Is this the quote you are talking about. “Everyone who spoke with Variety, actually, cited Halo’s expansive mythology as the factor that differentiated the series from other video game fare and made it so attractive as source material for event-size television. Many of the show’s lead creatives spent several days at 343’s headquarters outside Seattle just to be able to learn about it. “We didn’t look at the game,” says Season 1 showrunner Steven Kane (“The Last Ship”). “We didn’t talk about the game. We talked about the characters and the world. So I never felt limited by it being a game.”
Just saying from where this time-line is starting there's a better chance that he might very well be that one brute chieftain that you kill as the arbiter I forgot his name it's like tartarsauce or something
It would be awesome if they chose to keep Master Chief's helmet on and do the face reveal at the finale after his helmet visor gets cracked and then when Cortana takes over she would put the helmet back on.
Considering the Halo installation itself only shows up in dreams. I at least thought the season would end with them finding the installation, but my guess is they're going to drag it out three more seasons before then.
Disagree. I loved the show. I’ve read the books and love the lore. The story in the show goes deep into the characters development and MC hasn’t even got to the Halo yet! Game fans are just impatient and want to watch something that they can relate to and this is not it. Can’t wait for Season 2.
Also something I missed was lore accuracy, quality story telling, the human covenant war and a desperate struggle for the survival of humanity, and the fucking Halo soundtrack
As a Halo fan, I have played all the games and read most of the books, almost all. I wish the show held closer to the games and books but have enjoyed it and all its referencing. Still holding out hope that season two will pull closer to the fabulous canon already built for Halo. There’s decades of stories to tell.
@@chewy2087 When people are coming back to things that disappoint them so much, hoping against all evidence that if they stick around maybe, possibly, it will be better, that sounds like it's an issue in their mind.
My first laugh, was this exactly. My second laugh…no wait, what would have been my second laugh was cut off by my jaw hitting the floor seeing a jackal, shield AND ENERGY SWORD IN HAND????? cutting through what I presume to be UNSC marines. I’m sorry, I must have missed that in the games……
Why does the show imply that Master Chief died and that Cortana is essentially piloting a corpse? That would mean that all of in game dialogue between the Master Chief and Cortana is just Cortana just talking to herself
I also found it a little degrading to MC that he couldn't finish the job without Cortana driving, but they cleverly wrote in a scenario where MC couldn't touch the artifact without Cortana. Not satisfying, but technically logical. Although it's hard to argue that the result isn't stupid, when Cortana's saving grace was having their Condor swoop in and save the day, something she could have done ALL ALONG. But maybe if you think of it like Knight Rider, Cortana is the car.
@@reytabequero2084 Without her, what else would have kickstarted John's character arc? She's the main reason John started changing from his ordinary self.
Why can't we just enjoy the story unfold? Kwan Ha will probably be involved with reviving MC's consciousness in Season 2. It's likely he won't be quite the same until the end of the whole series.
They never implied this. They assumed chief would die upon cortana taking complete control. Either cortana decided not to kill him or he just cant be killed cause hes chief lol
Missed? They got the visual details mostly in the books and games right but the cringe CBS/CW-esque writing? Oh boy, that's something I'll never unsee.
I stopped watching after episode 4. The story drags slow, with Kwan story being so not needed to be included, let alone how the actress act is so cringy. Overall i am just dissapointed with how the story developed
I didn't miss any small details. I missed ALL the details after I heard the writers didn't care about game lore. I didn't watch it and I have no regrets.
I really dig this show, the combat is awesome and brutal, silver team is cool and interesting, Halsey is way more integrated into the story and has a valid existence, Cortana is fleshed out more yet also more mysterious.. and she is taken back to basics in a satisfying away, getting away from the increasingly overwritten Cortana stuff we've gotten since Halo 4... The actors are all attractive.. some of the CGI and effects are as good as TV can possibly get.. like I get that some of the plot is annoying, and characters are disappointing (Jacob Keyes for me, I do not like the new actor who always has his mouth open and looks like he goes for the cupcakes too often).. and the music not quite hitting the right notes so to speak.. but the outright hatred is unwarranted.. this show is a good time!
