Grave Mind & High Charity are the actual scariest levels of Halo 2 when you realize that in the background, far off-camera, literally billions of sentient/sapient civilians are getting killed and infected by the flood in mass while you're trying to make due on your mission. You're literally watching one of the, in-universe, greatest losses of life in (in-universe) history unfold before your eyes.
@@mr.voidroy6869 Very fair point. Truth does say "the reward for all your toil and all your sacrifice is near at hand" right when the flood show up. Case can be made that was the only truthful thing he ever said. It's like when the Reapers took out the Batarians.
@@mr.voidroy6869there are still innocent people that live in the covenant even species that were forced to be in the covenant, the military sure but the people don't deserve to be punished for the evil atrocities committed by the covenant
@@levicarpenter5509 If you support/vote for a government that performs evil atrocities then you yourself are also evil. But for sure there would be aliens that were innocent (like children).
What I loved the most was the grave mind referring to chief as machine and nerve while the arbiter was called flesh and faith. Really shows how in the lore we might get some Human-Sanghelli factions
Obviously a human flood survival game would be sweet, but just imagine a covenant, maybe even grunt or jackal survival game in high charity during the flood takeover? Could be so scary and also add a whole new level of lore with it and just be a solid game
For a few years now I have contemplated on a specific story of a goofy, misunderstood but highly intelligent and crafty grunt called Nim Yak, traversing the city “suburbs”, industrial centres, martial zones and outer rims of HC trying to survive the Civil War and later the Flood infection, tasked with an important top secret mission that reveals a dark plot twist, that Nim Yak struggles with before trying to rectify, finally resulting in him fighting desperately to survive and escape HC. The story was to be told in a survival horror game, with extreme emphasis on the horror 1/3-1/2way through as the infection breaks out. Unfortunately the story has stayed in my head as I haven’t got the skill or money to start any kind of meaningful development. Something I thought deeply on was deeply exploring the common districts of HC: housing, traffic areas, industrial zones, commercial zones, breeding areas, drug dens, brothels, underground black market zones, etc. Dark and seedy areas I wondered upon especially when I was a young kid, looking upon the central city for long amounts of time when playing as MC in the HC mission of H2. I’d imagine them booming with social and commercial activity, then during the civil war rife with chaos and bloodshed, then extremely eery and horrifying during the infection as scattered remnants of covenant forces from both sides of the Schism hole up in makeshift-security trying to survive the onslaught of the Flood. I’m detailing this very heavily, somewhat sharing too much, but I think someone with better means of creating such a thing could do with some form of inspiration from an extreme Halo fan such as myself
@@b22blackeagle20 thanks man. If u wanna read more I’ll leave this here :) They choose him for the mission in preparation of the civil war as he is an unassuming individual. The start of the game would show a cutscene where Nim Yak is being tasked by an Elite commander, who assaults the young Grunt to intimidate him into compliance for the mission as Nim is initially fearful and rejecting (the story over time shows Nim Yak against severe odds, and occurrences like this establish that atmosphere) Through the first half Nim Yak finds another Grunt, Bik Lom, who he partners with throughout sections after that. In a specific scenario, before the infection, Nim comes across a Brute major who has caught wind of the top secret package that Nim has been tasked with transporting (Nim was told the package was to be used to save a massive portion of the Covenant population, with the majority being Unggoy, but the truth is actually much different). This Brute is a primary story point, the intention of his addition to create extreme tension through gameplay and storytelling: for example, in a cutscene introducing the Brute, he eats the remnants of a Grunt as Nim hides in a vent while travelling through a section. Anyway, during a climax of this story point where Nim seems to be at deaths door against the Brute, captured and battered, Bik saves him, establishing their brotherhood. However… even Bik has a secret to hide. The Flood sections are where the true horror starts. The first sections of the game were tension against vicious enemies and odds (primary focus on small enemy numbers, supplemented by high fear and risk), who although are terrifying, they are at least sentient and predictable. But the 2nd half is terror survival, reminiscent of Outlast or RE7 Biohazard. The battle isn’t taken to the Flood, such as Master Chiefs story, but instead under the radar. Nim’s craftiness and cunning though allow him to traverse through this nightmare, although coming out the other end traumatised and completely reborn. Nim encounters old friends who have been infected, Flood worship cults, mass graves, and tasks so out of hand they seem literally impossible but are necessary for his survival. The end is Nim’s attempt to find an escape vessel that he can use to return to the Unggoy home planet Balaho. God I wish I could create this game, and give the fans a masterpiece. Maybe I should start on writing it, even for myself. Thanks for reading man :)
@@DonRoyalX I'd say go for it. That's really good for a start and basis in which to go off of. Not sure how far modsing has come, I've seen a few things here and there for some of it but could be an idea to try and reach out to some modders. I'm unsure how well the playable grunt aspect would be but even for now, maybe could be swapped around and play as an elite who is tasked with watching him and staying in the shadows. And if ODST has mods then that could be a very good engine/atmosphere to go off of. Just a thought. Not sure how well modding is but the basic idea you have sounds great. Could also be a shame though having to sacrifice some of the story to make it work in current gen...
