Doing so would probably result in quite a lot of disappointed people, hardly anyone would be satisfied. Keeping him faceless, just with a voice, allows for individual interpretation and makes everyone equally right and wrong.
Bungie did it with Master Chief too, and that was the right decision as well.

What are you talking about? Are you trying to tell me there's something inside all that glorious armor? I don't care if Bungie ruins the entire game, I'll buy DLC 3 if it includes his helmet.

4 RepliesShaxx is a shark, the last two letters were censored to hide the secret. The world wouldn't accept him.

1 ReplyLike Osiris lmao, dude looked like a beast in the trailer. We were catfished

2 RepliesPersonally, I couldn’t care less if they revealed Shaxx’s face. I would love for more dialogue and story elements of him in PVE activities. As to why, I’m referring to the Sunbreaker Class mission where you hear him say “Shot out of a friggin anti aircraft gun” Just him saying “friggin” warms my heart. Could you imagine if we were driving a Drake and he yelled “Sometimes a tank is better than light. WREAK HAVOC HAHAH!”

Do you think he keeps his memes spicy?

eris's disappearance confirmed... hid behind shaxx's mask after finding him dead at his stall... explains how he had the ability to make his own raze-lighter..

5 RepliesOn a semi-unrelated note, who here thinks Idris Elba would be the perfect live-action Shaxx?

6 RepliesIt would be disappointing just like it was for Lord Saladin. Iron Lord badass turned out looking like a badly aged male super model.

Take off the helm and Shaxx is actually Sweeper Bot
-
I like to imagine Shaxx is actually a bear in a mansuit. [spoiler]Hawthorne is right to be worried.[/spoiler]

5 RepliesHeh, me too... [spoiler]PLEASE HELP ME BUNGIE I CAN'T EVEN SEE MY OWN GODDAMN FACE[/spoiler]

Watch Shaxx be White with Silver Hair and missing an Eye from a battle with an Ahamkara, which would explain why he yells, so he can't hear the Delusions of the Ahamkara.

1 ReplyWhat happens if his face is literally the same face of the actor I'd be happy
-
3 RepliesShaxx's commentary is my favorite. The multikills in D1 were epic and he would lose it on the seventh column.
-
2 RepliesYeah, and Osiris should have kept his mask on... sigh
-
They won't do that. It would take 10 developers 2 months to do something like that.
-
When he takes off his helmet he's wearing another helmet underneath.
-
Shaxx doesn’t have a face he was born with the helmet on which was hard on his mother

Edited by Criewolf: 5/7/2018 7:50:40 AMActually multiple books have described the Master Cheif in detail, eye color, hair color, skin color, and that must’ve been with the first set of Eric Nylund novels over 10 years ago. Shaxx will eventually be revealed. It’s not a matter of if they wanted him relatable to the player. They simply did not have enough time/resources nor want to put forth the effort of fleshing out a character who amounted to little more than a ringside announcer. Honestly his voice actor from TWD would probably end up a good fit although he resembles helmet-less Lord Saladin a little too much so I could be wrong.

I would at least like to know if hes human or not. Hes a fking Giant!

Shaxx is on the Walking Dead.... just an fyi. now on fear the walking dead. Black guy with the staff.