Totally agree with you. I enjoyed the show and was relieved it was not following the Games path as the gaming fans would have still complained. What most people are missing is the expansion in the character development and lore and the series hasn’t even landed on the Halo yet!
I agree, in that for me there was a few important points missed, such as the music, and Avery Johnson. But overall I liked it and I would continue to watch it if it wasn't over already D: I feel like we needed a tenth episode.
I agree with you. I liked the first season -- have my criticisms but not enough to flood the socials -- but S2 has some heavy lifting to do. I choose to be optimistic and am excited about what's next.
You know what I didn't fail to notice? That the Halo TV show was complete and total trash. It deserves to be forgotten and never referenced by anyone ever again.
Disappointment. Is like watching a bad telenovela. they didn't use the original lore/story. and what they went with had No consistency, one episode is the insurrection, the next is the covenant, the war, gotta win the war. i enjoyed more how the movie Forward Unto Dawn was told, felt more professional. if they wish to make this big, they need better writers and NO more butt cheeks, we went years not seeing anything from MC to now seeing his butt cheeks. too much! what's next T bag the enemy? Makee almost caught some of that action. next season will be about MC being in love with Makee but they can't be together because of their families and Makee's family (covenant) don't approve of MC. and they have to love each other in secrete. 😂
Ok fine, based on sheer attention to detail I give the show a pass. I still want Avery Johnson. And the Halo 2 theme. Just hire Martin O'Donnell. And put Joseph Staten on the writing staff; I know he works there.
I didn't miss how terrible this show was. And what a shame cuz I absolutely loved the first 3 games and didn't at all foresee how bad they would fuck it up or how terrible it would be. For shame. They should've just made a show portraying the events that took place in the games.
I love the show and think it is great. Commented this on on of Paramount’s videos. Paramount, you might as well turn the comment section off. This is a game franchise that is two decades old, and most the haters have literally spent their entire life in front of a TV or monitor, with a keyboard or controller masturbating in Dorito dust and sticky Mountain Dew fingers. The only thing they know is everything in between the cut scenes in the game. Everything they have to say about the show is a string of thought ending clichés. Yes, most of them are entitled white kids who’s parents bought an Xbox instead of spending time with her egregiously shitty kids. Most of which, are the vitriolic mentally ill troll commenters. To the show, production staff, and the actors, you have done an outstanding job. Please do not let these meat sacks with pimple pus for brains and a $40 razor keyboard or a shattered iPhone bring you down. Their brains are geared way past anything that could be considered a critical thought that would invite real discourse about the show. Please don’t listen to them. Keep diving into the books, and bring the lore to the screen. I wish you many more seasons.
This is like saying we are going to make harry potter movies but existing lore is boring let make Harry weld a magic gun instead. If you just want aesthetic of the franchise but decided to f*ck up every existing lore. Just go create another franchise. Not tainting the existing one.
The only thing I missed was the steaming pile of garbage in the background of every shot. They could not a have done a worse job if they tried. I blame everything on the writers and I feel so bad for anyone else who worked on the show such as actors, visual effects artists. All of their hard work went down the drain all because the writers thought they new best. If they wanted to make this story they should have made a whole new show.
i think halo is kazonkers ... the big dudes with those gravity hammers, they need 10 inch action figures from jazware. as a creative writer, i am truly inspired by halo, not knowing much aside from the fact it was a poular video game: i have now become an avid collector of the spartan series and do hope to check out the series on paramount.
