    Fredrick, Kelly and Linda were chiefs closest friends and teammates from their group of Spartan Conscripts. Kelly is known for being the fastest runner, Linda is a master sniper and Fred has a fantastic mind for tactics.

    My opinion on Halo 5 is a mixed bag.
    People might find some of what I say as a hot take but I like some of the innovation they took in gameplay elements such as Spartan movement abilities, aiming down sights. It gives the Halo experience a different kind of spin. The story itself for me was “It could have been better” to “it could have been different.” But who can resist the Master Chief, the Arbiter and the Nathan Fillion? And I will say that the openings for both Blue Team and Fireteam Osiris showed to a degree how powerful and skilled Spartans are on the field.
    Also the game we got felt a lot different from what the initial trailers advertised. A lot of the promotional material portrayed Agent Locke and Osiris as ONI’s reapers. The ones they send after Spartans going rogue. It felt like Agent Locke was Chief’s other side of the coin and was the only Spartan capable of hunting the legendary war hero. Instead the hunt became a team-up instead of a showdown. That’s how it felt to me anyways.

    I really hate how they made Cortana into a villain. The ending of Halo 4 was so powerful, it was so unnecessary, and an incredibly bad idea to tarnish Cortana and make her into a silly megalomaniac villain.
    Having team Osiris in a Halo 4 side story game, would've been cool.
    The idea of Chief going awol and Locke going after him is an awesome concept, handled absolutely horribly in this game. Laughable, actually.
    Check out the Hunt the truth podcast! That's an incredible way to do a story about Chief possibly going awol.

    I’m surprised you liked the one-shot intro so much. I found it to be really floaty, sort of messy and hard to follow. At a certain point I couldn’t figure out who was fighting who or why things were exploding. The weird art direction didn’t help since everything sort of looked over designed and blended together. At some point a covenant ship just.. begins crashing for no reason? Just felt sloppy, messy and unfocused compared to the Bungie games
    I feel like the intro with Master Chief was more classy and Halo-y. It felt to me like they were just trying to have their “Avengers 2 one-take intro” and it didn’t really hit for me.
    They even did the harsh cut to the title without a real motivation or transition

    Your summation at the end perfectly encapsulates how I feel about this game. Your words were almost exactly what I told my best friend after I played it, I'm glad I got more story and more halo but disappointed in how it all turned out.
    I also think that if the game had been titled as Halo 4: Guardians (kind of like Halo 3: ODST) instead of Halo 5, it would have gotten a much better reception than it did. People's reaction to only playing as chief in three missions while the overarching story was going on would have gone from "wtf why am I not playing as chief" to "Sweet we get to see what chief is doing during all of this".

    The story so bad that they essentially sidelined it in Halo Infinite and soft rebooted. Imagine a mainline Halo game where you only play as Master Chief for THREE missions.

    This has probably already been mentioned by previous comments, but if you want to understand loosely what happened between Halo 4 and Halo 5, you'll have to watch the Spartan Ops which is a sort of post story. It takes place a little bit after 4 but not by much. Just like with this vid you'll need cutscenes and certain moments of gameplay footage to get all the context. Outside of the game there are a few books that bring up how Buck and Vale became Spartans and a book on Jul M'Dama himself. In case you were itching to read some good Halo Lore.
    To answer another question, ODST now Spartan Buck was portrayed by our boy Nathan Fillion. Locke was portrayed by Michael Colter.

      Why? Halo 5 cutscenes are the worst out of the entire franchise.

  • @WebSpawn
    @WebSpawn 23 дні тому +1

    Another (often overlooked) weak point of 343 Halo games, and which got worse when moving from 4 to 5, was the lack of military consultation.
    It was a staple of CE to Reach, that almost every conversation was full of military jargon, and logical military decision and orders (insofar a civilian like me can judge) which gave the series some serious credibility for a scifi series.
    The lack thereof is really showing with Del Rio screaming like a petulant child in 4, for example.
    Also, but this can be a matter of taste, is that they made the IV's to over the top badass and full of themselves. Case in point is that opening cutscene, one of the worst ever I think. They take down a whole army by themselves, completely trivializing the Sangheili in particular. When they were always almost equal.
    Anyway, thank you for coming to my Ted talk. And sticking by me to the end 😉

      They went too far down the route of space magic and spectacle. It was always science fiction, but the original games were largely grounded in believable technology other than the Halo rings, which made them feel special, and really emphasised the threat of the flood that such power was needed to stop them. Chief felt powerful, and yet still vulnerable and relying on skill as much as his technology, whilst humanity did it's best to survive.
      Now it's just a bunch of superheroes running about without much care as they effortlessly take out whole armies, whilst bad guys float around using force powers when it suits and a new super weapon appears around every corner. Nothing feels that special, which is why when they introduce the endless it’s just like, "oh, another floating bad guy that can throw stuff".

