@@ArilMavenA good story is a good story, it’s an alternate universe not a direct adaptation. It’s fair to say people would have preferred a direct adaptation, but judge the story being presented on its own merit
@@alexoneil3796 Yes you are right, but it seems a big factor why they are doing this is due to budget. Think about it - no Spartans on-screen using MJOLNIR during the Fall of Reach, Makee taking over some of the Arbiter role in the Silver Timeline, less battle sequences (to be expected), and still no Scorpion tank or Covenant ghost.
One of the things I hate about Kai this season is the attitude of, “I can’t trust Chief because he’s been seeing dead people…. Oh wait! Makee’s alve?! Never mind! I can’t trust Chief because he must be working with her.” Won’t even acknowledge the fact he was right about what he saw on Sanctuary.
Well Kai did shoot Makee, she thought for sure she was dead and the one person (Perez) who could testify what John saw, decided to not remember the events.
She always trusted him, she just thought he was being manipulated or misguided. Keep in mind they’ve been somewhat emotionless soldiers for most of their lives. When she first took out the implant she was acting strange in season 1 too. More emotional and questioning decisions much like Master Chief towards Hasley but like Kai always trusted Chief, Chief still trusts Hasley to some degree.
THis is from the book Silent Storm " Deep down, John knew he had been wronged when he was taken from his family at such an early age-that he should have hated his abductors for robbing him of a normal childhood. But he didn’t. They had molded a schoolyard bully into a soldier, then forged him into the leader of the finest fighting unit in the UNSC. He was grateful for that." THis is a very very different Chief in this show - I dont like it. I wish they just used a different spartan team lol. John knew he became more than what he was designed for and was proud of it and cortana heped him realize that too.
This is like that scene in the games where there is an officer that tries to make Chief out as a psychopath and Halsey answers "He is exactly what we need him to be" or some such, knowing full well that Chief is one of the most sane individuals in that universe, especially past H4.
@@StanvilleBrownwhy not? Master Chief never took off his helmet in the games and they were still incredibly popular. You tell Master Chief’s story through his actions and dialogue, not his facial expressions.
The Spartans don’t really care about that they are more or less black op soldiers sometimes the law gets in the way of what is right the problem is when the commanding officers giveing them the orders are not moral people
I don't remember specifics, but I remember reading something in the UCMJ where it's like "if you obey an unlawful order, that is in itself unlawful" because you have a duty to follow lawful orders from your superiors
They have taken one of the most beloved characters in Sci-Fi and not only made him unlikeable, made him irrelevant to the story. MC isn't a spy or politician. He's a soldier who gives humanity hope against the Covenant. Not fighting his own fellow spartans.
Yes is the games he did end up disobeying orders but that was because of the loyalty he had built up with Cortana. This guy seems more like he’s just rebellious by nature which is just ridiculous.
@@ErikDayne yep. And that rebellious behavior was the result of he and Cortana learning more about the forerunners and trying to do the right thing. Even then, plenty were still supportive of MC, such as Laskey.
@@TViper2369yeah and it made it that much more significant when he did disobey orders because that’s not who he was, so he was genuinely torn as to what to do. With this version of Master Chief it seems he would disobey the order without a second thought, which makes it much less meaningful.
@@ErikDayne and make no mistake ONI is evil. That’s just not the interesting story in Halo, it’s not a good starting point. Any run of the mill action thriller can do that. There’s no reason to put the name Halo on that project.
I think they did such a great job putting respect on soldiers and what they give and how corporations take advantage of them in politics. When the truth is most soldiers don’t want to be puppets they just want to do the right thing
I've been playing Halo for over 20 years. This is so inconsistent with how the games and books are. Halo: Twilight tier conflicts. This show feels more like Space Buffy the Covenant Slayer than a genuine Halo series. So far the only part that seemed to "get it" was the Spartan III training and the season 1 finale battle at the desert temple and the season 1 mid season battle where he boards the banshee. This
Ah yes this is exactly what Halo fans wanted to see, not Master Chief fighting covenant in his armor, let’s see him fight a Spartan with no armor. Fantastic.
Yes but they basically made them to good in season one you see silver team defeat a force more then 3 times their size with more advanced weapons if they wanted to play out something similar to the story line with the Spartans basically getting killed off on a normal basis they need to make them more vulnerable so more and more helments come off armor left behind
Say what you will about the characterization, “lore-accurate” doesn’t mean “suit always on,” from what I hear. The books had him suit off as well. The games never touch on it because he's pretty much always in an active situation outside of the Halo 2 opener. Not really any situations he *could* have taken it off.
People ( correctly ) complained about too much helmetless sequences in season 1, plus a "too soon" helmet off unveiling of Chief's face ( with no build up ), and now they double down with the no helmet sequences and added a that entire "fighting with no armor episode". The writers and producers don't understand Halo and prob didn't even play the games. The average fan underatands the essence and nuance of Halo better.
You know what I would not put a comment in here with a bunch of freaks who complains a lot about this show there are still people who like this show and the only ones who are hurting is yourselves and also this comment section is not help you one bit you should’ve been used to this show by now but every episode after another it’s always the same thing in the comment section
I understand that it is very different from the games, but this is simply an adaptation. Also, there are other movies more faithful to the games storyline. I loved this show, and the performances. They have a parallel au vibe.