even with the small details missed the nature of the game charactor vs moovie charactor makes room for a second master cheif and the back story of this john being a secondary and not the original cheif,, the voice never fit and behaviors never fit to the one liner quips of the original vs chatter box moovie john ,,,the issue with humanities natural rebelions to odd science aka the original cheif more "luckey" because it was not acheived by bizare sciences that would violate human standards and rights it also makes room to understanding robotics as the safer route of a smarter master cheif program also not phazed by the relationship status of a human tricked into romantical needs this an advantage of the original cheif that aint distracted by emotional issues and not acheived by breaking the human standards of what is right and wrong it also makes the main cheif less controlable by lack of soldjer abuse and programing that cant be controled by cortana while she could be carried by the main cheif suit but the original charactor of the main cheif is not based on the secondary john stand in recreation story of halsey all this makes more mystical the origins of the original master john cheif because he never needs to remoove a helm keeps his minimal speech matches the voice better allows for the extra largeness explains the blow up suicidal no holds barrred and reasurecteble case to returning after a blow up ,,,much better than a violated contaminated controlable human vulnerablilty and much more sane aproach than the halsey violations this where the actual cheif is more advanced than the violated human soldjer in a suit pissed off at its makers haveing insane emotional issues but a robot still driven by an actual master cheif human that aint distracted by emotional ties and more reason to why the actual cheif spooks the crap out of both sides because its so much deeper than a mere human contaminable by emotional draw backs spookey because neither side could beat him and no original beginings revealed makes less strings to pull any kinda weakness advantage but unbeatable suicidaly free to bolder heroics without a second of hesatation only cheers if he happens to be on your side and more to why the aliens call him demon and not just a "wet pulse" human but all this mystery adds to why hes not phazed in wanting the same over power control of others and more to the secrecey of his program that aint bound to the ties of the draw back of bound to unsc rules or those of any aliens but uncontroled except by his own choices much more "luckey" than the abused soldjer and why its more helpfull to the standard soldjers only luckey that he has been on their side because they couldnt control this one like the others that needed an original master cheif not just a cortana driven suit of a dead mans casket//and now ive played guardians and i gota say too video over cut takeing away from actualy doing the things in the videos plus past build ups in other halo didnt count so going in weak ass hell so fast on gun run outs sucked constant drop out recharge and one hit knock downs sucked vs built up tuffness,,, that knock ya down and start weakest always sucks with force change out of weapons sucks too,, i dont mind haveing the tuffest over powered weapon if it becomes the only gun you need and climbing advance means you can get into the teleport features in limitless amo banks plus teleporting amo means varient potencey out of the one barrel so you could dial in the amo potencey gaudians felt like backward teck to weaker weapons based on old junk liked some of the new grapfic details but so short me and my girl got it done in a few hours vs multiple hours of constant play in older versions so the bigest time was in reviven and dozens of respawns instead of normal kick ass and those was on "normal and easey" vs steady play many hours and many world levels to figure out so guardians was tiny and suckey backward as if you never played any other halo but all the others were better and counted past play in soldjer status so original play times and quality of kick ass was better too than the 5 while its like only one step compared to the multi climb in 3 and 4 so not exactly happy or satified with a minimized john version that felt as much as the secondary weaker john attempt to mimic the original but it all seems to add to the story of the temp stand in trying to take credit for the original and keep aliens from looking for the original buying time to use the title in spooking the aliens while unaware of where the original master came from or how many back up models exhisted but matching the nature of the game as a "driven robot" and why cheifs are tuffer than "wet pulse" human soldjers but packed with teck means tuffer bigger and braver phazed by less and being sexless as a robot means less romantical tricks of distraction and thats the difference in humanized version of what the master cheif originaly was,, better than the comon "wet pulse" human suffering mental backstory issues but naturaly coldhearted heroics steadily focused still a human beyond the machine but teck that neither halsey or aliens can hack because they dont have a clue of its system only access to what the cheif allows makes for the better story of why its so much more different biger tuffer smarter and luckier than abused soldjers that needed his infiltrational help
Halo 3 was the first Halo I ever played. I was in 5th grade. It was the main reason why I switched from PlayStation to Xbox. I had a friend at the time who had Halo 2 and seeing chief pummel the Prophet has always stuck with me as a core Master Chief moment. It inspired me to learn more about the story and even find a way to play Combat Evolved. ODST has grown on me over the years and Reach ranks beside 3 for me. Halo Wars, and parts of MCC rang of nostalgia but this.. this ain’t it. I haven’t watched a single episode. None of this seems appealing. Chief’s face reveal was disappointing, even a younger John doesn’t have that crisp “To give the Covenant back their bomb.” sound to it. And losing his virginity? Yikes. Talk about character assassination. Just the uproar making waves online is enough to make any diehard Halo fan readjust how they respond to the franchise and it’s creators.
