SUPER-RED-FALCON I love how I only just realised Lord hood was played by ron perlman

Quickaston Oh really? Haha. Halo has some great voice talent. :)

you trust cortana that much?

@@alanestrada5987 sir, yes sir.

@@Crusty783 Well, this is either the best decision you've ever made or the worst.

and then 343 retconned that and now they're still alive on the ark

because 343 ruins everything@@Tuxedo512

@@Tuxedo512Nah, our boy master chief is still on the Dawn - fast asleep. Still waiting for Cortana to wake him up from this terrible dream he’s been having since 2007… hell of a coma… 🥲

That's why you can hear the Gravemind say, Little Liar! And her slave!

Tricked how? Can someone please enlighten me?

M. Scribonious Fuck yeah, nice detail.

I just noticed this!

I interpreted it as them giving mutual respect.

For a minute there I thought they were standing up to show respect

I think they're standing out of respect for their seargent, seargent on deck sort of situation

I’m playing rn, I freaken love this scene, Johnson’s thinking damn I knocked out Tartarus (tartarsauce) aka mr Mohawks shield out with this baby, ima need a whole crate........

Not just that. Johnson’s got Plasma Carbines and Beam Rifles, while Arbiter’s carrying a Rocket Launcher and a Flamethrower. These two know the deal and aren’t shying from the fact the other has better weapons for different situations. Not here to debate it, just what these two think are better weapons.

@@JunkPhuJP I wonder if that's the same Flamethrower he uses at the end of Cortana

Which book is it

@@Krosstic it’s called The Last Voyage of the Infinite Succor

How did it happen, I haven’t read the book

@@backyardfreestyle2390 To sum it up briefly, Rtas was on a mission that went to shit when the Flood showed up, wiping out his whole squad, including a very old friend of his who was also an incredibly skilled Swordsman like him. His friend became a Flood Form and retained his memory of his fighting skill, and the two battled for a while and it ended with Rtas getting half his mandibles sliced off, and he had to kill his old friend. That is putting it very simply but that about sums it up.

@@TheHypersniper0812 no way! That’s such a cool bit of backstory! Thanks for replying so quickly on such an old comment as well haha lol

"If it were not for the Arbiter's council, i would have glassed your Entire PLANET!" Shit gives me chills

He was 71 here I think

"One single Flood spore can destroy a species."

Shipmaster, they're outnumbered us 3-1" "Then it is an even fight"

Were it so easy

Sad part is, 343's boner for making the humans op completely ruined the nuances of Halo 3. Apparently 343 revealed that the humans still had hundreds of colonies that weren't destroyed by the Covenant during the War. Lord Hood's stress over Earth being all they have left makes no sense after 343 decided to retcon it. In addition to their books describing the Elites as incompetent idiots, they've made all the villains feel like a joke. Very much prefer the tone that Bungie's games presented. The tone of 343's Halo universe feels more like a superhero melodrama than a space opera adventure.

YuChen Chen infinite will change that

@@ethandolezal619 hopefully

Ethan Dolezal Well, that's either the best assumption you've ever made or the worst. Hell of it is, Ethan? i doubt i'll live long enough to find out which.

The buildup is phenomenal and I love it too.

That’s because they all thought the gravemind’s target was earth, but actually he did find out about the Ark and panic jumped there.

Not even close to the halo 2 cut scenes

@@Anas0_ali That's because Halo 2 anniversary graphics was perfect, it's true tho i rewatch halo 2 anniversary a lot never gets old.

@@Anas0_ali Imagine if Halo 3A came out, how this cutscene would look...

369 Adaptive Perspective they probably will do it one day but the animation still doesn’t look bad so they’re gonna sit on it I reckon

@@popyoshi0666 except the elites

At that time it was their best option

There better be a reference to this in Infinite

@@krapto3467 yes

Not really. Saving her was the only option to stop the Flood. Even the way things worked out, I don't think that decision is what haunted him at all. It was objectively the right call.

@@valdeezycleaver What I meant was, the decision of either letting Cortana get consumed by the Gravemind, and the flood taking over the galaxy once again, or chief rescuing Cortana and conveniently allowing her to go rampant in freedom and take over the galaxy was a lose-lose either way, which is why it haunts him. One could make the argument that the actual outcome was the lesser of the two evils, but they were negative either way.

