right, not native heat vision, i checked P1 where he takes the mask off and you see the transition from heat to normal vision, and he is still able to track and fight, he is not effectively blind. he didn’t see dutch in P1 because he was hidden in all the brush as well so he couldn’t pick him out. if he was standing there upright he would have been seen
even with some stupid blood cooling plant, she was standing next to the fire, where heat would be radiating and bouncing off her, making her visible in heat vision, and still she is able to just stand there and shoot him in the head. it would make sense if she used it to help camo herself, and used cover to hide and sneak up on him, not just standing there in the open
i don’t buy the brain dead thing, he was looking down examining the head he just cut off, the shot seemed to barely glance the top-back of the pred’s head, looked like it just knocked the mask off, it didn’t go through brain matter, he just seemed angry afterwards, no way he his literally brain dead, that would have been the end right there
