Summary
A cleverDestiny 2player has injected a dose of stealth into the normally action-focused atmosphere of the game with a new outfit inspired bySplinter Cellprotagonist Sam Fisher. Designed for use by aDestiny 2Hunter, the outfit choices are also practical in regular and PVP gameplay, according to their creator.
Destiny 2is notable for having a unique and recognizable visual identity, thanks to the art direction of developer Bungie. HoweverDestiny 2’s massive selection of armor parts and color shaders allows players to use its versatile customization system to emulate all manner of characters from across the aesthetic spectrum.Destiny 2costumes can evoke iconic Bungie characters like Master Chief, as well as answer questions like “What would aDestiny 2Titan look like as a head of corn?”
So it went for player LazyLiMy, who shared a uniqueSplinter Cell-inspired Hunter costume with the DestinyFashion Reddit community. Their outfit used the Hunter armor selection to recreate a Third Echelon operative from what is arguablythe best Tom Clancy game series ever devised.
Destiny 2 Splinter Cell Outfit Cleverly Uses Superblack Shader
TheSplinter Cellcostume created by LazyLiMy uses the popularDestiny 2Superblack color shaderas its core, using it on all the armor slots except for the head, which is colored by Gambit Jadestone. The Gambit Jadestone shader is also key, as the glowing green elements of the shader work well with the use of the Wastelander Mask. The mask expertly evokes the iconic visor used by Sam Fisher, which featured night vision scopes with glowing green lenses. LazyLiMy even included an alternative mask choice in the form of the Kit Fox 1.5 mask, which uses a visor with a line-shaped lens.
The costume’s torso and arms recreate the low-profile tactical armored look by using the Siegebreak Grips and vest-like Legatus Cuirass, while the Hunter Exotic St0mp-EE5 armor adds a more subtle flair when equipped with the Astrostrides ornament. Finally, the Couturier Clock completes the look, as its hood is kept down, preserving theSplinter Cell-style outline. Fellow players praised the costume and its creator for its appearance, and also for including recommendations for the player’s ship and Ghost Shell, two aspects often ignored by players creating custom outfits. LazyLiMy recommended the premium-priced Alfa-Zulu jumpship for its resemblance to a modern military helicopter, while using the Golf-Tango Ghost Shell for its ability to make the player’s Ghost look like an ordinary recon drone.
While theSplinter Cellseries has been dormant for a long time, the popularity of a costume based on it present in an entirely different game shows its enduring influence on players across the gaming public. Ubisoft would do well to keep up progress on its plannedSplinter Cellremake, the better to refresh that legacy in players' minds.