Now this is a real detailed breakdown. For your next video can you please do a breakdown on other obscure UNSC ships? Like the Punic class supercarrier and UNSC corvette s
I am always so impressed by the quality of this man's content and the way he presents it. High Charity has to be one of the greatest capital ships in all of Sci-Fi, and to see another in depth analysis of it was amazing. Can't wait to see what's next.
@Frog9er and a space station isn't really called a station because it's stationary. Its called a space station because it's big. Most stations can move around and warp around. Doesnt mean it isnt a station.
Installation 00. The effort you put in is insane. You deserve much more recognition than you are getting. I appreciate you more than you know. Thank you for keeping my love for Halo alive.
Halo universe feels more obtainable then most other sci-fi, maybe that's why I am so intrigued by it, I'm over halfway through all the books now and all that has done is left me wanting more
It's starting to feel like we'll never get a scifi universe as unique and solid as Halo. Too bad its immense potential is being completely wasted on incompetent studios. 343 games, the Halo show, all such a waste. Just imagine if we actually got Blomkamp's take on Halo. Biggest missed opportunity in cinema history.
@@ifeawosika966 If you look at technology & culture of humanity in the Halo universe, that could well be us in a 500 year range. Other sci-fi universes like Star Trek etc are too fantasy-like because they don't take in cultural/social & technological growth development, it's just boom, we have warp & laser guns, & oh, humanity gave up their violent nature. That kind of change takes time in a 1000 year range not a couple hundred years. Halo & The Expanse seem to me being hard sci-fi seems to be more plausible than other sci-fi IPs.
My gosh man, I don’t know how you do it. I wouldn’t even know where to begin with a Goliath like high charity. After watching this video I feel like I planned and built it myself. Amazing work as always my friend, was out of the halo loop for a while but UA-cam always finds a way to recommend only the best channels and videos into my home page which is where I come across this masterpiece. I never miss the opportunity to learn about a universe that I love and grew up with. Truly amazing work Installation00 as always
I just realized something... The prophet states "Are we to let them turn high charity into ANOTHER of their wretched hives"... This clearly means the covenant has come across OTHER flood hives. Meaning there is a GREAT chance that other flood hives exist out in the universe, that we just haven't found yet. Or at the very least, that the flood still exist in the universe.
They did come across the ones in halo wars. Word was also spread as in halo encyclopedia says mercy, I belive, sent arbiter to activate the warships before he died. Would definitely be cool if there was more but thats definitely one of the times that was before then
Well they seemed to know what the flood was in halo 2s opening. Saying that thel was ‘right to focus on the flood’ instead of the humans on 04. I take that as having previous experience with it
@@b22blackeagle20 That's true, and we never do see them out trying to kill the flood elite in halo wars either, it's almost like it's not really a concern to the covenant there, where as by the time of halo 2 and even later halo wars 2, the flood are viewed as a priority threat. So it's definitely still possible that the flood are still out there, just unknown to us.
