on the sea just going to adjust the course there's the
lagoon of whispers and again I've traveled so far I've set sail for the
first time and I've got an achievement
so I'm heading due east and once I get close enough I can effectively put the
anchors on jump over and get to shore loose fish okay so the ER know and
there's some skeleton pirates we've got a banana that's okay let's get that cut
this out
cutting through those skeletons look at that
peering little bit of damage and he's doing a runner kaboom wait keep
the banana to restore some strength
let's just check some of those barrels there's a snake very important to be
away from them I've been bitten so you can see I've got poison some wolf
cannonballs and the effects the poison of war and off just in time now for
that's a cutlass creating skeleton to come after me so eat that banana ok on
to explore this island here come all the skeletons not just a few kick and the
more
to get a better musket and learn how to shoot so good effects from the
environment as well you see I was walked into a a tree and then the palm tree
leaf you know suasion and I was able to
manipulate that as I walked past it was great and he's gone so let's continue
now
so so far no screen tearing just a hell of a lot of pirates these audio out
there's the boss
both barrels Barnett and were they drinking fortunately not arms or
anything this time but got that sort of malaise swipe attacked so I defeated
them that's great it's dodged all these snakes our voyage
is complete let's eat that banana another achievement taking orders
compete an order of soils souls voyage
okay more barrels to investigate more bananas and other items
so with that pirate Lord defeated time to get on with my quest so an adjustment
of the settings as well adjusting the controller sensitivity might help with
gameplay I don't know just the personal preference of mine let's get back to the
ship that's a good effect as well isn't it then you think a really good effect
under the water you've got the reflections and refractions of light on
the water up the ladder and on to the next mission
now what I found this scene thieves is very rich they've a hell of a lot of
work has gone in it and you can see why it was a year late I mean it was meant
to be released February last year and we pre-ordered it and as a result of the
delay and and that the many beaches that have been round I think it's all paid
dividends the slick aspect of this game
and when I say slick yeah very slick
so we've set sail we've raised anchor and on to our next destination we'll
have a car merci not much of the heavy swell is what we had the last time by
navigating by that compass we can move on to our destination
so now stand to come into port wasn't gonna bore you with too much sailing
across the seas sort of thing time to pull up close to the jetty weigh anchor
and get in and cash in on some of those missions that I've collected obviously
get my feet wet at that time so there's bananas and these cannonballs to pick up
and the like wooden planks all good stuff preparing your ship
so let's get on to the island get near to there what you're gonna call town or
pirate village and talk to some people and what's really good I'm gonna get a
crew mate does we saw some of the earlier videos the different shacks
depict where they use your missions you can buy things to embellish a character
and great your ship and the like now it seems like the Sun is setting so we're
gonna be it's going to be nighttime very soon you see all the multicolored
lanterns the fires let's talk to Madame Olga
additional missions that I can pick up
the souls offers I suppose this I was it a bit of kin to a modern-day Monkey
Island now really it's it's option based on your conversations that would go down
our logic tree you know I like yeah I like the idea I liked Monkey Island
I thought monkey on it was a fantastic game back in the 90s you know the kids
still play it today it's the live ailable and I host the
platform's GOG steam on the Xbox that's not all about action yeah you're gonna
have to think about things your responses and the like
so gonna head on back across the bridge
and the other side of the island so aboard the ship and in map view it's
gonna be time to set sail and get out a jarred dodge and get on the next part of
the mission and that effect as well when you lower your sail you can see the
guests of wind fill it that's a really good effect it gives you an idea the
winds heading so under the power of sail we're off so the whole sort of
navigating that night thing you know you got it's a good effect you've got the
lanterns alight on your ship you've got your compass you've got your map you
know it there's really no difference it's a fantastic color the way the light
of the Moon is reflecting on on the sea the graphics I think on this a brilliant
a really good really really good
so we are heading Southwest
and in general you can see the sea is now starting to swell so a bit of work
to be either keep on keep on track till you get to our destination so these
early missions are pretty much the same although you know I've got loads of
cannonballs in my ship now I've reached this island and by sailing past you can
shoot yourself via a cannon onto the shoreline that's engaging the skeletons
a little bit quicker I've now got a bit of a blender bus a bigger shot rifle
just pretty a bit more effective than the old musket I had it there the
skeletons there's a pig running around and another achievement bone crunch
killer skeleton waltz cringing on a banana obsessed with bananas and again
I've got real barrels it's a blender
so more skeletons to kill and to be fair mean it spurts a little bit you know
monotonous I've gotta say go twin island regs kill the skeletons great kill the
boss skeleton great look at the pigeons look at the barrels make it what's
inside the barrels kill the big bad pirate move on to the next one but these
are early on missions and and there's there's the old boss body you know there
he is
captain sly dog so blend the bus out-kaboom
sly dog so tiny has been defeated and I had his bellowing stone time to go back
to the old ship
for each complete or mission complete so so far first impressions on seer thieves
I like it I can see how perhaps some of these early missions you need a little
bit of stick ability and able to to persevere with the game to get to the
other missions and the game to really open up that's not an issue though
however because I think it's a game that's worthwhile investing over their
time in it I'd be Riccardo thanks very much for watching and look back for more
videos in the series
