    It's pretty wild how accurately some of these theories - from as far back as the 90s!! - managed to predict Halo's story over a decade in advance. Call the old HBO users Ord Casto with their prophet-like abilities

Nowadays everything is stale and sterile, artificial, bland, with the only consistent flavor being the bitterness and sourness of corporate propaganda and extreme social disharmony. I miss arguments over silly things not resulting in being branded a thoughtcriminal or a sheep. Much simpler, more innocent days.

    I wish they kept the storyline of Cortana holding the galaxy hostage.

    To be honest, when you base something so heavily on history/fiction already existing, somewhat "predicting" it won't be very difficult. I'd also dare to guess that some people were leaking early concepts rather than predicting. There's also this thing some developers like to do which is mould the story after predictions of fans, as they often have really cool ideas of where it can be taken.

I know of 2 different halo reach communities that make absolutely solid invasion maps and modes for the player base to enjoy. One has spent like 4 years balancing these maps and was even working with 343 devs to put them into matchmaking (it ended up getting cancelled) and the other community makes custom browser compatible modded invasion (grunts, flyable spirits, drones, scaled up forge objects etc) which is a LOT of fun. There is also a bunch of cool infection maps floating around which didn't exist 10 years ago. Would love to see some MCC on your channel once in a while.

    Halo lore theorizing was so much more fun before all of 343's games. I know they brought a lot, but I like the simpler times of "Oh shit man imagine *insert crazy theory*!" My lore was always that humans are the forerunners, so everything we come across that's forerunner, was just forgotten knowledge. Makes the Covenant's genocide against the humans be so poetically ironic. They would be killing their literal gods, or atleast their children. And Master Chief, their demon, would be a heavenly hero defending the covenants gods against the covenant themself. Bro fuck me Halo is fucking cool.

    I do wonder what the writers of these old theories think about the franchise nowadays, if they still follow it.
    Like, when I joined the Halo fandom and became a fan of it, it was "relatively" late in the franchise. 2008. (Even though I did know the games since CE and have played it.
    I joined a forum themed around Halo and joined the ranks of fanfic writers there, eventually writing my own story within the story, envisionning what would Halo become after H3, if a sequel was to ever happen.
    All the while reading the chapters uploaded by the other writers of the forum.
    Were we wrong about our predictions ? Mostly. But the feeling you have when a minor, little tiny details that you imagined years ago as part of your very own story, ended up being true, well that's certainly something :P
    Makes me think that I probably owe apologies to one of those writers from the forum, whose story's main character was a sangheili with a bionic left arm and with which I often argued about how it would be frown upon by the species xD

And so in the same way Jesus was accused by the religious leaders of being a demon-force, so is the Masterchief accused of being a demon by the covenant.

    Something I noticed is that the logo he showed at 14:28 appears to have the map of the station on it, look at the Lower left corner of the map and the logo, they both have that large segmented bit on them. Also both of them appear to have that empty area in the middle but the square on the logo cuts it off. I don’t know if it’s a perfect fit but it looked similar.

    6:17 Where are you getting that 'anything on a halo ring is immune to its effects'? I don't think that's accurate. Per halopedia:
    "While organisms aboard the twelve older rings were safe from the Halo effect itself due to its directional nature, any sentient being would still experience an uncomfortable sensation in the vicinity of the pulse.[105] .. .[11] Any living creature on the newer seven rings, however, would be killed and need to be reintroduced following the firing of the array."

    Howard may have gotten the idea of the Halos being portal devices wrong, but they certainly got close in one weird way: notice in the text of their post, they say...
    "I think one of the names of the nearby planets to the halo is actually the word gateway in a foreign tounge- but I don't remember for sure."
    The gas giant that Alpha Halo orbits is, in fact..."Threshold".

  • @Haggysack2k8
    @Haggysack2k8 4 місяці тому +1

    "Halo is a Gateway"
    Simply put: No. Definately not. And i think they never were intended to be Gateways, because Bungie back then probably knew about the Franchise "Stargate" and that they'll probably get sued because of copyright BS.
    To explain for those who have no idea what the Stargate franchise is about (i mean, despite looking at the name of that franchise, which is kinda self explanatory):
    You basically have hidden portals (ring shaped), that are scattered across the universe and beyond and these portals are all connected in some sort of Gateway network and Stargate's version of the Forerunners are the ones who built these portals.
    These guys didn't die out, they ascended to a higher plane of existence, so there is a difference between them and the Halo forerunners.
    And then there is atleast one "Supergate" in Stargate. And this thing would be the closest we come to copyright BS when the Halo rings would have been Gateways, because the Supergate is probably the same size as a Halo ring and is supposed to not only allow space travel of humans, but entire Starships.
    So yeah, Halo rings as a gateway could have been problematic for Bungie.

    To the point of the Master Chief being a Christ-like or Messianic figure: it could also be interpreted that Christ Himself was a vessel for God's will, a Being beyond mortal comprehension, but His human Manifestation (Christ) is bound by the rules of the world he exists in (He needs food/water, can be injured, can die etc.). As such Master Chief is controlled by the player, and while Chief is limited by the rules of the game world (insert any game mechanics here), the player who is guiding and controlling him is beyond such limitations. Due to this, Master Chief is really the only character that can have any significant influence over the course of the story, and in essence is that Christ-like or Messianic figure because he is the only one who can save everyone in the story.
    Plus the whole respawn mechanic in the game and Christ's resurrection could also be a cheeky association there too ;)

    Weird coincidence as I was going through my head 30 minutes ago as to how Jesus, through the Gospel of John, partially inspired the creation of the Master Chief as his full name of John 117 is a reference to a Bible verse in John talking about how Jesus is the only way to Heaven. This alone helps to explain why we are fighting Prophets and the Flood as it is literally the Pharisees and false prophets as aliens and the Flood is essentially Hell and the Devil with each combat form being a representation of a soul lost to sin walking around in agony and suffering while controlled by a puppet master. Heck, it even made me realize that the mission Cortana from Halo 3 is more religious then it seems as it is not Chief saving Cortana in a knight in shinning armor saving a princess from a dragon moment, no it is Jesus saving a sinner from the debts of Hell moment, especially when you take in what Cortana says when Chief save her which sounds more like a sinner thinking she is too far gone. And, the fact that Chief destroys High charity can be seen as similar to Jesus destroying Hell as the only way after death as we Christians are told that after Jesus died, he went to Hell for 2 days and in there, saved every soul deemed worthy of salvation and the inheritance of Heaven and in essence destroyed or damaged Hell in a way similar to that of destroying reactors in the mission Cortana. I hope I am making the comparison clear because it is hard to put into words for this sometimes.

The full title of the last book of the Bible is actually The Revelation of John, and the verse this writer referenced was 1:17. Bungie didn’t like the implication, supposedly, but didn’t change it.
