The memes are hilarious, but I’m surprised how few people seem to realize that these guys aren’t going for killing shots. Cayde’s pushing Crow into a position where he can confront him face to face.
Crow’s fanning the hammer to suppress him while he tries to find better cover!

She's also just awesome to work with. Hilarious, generous, collaborative, and a total pro. Every project I've worked with her on, she has hand-made gifts for every person involved in her mocap or vo sessions. Debra forever.
Today we celebrate Debra Wilson, legendary actress & comedian who carried MADtv on her back and is now doing the same in video games!
Featured in games like Star Wars Jedi, Call of Duty, Halo Infinite, Gears 5 and more, she’s become a recognizable face in gaming. 👑

One clarifying detail: the first cinematic featuring your guardian in TFS will always be helmet *on* (you'll see why) and then you'll have a chance to tweak to your heart's delight, if you so desire.
If you missed your window before down time, you're still gravy. 👍
Btw, if you choose to set your guardian to “helmet off”, you can see your newly customized face animated in a bunch of the cines in The Final Shape.
