I’m talking about things like:

most realistic physics most aesthetically pleasing sea most fun to play most immersive (pun intended (I’ll sea myself out)) most activities available at sea most variety of sea going vessels

Games with impressive seas that I’ve played so far:

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey (Triremes and heaving seas) Just Cause 3 (Sparkling blue mediterranean seas) Sea of Thieves (Monsters and pirates) Sailwind (Gentle seas and actual sailing mechanics) Silent Depth 2 Pacific (Sneaky WW2 subs) Cold Waters (Sneaky modern subs) Uboat (Beautiful WW2 seas, rare shooting opportunities) Subnautica (Thalassophobia and crafting)

I’ve also noticed that Ships at Sea has just gone on sale. If you’ve played it recently was it any good?

    The developer is a cash hungry idiot, with no intention to ever listen to the community.

    The community is great, battles intense, and the skill ceiling sky high. Sailing mechanisms second to none.

    There’s a lot more ships than the DLC ships. But yes, it’s almost inevitable you will end up buying a couple of them, because the DLCs let you spawn a ship for free every day.

    I stopped playing when the Dev decided to split the already low-populated PvP server into two separate instances, which is currently being reversed (to noones surprise).

      In fairness, I didn’t notice that the game was F2P, no entry fee, so they have to get money from somewhere.
