This week in Sea of Thieves, we sit down for the last episode of the year to talk to the Gold Hoarders about Season 18, The Orb Stream, Hourglass Changes, and more! It's a great discussion as always, and I'm glad we got to end the year chatting with friends about the latest season!

This week in Sea of Thieves, it's time to dive into the patch notes and talk about the opening week for Season 18. The new Eternal Guards are a fresh take on a boss fight, but will people enjoy them or should Rare vary up the mechanics more in the future? Some new vaults in the world have a hefty amount of gold to be gotten as well, but you'll only find them in the Roar. Tridents are cool with how powerful they are compared to the original Disney Sticks, and I like the name Pixie Sticks. There's 'Support a Streamer' and 'Festival of the Giving' coming up this week, so hopefully you aren't sick of drops from the Orb Stream. Speaking of, I talk about the experience of the Orb stream and what I thought as well.

This week in Sea of Thieves, Rare has released the latest patch, which includes quick swap ranged weapons as well as the return of Reaper Chests to the Fort of the Damned. A quality of life update came with the reduction of black screens for lower-end hardware. The biggest thing right now is that Rare is looking to sell you a customizable audio setup for $20 to simulate 7.1 channel audio for the game. While it remains to be seen how good this actually is, a lot of the community is calling out Rare for trying to charge for this new feature that no one asked for.

This week in Sea of Thieves, it's a shame we have to do this song and dance one more time. Season 18 has been delayed, and while we're getting quality of life updates this month, the release of new content is going to be pushed out further than anticipated. I cover a bunch in this episode, but a lot of this is my thoughts on Rage and Bone Crates, Overhealth, and the overall design of Sea of Thieves and Rare not being able to stick to timelines for very long.

This week, it has been another month, and it's time to get a gauge on how the start of Act 3 is for Season 17 with the Gold Hoarders as they sit down to join me for another episode. It's always great to find out if their opinions fall in line with my own. We try to avoid spoilers for Lottie's Request and Insiders chat, but most of that will be in next week's episode!

This week in Sea of Thieves, it's time to get an impression of the latest addition to Season 17. While I'm happy with how the forts turned out, both on High Seas and Safer Seas, there's a lingering issue that I have with the Emporium. There are also some changes coming in the future that will make a majority of Hourglass players happy, and quick swap is now being tested in Insiders. All that and more on this week's episode!