@@christophervanoster That's true, but the threat wasn't really given all that much priority or at least it didn't seem like they were taking it seriously, given it managed to invade and take over almost the entirety of high charity. Plus they didn't really enact any lock down procedures, or containment protocols, they just sort of talked about fighting back, and not letting the flood make a hive out of their holy city by means of faith, while the prophets were fleeing.
Amazing breakdown. Was listing to this while I was cleaning up the house. Definitely kept my attention and brought back a lot of memories with some of the facts. 😎 👍
With this ship breakdown a Halo fan gratefully give a very well deserved and resounding whorah to installation 00. We salute you and keep us Halo fans engaged and loving what we all have been missing from Halo infinite. The lore, the history, the lives that lives there all here for us fans to understand and respect. Let us all give thanks to our Halo lore master during these dark halo days. As always standing by 5-5. Waiting for further transmissions.
As much as I love these videos, they also make me so sad, because the idea of a derelict forerunner ship that's been dormant for centuries since the firing of the rings sounds like an amazing setting to explore in Halo infinite, but we don't get stuff like that :/ Imagine a narrative event giving us campaign like dlc, where our multiplayer spartans are sent out to explore this massive derelict forerunner ship, to see if we can find anything to help us win our battle against the Banished.
Nah it was long before halo infinite. Halo 4 introduced a terrible take on the forerunners. They went from ancient mysterious beings to darth Vader and his orange glowing droid minions with floaty bits. I hated the change in forerunner architecture and design.
@@samuelgiroux6819 Yeah even in Infinite they still don't have the Forerunner art style right (although the Banished are a HUGE improvement from their previous work, and much more in line with the original trilogy and Reach).
A marine game where you start in a chunk of the city and make your way down to one of the lower docks to escape on a ship.. maybe. Fully explorable & heavy on lore and reference to chief doing his thing somewhere else on board
Thanks for your dedication man, you really inspire nostalgia for those of us who’s love for the lore and Halo in general has sadly faltered. These deep breakdowns are beyond words and you should be commended for your work and love of the universe. Appreciate you.
Are the physics involved in these schematics and concepts derived from real theories that could potentially be used in practice in the far future? Super interesting. Could watch for hours. Great video 👍
I would love a period ambiguous game onboard high charity. As a security guard or worse, a random Grunt, you go through your day to day life. Until you hear the prophet of truth over every speaker in the city “The release of the parasite was unexpected, unfortunate. But, there is no need to panic. In truth, this is a time to rejoice. A moment that all the Covenant should savor.” And all of a sudden it turns into a zombie style survival horror game. You must protect your family and little pups from being eaten as you try to find a way off the collapsing capitol
The problem is! The intro is so FKING good I cant watch the rest I just keep going back to the intro! DAM! I miss the covenant - It would be impossible for the banished to get to the level of awesome they had just give us time travel and be done with it! I want more
Hands down, Halo has some of the best names for ships/things in general. My personal favorite will always be "In Amber Clad", how fucking badass of a name is that??
I just thought of something. When chief is delivering that bomb in halo 2. I wondered what that must of felt like but considering chief is a spartan and he had spartan time. Does that mean what we were seeing in the cutscene is actually happening way faster. But the perspective makes it seen like normal time? Important note here. I just took a big hit of 🍃 and might not be making any sense. I want to know also how fast was chief actually flying through space.
Oh yeah baby, now this is what i like the most, space ships, or giant incredible space stations that are so well made that are considered planets at this point!
Halo 2 is my favorite I only ever had an original Xbox and I grew up playing it with the metal case. Even after playing the others it just never hit like Halo 2.
4:16 lol I’m not gonna call it a station because…. First sentence of the actual description: mobile spaceSTATION😂. I say this without ill intent because I love this content. Justan observation.
Interesting idea, if you can say warp space around you to move, then the energy requirements you'd need to do something you'd already achieved should be trivial, meaning that hypothetically wouldn't you be able to use that warp effect to basically "move" objects around you kinda like the panels using lenticular lenses bend light couldn't if you're already bending space bend it in such a way it moves objects around you ahead of you, obviously this applies to small objects larger objects would probably require too much energy but just a thought.
