i'm glad the boycott is stopping me from doing something stupid like actually buying the halo remake and being sad about it. what a dark fate for a once classic series

i'm so familiar with the dialogue in the original halo that watching footage of campaign evolved and hearing new recordings of the same lines has an effect that i can only describe as "audio uncanny valley"

being someone who got really invested in the lore of halo 2 specifically in the mid 2000s is a fate i wouldnt wish on anyone. longest suffering heroes on the planet

even halo 3, which is mostly a classic, i'm like. you got scared. you blinked. you lost something. this is too 9/11 never forget. arbiter and chief are meant to be twin solid snakes on opposite sides. did you forget the unsc are evil. get marty out of the writers room

Halo never really reckoning with the fact SPARTANs are child soldier super weapons meant to curb stop rebellious colonists and weren't even *that* great at fighting the Covy was always annoying like they're so close.

idk I guess it gets worse but i'm not sure they ever thought the unsc were bad in the actual games, the first game is about the virtues of stoic heinlein militarism vs organised religion (also how you can be an emotionally closed off teenage boy and the cute girl will definitely still like you)

Does she speak in em dashes now

you joke but
