Lord Shaxx screaming "Fight forever guardian!":[spoiler][url]https://gameclipscontent-d3008.xboxlive.com/0009000007292f9b-9ef5b0e4-e3bf-4eb5-98f9-6da818881193/GameClip-Original.MP4?sv=2015-12-11&sr=b&si=DefaultAccess&sig=e%2B6UrlOl7bsePscF8yqW6KySkomfo6TUEBk8hxn9rb4%3D&__gda__=1500168152_84db42b04045f2d7c87d25d6220a448c[/url][/spoiler]
I just want to say this now, but I absolutely love the commentary Lord Shaxx's character provides during Crucible matches. Lennie James did a pretty fantastic job providing character to someone who could have easily ended up being very flat and boring.
His commentary is pretty on the low over all and isn't usually that obvious. For someone like myself who is pretty 'floofy' in Crucible matches, I'm not paying too much attention to things to let his voice over distract me. Well technically it distracts me because I hear it and tune in to it, but it isn't distracting me from something serious.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To get straight to the point, I hope that at some point down the line users will be given the option to disable Crucible commentary so that Lord Shaxx's dialogue doesn't have a chance to pose a distraction to those who are more serious with their Crucible play.
With the route being taken for Destiny 2 that is erring on the side of competitive and team-focused game play, giving the players the option to disable voice-over that may or may not pose a distraction could only be seen as a benefit. His voice-over doesn't include vital information, it is mostly a read out of medals earned and kill streaks, all non-vital information.
I would even go farther and stand to believe that removing the medal fanfare is also a fair step in the right direction. Unnecessary, but it wouldn't hurt. Again, purely a player choice not a global change.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TL;DR : Reread the above post.
I just want to reiterate that this would preferably be an option within the audio menu, and wouldn't be disabled by default. It is just like having the helmet on, helmet off function. Purely preference.
[spoiler]I included a link to the IGN news page that features all of the official video footage for their month long reveal. Plenty of Crucible footage that showcases dialogue from Lord Shaxx.[/spoiler]
