Sea of Thievesis a game that has done commendably well in learning from its shortcomings by altering its play style and implementing new content to keep things fresh. WhileRarehas achieved this in a variety of ways, the cutting of already established content is a sad but necessary byproduct that is sometimes implemented.

With the cutting of certain content from the game in order to make way for fresher content inSea of Thieves, in-game achievements for cut content can be affected quite significantly. Achievements directly relating to content that is no longer accessible are completely non-unlockable, unable to be attained by anyone bar the lucky few who had already unlocked them.
