So context for Cayde: in the OG Destiny game, there were vanguard leaders for each of the 3 classes, and Cayde was the leader of the hunters. A huge criticism of the first game at launch was that there weren’t many memorable characters, so bungie made Cayde into a sarcastic, quippy rogue who is very laid back. For hunters, to be the vanguard leader sucks, as Hunters always prefer to be out in the wild fighting, and the vanguard comes with responsibility. So unlike the warlocks and Titans, the hunters have something called the vanguard dare: essentially, it is a bet that hunters don’t want to lose, as Cayde made a bet with his friend, the former hunter vanguard, and lost the bet when his friend died, and to honor the bet and his friend, took up the vanguard mantle. This is why he states that the vanguard is the best bet he ever lost. Another bit of context, Caydes gun is named the Ace of Spades, named after his son Ace, who he can’t really remember, as all guardians are brought to life as guardians with no knowledge of their previous life, but Cayde was able to piece some of it together. In the present day story of Destiny, no hunter has filled the role of hunter vanguard, not because they don’t want it (which they don’t) but because of how beloved Cayde was to them. In fact, for a long time, no hunter was seen at the tower for quite a while, as they all went into the wild to mourn Cayde. Caydes killer, Uldren, was killed by the player, but was revived as a guardian, thus having no memory of his life as uldren. He takes the name Crow, and whenever another guardian sees his face, they attempt to attack him or they insult him, causing him to always wear a mask. As of currently, the player has come to accept crow, recognizing that uldren is dead, and crow is an individual who wants to help. It also honors Cayde in a way, as Cayde was not the type of person to hold a grudge against people who committed crimes in their past lives

Cayde's Voice actor always was Nathan Fillion, but for this custscenes, they couldn't get him due to him working on other things, so they asked Nolan North to do Cayde's voice due to how good he is at imitating people's voices, and the fact that you hear him and immediately think it's Nathan Fillion speaks volumes to that fact. Edit: I see you looked it up. I commented too soon.

[@xmaracx]

So in destiny, there are 3 races, humans, awakened (humans that evolved due to lore stuff) and exo (humans who stuffed their consciousness in robots, what cayde is) that the player can pick. Cayde, and all players and lots of the prominent characters in the story are guardians. Dead people who were chosen by the traveler. (Which is basically a giant moon that lets ppl have those powers) The traveler sends over a ghost (lil cute robot guy) who channels the travelers power (known as light) to revive the guardians and boost their power. In caydes last stand you could see his ghost get destroyed, which meant the ghost couldnt heal or revive cayde any more. (You see it happen after the crash.) As for who ace is. Ace is Caydes son from long ago, while he was human. The problem with exos is that as the consciousness is is transferred to a robot body, the body gets damaged over time and you gotta do it again. As that happens more and more memories get lost. So cayde remembers he had a son, but he has trouble remembering, he also remembers he had a wife. His revolver is named after his son, the ace of spades (which is also a reference to the card/song). The guy who killed cayde is being manipulated by a corrupted entity pulling him with an impersonation of his sister, who was a leader (queen of the reef) who died in destiny 1 during a big battle. (Also the sister wasnt an entirely good person, it was more of a antihero type faction.) EDIT yes the player character never talked up until now.

[@johnhalo8726]

Just a small correction, Ace and "Queen" (his wife) was never real, it was an idea one of Cayde's past selves made up to keep himself going. Also, the player character has talked before but this is the first time in Destiny 2.

[@JasonOlsan]

This series of clips has about 5 years of context and impact before it, so there is quite a bit of build up to this point. Here's a few points: - Uldren Sov -- the killer -- is brother to Mara Sov. - Mara Sov is queen of the Awoken -- the blue-tinged people of who Uldren and Zavala (the character at the end who's voiced by Lance Reddick). - Uldren and his sister were last seen about 3 years back during a large scale space fight known as the Battle of Saturn (effectively it's Normandy from WW2, but in space). Mara created the opening for the good guys to breach the Dreadnaught, a bad guy Hive ship, using all of her magical power and Uldren was part of the initial attackers. He was presumed dead during the attack and his sister hadn't been seen since. - Fast forward to now. Uldren, presumed dead, has actually been held in the Prison of Elders (an Awoken-run prison for the baddest of the bad, also where this whole video takes place). We (the player), didn't know he was alive. Apparently he's not only alive, but he's been imprisoned in the Awoken's prison -- and, as you saw, he made some friends in there! - Petra Venj (the Awoken lady with the eye patch), Cayde, and the warden were the only people that knew about this. Lots of extraneous details on that one, so I'll just skip that part. The only relevance is that they knew he was here. We (the player) did not. - Cayde-6 was the Hunter Vanguard. The Vanguard is a bunch of well-meaning guardians that are trying to protect humanity (which also encompasses the Awoken and Exos) from the many forces that want to destroy us. He earned the title by losing a bet. This bet was called the Vanguard Dare. That's the bet he mentioned. Zavala is the Titan Vanguard and Ikora (yup, that's Gina Torres in this video). - When Cayde-6 crashed on the bottom of the prison, you may have noticed a little robot appear and glow for a moment, followed by Cayde-6 digging himself out. That's Cayde-6's ghost. Guardians have ghosts, which can resurrect guardians after they die. This is an important meta mechanic in the game -- it explains why we can keep going after we die/lose. Notice how Cayde-6 was glowing for a moment? He died in that crash -- probably knew he would too. Death isn't an impediment for a guardian. - Well, death isn't an impediment for a guardian as long as their ghost lives. That's why the sniper took how the ghost and not Cayde. If Cayde went down, the ghost would revive him. Uldren wanted Cayde dead. Once the ghost was destroyed, the next death would be Cayde's last. - Nolan North, the VO actor for this final expansion, is a VO legend. Very talented. But it's hard to follow up such a personality as Nathan Fillion. I think he did his best to finish out the role, but Nathan's patter and cadence are truly unique. Nathan may not bring a lot of vocal range to his characters (they all sound like Nathan Fillion), but Nathan's talent is how he delivers those lines. And man, does he deliver. It was a bit jarring, but I think Nolan did a great job trying to bring Cayde-6 to life. If the character hadn't been as well established, he might have tried to make it his own. Nolan is the voice of Ghost, the floaty little robot that Peter Dinklage previously voiced. - Also, that quiet male voice in the suit? That's us (the player). We don't talk often in the game. It can be kind of weird, but it makes some business sense. There are 3 races we can play (awoken, human, and exo -- the robot types like Cayde-6) and there are 6 localized languages for the game. Considering each race can also be male or female, that means each line needs to be recorded 3 (number of races) x 2 (number of supported voice types -- "masculine" or "feminine") x 6 (number of languages recorded) = 36 times. They usually only give us about 2-4 lines per expansion. We're like Silent Bob. That's a bunch, but not all of the context of this video. If you have any more questions, let me know! Also, there's a ton of lore videos on KZbin by a gent named "My Name is Byf". I seriously am addicted to Destiny lore, so I'm happy to help in any way I can. :)

[@CaptainPilipinas]

the 'player' is called 'The Guardian' (well Gameplay RPG-wise, it is up to you (not you Jason or me) to role your way in and immerse yourself with 'The Guardian'and having your own name in to fit) within Destiny. or the 'Player-Guardian', or for some of us few we call 'Guardian-players' being us separate a bit from the in-verses Guardian-characters.

The character at the end is the player (the person playing the game). In Destiny, the player almost never speaks (especially in Destiny 2, where our character is almost completely mute), which is why the character speaking here is considered significant. The primary (real life) reason we're mute is because the story is a series of expansions, and the developers (bungie) don't want to keep calling back voice actors for every expansion (too expensive and impractical). Instead of calling back a handful of voice actors, we just have a single voice speak for us, our ghost (the floating stellated-shaped robot). In Destiny 1, we weren't completely mute, but this is likely when they realized juggling voice actors between expansions was an issue, so they completely committed to muting player characters for the 2nd game (with minimal exceptions).

I hope this helps! :D Edit: That character who never talks is the player. Most games where you don't play as a premade character tends to be a blank slate for you to control.

[@TA3DArtist]

There’s not a lot of context in the games to begin with by the way, so don’t kick yourself. They give you just enough story so you know where you’re aiming your gun but never enough to really get invested in anything. Also, totally Gina Torres.

Quick recap : there was a big war 3 years ago (5 from today, 3 back then) in witch the guy shooting Cayde fought as a soldier, he was still good back then. His sister, the Queen of the Reef (just take her as a bug power) died in it, hence the joke "How's your sister?", he didn't, but he got corrupted. Back on Earth, Cayde, together with Zavala and Ikora, are the Vanguard, they "protect the planet" even though we do all the work. We, with Cayde got called to the Prison of Elders, the place if the action, then you've already seen what happened. We all were good friends with Cayde, that's why his death shocked us pretty bad. But yeah, this is the important lore behind this masterpiece from the eyes of a player

Some context: In this cutscene Cayde was responding to a distress call about a riot at a super space prison called the Prison of Elders, where they store a ton of super big baddie space aliens, As you saw/looked up, for this scene they got Nolan North instead of Nathan due to scheduling issues, but the quips and jokes are very much part of Cayde's character. For many of the players (mainly us Hunters as he was there since the beginning) it was heart wrenching to lose Cayde, to be honest i still cry. The player character NEVER talks, and its become a joke that when they DO actually talk - shits about to go down big time. Discord: you could do a random drawing to screen share and chat with someone (or maybe just one of your mods or gamer friends) that can give you some context or answer questions during one of your reactions :) OR as some others have stated you could live stream the reaction and talk to the chat.

[@thepackupnorth2538]

I definitely think having someone who has experienced the Destiny 1 & 2 to sit along and explain things along the way would really help you to understand the depth and gravity of what's happening in the cutscenes. For example, the Player Character speaking only happens when its an important moment now because at the start of D1 they spoke way more and it dulled down what would have been way more impactful moments. It wouldnt be far fetched to say that Cayde was largely the fan favorite character, and him dying was by far the best motivator that Bungie could give us to hunt down the Scorned Barons and Uldren Sov(The guys that were responsible for killing Cayde and the Guy who Pulled the trigger). There's such more lore wise that's going on than we got through gameplay, but just having a long time player along would be a good idea.

[@ChaosArdor]

Asking for an explanation on things going on for the sake of context is a lengthy challenge all in itself. By the time Forsaken came out, all the characters had been established through Destiny 1, had their own stories, their history, their lore. To sum it all up up to this point is a daunting task.

[@BelladoriReigns]

The person who spoke and said "Uldren Sov is mine" is our character who has remained in a vow of silence for 7 entire years. and the death of one of his closest friends cause him to speak.

[@IDIC_N7]

Having a Zoom meeting or any kind of face time chat, thing, with a fan of the franchise would be a fun thing to do. How you go about picking the person for the video would be the challenge. I'd be nice to have a new fan each time for a different franchise, but having a "designated fan" would probably be safer. Either way, that's up to you. I have absolutely no knowledge of Destiny so I have just as many questions as you. But any questions you have regarding Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Halo, Apex Legends/Titanfall, Overwatch, Team Fortress 2, Elder Scrolls or Half-Life, I can certainly chime in. Great video by the way! I thought it was amusing that you were watching an ad for Starfield and as soon as you skipped the rest I had to watch the exact same ad on my end. Trippy.

[@theodorekalfagiannis7506]

I think the jokes are supposed to come off as forced, Cayde saying jokes was his coping mechanism for stress. It's a part of his character to joke when things look insurmountable. So him making worse jokes the longer the fight went on, was supposed to symbolise his subconscious acceptance to death.

[@Darkfallen1989]

i will say honestly " my name is byf " is the perfect youtuber to understand everything behind destiny with its lore.

[@GhostTheWarCriminal]

8:17 ace is the name of his son, if you don't know, exo's (cayde is an exo) are people who used to be human, when someone become an exo they lose all their memories, but cayde actually had a notebook that had most of his memories on it (including his son) but he doesn't know how his son looks nor does ace know how cayde looks, so his son is probably dead.

[@Anim1013]

A lot of the context of this scene is missing on purpose; it's during the story where we find out how/why Uldren Sov (guy who killed Cayde) is in prison and who tho monsters Cayde killed are. Before this, the last info we had on Uldren stated he was in the system becoming the leader of a bunch of Fallen (race of space pirates) and this is our introduction to the Scorn, the monsters.

[@FearZ507]

the reason why cayde said speechless typical was because in destiny 2 your character doesn't talk into the forsaken dlc when cayde died giving your character a reason to talk or in other word bungie couldn't afford voice actors for the characters.but in the lore you character loses his/her voice but after having cayde die the character regains its voice back.also when cayde looked at his gun a said im coming home ace well he named his gun after his son that died in his past life as a human before he became a guardian he knew he had a son because he got resurrected with a journal called to ace after reading the journal he found out he had a son and continued writing to ace in his journal to oneday give to his son.

[@cayden1warrior604]

Basically heres a little context, cayde and the guardian were trying to stop a prison riot on the outer rim, this takes place in space, uldren, yhe guy that shot cayde, started the riot, freed the barons and caused a lot of stuff. We track down uldten and kill his barons one by one.

[@emti29]

Our guardian rarely talks in destiny 2. So when he spoke about wanting revenge, it gave an impact that our guardian is really serious in taking down uldren. Also gina torres voices ikora the bald girl. Zavala is voiced by lance riddick.

[@necrocoffee5626]

Cayde narrated most missions and scenes so player attachment was pretty high so the scene was impactful. This shot all these scenes telling nathan fillion nothing at the time. He was fired and replaced without being told.

[@Nathan-sf3ub]

In Foresaken, Cayde was voiced by Nolan North for a few lines. Nolan voiced Nathan Drake in Uncharted who was designed very much after Nathan Fillion

[@brycemauger2611]

When Cade refers to Ace, its his son. Cade was human, but due to injuries the only way to save him was to put in into a exoskeleton body. His son Passed away from old age long ago.

[@chess629]

Cayde-6 will never be forgotten 😭

[@eyesofobsidian9222]

Ok i haven't seen anyone mention this but lore wise "Ace" is ,presumably Cayde's son and he named his gun the Ace Of Spades both in reference to the card and to remember his son! Also i have seen many people recommend My name is Byf for lore videos but also i believe theres a few short videos on the entire story of destiny being as short as 15 minutes to as long as 3 hours but that just depends on how much detail you want! P.s. Loving the vids keep up the awesome work!

[@XMorbidReignX]

"Ace" is a shorthand name for the gun, Ace of Spades, however its believed that 'Ace' was also the name of his child that, despite 7 resets (way too much to explain, robot brain needs to reboot and wipe data) he seems to remember. That said, it's also believed that the child never existed or at least, the child he believes was his, didn't. Moreover, the cards ; Ace of Spades, King of Hearts etc, they were a way for Cayde to remember things. I believe 'spades' were weapon stashes as an example. Basically the story behind Cayde alone could fill a 4 movie series

[@supapeachx]

The hardest part of getting context for Destiny story is it's mainly in written form and some of the videos that do exist count on you having some knowledge of the written story. There's been rumors circulating about a possible future destiny tv series but nothing set in stone. Regarding the voice acting, yes it's Nolan North doing his best Nathan Fillion as Cayde impression. I'm kinda assuming because they knew it was so few lines and because Nathan Fillion was busy staring in a new broadcast tv show (The rookie) they asked Nolan North to fill in since he was already on the payroll as ghost. It's funny you mentioned Nathan Fillion in an uncharted video because in the uncharted video games the main character, Nathan Drake, is voiced by Nolan North! They've basically done impressions of each other at this point. Fans of the video game series had been fancasting Nathan Fillion to play the role of Nathan Drake if a live action adaptation was ever made. There is an uncharted movie being made however since they are going with an origin story they cast Tom Holland (spider-man) P.S. yes it was Gina Torres.

[@ronniearnold9165]

Yes. In the past, Destiny didn't have your playable character with any dialogue.

[@visual_chris]

the guy at the end is your actual character.. the cinematic is specific for each person as they all have different skins which is sick as it involves you a lot in the story

[@TheBrisinger108]

Your bang on with 17:15 So from destiny 1 to 2 our main character never spoke and it was a common complaint in cutscenes like these. There is a lot of backstory missed that would make this cinematic make SO MUCH more sense. But Uldren sov (the guy who shot cayde) is the brother of the dead queen Mara Sov who was trying to create peace but sacrificed herself to save the reef (the pile of rocks zavala mentions) at the end of the first game taking place with the expansion The Taken King. Uldren was locked up shortly after that by petra (the woman with the eyepatch at the start) as she thought he was insane and a danger to the reef as he thought he could still hear and see visons of his sister and tried desperately to find a way to contact or find her. whilst locked up He planned the escape taking the barons (the 8 'Fallen') and became known as the crow. his pretty much the douchebag in the game and has good intent but goes about it all maliciously. - As for the addiction to Nathan i actually prefered the new cayde narrator i think there was a mix of trying to fill the shoes nathan had left as he created such a loveable sarcastic robot but also the scripting

[@thatlonewolfguy2878]

To answer your question, yes that is Gina Torres, and Lance Reddick voices Zavala, pretty great voice acting cast, and also Cayde's lines are his character, he's the Deadpool/Ryan Reynolds of Destiny, also the guy who speaks at the end is the Guardian you play as (if you pick a male character) voiced by Matthew Mercer who most people know from either his D&D games on Critical Role or as the english dub voice of Captain Levi in Attack on Titan

[@Celestial2107]

The reason it was so impactful when the guardian spoke is because he/she barely talked to begin with

[@justinfulton1056]

Not sure if this was mentioned, this time period was when Fillion was in The Rookie (season 1). I love seeing reactions like this (even years after dropping on YT).

[@blaizecato8801]

[@CaptainPilipinas]

May be best to just step down perhaps? there are other potentials out there who might want to genuinely stick around long enough.

[@JohnDoe-vu4ho]

Nathan Fillian couldn't reprise his roll as Cayde-6 due to scheduling conflicts. He was filming the series "The Rookie" at the time.

[@stigmatoxin1310]

context: Guardians are humanoid warriors with cosmic powers who fight to reclaim the solar system from aliens. Cayde-6, the robot guy with the jokes, was one of the leaders of the Guardians. his death is impactful because he's been with us since the beginning of the first game, which came out 7 years ago. so he's been around for a while. Cayde went on the mission with the Player character and another person named Petra to deal with a massive alien prison riot. but while in the middle of it, Petra discovers that certain high priority prisoners have been released. thats how she concludes that the prison riot is actually a prison break. so Cayde goes all the way down to take care of the problem himself. now, the thing about Guardians is that they have small machine-like entities called "Ghosts" that can heal and even resurrect them from death. as you saw, Cayde's Ghost was killed by an alien sniper. the leader of that group of inmates, the one who killed Cayde, his name is Uldren Sov, with whom the Guardians have some history with. and yes, that was Gina Torres. she was a voice actor for the character Ikora. but recently, the character has been recast. and actually, Destiny has a history of recasting for characters.

