Welcome to Sea of Thieves (2024)

Welcome to Sea of Thieves (2024)
Seeing as how much Sea of Thieves has changed with Season 11, I decided to sit down and create a new player guide to get you started in 2024. Everything from tips and tricks for beginners to the ins and outs of how to make gold fast as a new player, after watching this video, you'll be armed with all the knowledge you need to conquer the seas!
And the best part? This entire guide is made for SOLO players! That's right, you can make a boatload of gold, as a beginner, all on your own, on your very first day. It's not a matter of skill.. But of knowledge.
So sit down, relax and enjoy what I consider to be the ultimate beginner guide for new players starting to play Sea of Thieves in 2024.

Why did you copy me?

Nea video pal. Make more.

[@rytb09-gaming]

Nah code pewdiepie for life

[@Yemto]

About treasure chests, there are two ways to place trinkets/skulls in them, placing it directly into the chest while it's open on the ground, or holding in the chest while aiming at the trinket/skull. I found the latter being much quicker.

[@RoundusMongus]

Oh yeah I just found out about that second way!

[@MartinFinnerup]

Thanks! I never knew.

"Reputation is a lot more difficult to come by than gold..." I'm not certain truer words could be spoken... Oh, also true in the game for sure.

Sad Hunter's Call noises that agree with both of you

Ledge the Tale Dude seems pretty cool, I wonder if he'll ever be as good as his half-brother Cliff?

I've only been playing a few WEEKS and I knew what to do better then those poor souls 😭

[@the.llamaguy]

I lost my siren skull yesterday because I was trying to sell it on an outpost for 10 minutes, that gave another ship time to come and kill us.

[@Valadin616]

Hey cliff I just wanted to say back in 2022. You got me to sea of thieves when I watched your video of how to start so thank you man keep up the good content. 👍

[@shyla7722]

11:50 thats exactly why i start every session with a fort. Acts as a lil warm up, gives you a good start on your emmisary grade plus you get a huge supply from raiding the barrels. i also just like the forts i think they cool :)

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Excellent way to start your day, I often do the same

[@wildgangsta]

My friend and I did a sea fort for the first time and literally not even able to raise sails since a brigantine was right at it, sunk them then a reapers grade 5 showed up sunk us laughed and was toxic, then the server reset. My friend got off out of frustration but I was able to finish it with no hassle but something that should’ve taken 45 mins took almost 2 hours because of toxic players who have nothing better to do in a game that has unlimited things to do

[@Alastor-1]

I have recently started playing sea of theives and just got a friend to get it. So far for about 40 hours i have been a solo slooper and own both my own sloop and brig. I haven't played for long but at least i own my own ships. I also have 22 in gold horders and 20 in souls. I love this game so much

[@Mariokid64DS]

When I ran into your channel it was a huge help for me to get further into the game and to get a good amount of gold in my wallet. I even was able to gain enough gold to buy my own ship, so I really want to thank you so much for being a big help in my pirate journey! I hope to run into you while journeying the Sea of Thieves!

[@shishchetosho9583]

I'm subscribed to you for a week and I do not regret it. I do not regret it at all... This game + your impeccable skills of telling a story = masterpiece

[@KyroTG]

So cool to see how all the shots from the stream are lining up in the video.

[@Alphadog2064]

This is my first video where I actually saw a good bit of it happen live which is really pog

[@CagyNater]

8:01 after this moment, "even pros can make mistakes," I get a sports betting ad of all things

[@Thatrandomguy00105]

Cliff I have watched ever single one of your videos including the shores of gold even though I already watched all the videos in it I have no regrets

[@flamingfishes]

Cliff as always another amazing video I’ve watched every single one you have uploaded and none of them have bored me. They are all so so well made

[@coldfusion167]

Watching this in anticipation of picking SoT up on PS5! Awesome video!!

[@luckyheadschot1312]

[@sixthesailor]

this was a fine “new player” guide Cliff. Well met!

[@RachelShortyRRees]

Great video! Remember when we didn't couldn't purchse storage crates or simply slurp up supplies? Remember when we had to interact with Treasure Chests manually? I'm loving this game so much with how far it's come and i've only been playing 3.5 years! The uptick in Bottle Quests has been such a game changer. As well as have very direct quests on the Quest Table. Sometimes, i only have 20-30 minutes to play and the new Diving and Quest Table is so perfect! Keep up the great videos!!!

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

"Back in my day" intensifies; God, I am so glad they made all these QoL improvements

[@drscifi14]

Cliff i just discovered your channel a few days ago and i’ve been binging them since 😭 awesome videos man keep putting them out for us 🙏🔥

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Welcome in drscifi!

[@reconproductions10]

I have played this game for 2+ years, and yet I was today years old when I found out that playing music would stop snakes from poisoning you.

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

I'm so glad I put that little tip into the video lmao

[@gamingcultist]

"Ledge the Tale Dude" has me laughing so hard for so long my wife is concerned for my well being, thank you Cliff.

[@Log726]

Stoped watching for a while, I was dealing with stuff, but watching these videos again makes me so happy, thank you cliff

[@Outcast_VR]

The games changed alot, i played yesterday for the first time since they started doing seasons, about s2, and it took me an hour to get a voyage started cos i was tryna buy one from the guilds like we used to and didnt realise you just actuvate 1 of many at the table now

[@sirditmardunkel]

Definitely a great video for newcomers :D I myself have played the game for quite some time but if I were new at the game I would find this video very helpful for getting started as Sea Of Thieves offers so much content it can be quite overwhelming.

[@aitak-emblem7]

Great video cliff. My favourite part. Is 13:02 when your explaining the reaper faction and have your friend on the side emoting with the gold skeleton curse. That's sick 😁.

