This really feels like a bygone era, where a franchise releasing a banger was practically expected. Maybe it's the rose-tinted goggles of my childhood, but having Halo 1-3 release with what felt like the end of the story, then having 3 spin-off games release that expanded the lore (outside of the books) and gave us unique gameplay between all 3 spin-offs? It never felt like anything bad could happen. Meanwhile, Gears of War also had nothing but bangers in its first trilogy, then Judgement, which i thought was a lot of fun and, again, expanded the lore and everything. God of War too. All these games releasing in the 00s were just... AWESOME. And then the 10s happened and every game started being a gamble, online communities shrunk, physical presentations became false promises. I miss the era when it felt like companies understood that having a great relationship eith the fans was what MADE MONEY, rather than just believing we would lap up everything with a recognisable brand name on it.

Bungie underestimated the workload of developing ODST and Reach at the same time. They should’ve completed one before starting on the other, even if it took a year or so longer.
@@danieldimov8625 The Irony in blaming Microsoft. Also, they were making Reach, ODST and the early stages of Destiny. Bungie made ODST in a year to get out of their contract faster lmao. Microsoft wanted a small DLC sized Halo 3 expansion (even got the copywrite of the word Recon, Halo 3: Recon) and then Microsoft came in, and were like "damn, this is a entire game, not a DLC? Shit, nice job" and then Bungie looked stupid as they realised the game wasn't worth $60 but they really wanted out of the contract by 2010. Eg, that's why they also released Reach beta and 3's map pack with ODST. I can give the source for this btw, they said this themselves. Marty O’Donnell "That’s where ODST came up. It started as Halo 3 Recon. It wasn’t going to feature Master Chief, and it’d be a short story, just an expansion pack. You know, some new multiplayer maps and a whole bunch of things that had been scattered through the entire series, all in one package. That would fulfill our contract with Microsoft. It would come out followed by Halo 4-or rather Reach, as it proved to be-a year or a year and a half later." The article is a good read. Also, the idea's and development for ODST is a good read for sake of entertainment, they were def passionate about it. You see these cutscenes? One guy did them. The team was so small because it was a B team, (left overs) and also Bungie gave payouts depending on the project so therefore nobody wanted to work on ODST because less pay. Sad really, ODST is easily the second best Halo game, and Reach is easily one of the worst.
@@pleasestoptrackingmeasio7657 Interesting to read but i fail to see the irony. And also, keep in mind this is your opinion at the end.

Well, we certainly weren't getting a redeeming character trait from the Benjamin Sisko wannabe and the other two who were so fucking boring that I can't even remember their names.
Same! Playing as a human rather than a SUPER SOLDIER made the characters much more relatable and wanting to know more about them FUN FACT the audiobook of halo called: "New Blood" Buck talks about his experience through the UNSC and some of his ODST squads and talks all about the New Mombasa story all the way up to and past becoming a Spartan. I've listened to it maybe 25 times! It's so so good!!! 😁👏👏👏
Honestly I knew I’d love this game as soon as the story in text popped up with the subtle and soft music. I love the main halo games but ODST just hit different.

Took me all this time to realize that the Engineer at the start wasn't trying to harm Buck. It was asking for help, and saying it knew where Veronica went. The gear on it's back wasn't him activating it, that's a covenant device, reacting to the live ODST.

4:30 You can see In Amber Clad fly up next to the right of the Covenant Carrier Ship just before it jumps into slip space, just like in Halo 2. Bye bye Master Chief. :)
8:54 I’ve always wondered, what does that beam do exactly? Outside of the cutscene, Engineers will only do it randomly when idle and won’t actually do it once they notice the player, so I doubt it’s for combat purposes. It also seems to be an ability given to them from their masks. Maybe it’s some sort of “scanner” for finding Forerunner technology?
I noticed how the first cutscene was from halo 2 from the mission metropolis after the scarab was destroyed and the covenant ship was leaving into slip space and blowing everything out
I love the story. It's enjoying, something a little bit dark and makes you think they should make this into a movie. I love some games has a great story you can relate on.
17:12 Is that NMPD Officer the guy who voiced Carmine? He sounds almost exactly the same to me but I looked and I couldn’t find him anywhere in the credits.
The EMP knocked out their electronics, most couldn't deploy their chutes or deceleration measures. As a result, pretty much all of the ODSTs died above the carrier. Buck and his squad only lived because they were so far off course.
I would much rather had these guys in halo 5 then fire team Osiris. Playing as the rookie again, I know he dies in canon, as a Spartan 4 would have been cool.
Could you do all the Halo games (Then CE and 2 on Classic + Anniversary)? That would be awesome. Well, maybe let Halo 4 wait until later, though, since the Reclaimer Closing cutscene is still textureless.
Monkey was a easter egg. Since this was built off of Halo 3, they reused the assets from there including the monkey family easter eggs on the first level. It's not canon, just a little goofing off, like having Chief's cryo pod in the hangar at the end of Halo Reach. Regret showing up is basically the culmination of the parallels to Dante's Inferno taken to the conclusion. Throughout the entire game Rookie and the rest of the team descend through parallels to the different rings of Hell as described in that story. It all leads to coming across the Devil himself, in this case Truth. In-universe it is Truth confirming the existence of the Ark Portal that we see in Halo 3.
Buck: "Dutch, Medkit!" Dutch: *slowly sidesteps 5 feet and kneels* "What's wrong with him?" Romeo: *fucking choking on his own blood right next to him* Romeo internally (probably): "GEE, I DON'T KNOW, NOT LIKE I TOOK A LARGE BLADE ATTACHED TO A HAMMER TO THE CHEST OR SOMETHING"