bungee literally designed the games so that the player is chief and in the helmet, if people are really upset about him laying pipe then i think theyve just exposed themselves as virgins
So nice to see a video about the series that is positive for a change. The amount of criticism videos I've seen and some of the arguments made are ridiculous. Whether it be helmets being taken off, diversity pushes (which yes, is annoying), or even just how good looking the guy playing Master Chief is. So many of which arguments can actually be made against the games and the Forward unto Dawn movie too. There's plenty of inconsistency. Yes, I think it has some definite flaws in the series and certainly made too much out of Kwan-ha considering they only made 9 episodes. But it's not bad by any means. People getting angry because it didn't stay perfectly the same to the game is just stupid. They said so before making it that it would be different and it's clearly trying to bring a new audience in, which in turn made it a more generic sci fi show (which is both good and bad in different ways). The fact they merged the timelines of insurrectionists and the covenant war actually turned out to be a really good thing imo. But people were too busy complaining about Chief showing his face in episode one to a random teenager (even though it makes sense as he's just been affected by the artifact and she's clearly a mouthy teenager type - and amazingly enough, mouthy teenagers like to lecture people on what they think is right or wrong; even to Master Chief). I'd love to make a proper video defending the series while still criticising the bits I think are bad, but no doubt it would take ages and would just be greeted with hate.
I never played the games, but i enjoyed the show. I understand why ppl are mad, i would be too if the fucked up my favorite game (mass effect), but i would try to enjoy it, specially if they are faithful about most of the stuff. When i see ppl complaining about MC helmet, all i see is "oh, what happened to my favorite, amazing MALE character, with no face ( that i can imagine myself inside that helmet)?". I do agree thou that sex scenes are useless and they could focus more on combat. An kuwan ha is really annoying lol
Dude as a fan of the game since the og halo I got to say I love the show only thing I had to do is realize only reason storytelling points and small difference were mad is due to the fact games don’t translate into movies very well and artistically they just have to make changes but I love it
Great job. Shocked you didn’t mention it was in fact Atriox wielding his more distinctive hammer. But hey there’s a lot and you had some very deep details I had no idea about. Great job And wow so much toxicity in the comments. Literally your complaining about a show you probably didn’t watch to someone who independently made a deep dive of Easter eggs. There is no purpose for those comments except to spread negativity. Ew
I mean I know to never read the comments but I was curious if others mentioned more Easter eggs, you know a constructive comment. I’m in shock how many comments are saying BOTH that the show(not this TH-cam video) sucks AND that they never even watched it. I’m confident they have been eating rocks for a while now
I never played the games or read either the comics or books but I went into the series curious and liked it. I also went into it expecting the adaptation to be different from the games, which I am told it is. Something I embraced as a DOOM and fan of animes like Guyver, Ghost in the Shell, and Battle Angel Alita which have also gotten live-action adaptations.
A lot of these details weren't missed by those who actually read and played the games that is Halo. This video is good, but the show was still trash for what paramount did.
What did you think of the first season of "Halo"?
Removing the helment and love scene make this a massive dissapointment.
Loved it
Also u missed the parallel between the arbiter and meekee
It was good.
@@arnoldp3740 i know about that but dont wanna think about that parallel considering e7 😔 disappointment of a series
Sadly most of us didn't miss these details.
Of course looper would love this show
The biggest detail we missed was that this show wasn’t created the “fans of the halo games”
Quoted from Halo showrunner Steven Kane
Is this the quote you are talking about. “Everyone who spoke with Variety, actually, cited Halo’s expansive mythology as the factor that differentiated the series from other video game fare and made it so attractive as source material for event-size television. Many of the show’s lead creatives spent several days at 343’s headquarters outside Seattle just to be able to learn about it.
