VIDEO GAMES 2018 MEGATHREAD (brrrrrr)

[Tempest]

matterialize and i tried out the Sea of Thieves stress test this weekend and holy shit it was cool. there was very little actual content in the current form of the game, so it's hard to tell what kind of lasting power it would have, but just sailing around in a 2-person ship digging up treasure and trying to dodge larger groups of nerds in big ships was fucking awesome. the game looks incredible and the actual gameplay hook was crazy fun, so if they can deliver on some actual content it might be a strong release next month

there's only one faction you can accept jobs from in the beta, the gold hoarders, and all of their jobs are 'go to island, dig up treasure, bring it back and sell it' so i assume when they add the other factions there will be more job variety