"One single flood spore can destroy a species"

"Protocol dictated my response, she had the activation index and you were going to destroy my installation. You DID destroy my installation."

“Now I have only one function, to help you reclaimer as I always should have done.”

Master Chief: I'll fuckin do it again

Sad truth

Ikr this and the ark scene literally made me replay halo 3 five times

He doesn't talk endlessly in the new games. He talks more than you think in the old ones. Sort of tired of people complaining so stupidly.

Revolver Ocelot I think he means in halo 4 where chief talks even during gameplay

I agree. When Johnson dies and Cortana says shes sorry, you can really see the emotion in him without him even saying anything. Its all about those subtle movements. Way better than just explicitly saying everything

The silent protagonist has kind of died off in video games.

@@revolverocelot1380 Halo 4 and 5 prefer either leaving important details in outside lore or shoving them in your face and having everything be told, not shown. For example the constant discussion about what the Chief is thinking about the area around him or how he feels about events that just happened in the cutscenes. His dialogue for Halo CE was only around a minute and a half including death screams, and similarly he had sparse lines in Halo 2 and 3. He spoke a lot only when during debriefing and the like, sharing information, where of course he should, and otherwise didn't say much. Think of the intro to Metropolis, the exit cutscene of Tsavo Highway, even the Epilogue of Halo 3. Halo 4 and 5, however, have the Chief talk a lot more than he did prior, expressing every thought and feeling that crosses his mind, which contradicts his personality as written in Halo 3 and further makes 343's Chief feel like a different character. While not inherently bad, a big part of why Halo was so beloved was that the lack of dialogue during gameplay left players to decide how THEY felt about events going on, not be told what their character feels about it. And all those words meant rather than being shown what we were about to be dropped into, usually we just had it explained. No more mystery, no more subtle gestures, no more body language, because the characters instead just said what they'd have implied through their movement.

And what's better is while Hood outranks _all_ of them, he's still aware of his position and knows when to step back.

@Keith He probably doesn’t outrank the Shipmaster though.

@@davidpowers1175 Technically he doesn't outrank any elite as they do not have to take orders from him they serve the shipmaster but I see your point. Shipmaster is basically Lord Hoods equal.

Shipmaster is his equal and would squash him to bits

Nah, they were boutta fight if anything. That red elite was looking proud af and didn't appreciate when johnson snagged the beam rifle next to him

If I recall there were even Human sympathizers among the Elites. Very few, but it was there, and they constantly wondered why not allow Humans when they were much more capable than the Grunts. Mostly because Humans completely invalidated the Covenant religion. The Prophets, as power hungry (and inbred) as they always are, couldn't have that happening.

That’s an awesome detail, wow. Thank you

@Nick Gurr no u

Trauma Child ok

Corner.... Now.... Think about what you said!

Sorry but only cortana is naked, the other AI's in other halo games gave clothes.

Lol just noticed how cortana's boobs oddly seem to have weight to them

The ironic thing was that Del Rio's role in the story is very much similar to Lord Hood just that the execution was off and I believe that's what the writers are trying to pull off but yes, they definitely made him a bitch. They could have made Del Rio more reasonable but still against Chief, after all they are in an unknown world, unknown enemy whose numbers (and power are unknown), possibly without support, and the only ship like the Infinity. Powerful doesn't mean invincible as in examples such as the Yamato, the Bismarck, and even the Persians in the battle of Thermopylae. My head cannon believes that Hood wants to believe there's hope in Chief which is why he allows them to go with the Elites.

@@xavierchen7054 Well yeah, but the Infinity had just got done absolutely bashing down at least 6-7 Covenant cruisers and the Didacts little sphere while it itself was grounded and immobile. I'm not saying there wasn't a reason to cautious, but I'd say the Infinity had just obliterated most of the Covenant forces. Imagine what would happen if it got up and used it's carrier force to aid it.

reach is better

​@@ticklemetanner888reach sucks

​@@ticklemetanner888reach ruined halo.

“Shipmaster they outnumber us 3 to 1” that line from the shipmaster gives me chills

"Let it play"

lol especially when you are in the restroom

Or even elites coming out of pelicans with marines or marines coming out of the green phantoms
