Summary

a ghost-like skeleton and gold skeleton were previewed quickly in the video

the developers apologized for the empty treasure rooms at skeleton forts.

they're talking about charming the snakes and using them as traps.

they confirmed the new skeleton ghost form and will discuss them more.

you'll be able to figure out distances... Maybe a sexton hinted?

golden skeletons are heavier and slower, but possibly weak to water (throw water on them!)

lanterns needed for fighting shadow skeletons

they just talked about the video posted on Reddit showing the ship in the storm driving over the other ship.

also talking about other reddit videos... Guess they're paying attention to reddit!

tomes with info, quests, and song lyrics are all around the map

showcasing the physical products like figures, hardware, etc. Nothing new.

the comics feature lore about characters in-game.

the tales book features a character that "might be in the game in the future ".

launch trailer tomorrow.

official reddit AMA on Friday

on Monday, "something amazing" is going to be released before launch.

pirate "save" selector will be available during character creation at launch.

private crew option (not allowing others to join) confirmed.

legendary pirates will be obviously identifiable by their unique ship.

they're still not 100% positive on pre-load information yet.

alpha founders should expect something special.

you can share legendary voyages and rewards with non-legendary crew members.

once you reach captain status, you strictly are in charge of the cosmetics of the ship. The ship is yours!

Portuguese is not the same as Spanish

quick glimpse of gameplay trailer showed a single Kraken tentacle.

the end!

I’m intrigued about the ‘amazing thing’ they talk about, they were very excited about it in the rare hq vid. The girl in charge of seasonal/future events is doing it.

Not worried about pre-load I’ll kick it off at midnight.

I enjoyed my brief time with SoT over the previous weekend. It's very good and I've no doubt Rare have a huge hit on their hands. For me though, I realistically won't have the time to play it so won't be buying. In fact I've only bought one game in the last month or so, which is quite a feat for me, and have no plans to buy anything else for some while, so happy with that.

I wonder if they have some sort of Goonies stuff in the first month of the game, that'd be pretty cool.

For me this is a game I'll be playing on and off for a VERY long time, sailing alone or with friends, as I said before it's easy to do both and neither restricts anything you want to do.

I'll put it along PUBG as a game I'll keep playing over the next couple of years.

Up until two days ago I had no interest in this whatsoever. However, I can't believe how much I have rapidly and aggressively caved on this - not only have I pre-ordered the game, but I've got myself a nice shiny new Xbox One X to play it on too!

It looks GORGEOUS on Xbox One X.

As an aside, I was thinking of dedicating a night, rocket league style to this.... any suggestions?

I feel like I should try this is as I've invested in an X1X but it's doing absolutely nothing for me.

It really is, I like the playing music while ship sinks titanic achievement but honestly the majority of them are excellent.

The sailing in this is enough to keep me going but the more I think about it, the more concerned I am. I’ve no doubt this will start well and be supported but so far in everything I’ve played it’s a bit fetch questy, also despite newer enemy types they’re still all skeletons, they’ve kept so many things under wraps though so hope when you delve into each type of quest they get broader in scope and harder.

Is this crossplay with pc and xbox one/one X? I'm getting this 100% and really would like some people to play with.

I'd be in that. I really want to get into this game but don't have any friends to set sail with. :cry:
