I can see where they were going with this, but...no.
Edit: Now before you start fondling your nuts, and go all keyboard warrior on me, let me just say; I don't hate the character of Failsafe. It's just the evil twin, honestly. I like the idea behind it, but oh my god, her lines makes me roll my eyes. But hey, if you like her, power to ya!

I can understand what you mean by cringe, but the universe of Destiny is peppered with cheesy lines and corny scenarios. Even in Destiny 1 there were situations that would fit perfectly into any 80's Saturday morning cartoon. "Keep it together, [i]girl.[/i]" I mean, honestly. You just have to forget all the internet cynicism and enjoy the game like a kid.