    A lot of people had an issue with the Locke vs Chief fight because everyone thought Choef should've one shot him. But the way I look at it, the MJOLNIR armor exponentially multiplies your speed, reflexes and strength. Combine that suit with Locke's ONI background and he is definitely not going to be easy just because he is a Spartan IV.

    for me the biggest issue with 4 and 5 was this art style it went for generic sci fi instead of the unique designs Halo was known for - this was fixed with Infinite, a lot of people hated the advanced movement but to me it was a step closer to being able to play as a lore accurate spartan, the story was mixed, some of the ideas and concepts were really good like Chief struggling and Cortana being the villian, but the stuff with Locke and his team was really boring, if it was Chief and Aribter working together to take down Cortana i think that would have worked a lot more

    If you remember at the end of Halo Wars 2, there is a scene where Professor Anders gets teleported away while remaining on the halo ring. That halo ring is the same ring that is shown for the legendary ending of Halo 5 Guardians hence while you also see a guardian being summoned directly in front of the halo ring at the end of Halo Wars 2.

    Cortana going rampant was part of the story structure since BEFORE HALO 1 WAS MADE.
    Bungie made a game called “Marathon,” back in the day, and in that game, an AI goes rampant and you have to kill it. So the plan was to always do this to Cortana - but people fell a little TOO MUCH in love with her before this storyline arc.
    However, I will say that her rampancy really helped me in a time when I was watching my great grandma go through dementia and slowly die.
    It also helped me understand the Me Too movement a lot more: heroes can always go bad.

    Halsey being in M'Dama's possession is a Spartan Ops story beat.
    It technically isn't a hallucination, Chief has access to the Domain, which Cortana also has access to. It's...not really explained too well in the game, that's more novel storytelling stuff.
    Smart AI, especially the Gen 3 variants are capable of being very 'human', in a manner of speaking.
    There are a few problems with the Chief vs Locke fight, in both how we perceive it and how it is. A lot of us forget that Chief isn't going to slaughter someone, he's not going to intentionally hurt someone on his side. At most, he'll incapacitate them and make sure they get a recovery team to rescue them while he moves on. However, the way they tried to portray the fight is also problematic. A fight between Spartans would basically be a blur of punches, kicks, and grapples, so they made the poor choice of slowing down their movement to make it seem like we were seeing it in Spartan time (where a Spartan perceives time at such a pace that they almost see the future, almost). All it did was make the fight look like two sluggish old men fighting at a bar.
    Her missing arm is another Spartan Ops puzzle piece.
    Part of her visual changes are because of the drop in rating from M to T.
    No no, that's fair. See, Halo 5 had a very rough development cycle due mostly in part to bad decisions made by executives. Microsoft likewise had a hand in its bad development, but largely it was due to mismanagement by upper execs. Halo 5 could have been a masterpiece, but sadly it fell a part.

    some small lore details related to questions/observations made and other stuff
    first of all the cortana that appears in this is from the combined fragments she split off during the end of 4, the main cortana (prime cortana or whatever you wanna call her), the one who said goodbye at the end of that game, she’s dead. forerunner ships automatically jump to a safe space for repairs, so the didact’s ship jumped to genesis along with the cortana fragments
    a few things about vale: near the end you said she’s got a bit of an elite look to her, well lore wise she was a diplomat with the unsc focusing on inter species relations. Shortly after her 11th birthday she was on a ship when the slipspace drive broke, 6 day trip turned into 6 months and she figured she might aswell spend the time getting smart so she worked on translating the sangheili language, finding out a lot of the official translations were wrong and ended up developing an obsession with their culture. Also when cortana brings up her father it’s worth noting he was a spartan 2 candidate who escaped his abductors, the only one to do so. she’s also the youngest human seen ingame outside of flashbacks iirc, 22 during the events of 5, which means she was just 16 during the events of the original trilogy
    also when cortana calls them not real spartans near the end, it’s a callback to a line chief says earlier in the game where fred asks blue team what they think about the new kids on meridian (osiris), chief simply says “they’re spartans”
    as for the size of jackals, their average is 6ft 7 or 2m tall, they just appear short since you play as a 7ft tall walking tank. there’s also a part in the arbiters camp where a grunt walks past halsey and you can see they’re almost the same size, infact the average grunt is taller than the average woman and 1/3 of men, but a hell of a lot stronger

