Ep 17: Destiny 2 Director reflects on Lightfall's rocky reception
Friends Per Second
Billy Zane's Titanic
"I love him so much. My first exposure to Billy Zane was through the phantom," he says. "Every scene he's in, he just. So good." The actor also talks about Titanic and God of War creator Jimi Cameron.
Ralph here. An important note is that this podcast was recorded before the sudden and tragic passing of Lance Reddick, film and television star and the voice of many iconic videogame characters including Commander Zavala of Destiny. I'm in the tower right now paying tribute to him as I write this and it's incredibly moving to see so many guardians gather to pay their respects. They're not saluting a videogame avatar; they're saluting a person who brought so much joy to others, one who was a true master of his craft and a thoroughly decent human being. RIP Lance. You will be greatly missed.

Let's meet our hosts:
- Jake Baldino (aka the Before You Buy Guy) is pretty much the most watched reviewer on YouTube across both Gameranx and his personal channel (https://www.youtube.com/c/JakeBaldino). If you're obsessed with Delorians, The Mummy and Pizza you can discuss that stuff with him directly over on Twitter: @JakeBaldino
- Lucy James is a Senior Producer at Gamespot and a Creative Producer at Giant Bomb. She's actually, like, experienced and credentialed and has real life skills and stuff, while the rest of the gang would be funemployed if the YT algorithm didn't kiss them for random, inexplicable reasons.
- Jirard (aka The Completionist: https://www.youtube.com/c/ThatOneVide...) has been doing YouTube since before Noah wore short pants. Over the course of more than a decade, Jirard has completed HUNDREDS of games to bring you the quality of review that almost no other reviewer dare bring you, getting the 100% completion trophy for every title before putting pen to paper. Jirard has a let's play channel and in his spare time he fires off the occasional hot-take over on Twitter: @TheCompletionist
- Skill Up used to work at McDonalds but he got fired for skimming too many chicken nuggets. He says he regrets it since he's never had a better job since.
