The Halo 2 Anniversary Terminals give us a better glimpse into how the Covenant was formed, the history of the Arbirter, and events between Halo CE and Halo 2. The terminals were animated by Sequence, who also animated the terminals for Halo CE and Halo 4. They have a different art style from the games, but still feel like they belong in the Halo Universe. Most of the history presented here have been written about in the Halo universe, but only the most hardcore fans would know all these stories. Either way, it's nice to see a visual representation of these stories, and I think any Halo fan will enjoy knowing more about the Covenant. The Arbiter and the Elites have been series favorites, and I think these videos will only further reinforce those feelings. I hope you enjoy, all credit goes to the brilliant minds at 343 Industries, Microsoft Studios and Sequence.

343 Guilty Spark - "Quite unacceptable".
What he really meant - "Oh for fuck sake, he blew up my fucking house"
But of course Guilty Spark is a British Gentleman and would not use such words!
***** But.... He IS a God o:
***** I am a God and to you i am another human on this here earth. We are all born unequal my friend
***** We fucking know
***** Its like you don't know you're on the internet right now

Dothurnaax Maybe toss in some Brute Chieftains and about 30 pairs of Hunters
+Sam an acceptable challenge
Kind of feel bad for killing the heretic now... Plus that line "The humans have good cause to shoot us on sight" shows regret for the actions taken against the humans. He doesn't say something like "They are filthy beasts" or anything, just that we have a good reason to be resentful as if he his taking some blame for what happened.
I love sesa's dialogue. It really shows how smart sangheili can be.
colebowlin68 Yeah I have always thought this as well - it was like he wanted to convert him and then at the opportune moment shot away. I wonder what would of happened if he gave him the chance to listen
You can also hear him on heroic, it’s pretty interesting. Didn’t get why he started shooting in the first place.
Threnan17 I wish we could have teamed up with him
Some within the covenant though humanity deserved a place within the covenant due to how well we fought and had gained some level of respect towards us.
That crying Unggoy. Gets me every time.
Peter DeLury it was horrible to watch your home world being desolations. What ever happened? I thought the grunts join the elites doing the covenant civil war.
@@air_owl-warlock7812 The Grunts joined whoever was their direct superior officer during the civil war. Most of them were still on Brute operated ships and remained "loyal" to the Covenant, others followed the Elites in their uprising (several Grunts help the player during the events of the schism in Halo 2). The only reason why we don't see friendly Grunts in Halo 3 is that the Elites never actually send a large ground force in battle, they only use small specialized assault teams, composed only by the vastly superior Elites
@@air_owl-warlock7812 actually, the grunts didn't care _particularly_ about their homeworld. Balaho is a nigh-inhositable, freezing hellhole which spits out scorching hot, flaming tornadoes from the *ground.* Most of the grunts were all-too-happy to live in the slums of High Charity as opposed to that place. The surrender was more along the lines of losing billions of Unggoy as opposed to them losing their homeworld.
In essence, it was an intimidation tactic, manipulating the cowardly nature of the Grunts through a show of force that took them to the negotiating table. Pretty smart by the Arbiter involved, if I do say so myself.
Downrange Cash2 incredibly brutal as well.
I want to like this comment but I won't. Please let the likes stay at 343
Does anyone think that maybe if the heretic guy didnt open fire on the arbiter, he wouldve survived, the arbiter would have learned the truth, and the elites wouldve left the covenant alot earlier?
Yes
I don't think so, though. Tartarus was there, remember? I'm pretty sure the Prophets ordered him to keep an eye on Thel and to ensure that Guilty Sparks didn't reveal anything
Fair point Tartarus wouldn't let 343 say anything....
But still, Tartarus still believed in the Great Journey even after Guilty Spark reveals the truth so the prophets didn't tell him that it was a lie
JoeyKucumber Highly doubtful. Even the Gravemind had a hard time convincing him.
"I'm starting to fear that you're not very smart." Spark's got some quip in him.
its cuz hes an ancient human
What gets me is from the Halo: CEA terminals at the end when he first arrives at the gas mine.
