Now the floor's open to you: what are your favourite activities in the game, piratical or otherwise?

It's so sad that this game did not recive the credit it fully desverve. How Obsidian lost money on it is unbelivable. I just love the game and they way you can customize classes with multiclassing. Making some insane fun builds. Rogue being the best combinator imo. Rogue/Ranger = Perfect sniper. Rogue/Wizard = Superb counter tank. Rogue/Cipher = Ideal assassin. I'm on my third playthrough now, replaying every year or so. So much fun.

Coming to the party late, as I generally only buy games after they’ve been out a while. Yes, I’m “frugal”. LOL Playing POE II on the PS4, but frustrated by average lag/loading times of at least one minute, plus a lot of hesitation in game play. Halfway through, then finally bought the PC version. Starting over, but so much smoother!! You made some great observations, but I want to offer three other things to consider: First, collect everything from every battle/encounter and then sort through the equipment to see what upgrades you can apply to your group. Equip that, and put the rest aside. You will be making your party stronger after almost every battle. Second, sell extra equipment that is equal to, or less than, the quality of gear that you are currently equipping. You can sell it to any vendor, and you should! Then you can buy lots of food that boosts morale (for the shipboard crew) and have coin left over for all the other eye candy you’ll run across. Third, don’t worry about getting a bigger ship unless you want to actually trade cannonballs with another ship. there are better ways of spending your coin. Instead, recruit fighters, paladins, and chanters at the taverns. Include one new, low-level Noob in your party for an adventure or two. When you go to level them up, they will climb to the level of your main character, or close. Give them good gear, then take them out of your party and rotate another new character in, and rotate back in the veteran you had displaced; now displace a different veteran. WHY?! Well, when fighting at sea you can always choose the option to board immediately. The various characters you have, even if they’re not in your immediate 5-character party, will take part in the ship-boarding battle. So… you want to take your time and level them up, and you want to equip them with nice gear, so that they can be a great help decimating the opposing crew. Keep the new kids simple - no subclasses, and few special skills. FOCUS ON PASSIVE SKILLS, on a 2:1 ratio or even 3:1. The quality of the character is WAY more important than the number of spells/skills he/she can use. (If you want to do more, use specialized scrolls.) The results are very good. You come across better gear often; you get a lot of stuff to sell for a lot of coin; you can also earn a lot of coin on bounties that you can collect more easily; and finally, you have a wider roster to choose from when/if you lose a battle and need to reload and try again - which, frankly, hasn’t happened since I started figuring out this dynamic. Great video, but incredibly brief for such a deep game. Still, you covered some important parts and didn’t dally with making your points; you gave concise and beneficial advice. You really should have more views! I subscribed and will keep an eye out for your other videos. Keep up the good work!

I know I'm finding this video a little late (the game finally got a 75% discount, haha) but I wanted to drop a line and say how much I enjoyed your video - your writing, your editing, your sense of humor, and in fact your voice itself are all very enjoyable. You deserve lots more subs, so I'm clicking the red button.

Exploring seeing what is on each island. Also fighting pirates.

Well made video. You deserve more views

I really like to read books in the Deadfire, you never know how many hours will be spent sailing across the Archipelogo

The greatest feature is allowing the player to chart and name islands. I named the first islands I charted "The Pussy Islands."

Idk how these games were under my radar for so long. Everyone comparing diablo online the last couple months I finally asked what’s POE? Nobody ever fully worded it. I finally got an answer and looked it up and they both are on game pass so I decided to give ‘em a whirl and i am obsessed. It’s like a fantasy book and game combined with D and D and I just can’t stop.it’s incredible.

Love this game so much.

Now that's what Flash Game "Seafight" should be xD

I subbed

The map is big yes but it is mainly ocean their really isn’t all that much.

I love this game so much… that being said… it runs atrociously on console and I’ve wanted to stop playing altogether multiple times on account of the load times alone but on top of that the crashes and constant lagging during fights. It’s really sad how awful it runs.

It’s a cool game, but WAYYYY too complicated smh I can’t keep track of everything.

To be honest, it's really not that big. Fun though