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Love that you noticed the detail

[@ValeHydrangaea]

With how much season 11 fundamentally changed the game, your walkthrough mini-series here is gonna be super helpful to brand new pirates. 😎👍

[@raenkord7881]

New players? It’s good for players like me that are returning after a three year hiatus

[@GuldAnSKIBBIDI]

It’s crazy how skull and bones choked compared to this game

[@knuckenfutz9972]

Not that crazy when you put them side by side. Tbh diarrhea simulator would outdo skull and bones.

[@Ilovetrucks4579]

Just stumbled upon your channel last night and holy cow I watched your entire story playlist of. your videos are great and yes I did subscribe

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Welcome in! Glad you're enjoying the content :D

[@fishingsouthwestflorida1586]

I just started playing this game this weekend…I’m hooked…captain hooked…

[@vanishaway]

I remember Cliff when he had 7000 subs doing these videos still, just goes to show that with the right determination you can go anywhere. Congrats on the sponsorship!

[@CT--qf6om]

Been playing for 4 years this is what new players will definitely need as a short guide!

[@Oneoldosterage-wi4oz]

Being an experienced player myself this tutorial is useless to me; however, I can confidently say that this is a great tutorial for new players, which is who the target audience is… the tutorial covers all the basics and gives you useful tips which are sure to come in handy, yet it doesn’t get redundant by giving info that a new player won’t need. Even though I don’t need the tutorial I still enjoyed the video because it keeps the classic Cliff (or ledge) format of going on an adventure then telling the story in detail. Expertly crafted video my friend!

[@hexcastly]

You sold the game for me. Thanks for this speedy, yet filled with information, video. Blessings.

[@ravstar52]

I love the effects on your voice at 15:26 and 17:03. It's a wonderful touch

[@Shredderof_POWDA]

3 hours left till I can set sails on the ps5 beta. Been anxiously waiting. Thanks for the great content, tips, and tricks!

[@mrtoxic2777]

Oh yes I remember when I watched your tutorial in 2023 it helped me so much man (the thing that I was awaiting the most was the aahen lord event) Lol 😂😂 i remember running out of that place with my loot and the rowboat thanks alot😊😊❤❤

You are easily the best sea of thieves yt creator out there ! Your videos are amazing

I hope this is going to be a series for a little while. I absolutely love this (same with the newest tall tales like the monkey island one).

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Part 2 is already in the works :)

[@TheGuyVince]

Lets goooo

[@whale0_]

It's strange that the more recent Cliff's videos are about the less likes and views they get example: Summoning a KRAKEN video 1.2M views and 24K likes, This video 314K views and 11K likes.

[@Ian-jg6pj]

Awesome, I started a few days ago and have been watching your videos to try to get a better grasp of the game. This couldn't have come at a better time!

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

Hope you enjoy your time in the game and feel armed with knowledge to tackle the seas! Part 2 of the new player series is hopefully gonna be out in a few weeks :)

[@Levi_Funkiest]

Ahh yes, “ledge the tale dude” my favourite

[@KraylenX]

After 82 years cliff has finally blessed us with an upload!

[@CliffTheStoryGuy]

[@19JDOG91]

It’s crazy how different every session can be. Sometimes you’ll be attacked by 1 to 3 skeleton ships at a time, get a kraken, get snuck up on by a player and engage in a fight and other times you’ll be sailing the sea with absolute peace. 🙃

[@antinerfer11roblox31]

I'm returning back to the game and I'm Completely lost, this is really helpful!

As someone who has been playing for 2ish years and am NOT a beginner, this video is a perfect introduction to sot and the new updates that have occurred this season.

Great content. Been playing this game on and off for years, and it's great to see people have a passion for playing in too!

[@elliekittymeow]

Cliff i've been playing for a bunch of years now and im kinda surprised how good i am at hourglass pvp right now. thanks for your tips and tricks, and making me look at the game a lot differently too! im a lot less angry on it as well. i used to rage a lot. but thanks to you, i realise that even in defeat, there's still an epic tale to be told

[@marioborgen]

Every time I start a new account for games I’ve played for a long time, it’s always so weird to see the changes in early games has happened

[@Techn9cian123]

I put 500 hours into SoT back in the day but haven't touched it in years. Installed it today to see how well my first gaming PC could run it (300fps 1440p maxed settings) and was honestly overwhelmed by how much stuff has been added since I last played 5 years ago.

[@ZacharyH-ol4lo]

You got me and my friends into this game we have had so many fun nights together. If you ever see a gallon called the rats tail give us a visit mate! Good luck on the seas

[@72ratsinatrenchcoat]

This is the first video I clicked when trying to find a review on Sea of Thieves for 2024. Not disappointed in the slightest. Having played it many years ago when the game was pretty back bones it's nice to see so much of the game has been updated and that there's an ACTUAL tutorial in the game now. Can't wait to install it on pc

[@igorrodrigues2532]

I just started to play and I was looking for a video like this. The game is so good. I just think it needs more relevant updates

[@askatormc2375]

Gosh, the Streams were so much fun to watch! This journey was kinda more cursed than the Goldhoarder. However, I believe you made a baller Tutorial-esque vid for newcomers, well done! Really looking forward to the more... problematic streams that came thereafter :D

[@PopcornLover09]

thank you Cliff, as a new player I now know how to get around the sea and I am richer than Kiwibeard.

Thing about skeleton capitan orders is that now 90% of the time it's only one dig maps with a storage crate or sometimes a stronghold keg.

That tip with fire works and storage crates will come in handy for sure. It does make me wish that a filter system was in place so that any storage crates you find can be set to pick up whatever supplies you decide you need.