Elite: [Apologizes for his fellow Covenant members, goes on this huge rant about how they will be punished for such actions, etc]
343 Guilty Spark: Oh my, your people have grown quite dramatic over the last 100,000 years...
@i hate anime you had 4 years to come up with an insult and thats the best you could do
@i hate anime if one thing here is taking an L, it would be your grammar.
Damn.... This really does highlight two things about the Arbiter.
1. The dude may be an ally of the UNSC now, even a friend to some, but he was a freaking demon before - a zealot who truly believed that he was justified in genocide. He might have been brainwashed by the Prophets, but he's got a lot to answer for.
2. If the Prophets and the High Council weren't absolute idiots and had kept Thel as a fleet commander, they might have actually won the war.
thekaboominator1 thats what why you never bring religion in a military situation
At the end of Halo 3, Admiral Hood said to the Arbiter " I remember how this war started. What your kind did to mine. I can't forgive you... but you have my thanks." This shows that the Arbiter is not innocent/forgiven to what he did.
@@cake. "You have my thanks for standing by him til the end."
If they would have let thel slide the entire covenant would still call him heretic and hate him
@@qrrov6728 Yes, but failure to punish Thel would have damaged the prophets reputation. Making him the Arbiter covers their ass, but lets them keep him to utilize his unique skill sets. The Prophets truest mistake, was removing the Sangheili from acting as the Prophets guards. A position they had held since the covenants founding.
When the guy said the covenant found earth i got chills.
Yeah, all those settlements would certainly need some help.
Preston Garvey
Looks like another settlement needs your help.
The Cole Protocol at that moment was rendered useless
When the guy said the covenant found earth I got word of another settlement that needs your help. Here, I'll mark it on your map.
Also:
"They have very good cause to kill us on sight."
I have to wonder the regret Sela felt here, realising he'd slaughtered so many innocents for a lie. And then realising that any attempt for peace would likely be met with aggression. He was literally trying to save the galaxy with a survey team. And holy shit he was friends with Thel. I always wondered why Sela didn't let Spark speak to the Thel - he shot at him before that could happen. In that moment, he decided the title of Arbiter meant Thel would never listen, that he would blindly follow the Prophets, and gave up on trying to save him.
Exactly. I seem to recall reading somewhere that he knew the Arbiter wouldn't listen. He knew he was going to die.
Not to mention but they were super low on time
Because the station was in freefall on a gas giant in the middle of a massive storm, while being overrun by Flood, an Arbiter is the highest rank only under the Prophets for the Covenant's cause and the most fanatical. Even before he was the Arbiter, Thel was responsible for a billion human casualties.
I also theorize that since he knew he was going to die and tarturus was surveying Thel he instead just planted doubt of the prophets into Thel before sacrificing himself for thel's sake
@@theia1653 To say nothing of the fact that he was a zealot, only the most battle-hardened and loyal believers in the covenant faith were given that rank. It took treason by the prophets themselves to make arbiter ask questions.
Jesus Christ, I feel horrible after watching this. All of the Unggoy I killed. They were forced into military servitude, and I killed them like rats.
Borne Stellar if you didn’t kill them they would’ve killed you
No wonder why sometimes they just run
Suffer not the Xeno to live.
Not only that, the jackals are a bunch of cucks towards the grunts for no apparent reason.
It’s the Prophets. Think of the Guardians from GL but 100x worst. They’re the sole reason for the war.
It's kind of sad to see that Sesa (Heretic Leader) Trusted Thel so much, knowing that he is eventually killed by him.
Yeah Sesa was one of my Fav characters and this just made me love him even more
What the hell are you talking about if he had just told thel what guilty spark said he might have listened to him it was the heritic leader who opened fire so it's his own fault
It's basic psychology that no one likes to be prven wrong, and that it can trigger a fight or flight instinct. Had the monitor said something reckless to someone who was *so* faithful that he accepted to go on suicide runs to restore his honor, Thel would've just closed his mind even further, rejecting the truth outright.
He learned the truth gradually. First, he was told that the profets were lying, then he was told that Halo is a weapon. When all you know and all you see is based on religion, you cannot just tell someone "IT'S A LIE LULZ!", they have to learn it gradually over time.