    @MrEsphoenix 18 днів тому +1

    The most lacklustre hunt in gaming history.
    Personally, I would have preferred they left Cortana dead and if they really wanted to bring her back, approached it from the angle of him being given a new Cortana AI and struggling with accepting her since despite a lot of the data being copied across, it's not the one he went through everything with. Going this route of making her a generic AI bad guy kind of cheapened her character and the end of 4 for me. Also I think a lot of the fans who know some of the background lore from the books were frustrated they keep introducing new characters that nobody's heard of rather than pulling from one of the many interesting characters already in the lore.
    Halo Infinite's gameplay was pretty good overall, and they brought back the classic art style rather than the shiny plastic look with LED's everywhere, but be aware that continuity is going to be pretty confusing going into Infinite, as they kind of skipped past a chunk of the lore and explained the rest in the books. It feels like there is a game or two missing in between. Honestly, at this point, the lore for halo is a complete shambles like they were throwing stuff at a wall to see what sticks. But in short, Cortana and the Created (the AI who join her) use their power and the fore runner tech under their control to try and subdue all sentient species for their own good with force if necessary (yeah, the classic generic AI story). The infinity uses it’s advanced jump tech to avoid detection whilst it comes up with a plan, later meeting up with the remnants of humanities navy. Cortana then goes to the Alpha Halo Ring for some unknown reason. Humanity's navy follow her there to try and end her control. Meanwhile, the banished also follow her there for revenge (it's explained in infinite what for), and clash with humanity, and that's where infinite starts.

    One thing about not liking Cortana for sending Chief a message that’s in his head and more of a vision, don’t forget that she lived in his head for so long. Lore wise she has access to a galaxy wide network known as the Domain, maybe just a radio sequence could be tracked or something, just a guess.
    You should do reactions to the trailers as well, a lot of them would be a good watch.
    And lastly if you want a good story, Season 1 of Hunt the Truth is phenomenal. It’s all audio, but preps a Halo story we never got.

    • @tacohaloman
      @tacohaloman Місяць тому

      I should clarify that by trailers, I primarily refer to the Halo 5 marketing pieces, there’s so many and I believe they set a game we didn’t get. One where Chief isn’t seen as just AWOL then needing to be saved but a traitor, being covered up to invoke positive morale.
      Also, there’s 8 different HUDs in Halo 5, depending on which character you play as (if you’re playing solo, it’s just Chief and Locke but they really try to invoke you are a different character with the subtle edges of the helmet on screen with the actual build and color of the UI.
      And one last bit, the comment on that Vale looked very Eliteish with her armor is a astute observation as that’s part of her lore, that she worked closely with the Sangheli (there’s way more to it but I’m to lazy to look into it, though I’m sure the Halo 5 steelbooks explains it in the dossier that was included)

    Kai, and everyone else when Halo 5 came out: "So that's what Halo 6 is about? Taking down Cortana?"
    343i: "What? No, people don't want to play a game about that. We'll toss that in a book, then make a spinoff game that introduces a completely new enemy faction to the Halo universe, make that faction magically OP even though it's just a reskinned Covenant, then put it front and center for Halo 6 out of nowhere. People will like that, and it won't be jarring at all for those who only played the mainline games and read none of the books."
    Credit where it's due, though, Infinite is a return to form for the franchise. Just make sure to watch the Halo Wars 2 cutscenes beforehand, or you'll be completely lost.