43:04
Buck: I reject my humanity, JoJo!
Some i never noticed before. There a lot of drop pods at 3:30 i wonder if they were meant to go to the carrier and what happened to them. Hmm
They landed in the water or they died in the landing
@@nameless1158 they also ended up on other parts of the city most likely.
The EMP knocked out their electronics, most couldn't deploy their chutes or deceleration measures. As a result, pretty much all of the ODSTs died above the carrier. Buck and his squad only lived because they were so far off course.
My head canon is a Normandy style scattered landing with small groups scattered around the city
@@Swordsman99k only alpha 9 squad survived. Bucks squad
Still my favorite little detail, rookie whistling the superintendent tune knowing the engineer has Virgil in it now. 32:03
34:57 Love Rookie and VRGL looking at each other like "Yuck. Adults kissing."
35:55 Poor VRGL all droopy because Buck says he smells bad.
The nostalgia
4:23 freeze and look. you can see the other drop pods of ODST's which unfortunately die when the carrier makes it slipspace jump. sucks to see
That Chieftain from the police HQ cutscene is BADASS
This game looks like it was animated in Source Filmmaker.
2:38 "exactly"
Hands him the worst shutgun of halo
Thats not the Halo 3
love this cast of characters def grew atattched to them a bit rip rookie
34:57 Even though they're different species, this is a certified bro moment.
The best campaign in halo and/or in any video game ever created. Story is awesome and characters are great. Doesn't feel like its 11 years old.
you think thats cool wait until you find out that most of them game is based of daunte's inferno
The Rookie has Link syndrome
I always get lost In The city
Thats Y they give u a map
NewIceSpartan unless your dad won’t use it when he plays with you and you have to become a cartagropher
@@CryoIsLazy burn
I would much rather had these guys in halo 5 then fire team Osiris. Playing as the rookie again, I know he dies in canon, as a Spartan 4 would have been cool.
He would have been the only hyper lethal spartan 4 out there
@dr.blast__2713 Him having the hyper-lethal status should have been what made him a SPARTAN.
The light the cigar scene was worth the game
Could you do all the Halo games (Then CE and 2 on Classic + Anniversary)? That would be awesome.
Well, maybe let Halo 4 wait until later, though, since the Reclaimer Closing cutscene is still textureless.
I really love this game
what was the monkey human all about? and what was the last scene with the engineers and Regret all about?
Monkey was a easter egg. Since this was built off of Halo 3, they reused the assets from there including the monkey family easter eggs on the first level. It's not canon, just a little goofing off, like having Chief's cryo pod in the hangar at the end of Halo Reach.
Regret showing up is basically the culmination of the parallels to Dante's Inferno taken to the conclusion. Throughout the entire game Rookie and the rest of the team descend through parallels to the different rings of Hell as described in that story. It all leads to coming across the Devil himself, in this case Truth.
In-universe it is Truth confirming the existence of the Ark Portal that we see in Halo 3.
I lawf odst :D
I lawf it too!
I lawfully lawf it also!
Buck: "Dutch, Medkit!"
Dutch: *slowly sidesteps 5 feet and kneels* "What's wrong with him?"
Romeo: *fucking choking on his own blood right next to him*
Romeo internally (probably): "GEE, I DON'T KNOW, NOT LIKE I TOOK A LARGE BLADE ATTACHED TO A HAMMER TO THE CHEST OR SOMETHING"
Eddie Buck, always thinking with his gun.
22:32 *CHILLS* this game is a fucking masterpiece dude. This game’s OST is one of the best in a game, top 5 easy son.
Whats going on in the epiloge when the camera turns away from johnson
Monke
Scared the fuck out of me.
Wake up buttercup in 4k
3:08
