Space opera unbound worlds11/13/2023 And again with the helmet off in a room with all the guns pointed at him, why just why. Because on the on hand we get to see how they are totally a new thing for some, while others have been taken and released by them, and their attacks are well known and the sources of many technologies people use in their daily lives or have seen, but they are still being told to us through the writing as being something more of a myth ? Please pick a lane, what they hell are they, in Halo games it was pretty clear when where and how they where known and fitted in, here in two episodes it feels like they are telling two different things. It's hard to tell in the show if the enemy is really well know or not at all know by the humans in this univers. And the worst thing it's not just the writing it's also the look of the show and the slaughter of all that good lore they could have used. Not only was this boring to watch, it was almost painful at times. It feels like they have hired not only people that don't know the Halo univers at all, but are entirely new to writing a show. Just cancelled my paramount account and said the reason, just hope there isn't a season 2 and that maybe, just maybe, this serve as a lesson that you should at least try to understand the core concept of something you are adapting for tv.also, gaming is an industry bigger than tv shows and cinema combined, don't try to take a high road and say you don't care about the games. I swear i dont care if he takes his helmet of or no, or how TF they have gravity on a small rock, but please, this IP is lovecraftian, is cosmic horror, not some political drama set in space. Super weapons designed to deal with a threat of total anihilation, by the covenant, then, by the flood.who cares about a tyrant on a small planet, or master chief's past when we have an apocalipse at our doorstep. If you take that away, the expanse is an even greater show about humanity facing the unknown, and tthats what halo is about. It looks like the showrunners didn't have time to look at the games, but to watch 6 seasons of the expanse they had, and still, they took the most boring part of the show, wich is the conflict between humans. why is there a human in the Covenant cworld?! A prison full of crazy people that somehow has one who knows about Forerunners? What the heck is happening?Įven with the constant warnings we had from the showrunners in interviews, saying that they didn't play or research the games, i decided to give this one a try, after all is a $ 200 million show about one of the most beloved franchises in the world, and what i got was disappointment.This girl just saw everyone she knew getting slaughtered by an alien race and still refuses to help the UNSC who are clearly the only ones able to deal with them. Why did you remove Masterchiefs helmet so quickly or at all? Why are they making him break his character so soon by betraying the UNSC? Why is Cortana a clone and not just a super AI for a ship that has to be in Masterchiefs helmet just to be safe, and thus they have the strongest character relationship of the entire Halo series? Why aren't we exploring the Forerunners other than looking at this one ruin? Why are we seeing a lame ex-Spartan that immediately takes away the coolness of the Spartans? Omg I do not care about his family, stop wasting my time. Who cares about the rebels and this teenage girl? The main story of Halo has always been the UNSC versus the Covenant, not this. The first episode was okay because of the action but by episode 2, it's pretty clear that sadly they're going into some awful storylines. I have played nearly all the games and this is totally not Halo.