“We didn’t look at the game,” says Season 1 showrunner Steven Kane (“The Last Ship”). “We didn’t talk about the game. We talked about the characters and the world. So I never felt limited by it being a game.”
You mentioned "Brute Chieftain" twice and failed to mention that he is Atriox
I noticed that as well. I had the captions on and it said something like "Atriox grunts" and I was like, well shit.
Lol what makes you think he is atriox?
Just saying from where this time-line is starting there's a better chance that he might very well be that one brute chieftain that you kill as the arbiter I forgot his name it's like tartarsauce or something
@@isaacartiaga867 Subtitles literally said Atriox
I haven't gotten to that point in the video yet I just figured because he's killed off so quickly that he couldn't be atriox lol
It would be awesome if they chose to keep Master Chief's helmet on and do the face reveal at the finale after his helmet visor gets cracked and then when Cortana takes over she would put the helmet back on.
Also avoiding the "making jhon human faster", but nope, we had a love scene, like this is greys anatomies or 50 shades of jhon.
Damn I missed the whole season. Guess it’s best I just go back and play the games the way god intended
A neat little detail: The name "Halo" without it you might not even know it is a TV show connected to the Halo games and books.
Considering the Halo installation itself only shows up in dreams. I at least thought the season would end with them finding the installation, but my guess is they're going to drag it out three more seasons before then.

How is it “way off”? Everything they said was accurate.
They should have kept his 117 gear on and allowed the original voice actor to do the show
you mean like in the other attempted halo media which all flopped?
@@bradarnold3544 The others flopped because of script and money, its not cheap to make something like this
@@bradarnold3544 Two words: Darth Vader. Good acting can be done with a helmet on.
Like vader
I love the Halo TV series. Never the played the games so the tv series was an amazing way to get into HALO!
Also something I missed was lore accuracy, quality story telling, the human covenant war and a desperate struggle for the survival of humanity, and the fucking Halo soundtrack
No mention that Madrigal is taken from the earlier Bungie game Myth? For shame!
Wow sweet detail thanks
I would have prefer the show pay as much 'tribute' as humanly possible.
Yup, looks like I missed all of it... I mean all of it!
cant miss any details if you dodge the whole thing.

Yea the only really bad part was Kwans messy story
What’s been covered in the series has mostly been pre Halo (1) game narrative.

You sure about that? How much did they pay you?
So bad...never would I imagine they would have a master Chief that talks so much, and is never in his suit😢

I missed and will miss everything from this show.
Wow, such an interesting and edgy person.
Lmao I missed the entire season. After episode one I said the fuck nope.
There is an Energy Dagger... first seen in Halo: Reach. Thats what the Jackals are using
Disappointed on Cortina. I was hoping she would show more skin like in the games!
Ffs
"Small details you missed in Halo season 1"
Yeah. All of them, because we turned the show off two episodes in lol.
I’m surprised he didn’t mention how atriox is that brute chieftain in the show
If you have subtitles on, they name one of the brutes atriox

All of their hard work went down the drain all because the writers thought they new best. If they wanted to make this story they should have made a whole new show.
the biggest missed detail is how much this tv show was nothing like HALO. this tv show is a joke and needs to be cancelled
Who wrote this script, Paramount?? 😂😂😂 Show followed Halo lore 😂😂
i think halo is kazonkers ... the big dudes with those gravity hammers, they need 10 inch action figures from jazware. as a creative writer, i am truly inspired by halo, not knowing much aside from the fact it was a poular video game: i have now become an avid collector of the spartan series and do hope to check out the series on paramount.