    Roland, like Cortana, is what's known as a Smart AI. Volitional AI or "Smart AI' in the Halo series are all mapped off of the neural pathways of the brains of recently-dead humans, which gives them the capacity for emotional reactions, if not actual emotions and the ability to learn from their surroundings. Cortana was the only AI created from a living human brain. Halsey flash cloned her own brain to map the neural pathways that made up Cortana's own mind. Cortana, Isabel (from Halo Wars), Leonidas, Roland and Governor Sloan are all smart AI. Nonvolitional AIs, or Dumb AI are all just computer based programs bundled together to create a pseudo-human intelligence with interactivity. So, when Roland is arguing with Captain Lasky and Doctor Halsey, he's arguing from the point of view of an AI who knows he only has 7 years of existence. "Why is Cortana the problem? Because she refused to die when she was supposed to?" He knows she went through Rampancy but by interacting with the Forerunner Domain, she was cured.

    I don't think this was a bad game, not even a bad Halo game. Hell, looking back on it now so many years later, I think it's a really good Halo game. It was just...different.
    Spartan Locke and his Fireteam Osiris are the main characters of this game, when fans naturally want the focus to be on Master Chief. The story is much more dramatic than other Halos, which are much more straightforward action fares. Some of the missions don't even have combat, and are devoted entirely to talking to characters and gathering intel. The main characters of old (Master Chief, Cortana) have their goals obscured and flipped around, leaving fans with a bad taste in their mouths when they feel betrayed. Personally, I think it's an interesting story to tell. The most engaging villains are the ones that you can associate with, and what better association to have the villains of this game be the protagonist and deuteragonist of every previous game in the series? (Well, MC isn't really a villain in this story, but he's definitely built up as one in the first half. Again, I personally think that's _good_ storytelling, not bad).
    I also think all the characters have realistic and believable reasons to chase their goals. Cortana was cast to the curb by the non-MC humans because she was far beyond her serviceable lifespan. She found a way to cure her rampancy and effectively live forever, but the means to achieve that goal results in her basically becoming the same as the tyrannical Forerunners of the ancient past. Rampancy is fucking _terrifying_ for AIs, so it's believable that she would have so many followers among the rest of the AIs. John's goals are also believable, as Cortana was his best friend and only friend for much of the Halo saga. While Blue Team are like his family, Cortana is like his wife. The same way many people in real life would do literally anything for their significant other, especially if they thought they were gone forever, MC would do the same for Cortana. Like I said about Blue Team, they're Chief's family. They've got his back no matter what and they're willing to follow him through hell just to make sure he's safe on the other side. Meanwhile, Locke and Osiris as a whole are devoted to the mission to return Blue Team back to the UNSC. At the same time, they're trying to figure out the reasons how Cortana returned and why Blue Team would suddenly go AWOL.
    Unfortunately, Cortana's arc gets dropped out of the main games after this. It might've been finished properly in Halo Wars 2, I didn't play it. If not there, maybe it was another case of a book wrapping up her storyline. She is not featured in Infinite and that story instead focuses on a new group of baddies (although I think they debuted in Halo Wars 2). Instead, Infinite features a suspiciously similar Cortana substitute that looks like her but decidedly _isn't_ her, likely an attempt by 343 to backpedal on Halo 5's frosty reception without having to retcon the game entirely. Similarly, the antagonists are a suspiciously similar copy of the Covenant (particlarly the late Halo 2 and Halo 3 Covenant led by the brutes)...but they aren't _actually_ the Covenant. I know 4 and 5 weren't very well-received but at least they were original. Of the 343 games, 5 is my favorite. It's a toss-up between whether I dislike 4 or Infinite more.
    Also, when is the Sadie's Story reaction coming out? I've been impatiently waiting for it to get uploaded ever since you mentioned it on your ODST playthroughs.

