Destiny and our helmets.

Do you think that we'll be able to take off our helmets?

  • TL;DR: No. Long form answer: Bungie wants us to project ourselves into the armor, into the Guardians. It's not like we're playing [url=http://andsohesaid.psychedelico.net/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/video-game-protagonists.jpg]a specific character[/url] like Master Chief or Noble Six. We're making our own stories here. I would not be the least bit surprised to see the Guardians' character be identical to ODST's Rookie. They want us to connect to the game in our own way. Part of this derives from Destiny's goal. It's an inherently social game. It requires an internet connection to play, and there will be a singleplayer/cooperative campaign/exploration mode and a competitive multiplayer mode. This is not necessary a plot-driven game. It has a story, and it has characters, but the game (what we've seen so far of it anyway) is driven by the player, not a script or a mission director. I think it could be a lot like Mass Effect in that sense. Sorry for a roundabout explanation. But yeah, I feel like the answer to your question is a solid "no".