Watched about ten minutes of the first episode and it was already Hot Garbage. Im not even talking about the Helmet.
even with the small details missed the nature of the game charactor vs moovie charactor makes room for a second master cheif and the back story of this john being a secondary and not the original cheif,, the voice never fit and behaviors never fit to the one liner quips of the original vs chatter box moovie john ,,,the issue with humanities natural rebelions to odd science aka the original cheif more "luckey" because it was not acheived by bizare sciences that would violate human standards and rights it also makes room to understanding robotics as the safer route of a smarter master cheif program also not phazed by the relationship status of a human tricked into romantical needs this an advantage of the original cheif that aint distracted by emotional issues and not acheived by breaking the human standards of what is right and wrong it also makes the main cheif less controlable by lack of soldjer abuse and programing that cant be controled by cortana while she could be carried by the main cheif suit but the original charactor of the main cheif is not based on the secondary john stand in recreation story of halsey all this makes more mystical the origins of the original master john cheif because he never needs to remoove a helm keeps his minimal speech matches the voice better allows for the extra largeness explains the blow up suicidal no holds barrred and reasurecteble case to returning after a blow up ,,,much better than a violated contaminated controlable human vulnerablilty and much more sane aproach than the halsey violations this where the actual cheif is more advanced than the violated human soldjer in a suit pissed off at its makers haveing insane emotional issues but a robot still driven by an actual master cheif human that aint distracted by emotional ties and more reason to why the actual cheif spooks the crap out of both sides because its so much deeper than a mere human contaminable by emotional draw backs spookey because neither side could beat him and no original beginings revealed makes less strings to pull any kinda weakness advantage but unbeatable suicidaly free to bolder heroics without a second of hesatation only cheers if he happens to be on your side and more to why the aliens call him demon and not just a "wet pulse" human but all this mystery adds to why hes not phazed in wanting the same over power control of others and more to the secrecey of his program that aint bound to the ties of the draw back of bound to unsc rules or those of any aliens but uncontroled except by his own choices much more "luckey" than the abused soldjer and why its more helpfull to the standard soldjers only luckey that he has been on their side because they couldnt control this one like the others that needed an original master cheif not just a cortana driven suit of a dead mans casket//and now ive played guardians and i gota say too video over cut takeing away from actualy doing the things in the videos plus past build ups in other halo didnt count so going in weak ass hell so fast on gun run outs sucked constant drop out recharge and one hit knock downs sucked vs built up tuffness,,, that knock ya down and start weakest always sucks with force change out of weapons sucks too,, i dont mind haveing the tuffest over powered weapon if it becomes the only gun you need and climbing advance means you can get into the teleport features in limitless amo banks plus teleporting amo means varient potencey out of the one barrel so you could dial in the amo potencey gaudians felt like backward teck to weaker weapons based on old junk liked some of the new grapfic details but so short me and my girl got it done in a few hours vs multiple hours of constant play in older versions so the bigest time was in reviven and dozens of respawns instead of normal kick ass and those was on "normal and easey" vs steady play many hours and many world levels to figure out so guardians was tiny and suckey backward as if you never played any other halo but all the others were better and counted past play in soldjer status so original play times and quality of kick ass was better too than the 5 while its like only one step compared to the multi climb in 3 and 4 so not exactly happy or satified with a minimized john version that felt as much as the secondary weaker john attempt to mimic the original but it all seems to add to the story of the temp stand in trying to take credit for the original and keep aliens from looking for the original buying time to use the title in spooking the aliens while unaware of where the original master came from or how many back up models exhisted but matching the nature of the game as a "driven robot" and why cheifs are tuffer than "wet pulse" human soldjers but packed with teck means tuffer bigger and braver phazed by less and being sexless as a robot means less romantical tricks of distraction and thats the difference in humanized version of what the master cheif originaly was,, better than the comon "wet pulse" human suffering mental backstory issues but naturaly coldhearted heroics steadily focused still a human beyond the machine but teck that neither halsey or aliens can hack because they dont have a clue of its system only access to what the cheif allows makes for the better story of why its so much more different biger tuffer smarter and luckier than abused soldjers that needed his infiltrational help
Soft Disclosure
Halo 3 was the first Halo I ever played. I was in 5th grade. It was the main reason why I switched from PlayStation to Xbox. I had a friend at the time who had Halo 2 and seeing chief pummel the Prophet has always stuck with me as a core Master Chief moment. It inspired me to learn more about the story and even find a way to play Combat Evolved. ODST has grown on me over the years and Reach ranks beside 3 for me. Halo Wars, and parts of MCC rang of nostalgia but this.. this ain’t it. I haven’t watched a single episode. None of this seems appealing. Chief’s face reveal was disappointing, even a younger John doesn’t have that crisp “To give the Covenant back their bomb.” sound to it. And losing his virginity? Yikes. Talk about character assassination. Just the uproar making waves online is enough to make any diehard Halo fan readjust how they respond to the franchise and it’s creators.
