I never took GB serious after i saw them play Quantum Break as a cover shooter.
I do like the talks at E3 tho from them. But thats the only time i watch them.

The only time I watch GB is when they talk to Phil Spencer or a few other people during E3. They are toxic and basically if they have no interest in a game, they tend to really take a dump on the game. Like a person above mentioned, the game told them to get chicken cages from the vendor, yet they are lost like they never played a video game in their life.

Each time my boat sank I spawned next to an island with plenty of planks, bananas, and cannonballs. It doesn't seem too punitive in that regard, and you do start with enough of each to get by.
I don't think he's complaining about having to restock, just saying it's kinda crappy how your unsunk ship disappears into nothing after you log out. I agree with them. It would be neat if your ship with tons of battle scars and supplies stuck around even after you log out and log back in.

I'll never be the type to group up, so I'm gonna miss out on this one, but I love the look.

Sign up for xbox game pass (google it). Open your Start menu in W10, type in Region. Open the Region settings. Change to NZ. Restart computer (not sure if required but I did). Go on to W10 store, download game.

You could just sail around alone for a bit to enjoy the beauty. Don't even bother with voyages or battles.
Really a totally different experience alone and in a group of 2 or 4, i have to admit.

But yeah i would not buy the game and spent $60 for that, too.
But thanks to Game Pass, there is always the option to get in "for free" with your trial.

Or watch some stream, if that is your cup of tea.

Oh man. Looking at the specs for this game, it looks like it might run on my laptop - which means my GF and I could play out our Monkey Island fantasies in our front room.

Anyone got experience running this on a laptop?

Mine is:
quad core at 2.5Ghz
8GB RAM
GTX 1050 (6GB VRAM)

I'll definitely be watching here and there to see how it develops.

Is this enhanced for Xbox X on day one?

Yes. But like the last beta the "X" version has slowdown (not consistent, but noticeable) and screen tearing (repeatable). So performance wise, depending on your PC (if you have a PC) it is PC>Xbox One/S>>Xbox One X. Game played flawlessly during Beta's and Scale Tests when running on "X" without "X" enhancements. As soon as the flipped the switch, performance and screen tearing on the "X" started with the last beta. From reports, it is the same with the real game and no way to revert as well. So "X" owners are getting the worse performing version of the game until it is fixed. It definitely looks better than standard Xbox One/S...so at least it has that going for it.

It looks like so much hard work went into every aspect of the game, the artwork, the graphics, the sound and soundtrack, just incredible. I want this game to be a huge hit because honestly Rare deserves it.