Sesa also reasoned (correctly) that Thel would have immediately been named Arbiter if he weren’t executed for the destruction of Installation 04. Since the Sangheili thrive of honor, the Arbiter would happily run to their death in the hope of regaining their lost honor
Well to put Sesa’s words close as i can get and remembered I’d rather die by your hands than those that follow the covenant cause he knew that his people were blind by the profits words and hope that his messages would at least one elite to finally seek the truth about the great journey and halo weather he knew the elites would be betrayed by the covenant or not sesa did what all his people do when chosen to the life as a warrior to die til the bitter end and fight what they know is right at least he had the option to choose who he would die by before untimely death it does make you wonder what would he think of how things have turned out in the halo series if he was still alive and was kept prisoner at the holy city then being killed at the mining platform by the arbiter.
Half expected Regret to ask "Do you get to the cloud district very often? What am I saying, of course you don't"
Yeah, he does sound like that redguard fuck.
Haha laughed my ass off when I saw this
skyrim reference I'm guessing
+St0rm Fall Noooooooo, it's a fucking Fallout refference!
I'm sorry, the urge was too strong
"I'll have you know that there's no PUSSIEEEEEEEE"
I LOVE that 343 Industries is bringing some of the deeper and more obscure Halo lore into the main series. The players could use a bit of extra backstory on some of the stuff fans who've been avid readers know.
Too bad the franchise went to shit after halo 3

PLEASE! DONT SHAKE THE LIGHTBULB.
It's so hard to remember the Arbiter was a genocidal murderer who glassed tons of planets.
Different arbiters
@@HealthySkepticism777 What? No it's not😂 Thel Vadame becomes the arbiter we know in the original trilogy
@@HealthySkepticism777 He still have a Fleet that glassed tons of planets even before become the Arbiter
The Elites have a lot to answer for.
These Terminals are definitely a good addition to the game series since a great amount of people never took a good look into the "Expanded Universe" or overall backstory to Halo, which is full of good stuff. I do wish they did a lot more than the one Terminal entry about Operation First Strike but that's alright.
JCDentonCZ Yeah, they literally had like 2 lines of dialogue about first strike. I really hope one day we get a game that is everything between Halo CE and Halo 2, because that was an amazing story.
+Jacob Prior Yeah well ,that could be a dlc at best since there isn't that much action.
The Unggoy were merciless with their violence... Their tenacious volatility...
Pffffft! Case and point.
"LEADER'S DEAD! RUN AWAY!!!"
Well now you know WHY obviously.
when in doubt, flee.
+DavidELD "GET SHOT A-AAAAAH!!!"
Lol XD
Well (now that I think about it) those (modern) Unngoy are no more than twelve years old if I remember correctly, plus they've been conditioned for total obedience through fear. If it were me, I'd run away before A: I get shot in the head; or B: someone else comes along and drags me back by my neck.
30:20 in the words of Sgt. Johnson
'Don't look like no "uneven elephant" to me'
"More like two squids kissing."
First strike was a amazing book
I really wish the Arbitor hadn't killed that Elite man, that'd been one hell of a story.
True
It was the heretics fault, spark was 2 seconds from telling arbiter the truth but then the heretic just started blasting at him, RIGHT AFTER HE TOLD THE ARBITER TO LISTEN TO SPARK
+TheBatFan001 Fucking idiot, if you ask me LOL
+ProtoMario Woah, I didnt think I'd find you here.
I like how they confirmed that "The Duel" from "Halo:Legends" is Canon. The expansion on previously mentioned backstory is also fascinating, especially about little mentioned things like the Grunt Rebellion and Unyielding Hierophant from the book "The Fall of Reach". It also explains how Regret fucked up so badly; the Forerunner information on Erde-Tyrene was from when we were still devolved, after they defeated Humanity.
Seeing more on the backstory of Thel Vadam is neat to see.
Also, learning more about why Sesa 'Refumee turned on the Covenant is quite interesting; the fact that the Thel/Arbiter kills him when Sesa was telling the truth the entire time makes his death sad. Thank you for uploading this, as I cannot afford a One for quite some time.
Nice connection there. Plus there was the mention of the Covenant fleet from "First Strike" that the regrouped Master Chief and blue team took out on the way back to Earth from Reach.
yep, but I lumped that in with Unyielding Hierophant. All things considered, this isn't the worst way I've seen a franchise attempt to tidy up their own canon scattered across Digital and Physical media...