I mean, you could really argue that High Charity is a space station. Typically stations lack a propulsion system but that isn't a requirement. A station is just meant to support life for extended periods of time and designed to remain in space. I think High Charity matches that perfectly since I doubt you're landing it on a planet anytime soon
Who does the sound mixing and balancing? There are multiple places in this vid where the bloody music is way to loud. Did an amateur do it or something?
What I really want is an Audiobook of the last moments of thoes Covenant citizens or members who could for some reason not escape the city like Star wars death Troopers novel.
_Shall we let the Flood consume our holy city? Turn High Charity into another of their wretched hives? No enemy has ever withstood our might. The Flood too shall fail._
Stations can be (have to be mobile) even the ISS can move, albeit on a limited scale, Perhaps a station should be described by movement as compared to the ships of its species?
I looked up to see if the atmosphere would be viable for humans and it is but, not for very long. Kinda sinister to think of all the captives brought to high charity and thinking perhaps dying from atmospheric causes may be a blessing in disguise rather than be tortured or eaten alive by the covenant.
I struggle to think of a space station in a sci-fi universe that couldn't move by its own propulsion. Be it Babylon 5, Stargate, Star Wars, Star Trek or any other universe, including our own (ISS/Tiangong) - space stations can all move under their own propulsion.
That’s because you’re right; a space station isn’t a space station because it’s stationary; it’s a space station because it can only be stationed in space; as is the case for High Charity.
You realize that our space station is not stationary and it also can move under its own propulsion as well.. I believe stationary is a relative term anyway because nothing sits in one place in space and time without ateast vibrating
I was always under the impression that the activation of the replacement halo ring at the end of Halo 3 exterminated life on the Arc and thereby killed off the flood on High Charity I thought that was the whole point
What I don't get is why the Covenant Home Fleet didn't glass it to shreds when it became clear that it could not be held against the Flood after the separation of tge Dreadnought.Surely even the Prophets and elites could see the problems just leaving it to the Flood could cause and stop fighting for a few hours to do that.

Thank you for always providing us with the most accurate and detail breakdowns out there.
Not today scam not today
High Charity was my favorite thing about halo hands down. Killing her hurt me
You truly have a gift of detail explanation of anything halo it brings me to tears to see what halo was to what we have now keep up the good work ❤️
You should listen to The Amber king he's very good at telling stories.
This was Wonderful, 00 Thank you so much for pulling out all the stops for this one

Are the physics involved in these schematics and concepts derived from real theories that could potentially be used in practice in the far future?
Super interesting. Could watch for hours. Great video 👍
Never thought I would be more interested about a fictional lore and history of a videogame than real history lessons.
I’d love it if you would do an Armory video covering the ARC-920 Rail gun from Halo 4/5
This is like the best intro to any video ever
god I love your VERY detailed breakdown videos!! keep them up my guy!👍
Incredible details, great work !! Loved this episode
Halo Broken Circle tell a little the story of high charity during halo 2... is amazing
Great video! However, the music was overpowering at times. Maybe lower it'd volume abit so we can hear you more consistently
also, halo 1 through 4's music is absolutely amazing!!
My G you're gonna need to put me on whatevers playing during 46:00. Cracked Covenant vibes.

And one small frigit "in amber clad" with a couple flood bois destroyed it all. That and the great schism

had no idea the san shyuum were ancient allies with humans. crazy how much the reset changed things
This has to be your best video yet

Halo 2 is my favorite I only ever had an original Xbox and I grew up playing it with the metal case. Even after playing the others it just never hit like Halo 2.
Whats the intro song? Also, my man, Awesome video again
Also can I say I want a game where we can properly explore high charity and some of these other locations.
4:16 lol I’m not gonna call it a station because…. First sentence of the actual description: mobile spaceSTATION😂. I say this without ill intent because I love this content. Justan observation.
