Hear my review and know that I, The Almighty Logman, likes & enjoys this game.

This is my first time playing Skyrim, only purchasing it after hearing all the great things about it over the years after it's release (and many re-releases). Within the first two days of owning Skyrim, I had placed 33 hours into the game. Within two weeks I had placed 145 hours. To say the least, I haven't got much of a life & this game is great, immersive and gripping.
There are plenty of quests & many character customisations for almost unlimited replay-ability.
A huge map, with very mountainous and snowy terrains.
Graphics have been updated in this version to look better than the 2011 release.
Achievements come in varying difficulty but can be done in one playthrough which I think is great.
Very few bugs, none game-breaking.
Different endings, very nice!
Apparently very moddable, so pretty great for those in the modding community.
One of the best RPG's I've played so far, one that in my opinion can only be rivalled by Fallout: New Vegas.

Edit: Many thanks to those who have, or are thinking of giving this review an award, I will spend your points wisely ;)

Sea of Thieves is a very entertaining game, but has some downsides that can make it rather unappealing to some people. I will break it down in a pros & cons list.

Pros:
+ Great with Friends (Total of 4 crew members on the largest ship, including yourself).
+ Plenty to do (Quests, Treasure Maps for that Looty Booty, Fishing, PVE Plundering).
+ PVE is actually rather entertaining and rewarding.
+ Large map. Plenty of islands, outposts & secrets to find and explore.
+ Safer Seas so you could go into a private session to do Tall Tales or get to know the game mechanics.
+ Guilds. Allows 24 players to join & work together to gain additional rewards. Also allows ship sharing.
+ A few different ships for different crew sizes.
+ Variety of tools, weapons & ammo types to utilise.
+ Customisation options for both the ship & player.
+ Pets (Dogs, Cats, Foxes, Parrots, Monkeys). Plus, if you can afford to spare the ancient coins, outfits for the pets.
+ Sea Shanties. Need I say more?

Cons:
- PVP in all areas. I've been attacked at sea, spawn camped on my own boat, ambushed at an outpost where I was trying to sell my haul of loot & tricked with the "Alliance" System. There is no passive zones, or passive mode upon spawn with a "x" amount of time before you start taking damage again, which is rather annoying.
- Sea of Thieves has a rather crappy community, some people will avoid you or be nice to you, but most will try to kill you just for sport & the slim chance of loot. I've spent 30mins in a session, just fishing & chilling, winding down after a busy day & people have literally killed me for fish. Fish for crying out loud, which can barely get you 1K gold!
- Useless reporting system. Can't report racism, griefing or any type of harassment without a video of it happening. Most reports without that get ignored.
- Less enjoyable by your lonesome. It's not terrible, it's just better with friends.
- Safer Seas (Private Sessions) have a slight waiting time to them & aren't as rewarding as normal sessions. (Gold gains are reduced significantly, no emissaries & level gains are capped).
- Guilds are a thing, but being able to set sail with multiple crewed ships on the same server from one guild, from my knowledge, hasn't been implemented.
If you have more than 3 friends that you want to play Sea of Thieves with, in the same server, be prepared to do 20Mins+ of Server Hopping.
- Requires a XBOX / Microsoft Account.

Conclusion:
Generally, I do believe this game is pretty awesome, as for 6 months I continuously sank time into it. But while communities can often make games, in the case of Sea of Thieves, it can also break them.
I've played solo & with friends, I've joined random people via the official discord & met some really cool people on the high seas. However, these cool people are far & few between.
Rare makes it more rewarding for people to be douches towards each other & that for me is quite annoying because I often play to chill out, not compete with others for loot that I've already worked hard for.

So all in all, if you're reading this review, I'd say this game is worth buying, but only if you've got friends to play with & whilst it's on a 33% Discount or more.
The Logman's Rules & Guidelines (+PC Specs)
Rules & Guidelines!

#1 Asking To Play.
1A) If you'd like me to join a game, don't spam me with invites & expect me to join. I find that annoying. (This applies especially when I'm playing a different game).
1B) If you're an achievement hunter asking me for help, make sure you know which achievement(s) you're going for & make it clear how we're tackling it. Don't be wasting my time by asking me to play the game & then not knowing what you're going for or being toxic because we screwed it up.

#2 Advice For Conversing With Me.
2A) Just like 1A, please don't spam me with messages. Keep it simple, paragraph things.
2B) Speak to me in English only. I'm not smart enough for multiple languages & I'm too lazy to be translating anything.
2C) Don't send me random links asking me to vote for your CS:GO Team, YouTube Videos, Cat Pics, etc... I won't bother clicking on them & it's an easy way of getting yeeted off my friends list.

#3 Trading.
3A) If you're looking to trade, make sure it's a fair deal, we aren't on Ferenginar, the rules of acquisition don't apply here.
3B) Don't attempt to scam me for any of my items.
3C) Please have an open inventory if you're sending me a trade offer. I can't counter if you have a private inventory & counter-offers are a important part of the process for trading.
3D) I don't accept game keys as payment for items in my inventory. This is due to dodgy 3rd party sites & no guarantees of the keys actually working.
3E) Unless otherwise specified, my inventory items aren't free or for giveaways.

#4 Gift Policy, Profile Awards & Comments.
4A) Do not beg me for anything. This includes, but isn't limited too: Games & DLC's, Steam Wallet Vouchers or Inventory Items. (Read 5B)
4B) Please avoid gifting me anything, because I'm one of the few people in the world that isn't a fan of receiving gifts. If you still feel inclined to gift me things, I would much prefer Profile Awards, thank you.
4C) I also appreciate all comments on my profile, as long as they are polite, accurate & aren't ridiculous, like ASCII art of Shrek or a pair of Tits. I like Shrek & Titties as much as the next guy, but please keep it out of my comments, or it'll be deleted.