I agree with all that you say I don't know about you 343 Industries has impressed me once again
@i hate anime Say what you want, it fleshed out a lot of the backstory that was missing.
anime how the covenant was formed, for one, why the position of "arbiter" which is usually a badge of honor was instead a last chance at dying with your sins expunged and your honor restored for another, just why the Forerunners pushed the Button that wiped out everything, even the suit and reason for fighting on Algolis that we see in The Prototype helps flesh out background lore.
Its weird but the Elites had a life just like the Spartans of old Greece did
And now they're being killed by Spartans too.
marty mojzisik They were more like the Japanese
LimpShrimp no if u pay attention to what they all wear and act towards each other they're more Greek then for some reason once they meet the Covenant then they get all samurai like
marty mojzisik
No they're more like japanese.
The Spartans are more like Greek spartans.
Why would bungie have 2 species that behave like spartans?
Sanghelie have a sort of bushido code, live for their "brothers" and are more military than political
@@animock3051 Alright guys, this was two years ago but holy shit that is the most nerdy discussion I've EVER seen! Love it.
RIP Sesa 'Refumee: The Only One Who Understood the Truth :(
The fall of the Covenant was the Prophets' own doing...by letting the most dangerous Sanghelli live despite his failure....by letting him become the Arbiter....
Arbiters were meant to be sent on suicide mission, that were too difficult for the prophets to handle. The idea was to get rid of a political opponents while making use of his talents.
Nathan Guy Too bad that bit the Prophets hard in the ass
starkiller871 Indeed. Although he died he in turn became a martyr to spark the truth of the Sanshyum's deceptions
I wonder if he started broadcasting his message in an attempt to get the arbiter sent after him
19:04 ok....for everyone who played halo and love killing grunts....this must be the moment when you feel how much horrible guy you are when you killed all those grunts all game long :P
To all the grunts i ever killed....sorry
I feel so bad now... All that time slowly picking them off watching them run and beg for mercy as a walked up to them calmly after dispatching the elites ................ Then I .... I .... I KILLED THEM ALL WITHOUT EVEN THINKING ABOUT IT.... And i was merciless.... At least it was relatively quick getting hut by the but of an assault rifle with superhuman strength...... I used to think they weren't worth the bullet... I regret it all now...........
To any grunts I've killed or who's family's are forever grieving I AM SORRY
Melvin Cade well i kind of feel bad for killing grunts as well too :(
damn... i feel sorry for them... i killed billions without knowing their story... their survival... at least the ones who run away from me i didn't kill them cuz they weren't worth waisting bullets, but i was like "nah, they will be dead anyway..." so... unngoys! i'm sorry for killing you behind your butts!! ;-;
I watched the terminal, then left to see some grunts, and i just stared at them like 'IM SO SORRY!'
Yeah was for me like that, good those poor little things...I want to hug! xD
But I still kill them anyway :D
Man I miss the Arbiter, he needs to return to the franchise. I was disappointed he wasn't even mentioned in Infinite
He was mentioned
there was a stuffed animal easter egg lol
There was a small plushie of him and a marine dialogue where he said something along the lines of “I wonder what the arbiter is doing rn”
Hes probably in a dlc
Screw that, he's got an interesting storyline but he's a freakin killer with about a billion deaths on his hands. He's a helluva bad guy
It's really cool finally getting to see Fred and Linda.
Yeah, it's pretty nice!
Except they have Spartan IV armor! That shit didn't exist then, and the bullshit "nanotechnology" doesn't apply yet.
Nah Spartan 4 armor is sleeker. Blue team seems to be sticking with MK VI for whatever reason.
I think Mike Colter did an excellent job as Agent/Spartan Locke in these terminals and on the miniseries Nightfall. I just don’t understand why they didn’t keep him to voice Locke in Halo 5.
Oxhorn Is A Shill Apparently it was a scheduling conflict between Halo 5 and his Marvel work. And I’m sure Marvel was paying him more.
Scheduling issues most likely. I think he was working on the Netflix Marvel shows at the time (probably filming Jessica Jones or Luke Cage)
I do really love Ike Amadi's performance as Locke, but he didn't have that extra flare that Colter had. I'd love to see Colter return to the role though.
lol in 20:25 you can see a picture of the Arbiter from the Duel in Halo Legends, the one wielding 2 energy swords, exactly the one who disgraced the title.