bungee literally designed the games so that the player is chief and in the helmet, if people are really upset about him laying pipe then i think theyve just exposed themselves as virgins
So nice to see a video about the series that is positive for a change. The amount of criticism videos I've seen and some of the arguments made are ridiculous. Whether it be helmets being taken off, diversity pushes (which yes, is annoying), or even just how good looking the guy playing Master Chief is. So many of which arguments can actually be made against the games and the Forward unto Dawn movie too. There's plenty of inconsistency.
Yes, I think it has some definite flaws in the series and certainly made too much out of Kwan-ha considering they only made 9 episodes. But it's not bad by any means. People getting angry because it didn't stay perfectly the same to the game is just stupid. They said so before making it that it would be different and it's clearly trying to bring a new audience in, which in turn made it a more generic sci fi show (which is both good and bad in different ways). The fact they merged the timelines of insurrectionists and the covenant war actually turned out to be a really good thing imo. But people were too busy complaining about Chief showing his face in episode one to a random teenager (even though it makes sense as he's just been affected by the artifact and she's clearly a mouthy teenager type - and amazingly enough, mouthy teenagers like to lecture people on what they think is right or wrong; even to Master Chief).
I'd love to make a proper video defending the series while still criticising the bits I think are bad, but no doubt it would take ages and would just be greeted with hate.
I never played the games, but i enjoyed the show. I understand why ppl are mad, i would be too if the fucked up my favorite game (mass effect), but i would try to enjoy it, specially if they are faithful about most of the stuff. When i see ppl complaining about MC helmet, all i see is "oh, what happened to my favorite, amazing MALE character, with no face ( that i can imagine myself inside that helmet)?". I do agree thou that sex scenes are useless and they could focus more on combat. An kuwan ha is really annoying lol
Dude as a fan of the game since the og halo I got to say I love the show only thing I had to do is realize only reason storytelling points and small difference were mad is due to the fact games don’t translate into movies very well and artistically they just have to make changes but I love it
How you gonna make a video telling us stuff we missed when you yourself missed like tons of things.
Great job. Shocked you didn’t mention it was in fact Atriox wielding his more distinctive hammer. But hey there’s a lot and you had some very deep details I had no idea about. Great job
And wow so much toxicity in the comments. Literally your complaining about a show you probably didn’t watch to someone who independently made a deep dive of Easter eggs. There is no purpose for those comments except to spread negativity.
Ew
all these nerds complaining about the adaptation should kick rocks
I mean I know to never read the comments but I was curious if others mentioned more Easter eggs, you know a constructive comment.
I’m in shock how many comments are saying BOTH that the show(not this TH-cam video) sucks AND that they never even watched it.
I’m confident they have been eating rocks for a while now
I never played the games or read either the comics or books but I went into the series curious and liked it. I also went into it expecting the adaptation to be different from the games, which I am told it is. Something I embraced as a DOOM and fan of animes like Guyver, Ghost in the Shell, and Battle Angel Alita which have also gotten live-action adaptations.
Smoke weed everyday
I missed every single detail, i don't watch this sh*tshow
I missed that this show sucked
I wish I missed the entire series. Worst adaptation ever to hit TV screen. Absolute vomit of a show.
Only ps fans like this show.
A lot of these details weren't missed by those who actually read and played the games that is Halo. This video is good, but the show was still trash for what paramount did.
This show is awful
tried, really tried to watch this but it went way too woke for me to tolerate.
