I should not need to explain this one.

That's why good games give you the option to remove helmets during cutscenes, or just hide them altogether.

ideally i'd want games to have NPCs react to if you're wearing a helmet or not, and a real risk of getting attacked when in populated areas, so you have a choice to make whether you want to keep your helmet on or take it off (and that should be a simple button press)

that way there's a bit of added flavour, and you have an actual reason to see your character without a helmet.

Seems like a logical fallacy to me.

No. I want to see my cool helmet. Games that remove helmets and (all customization) during cutscenes annoy me.

or just hide them altogether.

I read that as in they either remove the helmets during cutscenes or they give you an option for selecting if you want to do that. But sure, thanks for the compliment...