7thDylan also Ripa moramee
These terminals are really good, and give us some great backstory on the Arbiters, the Elites, the origins of the Covenant, and the events between Halo CE and Halo 2. Check it out!
Thank you for the upload! I love a good halo history trip.
Thanks for the halo history field trip it explains a lot of questions me and a couple 100k halo fans had
nikolai belinski thanks for being the famous drunk that everyone loves
No problem ;)
Is the narrator Locke?
Love the reference to the Cole Protocol in the beginning! Yes, I think it was Jai-006 from Spartan gray team (still in the original Mark IV armor) who slams into Thel (Arbiter), and Thel slams his head against Jai's repeatedly until his mouth fills with his own blood, and he screams: "Demon! Demon!" What a great part of the book, honestly, this terminal cutscene doesn't do it justice, but it's still cool to see.
Very late to say but mad credit to 343 for bringing in Miguel Ferrer to reprise his role as the heretic leader 10 years later
Although we recorded this in high quality, you will some some instances of lower quality picture. The reason for this is that all terminals are NOT on disc, but rather on the Halo Channel, so they're streamed every time you watch. Even though we have a good internet connection, every now again you will see a slight degradation of quality because of quick buffering. We tried recording several times with similar results. We figure the Halo Channel still needs some work, especially considering how terrible the Halo MCC servers have been at launch. If we see improvements in the future we will re-record for you guys.
***** your name is ironic but good that we are all friends.
Quick Question is the first video affiliated with the achievement "Curious" for a terminal because my halo channel wont work
Gamer's Little Playground Thank you for your efforts, it is very much appreciated.
That's interesting and now it makes sense about the lack of full quality. The HCEA Terminals were included in the disk (all of them in .usm format, 1152x648px and in 8 different languages, every single in a .adx audio format).
So it was the forerunners that sold out Earth.
+snivithefox butterfly effect my brother
+LegionaryWithAGladius darn lack of foresight.
+snivithefox the fuck kind of foresight do you have to see 100,000 years in the future
+Rogue Element (Ravager) The kind of ppl who stick giant magnets on the planets that they want glassed in 100,000 years.
Not quite. Truth had already learned of the location of Earth before Regret. Unyielding Hierophant was created to harbor the greatest fleet the Covenant could render in order to attack Earth.
This is what 343 needs to continue doing. Did the guy who write this stuff write the Reclaimer Saga stuff too? I say this because whoever wrote these terminals needs to be the head of story-writing. Not only is this real accurate with the lore, but they added a hell lot more to it.
Actually most of the terminals were based off the extended universe and books! You should give them all a read :P
Thespartzter Yeah, I know. I plan to, but there is just too much lol. Most of what I do know is from cultural osmosis during my old vs debating days. I've read a few excerpts as well, but I hope to pick up some of them soon. :P
Exactly. This is the interesting stuff.
The Halo Channel also has the annoying function of backing out of the video 3 seconds before it finishes, but leaving the audio running. We edited these instances out by cutting to black screen for a couple of seconds, or by slowing down the playback rate of the video for the last couple of seconds so that the video ends with the audio. These are by no means perfect solutions, but when the Halo Channel backs you out of the video, it gets annoying and it takes you out of the experience. So we though it would be better to edit that out.. We hope you understand.
holy crap, meridian, from halo 5, omg, they could have found a guardian
Oh shit you're right. That would have accelerated things significantly!
You mean Meridian Bay?
12:28 oh shit are they talking about that arbiter episode from Halo Legends?!
Yes, Sesa 'Refumee was talking about Fal 'Chavamee
anyone notice when 343 guilty spark is talking to the heretic he says "your reclaimer" as in master chief?
yep he called you reclaimer a lot in halo 1 especially in the final mission where you are trying to destroy the Ship and every time he will say something then finish it off with reclaimer
he calls chief reclaimer for reasons I don't know
+St0rm Fall that's what he calls all humans
Well, simply put, at one time in Halo, the forunners were ancient humans, but for whatever reason this was changed.
