> “The Drifter’s outfit in particular suits the world of Sea of Thieves quite well… Bungie’s signature sci-fi flair blends surprisingly well with Rare’s pirate stylings.
Though the Sea of Thieves x Destiny 2 crossover has brought new fans, some members of the community have their doubts. One article from Rock Paper Shotgun states, “Sea of Thieves’ next crossover is with Bungie’s Destiny, a crossover that doesn’t make all that much sense if we’re being honest.”
One of the Reddit users (r/seaofthieves) has commented-
> “I never thought I needed Zavala on a pirate ship, but here we are — and it slaps.”
However, some players don’t see how the two games collaborate given the difference in both their settings and genres. On Reddit, a thread discusses how many find the collaboration “one-sided” due to Sea of Thieves getting content based on Destiny 2 and not the other way around. One user stated, “This looks cool but golly gee these collabs are one-sided.”
The gaming community has different opinions about how balanced the collaboration is, but one thing they can all agree on is that it has brought shocking new content to the Sea of Thieves x Destiny 2 crossover.