    The only thing I ever hated about Halo 5 was the story. Everything else was pretty good. Even parts of the story are good I just didn’t like them bringing back Cortana and completely ignoring the storyline they set up in Halo 4 and Spartan Ops. Idk if you know this but Linda was the only other Spartan II on the Pillar of Autumn in Halo CE. Chief brought her to the ship to be put in cryo when she got mortally wounded on Reach. Halsey revived her on the Covenant ship Ascendant Justice using cloned organs between Halo CE and Halo 2. Chief, Johnson, Chipps Dubbo, and Dustin Echos stole it from the Covenant at the ring. They picked up Linda’s pod that got ejected during the Autumn’s crash landing after Chief blew it up. After Chief was found and brought back to Earth he was put back in charge of Blue Team even though Fred outranked him they still have Chief leading because he was always the better leader it was also a respect thing. Also by this point Lord Hood offered Chief the rank of Admiral. Chief declined the offer saying that The Admiral isn’t as cool as Master Chief. Also every Spartan that has his rank don’t use the name Master Chief out of respect. Alpha 9 Buck’s ODST team broke up before this. Rookie was killed by an insurrectionist and Mickey got arrested for treason when he refused to kill another human. Dutch retired. I think Romeo continued to be an ODST or he became a Spartan. Dare continued to work for ONI. After this game they reunited and everyone who wasn’t already a Spartan took the augmentations and reunited Alpha 9 as a Spartan team. Also Dutch’s wife joined them. Dare married Buck on the Infinity during this time too. Meridian was a glassed planet. It’s featured in Halo 2’s terminals and is where Regret got his luminary that showed Earth’s location. Buck actually talks about New Alexandria’s glassing from Reach in this area too. That Halo ring at the end is Zeta Halo. Its the most significant ring in Halo lore. Its the last of the original 12 rings, it was the ring Mendicant Bias controlled, it was where the Primordial was, it was the ring that fired at the Forerunner capital Maethrillian, it was the ring the Flood controlled during the Forerunner Flood war. I think its actually the only Halo that has been fired more than once.

    Halo 5 for me is a real love and hate game. It has some really good ideas that I was interested in and love, but the way it implimented them just didn't hit as well as it should like you mentioned. In regards to soundtrack, gameplay and graphics the game was excellent, but it really fell apart in the story, even though it has some interesting ideas. Personally I actually rather liked the idea of Cortana being a villain, as you could aruge that he Cortana in 5 isn't the same as in 4, she's infact a rampant fragment that survived during the slipspace jump and used the Domain (a Precursor galaxy spanning database) to rebuild herself, but since this isn't the "true" Cortana she was a lot more human as she was rebuilt up from one of those rampant fragments.
    As people have mentioned, the main false advertising was done during the Hunt the Truth ad campaign, there was an audio drama which was amazingly done and was about a reporter investigating Oni propaganda, and there was also 2 main trailers told from both Locke and Chiefs side which are well worth a quick look. It really feels like they tried to put too much into one game, and it should've been a Halo spin off with Osiris and the Arbiter reclaiming Sanghelios, which would've introduce Osiris more without detracting from Chiefs appearance time, then go into Halo 5 with the Cortana stuff.
    It's a shame you didn't like the Didact from 4 though, as he's one of my favourites, but it's really understable why as near most of his story/lore was locked behind in game terminals and the Forerunner trilogy books. Because of the negative reception to the Didact and the Prometheans (mainly gameplay wise) they basically threw out the Didact and finished his story in a comic, and more recently an amazing book (Epitaph), then did 5 with Cortana as the villain, but since this also had a negative reception, they decided to do a 'soft reboot' with Infinite basically throwing away a lot of the story points from 5.
    My biggest issue with 343 by far is how they react to negative feedback way to extremely, rather than try to continue and end the story they're currently doing, which I think could've been interesting if done well, they'd rather just do a 6 months time skip and soft reboot. Though despite my dislike of the throwing away of ideas, they did an ok/passable job of smoothing out the removed story points in Infinite, but i'll always be disappointed they just couldn't stick with a main story theme for more than one game.

    So the reason why everyone hated the game, despite the objectively good multiplayer, is the fact that (among other things) they only made Chief playable in 2 missions in the story and didn’t include him in any marketing for the game then claimed that they weren’t aware that he was the main character of the series

    if you want more back story on how everyone felt ripped off by this story. go and take some time to listen to the hunt the truth episodes. that plus all the advertising for the game really were playing oni vs chief vibes and they did something completely different.
    as far as cortana sounding weird. i swear for the life of me that it is one of the rampant fragments that didnt die from didacts ship and thats what we interact with. i feel like it makes sense bc her audio was super weird at times.

    As little as our boy Arbiter was in Halo 5, I am glad that they brought Keith David back to voice him instead of trying to recast him.
    The thing with Halo 5, it’s marketing was so far off from what the actual game had, I think if the marketing matched the story of the game, it wouldn’t have gotten so much hate as it did.
    Update: and yeah no arbiter and chief reunion on screen, all in a book…biggest gripe of what 343 is doing. Putting major story phases into books..rather than the games