+St0rm Fall in halo follower I watched a video why 343 guilty spark calls him that. in halo 4 also there are details why 343 calls him this just play halo 4
These are quite good, indeed. I commend 343 for sticking so closely to the rich lore established in the novels and other literary-based sources. One discrepancy I've noticed with an event I was familiar with, though, was the absorption of the Mgalekgolo into the Covenant. The terminal mentions an Arbiter that encountered them, yes, but it never mentions anything about the formidable resistance they initially mounted against the invading Sangheili. One source lead me to believe that their resistance was so fierce, that they managed to kill an Arbiter; and once they were forced to submit after intense orbital bombardment of their world, they were accepted into the Covenant as hard hitting, heavy infantry units to supplement the latter's military forces in light of their impressive combat prowess.
I don't know. I still don't have any complaints about that terminal's version of the campaign. It was a fantastic piece of lore, nonetheless.
I think maybe the tale about the Arbiter trekking across their homeworld is supposed to be before the war/bombardment.
I am a long-time Halo fan, having grown up on the series. Halo 2 is the first game in the series that I picked up and fell in love with it despite its flaws. Watching this brought a fucking tear to my eye as to how they managed to inject so much backstory and lore into the game, rendered in such a beautiful fashion. They even tied in the Arbiter story from Halo Legends!
"I'm getting the feeling that you're not very smart" LOL xD
Itheil I loled at that scene.
Dude. The Arbiter was a fucking monster on the battlefield.
All this halo lore is making my face tingle. feels good man
It explains why the grunts are so freaking strong on legendary. Truly worthy infantry warriors
yeah...ok arby is a fucking badass
Hey Bruce, what are you getting your parents for Christm...... oh, too soon? ;)
I am grateful for your complement, b̶a̶t̶m̶a̶n̶ Bruce Wayne.
Thel 'Vadam
Hey, shouldn't you search for 117 together with Locke? shush! come back when you have found him....or when i can "command" you again in a game.....
I really want the Arbiter as a playable char again...maybe even in an Spin Off
Thel 'vadame
Well no, because its either Vadamee or Vadam but not Vadame ;D
Thel 'vadame And why would you be name me heretic? even some of the worst imposters know I had abandoned the old religion.
4:05 I love that you can hear Halo Reach-like music. A final, somber tribute to the lives lost.
I'm honestly surprised the Cole Protocol worked as long as it did, especially with the fall of Reach which was basically the last bastion before Earth itself. And it didn't even fail at any point, the Covenant found Earth by complete accident.
Plot convenience.
Damn, the Arbiter is such a badass.
Goddamn. Years after playing Halo 2, and that ending gives me chills regardless.
Well done 343 Industries these terminals tell an untold story that only those who have either read books or found other story bits not part of the games. like Halo 4 I am once again impressed by 343 industries keeping to the storyline that all Halo fans enjoy. With the impressive remastering of Halo 2 I look forward to be playing the newest addition to the halo saga halo 5 guardians with confidence that they will impress me once again.
***** how so?
*****
ill give you the cortana hand-off that always bugged me, but i think i can offer a few counterpoints for the rest
the chief may have been friendly with the arbiter and a few of his brethren but he had been fighting them for a LOT longer, so if one tried to stab him, its fair to assume they switched back (example: any truce ever). I'm pretty sure the entire covenant got wiped out in the same sense as the empire after return of the Jedi, in that there remain a few pockets of fanatics (who i imagine wouldnt be that bothered if anyone else wanted to join them) but that's just a theory thus far, which also explains the absence of brutes and buggers (who weren't in the first game anyway so ha).
chiefs armor could have had some nanobot repair or something but its all a bit iffy because of that bloody great scratch on the chest so again, you may hold more sway there
i think the entirety of halo 4 does quite a good job of showing cortana going mental, and i cant remember shit with just one voice picking apart my logic, so im more amazed by her capacity to not start shitting on the virtual carpets as she thinks herself to oblivion even if she does take a fiery shortcut
the frigate is pretty expansive when we see it in halo 3 dropping our glorious dispenser of tungsten pain and again when we bounce off it in the long night of solace so its not a huge stretch to see it pretty well equipped as far as corridors and that one bit on the back with the missile
and as for Halsey, i would think ONI, known for being halfway to the Illuminati as far as infrastructure goes, would be quite eager to hide the developer of the i imagine highly controversial spartan program from anyone without a big badge of ONI or something.