[@PureChaos69]

So some info about Cayde for you! While he was voiced by Nathan Fillion 95% of the time, he was busy filming the Rookie during this time, so Nolan North (who voices the Ghost that replaced Dinklebots voice) replaced him for this scene, doing his best Nathan impression. Cayde was a human with a gambling addiction, who got in with the wrong crowd and wracked up some debt that he would never be able to pay off. He had a wife and a child (a son i believe, named Ace), who he had to protect. This man (Clovis Bray) was building Exo's, where he would transfer a human consciousness into the body of a robot. (most of these experiments were highly illegal and inhumane, disgusting stuff tbh, but it happened Off-World so it was technically legal....) Clovis offered Cayde a chance to clear all his debts if he helped him with an experiment, and as a result, he turned Cayde into an Exo. He's known as Cayde-6 because he's had his System rebooted 6 times, each time scrambles more and more memories. Eventually Cayde was killed, where he later got revived by his Ghost (named Sundance, the one that gets shot in this clip), where he had no further memory of his past life. I'm not exactly sure how he regained memories/information about his past life, but some people speculate it was actually a made up fantasy in his head, and he truly doesn't remember who he was or even who his family was. Regardless, he was revived by his ghost a few hundred years later, which means: His wife and Son are long gone now. Due to his scrambled memories of being rebooted 6 times, he used Playing Cards as a system to remember things, and the Ace of Spades was used to remember his Son (that again, may or may not have actually existed, we're not sure?) which is why the idea is so important to him, and why he named his gun the "Ace of Spades". Eventually there was this Hunter (the three classes are Titans, Warlocks, and Hunters, Cayde is a hunter.) who joined the Vanguard (the government comprised of Guardians such as Titans and Warlocks.) Hunters are such free spirits that none of them want to be stuck behind a desk working at the Vanguard, so a Hunter in the Vanguard was VERY rare. This Hunter working for the vanguard made a bet with Cayde, we don't know what the bet was, but its called the "Vanguard Dare", and well...this hunter died, and Cayde lost the bet, forcing him to take his spot as the new Hunter Vanguard. Cayde was losing his mind being forced to stay there in the vanguard, so he hid caches of supplies and treasures throughout the galaxy just for fun, and eventually he had the opportunity to come with us (the guardian) to stop a prison break, where he was SO eager to fight that he gets himself killed here. Without his Ghost, he can't come back anymore. Eventually we hunt down his killer, take back the gun, kill him with it, and become the rightful owner of the Ace of Spades. We find some of his caches he hid, and he left a voice recording with them, addressing his killer. He never knew who would kill him, so he recorded many for different people who he thought might kill him one day, and as sad as it is, half those people were actually his friends, who he thought could/would kill him one day. Including us. Now, with Cayde gone, we haven't had a new hunter in the vanguard ever since, and there's a small plaque of his gun in the Vanguard to Honor him. There's obviously many more details but thats the summary of his story! i hope that cleared some things up for you!

[@PureChaos69]

Oh and the three people in the room at the end, around his coffin, were the Vanguard and Us (the player), all of which he assumed would/could kill him. Also the song playing in that end scene was named "Remembrance" and the full song is incredibly beautiful

[@suprizeoptomist4680]

Part of it is that Cayde-6 is in large part based on Nathan Fillion's delivery (see also Buck in the Halo series), and when Bungee failed to get him back for the expansion, Cayde's voice actor had to emulate Fillion's delivery. It's honestly a case of "the best we could do" since bungee failed to get the character's original VA back for any more Destiny. TBH, compare this video to the "they stole all your stuff" ad from the original destiny 2 release. Obviously a different atmosphere, and yes, the writers made Cayde-6 that awkward guy who makes dad jokes.
