I haven't been watching any videos about Sea of Thieves so its good to hear that they're actually adding content. It is a pity that they're deciding to trickle in more content as the game progresses instead of having a baseline level at launch. Its almost as if they didn't think people would actually buy the game so they didn't add as much to the game. Almost as a panic, "Oh people are playing, better add content"
Yes! Add actual progression. Even if they're there's a trade off. A new sail goes faster but it needs to be aligned with the wind more precisely for example. But the real customization would be awesome!