BOOM next question i love talking halo with people who also like to talk halo
Technically the story doesn't require counterpoints, just a bit of deeper understanding. Also shut up my counterpoints study hard and their teacher says they're improving
fucking flop
Opinion on 343 9 years later?
Hmm what's the best way to convince Thel 'Vadamee? I think I better open fire just as he begins to have doubts about the prophets.
"I'm beginning to think you are not very smart."
Do consider:
A) Thel, at that point, was still a fanatic believer, bent on reclaiming his lost honour
B) The station they were in was falling into a gas giant that would've crushed it hole. Gameplay factors aside, they would've had minutes at most, if not seconds
C) As one of the terminals states, the Heretic leader didn't believe he could turn Thel. Hell, what was indicative in that scene that Thel was actually believing him? his look could be mistaken for mere awe of the Monitor.
Were they anywhere else, then I would agree it would be stupid. But in this case, I believe it was a pragmatic choice: better to let one seen in shame by the Covenant die and live on to convert more followers, rather than waste time trying to sway him when he was about to die and there was no guarantee Thel would agree.
Let’s be honest Thel wouldn’t have believed him.
dude i cried when that grunt cried ;'(
20:30, Our boy Ripa, straight out of Halo Wars
24:12
When the Music cues as Sesa mentions Thel (Arbiter), it gave me chills knowing he is the “chosen one”
Imagine being ONI and knowing all this.
Let’s just say I’m glad Johnson was there to get the Arbiter to start an alliance.
19:36
"Mind your tongue"
I feel sad every time i see in the book that keyes led them to reach... :,(
I feel bad for the Ungoy, poor little things :(
Great homage to The Duel from the Halo Legends movie
The human covenant war was so interesting... I wish there was more we could see as a game.
i miss the covenant, i miss fighting a uniform enemy with loyal fighters rather than the banished thats all feral and brutal towards each other
@@sneaky5412 the covenant when done right were just more fun in general. The banished were an interesting idea but the original covenant were just too great an idea.
@@murloc_rampage3856 exactly
Very nice little addition of backstory there. Even some stuff that wasn't mentioned in the books which is something I always appreciate.
My biggest concern with the terminals was that they would just rehash what was already told in the books but as this is not the case I am quite pleased.
love how they did canon "The Duel"
Read "Broken Circle" for info on this San 'Shyuum historian and the whole formation of the Covenant! I did, and it all fits together now!
That was cool getting to hear voices behind Fred and Linda, also getting a quick glimpse of their faces. I new Linda was described with blood red hair and hazel eyes, but I never got Fred in picture. I can also put voices to the books I'm reading now. :P
Just got halo: mcc after not playing for a few years. Discovered a terminal and had to see how many there were and to hear the story behind them. I've read most of the books and this adds to the lore and I love it
Fun fact: one of the stewards voices is GeneralIvan he does the voice of Cooler in Dragon Ball Z Abridged.
For real
19:00 :'( can't stop crying. Right in the feels
SO happy to see the rest of blue team in the actual game and the acknowledgement of the events of first strike
I love the little nod to the Halo Legends story, The Duel.
I'm not a fan of the direction that 343i is taking Halo.....but this still gives me hope as naive as it may be. This was a masterful way to both flesh out the covenant's history and the heretics at once. Honestly I'd argue this is some of the best Halo storytelling we've ever experienced, if 343i is capable of this; maybe just maybe they'll bring halo back to its glory. I'm still skeptical, but at least hopeful.
What is your opinion on infinite campaign?
I don't need a entire remake of halo 3, I just want remakes of the cutscenes and new terminal cutscenes.
I haven't taken the time yet to locate all of the terminals. I hadn't realized just how much they were tying in the Evolutions mini-series into the main lore. It's actually pretty great to see it.
This really puts those two heretic missions in different light
Am I the only one who finds Agent Locke annoying?