It’s really sad that we can see the switch in the relationship. One believes in something the other doesn’t a lot of predictions. A lot of things can happen. I just hope that both characters make it throughout this season. We all know that kai never wanted to do it
Having Kiki Wolfkill ( Halo 5 ) be the project lead for this show was a mistake. Most of this season is twilight level fan-fic tier just like Halo 5 was. In fact Halo 5 was even better than this and Halo 5 was awful. This is just more of an extension of Locke vs Chief except its Kai Vs Chief instead. 🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴
The armor is made from a extremely rare metal so when they ran away from reach they took every piece which th them for the Spartans they deemed salvageable and the new ones they were trying to make
@@shadowspidey7327 You’re right (he went down on the second hit), but half the reason he lasted as long as he did was because he had Cortana helping him, and even then it wasn’t “no problem”. And, honestly, neither the show *nor* the games truly show us how much of a strength and speed boost the armor actually gives a Spartan. But the lore does, and it’s a lot more than you think.
Wow... the whole plot of Halo 5 but in 5 minutes and done WAY better. Even does the armour locked pose when he drops. I'm impressed. There is indeed some love for the franchise that bled through this time.
So Chief is getting beat up again. John aka Sierra 117 aka Master Chief is getting beaten up again......and by his own teammate who must have lost apart of her brain because she forgot the fact that John was telling everyone the covenant was on Reach and was correct but wants to act like hes a traitor.....sigh. Ok.
Can they call this something other than Halo at this point? This is pure canon only with 0 respect for the actual Halo series, this is flat out disrespectful.
This makes absolutely NO SENSE. Why would the writers decide to have John get curbstomped by his own teammate whose life he saved multiple times in this show? Now she’s a mindless servant for Akerson? I’m sorry but Season 2 is much worse than Season 1. Paramount needs to just cancel this series.
Ackerson played his cards well to convince her that Chief was compromised. John is actively choosing not to fight because she is his teammate. And it does end up working, her eyes opening to the truth of her team and Reach.
congratulations Paramount. you guys make me and my girlfriend stop watching Halo on the ep7! normal subtitle doesn’t work it’s okay, you guys are not a big company, but on the aliens conversation subtitle doesn’t work it’s completely ridiculous! we going to netflix where they do the bare minimum: SUBTITLE!
The Halo TV show is a hideous and fetal caricature of the rich universe of source material they had to work with. They had the Golden Goose in their hands and decided to strangle it and parade it’s corpse. It is founded on a flawed and completely broken premise: the creators simultaneously proclaim proudly that the show is not an adaptation and that they are creating their own story with the “Silver timeline” while also completely relying on and leeching the hard work and nuanced writing it would take to establish the universe and that was established by the original games. They have created an abomination that looks and sounds like Halo and insisting it isn’t the Halo you know, all the while stuffing the abomination with context and background from the games and completely skipping or omitting background in their own show. Here are 3 separate examples Captain Keyes death was displayed as a very emotional moment in the series. They haven’t described his motives or his mindset on much of anything by the time he dies in the show. The only bit of interesting character motive and personality for Keyes is shown in two brief scenes in the previous episode. It is painfully apparent that the showrunners are relying on the context of his character from the games to appeal for an emotional response, this is hypocritical. You cannot say that you are writing a whole new Keyes while also doing the absolute minimum to establish him as a show character and then expect an emotional response to his death because we knew him from the games. According to your logic they are two different people, and unluckily for you, they feel and look like 2 different people. All throughout this awful series we are hammered over the head with the idea that John is The Master Chief, the paragon of human achievement and the greatest hero of humanity. Everywhere anyone goes in this show his armor and title is plastered everywhere. He has hologram ads in the streets and posters with inspiring words inside military installations. At the same time you display a character whose feats in battle are no more impressive than any of the other Spartan IIs that are portrayed, in terms of skill and notability he is of the same caliber as the rest of the Spartans, not noteworthy in the slightest. On the worst side of things you display a soldier who questions authority, is repeatedly insubordinate to the point of treason, and struggles to regulate his emotions, he conducts himself as a child. The man is an absolute liability, how on earth is this man child given the amount of praise and respect he is? Here we are again with them simultaneously saying they are portraying a different Master Chief while also stealing his status and context with none of the work or context to justify portraying him as such, it is pitiful and laughable. The Halo Ring itself. Never in the series has the origin, function, or danger of the Halo Ring been explained, either in a Covenant context or human context. They haven’t even landed or seen a Halo proper until Ep 7 of Season 2. And yet all through season II we have had The Covenant, ONI, Halsey, Cortana, and Master Chief all know what a Halo ring is, what it does, and “know” from DNA memory how it works. What the actual fetch. They are relying on our understanding from the games without showing an ounce of research or groundwork from people like Halsey to uncover their secrets. It is absolutely disgusting how unbelievably lazy the storytelling is.
"THE COVENANT DIDNT TAKE OUR ARMOR" PREACH
exactly, ackerson doing that killed Vannak and doomed Reach.
Bad writers and people who don’t know the lore took their armor
Ackerson and ONI thought that there was a 99% chance they wouldn't survive without their armor. It goes back Keyes's speech. It's not the armor, it's the warrior inside of the armor that matters.

thats what she was forced to become since the age of 6 they brainwashed them a lot to become like this