#5 Miscellaneous.
5A) I can't believe I've had to make this a rule, but don't be a snowflake. Nobody likes a snowflake.
5B) Regarding Gifts (Games / DLC's / Steam Wallet Vouchers £$€), if I don't know you personally, there's a high chance that I WON'T be gifting you anything. This is because I'm not made of money.
(My account is a 14-Year effort on how to play games without going bankrupt).
5C) I don't associate with users who use Multiplayer Cheats & Mods or have multiple VAC / Trade bans, unless they are friends in real life.

What happens if you break the rules?:
It depends entirely on which rule was broken.
Small stuff like 4B are merely guidelines & won't really go anywhere.
More serious stuff may lead to: Unfriending, Blocking, Reporting, a negative rating on SteamTrades or all of previous.

The Logman's FAQ, Current Steam Goals & Shout-Out Zone
General Info & FAQ

Name:
Logman (Not really, but wouldn't you like to know ;))

From:
The United Kingdom / England.

Age:
Old enough.

My Interests & Hobbies:
Shenanigans with the lads, gaming, eating, sleeping & listening to tunes. I am an Achievement Hunter, Badge Collector & Steam Trader. I'm very boring, you'd get more fun from having a conversation with a meth'd up Squirrel from Florida.

Things That I Don't Find interesting:
My day / your day at work. Twitch / YouTube streamers. Metal music. Visual Novels & NSFW games.

Am I a skilled Gamer?:
Nope! I'm mediocre at best. This means any salty comments on my profile are very entertaining to see! I mostly play to keep my self entertained by going for those glorious Steam Achievements.

My Favourite Games:
Call Of Duty: MW2 (2009) / Cyberpunk 2077 / Dishonored / Fallout: New Vegas / Far Cry 3 / Grand Theft Auto 5 / Mafia II / Mass Effect: Legendary Edition.

Will I Play a Game With You?:
Probably not. Being an introvert, interaction with people for me is very taxing, even online, so I prefer to play by myself or with people I know in real life. I may end up playing with you if we share common goals though, like achievement hunting.

Will I Join Your Group?:
That depends entirely on the group. If it's a pointless group without a purpose, then no. If it's a group that hunts achievements or does a lot of trading, then it's a solid maybe, I'll certainly consider it.

Music Taste:
My music taste ranges from Rock to Pop. From Hip Hop to Country. Even OST's from Movies, TV Shows & Games. Almost everything besides Heavy Metal.

Miscellaneous Info:
I've been Gaming for roughly 15+ Years. I've had multiple consoles, but there's a reason why people consider it to be the PC Master Race. I may have a slight OCD problem with my Steam Profile.

Other Accounts:
I do not have any additional Steam accounts. If someone adds you claiming to be me, it's a lie. I do however, have accounts with EA & Rockstar. You'll mostly find me on Steam though, these other "Launchers" are useless piles of garbage. (And yes, I also have Discord).

My Current Steam Goals:
Reach Level 500.
Own a total of 5000 Games
Write 25 Guides, each with at least 3 Star Ratings.
Write 100+ Reviews, each with at least 10 or more Helpful / Funny ratings.
Take 10000 aesthetically pleasing Screenshots.
Earn a total of 25,000 Awards.
Give out 12,500 awards to worthy Profiles, Reviews, Guides, Screenshots, Discussion Posts & Workshop Submissions.

Shout-out Zone
What is this?
The following is a list of people that I'm friends with on Steam that take awesomeness to the next level & deserve a shout out. I may just be a insignificant spec of dust in the universe, but it's important to recognise the amazing people in life.
Note: I've met plenty of people on Steam that deserve a shout-out, but I have limited showcase space & so there's only 10 spots on this list + 1 honourable mention. If I missed you out, just know I think you're awesome too.

1) Xypherix
Xypherix is my oldest friend & an absolute gaming machine, helping me achieve a fair amount of achievements on plenty of tough games. He's also provided technical expertise on more than a fair share of occasions.

2) SIDEWAYS DAZ
Daz Jr. has helped with a lot of my technical issues & even built my current gaming rig. He also helped me with the Spec Ops achievements for Call of Duty: MW2 (2009) & MW3 (2011)

3) Trooper
Trooper is an old friend of mine who has helped me improve my profile in various ways & was kind enough to help me 100% several Zombie games. He's also an absolute GigaChad who has his own Content Creation channels on YouTube & Twitch.

4) White Wolf
Wolf makes most situations involving him rather amusing, on account of him being on the spectrum. He's helped me out loads with multiple games & was kind enough to finance some of my current PC components.

5) Slug
Slug continuously makes what would be a rather boring gaming session, x10 times better. By bringing a certain level of comedic finesse to every situation & a questionable music taste. Legit, the best online mate I've made in the last 14yrs.

6) blynx
blynx is an extremely friendly, helpful & generous trader. He's helped me a lot with my trading goals, by doing around 10000+ trades with me in the space of a year. He can often be found doing some form of giveaway in the Steam Trading Discussions.

7) CP22
Honestly, a very great & friendly guy, thank you for your help with the trades & generosity in a world filled with less than generous people.

8) Rinreaper666 One of the more unique specimens I've met on the internet. A entertaining Twitch Streamer who was also one of the few people kind enough to put up with me when I was drunk, even though they didn't have to. Did I also mention that they have a completely normal obsession with Pyramid Head?

9) Unknown_170601
Wanted to be here so he's here. Unlike everyone else he doesn't get a cool sentence explaining why.

10) MrBotato
Wanted to be here so he's here. Unlike everyone else he doesn't get a cool sentence explaining why.