JD Parker I know this is four year comment but yeah I’m hoping they either make his character more likeable in infinite or just scrap/fade him into obscurity
A lot of people do for reasons I will never understand......
he was good imo like captain lasky and buck but others not so much
Anjaney Asreet Rout because he take so much place in the new story and he’s not interesting or fun to watch
V Diamond Dogs My guess is he’ll be a Player 3 or Player 4 in Halo Infinite. My biggest hope for the game is we get Chief and Arbiter as one and two, then Locke and Buck as three and four.
Have Locke and Buck serve the roles N’tho and Usze played in Halo 3: They are present, but aren’t important to the story.
Anjaney Asreet Rout I can’t even fathom comparing Locke and Lasky to Buck. Buck is a gift from the Forerunners, Lasky and Locke served as exposition fodder with minimal character
commenting right after i finished watching the terminal on the grunt rebellion. I feel so bad for them now, poor guys are forced out to fight and they're basically canon fodder. Brave little buggers for trying to stand up against the covenant. My heart goes out to them :'(
seeing the bit about the origin of the arbiter's position gave me legends flash backs
This is really well put together. Well done!!!
Did anyone else tear up at the history of the Grunts? I felt it was really sad :c
9:20 Garrus from Mass Effect Series! :O
So many references from the books! I love them so much.
Nice tie with the books with the Blue Team shout cameo
30:20 "Oh yeah, and Vice Admiral Whitcomb is dead..."
Shit, I need to read First strike one of these days.
Funny trivia from the Great Schism
At least one San'Shyuum survived the Great Schism: Zo Resken, who respected the Sangheili and was about to be executed because of it (Source: Halo: Broken Circle)
more San'Shyuum survived than that, just not very many. The number is in the 1,000s but I am not certain if that is only those that escaped High Charity or if it includes their home world too. I believe the latter to be true, they are now an endangered species
Yeah, I know, but Zo Resken is the only one known of those 1000 San'Shyuum
futbolluva I believe they are hiding on the inactive installations. Mourning over how they can't "transcend into godhood" anymore. Maybe we will see a few in halo 5.
Their homeworld was destroyed many eons ago. They're probably hiding in Forerunner Shield Worlds, a few Halos, and in several Covenant Fleets. The question is, though, if they finally know the truth about the Forerunners and the Humans or if they're still delusional and zealous
Jose .Mendez High Charity wad their home world. Eons ago they converted it into a space ship.
Most likely Theyre still zealous, but I don't know if they have much long to live as a species.
I love how they just tell stories back to back
This was very interesting thanx for the upload
Lol, Locke, if you don't know how 'Vadam found Reach, why don't you just ask him?
XD, i guess hes gonna want to ask you a few questions too! XDDDD
When Locke did his report about Thel 'Vadam (September 26, 2552), the UNSC still was in war against the Covenant
Master Chief A tracking device was planted on one of the UNSC ships that went to reach, thats how they found us, they knew we self destructed ships upon attack or being border so they changed tact
Yo that story of the arbiter who lost, Halo Legends man
“I am starting to fear that you are not very smart”
“MIND YOUR TONGUE ORACLE!!”
Aw come on, why they are so mean with the grunties? ):
I mean wort wort wort.
I like how so many were about Arby but not I single one included his own words XD
Sesa Refumee is such an awesome character
4:05 my man Vadamee putting Mao’s KDR to shame
Thanks for the upload =)
Make the great journey great again!
those grunts nobody understands them do you listen to them in battle? They don't want to fight... they know they will die
they know they are fodder
This lore is so much more complex than I ever could have understood as a kid
Finally about time they explained the fleet engagements on unsc colonies
NOW: Take a look at CoD story, then Halo. I think Halo is just more complex that your average FPS nowadays.
+The Letter Q to be fair, CoD hasn't had multiple books from good writers to expand the lore
+theroadie451 CoD can't have a lore, they jump stories each game, making it impossible to make a lore, even if they stuck to one story, the lore would still suck, lmao.
Rulingmoss55
Eh, there is the Modern Warfare trilogy they could expand on, the black ops games+storyline is ongoing. That said, due to the real world setting of such games as the Modern Warfare entries, you could just take a Tom Clancy book and change the characters to the ones in the games and there you go, a CoD book.
10:29 When you realize you left the stove on... (Sorry I had to XD)
Amazing edit on the terminal videos. XD
Reading the Cole Protocol and first strike clears all of this up