Interesting idea, if you can say warp space around you to move, then the energy requirements you'd need to do something you'd already achieved should be trivial, meaning that hypothetically wouldn't you be able to use that warp effect to basically "move" objects around you kinda like the panels using lenticular lenses bend light couldn't if you're already bending space bend it in such a way it moves objects around you ahead of you, obviously this applies to small objects larger objects would probably require too much energy but just a thought.
I mean, you could really argue that High Charity is a space station. Typically stations lack a propulsion system but that isn't a requirement. A station is just meant to support life for extended periods of time and designed to remain in space. I think High Charity matches that perfectly since I doubt you're landing it on a planet anytime soon
Who does the sound mixing and balancing? There are multiple places in this vid where the bloody music is way to loud. Did an amateur do it or something?
I’m just trying to find out where I can find the song used at the very end… the darker Chant of the halo theme hits hard
Thank you for this amazing video man!!
Going to have to redo the intro with the new book revelations
that intro slaps
I love the piano
loved that intro
What did you do to the song at 0:58 to make it sound like that?
What I really want is an Audiobook of the last moments of thoes Covenant citizens or members who could for some reason not escape the city like Star wars death Troopers novel.
_Shall we let the Flood consume our holy city? Turn High Charity into another of their wretched hives? No enemy has ever withstood our might. The Flood too shall fail._
Would someone tell me the name of the music at 1:10?
What was the background music used around minute 46?
Stations can be (have to be mobile) even the ISS can move, albeit on a limited scale, Perhaps a station should be described by movement as compared to the ships of its species?
The International Space Station travels 411,600 miles (662,405km) everyday.
Hey, would love to watch this but I can’t hear your voice over the music at all.
What’s the music that plays at the beginning of the video called?
Great info, but found it hard to hear him over the background music and effects...
Welcome to the Mushroom City in the sky.
lol...mushroom cities under the Venus and deep space?!
where did you get the music
Love the video, but why is the music so loud? I struggled to hear your voice over in parts
Great work as usual.
Watched, and saved for later
I looked up to see if the atmosphere would be viable for humans and it is but, not for very long. Kinda sinister to think of all the captives brought to high charity and thinking perhaps dying from atmospheric causes may be a blessing in disguise rather than be tortured or eaten alive by the covenant.
There are those who said this day would never come.... What are they to say now
Has to be one of my favorite halo lines
“Once the towers are clear we’ll drive them from the lower districts!”
I struggle to think of a space station in a sci-fi universe that couldn't move by its own propulsion. Be it Babylon 5, Stargate, Star Wars, Star Trek or any other universe, including our own (ISS/Tiangong) - space stations can all move under their own propulsion.
That’s because you’re right; a space station isn’t a space station because it’s stationary; it’s a space station because it can only be stationed in space; as is the case for High Charity.
You realize that our space station is not stationary and it also can move under its own propulsion as well.. I believe stationary is a relative term anyway because nothing sits in one place in space and time without ateast vibrating
i want a covie crime thriller in the golden city
I was always under the impression that the activation of the replacement halo ring at the end of Halo 3 exterminated life on the Arc and thereby killed off the flood on High Charity
I thought that was the whole point
Im pretty sure it WAS but got retconned
What music did you use here?
Deep space nine was a space station that could move js
By the gods... It is glorious
Lets go this is gonna be hype
What’s the ost in the beginning? Just down right beautiful, could fall asleep to it.
the death star is a space station and it moves 🫣
So…how did they get water?
This is some good stuff!
Torsion drive, couldn't that be liking to how a propeller and the water spins and pushes a boat in the direction it wants to go?
I just watched this entire video 😂 damn
Damn good intro 👌
What an amazing video... well done!
Aaahhhhh shit here we go again
What I don't get is why the Covenant Home Fleet didn't glass it to shreds when it became clear that it could not be held against the Flood after the separation of tge Dreadnought.Surely even the Prophets and elites could see the problems just leaving it to the Flood could cause and stop fighting for a few hours to do that.
The flood survived many glassings; its better to flee than fight.
Love the video, but the music gets overwhelming at times
Not even a minute in and ❤
